Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of functional catalyst technology, specifically relating to a photo-in-situ heating catalyst and its application in catalyzing the dry reforming reaction of methane, as well as a method for catalyzing the dry reforming reaction of methane. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasingly severe global climate change problem, controlling greenhouse gas emissions, primarily composed of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), has become a common challenge facing the international community. Compared to the impact of CO2, the single-molecule greenhouse effect potential of CH4 far exceeds that of CO2, and it has made a significant contribution to recent global warming. Therefore, exploring the resource-based conversion of CH4 and CO2, these two major greenhouse gases, in this field can not only help alleviate environmental pressure but also transform them into high-value-added chemicals or fuels, achieving "turning waste into treasure," which is an important direction in line with the sustainable development strategy.

[0003] Among the numerous CH4 and CO2 conversion pathways, dry reforming (DRM: CH4 + CO2 → 2CO + 2H2) has attracted much attention due to its ability to simultaneously and efficiently convert two greenhouse gases and produce syngas (CO + H2). Methane-carbon dioxide dry reforming can simultaneously utilize methane and carbon dioxide to produce syngas, which, as a key platform feedstock, can be further converted into liquid fuels or bulk chemicals, occupying a core position in the modern chemical industry chain. Therefore, developing efficient DRM technology has significant environmental and economic benefits.

[0004] However, since both CH4 and CO2 are inert molecules with high dissociation energies and low polarizability, high operating temperatures above 800°C are usually required to drive the dry reforming reaction from a thermodynamic and kinetic perspective. This inevitably leads to catalyst deactivation due to sintering of active metal sites, as well as carbon deposition caused by the disproportionate dissociation of CH4 and the generation of CO.

[0005] More importantly, because the dry reforming of methane is a strongly endothermic reaction with a standard molar enthalpy change ΔH = +247 kJ / mol, and because this reaction occurs at the active sites of the catalyst metal, it undergoes intense endothermic reactions within milliseconds. Traditional external furnace heating and the currently mainstream bed-type photothermal catalysis both employ a multi-stage heat conduction mode of "reactor wall → inert packing → catalyst support → active sites," which inherently involves thermal resistance and heat transfer hysteresis. When the instantaneous endothermic rate of the reaction is much greater than the external heat conduction rate, it will cause a sudden drop in the local instantaneous temperature of the active sites (site cooling). Conventional thermocouples can only detect the macroscopic average temperature of the reaction bed and cannot identify low-temperature anomalies at the nanoscale active sites. Typically, site cooling will cause three major problems: firstly, the apparent activation energy of the reaction increases, and the instantaneous conversion rate decreases significantly; secondly, reaction intermediates tend to accumulate at low-temperature sites, exacerbating catalyst carbon deposition; and thirdly, repeated fluctuations in site temperature accelerate the sintering and deactivation of the metal active components. In traditional reaction systems, the common industry problem of mismatched heat transfer and endothermic rates and microscopic site temperature loss has long been overlooked and is a core bottleneck restricting further improvement in DRM reaction efficiency, which has not yet been completely solved. Although existing technologies have gradually developed various photothermal catalysis technologies that can reduce the reaction temperature to some extent, the overall process still belongs to the "externally heated bed" and has not broken away from the heat conduction system.

[0006] Therefore, the field expects to develop a more direct heat conduction reaction system to circumvent the heat conduction process and specifically address the pain point of temperature loss at the entire process site, which is of positive significance for the development and application of methane dry reforming reaction.

[0021] The present invention also provides the application of the photo-in-situ heating catalyst or the photo-in-situ heating catalyst prepared by the method in the catalytic dry reforming reaction process of methane.

[0022] The present invention also provides a method for photo-in-situ heating catalyzed dry reforming of methane, comprising the steps of using methane and carbon dioxide as raw materials and providing a light source through concentrated light irradiation in the presence of the photo-in-situ heating catalyst or the photo-in-situ heating catalyst prepared by the method, to carry out the dry reforming reaction.

[0023] Specifically, the method for photocatalytic in-situ heating of methane dry reforming includes the following steps: S1, the catalyst is loaded, a selected light source is used to irradiate the catalyst with a first focused light, and a reducing atmosphere is introduced to reduce the catalyst in situ by light irradiation; S2, the reducing atmosphere is turned off, a mixed reaction gas of CH4, CO2 and N2 is introduced, and the catalyst is irradiated with a second focused light to catalyze the CH4 and CO2 to undergo a dry reforming reaction.

[0024] Specifically, the method for photocatalytic in-situ heating of methane dry reforming reaction: In step S1, the catalyst loading container includes a quartz reaction tube; and / or, In step S1, the light source includes a xenon lamp, an LED light source, simulated sunlight, etc.; and / or, In step S1, the parameters for the first focused illumination step include: adjusting the light intensity of the light source to 5-40 W / cm². 2 ; Usually adjusted to maximum light intensity (specific parameters depend on the light source); and / or, In step S1, the reducing atmosphere includes a mixed atmosphere of H2 and inert gas (preferably H2 accounting for 10%-20%); and / or, In step S1, the in-situ illumination restoration step takes 15-20 minutes; and / or, In step S2, the volume ratio of CH4, CO2, and N2 in the mixed reaction gas is 1:1:1-1.5; and / or, In step S2, the space velocity of the mixed reaction gas is 1000-13000 h⁻¹. -1 ; and / or, In step S2, the parameters of the second focusing irradiation step include: adjusting the light intensity of the light source to control the system temperature to 100-800℃; usually adjusting the light intensity from high to low or from low to high to control temperature changes; In step S2, the dry reforming reaction is carried out at atmospheric pressure.

