Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalytic purification of volatile organic compounds and nanocatalytic materials, and relates to a bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst for toluene oxidation, its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are key precursors to ozone (O3) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution in the atmosphere. Their emissions are widespread, covering multiple industrial sectors such as chemical, coating, and printing, posing serious threats to the ecological environment and human health. Catalytic oxidation technology, due to its outstanding advantages such as high purification efficiency, mild reaction conditions, and no secondary pollution, has become the mainstream technology for industrial VOCs treatment. The development of high-performance catalysts is the core key to the industrial application of this technology.

[0003] Among VOCs catalytic oxidation catalysts, noble metal catalysts (such as Pt, Pd, and Au-based catalysts) possess excellent low-temperature catalytic activity, but they suffer from resource scarcity, high cost, and susceptibility to Cl. - The inactivation due to poisoning by impurities such as sulfur (S) limits its large-scale industrial application. Transition metal oxides, due to their low cost, wide availability, and excellent redox properties, have become ideal alternatives to noble metal catalysts. Among them, Co3O4, with its unique spinel structure, efficient redox capabilities, and strong adsorption and activation of VOC molecules, has shown good application potential in the catalytic oxidation of VOCs such as toluene. However, unsupported or poorly dispersed Co3O4 nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration and sintering under high-temperature reaction conditions, leading to a decrease in active surface area, a reduction in oxygen vacancies, and a sharp decline in catalytic activity and stability.

[0004] To improve its dispersibility and thermal stability, Co3O4 is typically loaded onto supports with high specific surface area. Molecular sieve materials are considered ideal supports due to their high specific surface area, regular pore structure, good thermal stability, and shape-selective catalytic performance. However, the narrow channels (typically less than 2 nm) of traditional microporous molecular sieves severely restrict the internal diffusion of large molecular reactants such as toluene, generating significant mass transfer resistance and reducing the accessibility of active sites. Simultaneously, the limited pore space also restricts the high-dispersion loading of active components. Even with single-metal modification, high loading levels can easily lead to the aggregation of active components at the pore openings or outer surfaces, even clogging the pores. Introducing a second metal to construct a bimetallic system can alleviate this phenomenon to some extent and is expected to improve performance through synergistic effects, but it places higher demands on the loading method.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical challenges, existing research focuses on optimization in two main directions: first, modifying the molecular sieve support by constructing a hierarchical porous structure to improve mass transfer and increase loading sites; second, introducing a second metal component to build a synergistic interface with Co species to enhance intrinsic activity and stability. However, existing technologies still face significant bottlenecks: First, traditional loading methods such as impregnation struggle to achieve high dispersion of active components, especially bimetallic components. During drying, precursor salts migrate with the solvent and crystallize and accumulate on the outer surface of the support or at large pores. After calcination, these salts easily form large, poorly dispersed metal oxide particles, resulting in limited active interfaces and poor synergistic effects (Nature. 1997, 389, 827). Second, when introducing a second metal (such as Cu), the strong acidity of the precursor solution can easily disrupt the structure of the pre-loaded metal-organic framework (MOF) precursor, such as ZIF-67, thereby impairing the dispersion of cobalt species and the integrity of the catalytic system.

[0006] Therefore, how to accurately construct an efficient and synergistic bimetallic interface while achieving high dispersion and loading of active components, and avoid damage to the structure of the active phase during the preparation process, has become a core technical challenge that urgently needs to be overcome in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The first objective of this invention is to provide a bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst for toluene oxidation and its preparation method. This invention proposes an "interface engineering" design strategy, employing a "protective impregnation method" to precisely introduce a second metal species under mild conditions. This achieves the controllable construction of a highly dispersed and synergistic bimetallic interface, ultimately yielding a bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst with low-temperature catalytic activity, providing technical support for the efficient treatment of industrial VOCs.

[0008] The technical solution of this invention:

[0009] A bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst for toluene oxidation uses an alkali-etched modified hierarchical porous MFI-E molecular sieve as a support, and is loaded with active components of Co and a second metal. The Co support is dispersed on the support in the form of Co3O4 nanoparticles, with a loading of 4.0-10.0 wt%, preferably 5 wt%. The second metal forms a close bimetallic interface with Co, with a loading of 3.0-10.0 wt%, preferably 5 wt%.

[0010] The carrier is a B-MFI-E molecular sieve, a Si-MFI-E molecular sieve, or an Al-MFI-E molecular sieve.

[0011] The second metal is Cu, Ni, or Mn.

