Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst technology, specifically relating to a propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating and its preparation method, and the application of the catalyst in propane dehydrogenation to propylene. Background Technology
[0002] Strongly endothermic reactions are widespread in many important chemical processes. In strongly endothermic reactions such as dehydrogenation of low-carbon alkanes and dry reforming of methane, continuous and timely energy supply is required to maintain high-temperature reaction conditions, thereby achieving economically feasible conversion rates. Therefore, energy supply efficiency plays a crucial role in ensuring reaction efficiency. Traditional heating typically utilizes the heat generated by the combustion of fossil fuels to heat the reactor. Heat is gradually transferred to the inner catalyst bed through radiation and conduction, first heating the outer wall of the reactor. This method has inherent drawbacks such as heat transfer lag, large temperature gradients, and low energy utilization, severely restricting the efficient execution of strongly endothermic reactions. Therefore, how to timely supply energy to the active sites of strongly endothermic reactions to overcome the heat transfer bottleneck and improve reaction efficiency has become a key challenge that urgently needs to be addressed in the chemical industry.
[0003] In recent years, novel heating systems such as in-situ resistance heating, microwave heating, electromagnetic induction heating, and photothermal synergy have been widely reported, providing new ideas for powering strongly endothermic reactions. Among them, in-situ resistance heating technology can directly supply energy to the catalyst, and its advantages such as precise heating, low energy consumption, and fast temperature response have attracted widespread attention. Furthermore, during in-situ resistance heating, the current flowing through the catalyst simultaneously introduces an electric field effect, which affects the catalytic reaction performance and its mechanism of action. Currently, researchers have conducted extensive research on the performance enhancement mechanism of strongly endothermic reactions through in-situ resistance heating, revealing that reaction performance can be enhanced by increasing the heating rate, altering the adsorption / desorption intensity of reactants / products, promoting the hopping of surface protons, and regulating surface oxygen species. However, how to construct a suitable in-situ resistance heating system remains a core research challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In response to the above situation, the inventors of this invention have discovered that adjusting the resistance, pore structure, and metal-support interaction of the substrate material can be the main direction for regulating the thermal and electric fields and improving the catalytic activity of the catalyst. Based on this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating, its preparation method, and its application. This catalyst exhibits high activity and excellent propylene selectivity in the propane dehydrogenation reaction catalyzed by in-situ Joule heating, and the catalytic system achieves high propylene yield with low energy consumption.
[0005] A first aspect of the present invention provides a propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating, the catalyst comprising a conductive foam substrate and a catalyst layer coated on the substrate, the catalyst layer comprising a composite metal oxide support Mg(M)(Al)O and an active center intermetallic compound PtM dispersed on the support, wherein M in the support and the active center is Zn, In, Ga or Y.
[0006] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-described propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating, the method comprising the following steps: 1) Prepare hydrotalcite precursor MgAlM-LDHs by impregnating the hydrotalcite precursor with Pt precursor solution to obtain the precursor of the catalyst layer; 2) The precursor slurry of the catalyst layer is coated onto the substrate to obtain the catalyst precursor; 3) The precursor of the catalyst is calcined and reduced to obtain the catalyst.
[0007] The third aspect of the present invention provides the application of the above-described propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating in the production of propylene from propane dehydrogenation, wherein the energy supply for propane dehydrogenation is in-situ Joule heating.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: In the catalyst of this invention, the foam substrate possesses both semiconductor and conductor properties, enabling rapid heating with the application of a weak current, thus providing a highly efficient thermal response guarantee for the propane dehydrogenation reaction. Simultaneously, the foam substrate exhibits a macroporous structure, providing abundant attachment sites for the precursor of the catalyst layer, thereby promoting the formation of a tightly bonded interface structure between the foam substrate and the catalyst layer. This structural design allows for the creation of a localized high-temperature environment in the catalytic microregion, significantly enhancing the dehydrogenation activity of the catalyst. Furthermore, when current flows through the catalyst, in addition to constructing the thermal field required for the reaction, an electric field is simultaneously introduced, further enhancing the dehydrogenation activity through a thermo-electric synergistic effect. It is noteworthy that M in the composite metal oxide support... Existing in a monodisperse form, this morphology can effectively anchor the intermetallic compound PtM, significantly suppressing the aggregation of active sites, thereby greatly improving the structural stability of the catalyst.
