Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst forming, specifically relating to a heterogeneous ammonium oxime catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Compared to traditional homogeneous ammonium oximation catalysts, heterogeneous ammonium oximation catalysts for cycloalkanone ammoxidation have higher requirements for the distribution of Ti sites after molding. This is mainly because the industrial TS-1 catalyst is synthesized in situ, with Ti sites uniformly dispersed within the molecular sieve framework. However, the industrial preparation of heterogeneous ammonium oximation catalysts primarily uses a two-step post-treatment method to replenish titanium active sites. During molding, a large number of Ti active sites are covered, resulting in low actual Ti utilization. Therefore, developing and preparing highly efficient heterogeneous ammonium oximation molding catalysts can effectively improve the utilization rate of active centers and reduce wastewater discharge throughout the preparation and molding process, which is of great significance for promoting the green development of the nylon industry.
[0003] Existing technologies, such as patent CN106964400A, disclose a method for forming titanium-silicon molecular sieves, a forming catalyst, and its application, as well as a method for cyclohexanone oxidation. These methods improve the selectivity of the target product by replacing the water added during the forming process with the crystallization mother liquor of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve. However, they do not solve the problem of titanium active sites being covered during the forming process. Patent CN120421034A discloses a one-pot post-processing method for preparing Ti-MOR catalysts and its application. This method does not involve catalyst forming; it uses a one-step liquid-phase titanium-supported process with acid and titanium source co-treatment agents to obtain the molecular sieve catalyst mother liquor. However, the production process generates a large amount of waste acid, which needs to be treated before discharge, increasing operating costs. Summary of the Invention

[0015] On the other hand, the present invention provides an application of the above-mentioned heterogeneous ammonium oxime catalyst in the ammoxidation of cycloalkanes.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention uses a one-pot post-processing method to prepare the mother liquor for Ti-MOR catalyst, replacing the acid solution added during the molding process.

[0046] Test case The heterogeneous ammoniation catalysts obtained in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were tested in the ammoxidation reaction of cycloalkanes. The test results are shown in Table 1 below. As shown in Table 1, the heterogeneous ammoniation catalysts obtained in Examples 1-4 can improve reaction efficiency, promote the conversion of cycloalkanes, and simultaneously enhance the selectivity of the target product cycloalkanone oxime in the ammoxidation of cycloalkanes, showing significant advantages compared to the comparative examples.
[0047] This invention replaces the acid solution added during the molding process with a one-pot post-processing mother liquor for preparing Ti-MOR catalyst. This mother liquor contains a large number of crystal grains and crystalline structural units, which effectively promotes the dispersion of Ti active sites, reduces the loss of active sites, and forms four-coordinated titanium active species within the framework. The higher the strength of the acid source in the waste acid mother liquor, the greater the degree of dealumination. Since Ti occupies the dealumination sites, it forms Ti active sites. By utilizing the degree of hydrolysis or solubility of the titanium source in the acid solution, the content of the active component Ti can be further controlled, improving catalytic activity. After mixing MOR molecular sieve powder, waste acid mother liquor, modifier, and binder, the mixture undergoes molding. The molded heterogeneous ammonium oxime catalyst has a larger specific surface area and a better mesoporous structure compared to the unformed molecular sieve powder. This effectively promotes the diffusion of large molecular cycloalkane ketones and / or other intermediate products generated during the cycloalkane ammoxidation reaction through the pores, preventing the large accumulation of large molecular products from clogging the pores and covering the titanium active sites, thus hindering catalytic activity.
[0048] This invention employs a boron-containing modifier. By utilizing boron to initiate desilication of the molecular sieve framework, the Ti species are transformed from the Ti(OSi)4 structure to the Ti(OSi)3OH structure, i.e., a transformation from a closed structure to an open structure. This induces the transformation of the active center, further enhancing the Lewis acid strength of the titanium active center and improving catalytic oxidation performance. During catalyst preparation and molding, acid treatment removes boron species from the molecular sieve framework, expanding the interlayer pores in the structure while preventing binders from clogging the pores and exposing the titanium active sites. This facilitates the approach of macromolecular cycloalkanes and / or other intermediates to the active center, improving conversion and target product selectivity. Furthermore, in the molecular sieve crystal structure, B, Al, and Ti compete for placement at T sites, further promoting the dispersion of titanium active sites on the outer surface of the crystal. This allows substrate molecules in the cycloalkanes ammoxidation reaction to directly contact the active center, shortening the diffusion mass transfer path of the substrate molecules and improving catalytic efficiency.