[0012] The mesopore volume of the alkaline-etched modified hierarchical B-MFI-E molecular sieve is 0.50 cm³. 3 / g, with an external specific surface area of ​​173 m² 2 / g.

[0013] A method for preparing a bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst for toluene oxidation involves introducing a second metal species using a "protective impregnation method," followed by heat treatment to obtain an M / Co / MFI-E supported bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst.

[0014] The steps include the following (taking M / Co / B-MFI-E molecular sieve catalyst as an example):

[0015] (1) Preparation of ZIF-67 / B-MFI-E precursor (Dalton Trans. 2024, 53, 5212): First, B-MFI molecular sieve was hydrothermally etched in an alkaline solution, washed, dried, and calcined to obtain B-MFI-E support; B-MFI-E support was ultrasonically dispersed in anhydrous ethanol, and cobalt source solution was added to obtain suspension A, which was ultrasonically centrifuged to obtain solid; the solid was redispersed in anhydrous ethanol, and ligand solution was added to obtain suspension B, which was ultrasonically centrifuged to obtain solid, and the obtained solid was dispersed in anhydrous ethanol, and ligand solution was added with stirring, followed by cobalt source solution with stirring to obtain suspension C, which was magnetically stirred, washed, and dried to obtain ZIF-67 / B-MFI-E precursor.

[0016] (2) Preparation of impregnation solution: Dissolve the second metal salt in anhydrous ethanol, stir and add ammonia water dropwise, adjust the pH of the solution to neutral, and prepare the metal ammonia complex impregnation solution;

[0017] (3) Preparation of catalyst: The ZIF-67 / B-MFI-E precursor was dispersed in a metal ammonia complex impregnation solution, stirred and impregnated, and calcined to obtain a bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst.

[0018] In step (1), the alkaline solution is a 0.4 mol / L tetrapropylammonium hydroxide aqueous solution; the cobalt source solution is a 0.12 mol / L cobalt nitrate hexahydrate ethanol solution; and the ligand solution is a 1.22 mol / L 2-methylimidazolium ethanol solution. The mass ratio of cobalt salt to carrier in suspension A is 3.5:1, and the molar ratio of ligand to cobalt salt in suspension A in suspension B is 10.1:1. The amounts of ligand solution and cobalt salt solution added to suspension C are the same as those added to suspension B.

[0019] In step (1), the ultrasonic dispersion time is 1 hour and the stirring growth time is 2 hours.

[0020] In step (2), the metal ammonia complex impregnation solution is a metal ammonia complex impregnation solution with a second metal concentration of 0.015-0.05 mol / L, preferably 0.025 mol / L; the second metal salt is a copper salt (copper nitrate trihydrate, copper acetate), a nickel salt (nickel nitrate hexahydrate, nickel acetate) or a manganese salt (manganese nitrate hexahydrate, manganese levulinate).

[0021] In step (3), the stirring and soaking time is 2-12 hours, with the preferred soaking time being 2 hours.

[0022] In step (3), the calcination temperature is 350-500 ℃, the calcination time is 2-4 hours, and the heating rate is 1-5 ℃ / min; preferably, the calcination temperature is 400 ℃, the calcination time is 3 hours, and the heating rate is 3 ℃ / min.

[0023] An application of the bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst prepared by the above method in the oxidation of toluene utilizes the close contact between Co supported on the surface of the bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst and a second metal to form a bimetallic interface. The reaction is carried out at a temperature of 200-300℃ and a space velocity of 30000-90000 mL·g. -1 ·h -1 The experiment was conducted under the following conditions: toluene concentration of 500-2000 ppm, O2 concentration of 10-25 vol%, and N2 balance gas.

[0024] The bimetallic molecular sieve catalyst achieved a toluene conversion rate of over 90% at 249 °C. It has advantages such as high catalytic activity, simple preparation method, and low cost, and can be used in industrial and environmental remediation fields.

[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0026] (1) Precise and controllable construction of bimetallic interface: By adopting the "protective impregnation" strategy, an appropriate amount of ammonia water is added to adjust the pH value of the solution to neutral, and a second metal ammonia complex impregnation solution is prepared to create a mild environment, avoid the acidic precursor from destroying the dispersion of Co species, and achieve close contact between Co species and the second metal species to form a strongly interacting bimetallic interface.

[0027] (2) The preparation process is green, controllable and easy to industrialize: the preparation steps are simple, the parameters are easy to adjust and the repeatability is excellent; the protective impregnation method has mild conditions and does not require toxic reagents, which is in line with the concept of green chemical industry.