[0009] Other features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Figure 1 The image shows the XRD pattern of the catalyst prepared in Example 1 of this invention. Detailed Implementation
[0011] The following provides a detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative and explanatory purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0012] According to a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating, the catalyst comprising a conductive foam substrate and a catalyst layer coated on the substrate, said catalyst layer comprising a composite metal oxide support Mg(M)(Al)O and an active center intermetallic compound PtM dispersed on the support, wherein M in the support and the active center is Zn, In, Ga or Y.
[0013] In this invention, the substrate can be foamed silicon carbide, foamed carbon, foamed copper, or foamed aluminum. The porosity of the substrate can be 30-120 ppi, preferably 50-120 ppi, and more preferably 90 ppi. The shape of the foam substrate can be selected as needed, for example, it can be a cylinder with a diameter of 6-12 mm and a length of 10-50 mm, preferably a cylinder with a diameter of 8 mm and a length of 20 mm.
[0014] According to the present invention, the content of Pt can be 0.1-0.5 wt%, preferably 0.3 wt%, based on the total weight of the catalyst, and the content of M can be 0.1-10 wt%, preferably 3-8 wt%, more preferably 4 wt%.
[0015] In this invention, the particle size of the intermetallic compound PtM can be 0.5-3 nm.
[0016] According to a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-described propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating, the method comprising the following steps: 1) Prepare hydrotalcite precursor MgAlM-LDHs by impregnating the hydrotalcite precursor with Pt precursor solution to obtain the precursor of the catalyst layer; 2) The precursor slurry of the catalyst layer is coated onto the substrate to obtain the catalyst precursor; 3) The precursor of the catalyst is calcined and reduced to obtain the catalyst.
[0017] This invention employs a preparation process of "first loading Pt onto hydrotalcite, and then coating the Pt-loaded hydrotalcite onto a foam substrate." By utilizing the inherent high specific surface area of hydrotalcite and the monodisperse additive M, efficient dispersion of the PtM active component can be achieved, thereby forming a uniformly structured catalyst precursor. After the precursor is loaded onto the foam substrate through coating, it can form a stable bond with the substrate, significantly improving the catalyst's loading stability and structural integrity.
[0018] In step 1) of this invention, the Pt precursor solution can be loaded using the initial wet impregnation method, with the mixture being shaken evenly during the impregnation process, and then dried at 100-130℃ for 1-5 hours to obtain the precursor of the catalyst layer.
[0019] According to the present invention, in step 2), the coating is carried out by spin coating. While the substrate is rotating, the precursor slurry of the catalyst layer is dropped onto the substrate surface to form a thin film layer, and then dried to obtain the catalyst precursor.
[0020] Specifically, the spin coating method includes: first, fixing the foam substrate on the vacuum adsorption rotating stage of a spin coater, ensuring the substrate is centered and stable; then, adding a Pt-loaded hydrotalcite precursor solution dropwise onto the surface of the foam substrate; starting the equipment to make the substrate rotate at high speed with the rotating stage, using centrifugal force to rapidly spread and uniformly adhere the precursor solution on the substrate surface, while excess solution is thrown off under centrifugal force, ultimately forming a uniform thin film layer on the substrate surface. The spin coating time is generally 20-40 minutes, followed by drying at a temperature of 100-130℃ for 1-3 hours.
[0021] In this invention, the calcination conditions include: calcination at 600-800℃ for 2-4 hours in a N2 atmosphere, with a heating rate of 1-10℃ / min, preferably 5℃ / min, and an N2 flow rate of 10-60mL / min, preferably 40mL / min.
[0022] According to the present invention, the conditions for reduction treatment include: reduction at 600-800°C for 2-4 h in an H2 atmosphere, with an H2 flow rate of 10-60 mL / min, preferably 40 mL / min.
[0023] According to a third aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the application of the above-described propane dehydrogenation catalyst suitable for in-situ Joule heating in the production of propylene from propane dehydrogenation, wherein the energy supply for propane dehydrogenation is in-situ Joule heating.
[0024] The in-situ Joule heating in this invention can be achieved using conventional methods in the prior art. For example, a specific voltage is applied to the conductive catalyst by a DC power supply. When current flows through the catalyst, its own resistance converts electrical energy into heat energy, thereby achieving rapid in-situ heating.
[0025] In this invention, the conditions for propane dehydrogenation can be conventionally selected according to existing technology. Preferably, the reaction temperature for propane dehydrogenation is 300-550℃, and the reaction pressure is atmospheric pressure.
[0026] According to the present invention, the reaction feed can be C3H8, Ar and H2, with a molar ratio of C3H8∶H2∶Ar = 2∶1∶4; the propane mass hourly space velocity is 2-50 h⁻¹. -1 The catalyst dosage is 0.01-0.3g.