[0049] In Example 1, boric acid was used as a modifier. During the catalyst preparation process, boric acid enables B atoms to form coordination bonds with oxygen atoms, inhibiting excessive growth of molecular sieve crystals, promoting the bonding of Ti sites with the molecular sieve framework, decomposing under calcination conditions, promoting the formation of molecular sieve pore structures, reducing pore collapse, and preventing binders from clogging pores and covering Ti active sites. The resulting heterogeneous ammonium oxime catalyst has more exposed titanium active sites and better dispersion on the surface. The introduction of aluminum-containing binders further provides acid sites for the molecular sieve, promoting the adsorption and activation of ammonia molecules, improving the conversion rate of cycloalkanones, reducing the formation of intermediate products, and improving the selectivity of the target product, cycloalkanone oximes. Compared to Example 1, the addition of excessive waste acid mother liquor in the comparative example resulted in a decrease in the conversion rate of cycloalkanone and the selectivity of the target product, cycloalkanone oxime. As a substitute for the acid added during the catalyst molding process, excessive acid reduces the crystallinity of the molecular sieve, destroys the framework structure, significantly reduces the number of titanium active sites, and makes it easy for titanium species to agglomerate and block the pores, making it difficult to form four-coordinate titanium active species within the framework. During the cycloalkanes ammoxidation reaction, the molded catalyst is unable to effectively exert its adsorption and activation capabilities, making it difficult to avoid the occurrence of side reactions and generating a large number of unevenly distributed intermediate products.
[0050] This invention uses NH4-containing + Modifiers can utilize NH 4+ Modifying the charge microenvironment. In Example 2, ammonium nitrate was used as a modifier, via NH4+. 4+Treatment effectively alters the charge microenvironment surrounding the active Ti site, increasing its positive charge and facilitating the formation of four-coordinate titanium species active centers. This prevents side reactions caused by protic acids within the zeolite structure, which could lead to decreased activity. Simultaneously, it promotes the generation of more uniformly distributed dealumination vacancies within the zeolite, providing sites for titanium species and fostering the formation of four-coordinate titanium species within the framework. The increased positive charge of the Ti sites promotes heterolytic cleavage of the OO bonds in the reaction intermediate Ti−OOH, thereby enhancing the selectivity of epoxidation. The ammonium salt releases gases during the calcination stage, enabling the zeolite structure to form mesopores, increasing the specific surface area, and preventing kaolin from acting as a binder and clogging the pores. NH4 + It can improve the strong acid sites on the surface of kaolin and inhibit the occurrence of catalytic side reactions. The mesoporous structure formed by molecular sieves can promote the adsorption and transformation of macromolecular substrates and macromolecular intermediates, thereby improving the selectivity of target products.
[0051] Comparative Example 2 did not contain NH4+ compared to Example 2. 4+ Modification leads to a significant decrease in the conversion rate of cycloalkanones and the selectivity of the target product, cycloalkanone oxime. When NH3 is absent... 4+ When modifiers participate in the reaction, titanium species agglomerate, dispersibility decreases, and the number of active centers is greatly reduced. Furthermore, molecular sieves are unable to form good mesoporous structures, and there is also the problem of binders clogging the pores. Macromolecular reactants cannot be effectively adsorbed and will come into contact with active centers for transformation. The intermediate products generated are also difficult to diffuse and transform within the pores. A large number of active sites are covered, leading to a large number of intermediate side reactions. Therefore, the conversion rate of cycloalkanones and the selectivity of the target product cycloalkane oximes are significantly reduced.
[0052] The difference between Example 3 and Comparative Example 3 lies in the particle size of the shaped catalyst. Comparative Example 3 used catalyst particles of 10-50 mm, while Example 3 optimized the particle size to 500 μm-1 mm microspheres. From a mass transfer perspective, smaller particle size significantly shortens the diffusion path of reactants to the active sites within the catalyst, while simultaneously accelerating the outward diffusion of products, effectively reducing internal diffusion resistance. This optimization not only improves the contact efficiency between reactants and the catalyst but also reduces side reactions, thereby enhancing the selectivity of the target product. Furthermore, the microspherical structure of the shaped catalyst provides a higher specific surface area, exposing more active sites and further enhancing catalytic performance. Example 4 uses a catalyst with a particle size of 200-500 μm, achieving comparable reaction conversion and selectivity performance to Example 3. Therefore, controlling the catalyst particle size within a reasonable range not only optimizes the mass transfer process but also ensures simultaneous achievement of mechanical strength and industrial filtration.