[0025] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention comprises a support and an active metal element supported on the support; wherein the active metal element includes a plasma photothermal metal that can generate heat by irradiation using the plasma effect; the support comprises a composite metal oxide. The active metal element nanoparticles in the catalyst exhibit a strong localized surface plasmon resonance effect, allowing light to be directly converted into heat energy at the metal active sites under illumination. Since the heat-generating region is the same as the DRM reaction site, a complete heat transfer path, thermal resistance, and heat transfer hysteresis can be achieved, effectively ensuring the heat supply for the entire process.

[0026] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention innovatively forms a photo-in-situ heating mechanism. Utilizing the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of metal nanoparticles in the catalyst, light energy is instantaneously converted into heat energy in situ at the active site under illumination. Without the need for external heat transfer, it can directly meet the strong endothermic requirements of DRM and completely solve the defect of "site temperature loss-heat transfer mismatch" caused by heat conduction in traditional DRM reaction.

[0027] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention generates heat in situ at the reaction site, eliminating the need for multi-stage heat conduction. Even during the transient phase of intense endothermic reaction, the temperature of the active site does not decrease significantly, resulting in a substantial improvement in microscopic temperature stability. The isothermal site keeps the apparent activation energy of the reaction at a low level, preventing drastic fluctuations in the instantaneous conversion rate of raw materials and the reaction rate, thus enhancing the continuity of the reaction and completely solving the problem of instantaneous temperature loss at the active site.

[0028] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention is based on the photo-in-situ heating mechanism. Under this mode, the temperature of the active site remains stable. Especially during the DRM reaction, the heat absorbed instantaneously by the active site is replenished in real time and in full by the heat generated in situ by the light, realizing the dynamic matching of the heat absorption rate and the in-situ heat generation rate. This fundamentally eliminates the instantaneous temperature loss phenomenon caused by heat transfer lag in traditional systems, while significantly reducing the overall heat loss.

[0029] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention is based on an innovative "photo-in-situ heating" strategy. This heat generation method avoids heat transfer and realizes in-situ energy supply at the reaction site, ensuring that the heat demand of the endothermic reaction can be met in time. This is expected to avoid the reduction in reaction efficiency due to "temperature loss" at the active site, and can fundamentally solve the problem of heat transfer mismatch, providing a new idea for developing low-energy-consumption and high-efficiency greenhouse gas conversion technologies.

[0030] The photo-in-situ heating catalyst of this invention effectively eliminates the periodic low-temperature range of active sites, reducing the adsorption of carbon precursors; it can inhibit carbon deposition and sintering from the source, while avoiding repeated temperature fluctuations, effectively inhibiting the sintering of metal nanoparticles, and extending the service life of the catalyst.

[0031] The method for preparing the photo-in-situ heating catalyst of the present invention uses common metal salts and alkaline solutions to prepare a hydrotalcite precursor, which can be obtained by calcination and reduction. It does not require complex equipment or harsh conditions, and the preparation process is simple and easy to scale up, which is conducive to large-scale industrial production.

[0032] The method for catalytic dry reforming of methane described in this invention, based on the advantages of the catalyst, realizes a photo-enhanced in-situ heating method for DRM, which can completely eliminate the external heat transfer process, reduce heat loss to an extremely low level, and further reduce the overall energy consumption of the reaction by combining clean solar energy, making it more suitable for the requirements of continuous industrial production.

[0033] The method for catalytic dry reforming of methane described in this invention employs a light-transmitting reactor to construct a mixed bed, ensuring uniform light transmission and bed temperature; it uses a light source for directional irradiation, enabling in-situ heat generation of the photothermal catalyst, resulting in a concentrated heat field, fast response, and no heat loss; the entire process is based on photothermal coupling for catalysis, reducing the reaction activation energy, inhibiting carbon deposition and sintering, and improving conversion rate and stability.

[0034] The catalyst of this invention, in synergy with the photo-in-situ heating mode, can simultaneously solve three common industry problems in traditional methane dry reforming reactions: catalyst coking, sintering, and low heat transfer efficiency. Firstly, the catalyst prepared by the hydrotalcite precursor method has small particle size and high dispersion of Ni active sites. Combined with the strong metal-support interaction and basic sites of the support, it intrinsically inhibits coking and metal sintering. Secondly, the photo-in-situ heating mode completely eliminates the instantaneous temperature loss of active sites caused by the strong endothermic reaction. This avoids the aggravation of CO disproportionation and coking in the low-temperature region and reduces thermal shock sintering caused by temperature fluctuations. Simultaneously, it enhances the carbon gasification reaction to achieve in-situ removal of coking. This system significantly extends catalyst lifespan while improving catalytic activity, and it boasts high energy utilization and low equipment requirements, making it more suitable for large-scale, low-carbon methane dry reforming industrial production.

[0035] The method for catalytic dry reforming of methane described in this invention breaks with the traditional heating approach. It utilizes the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of metals to achieve in-situ heat generation at active sites, completely avoiding the heat transfer process and specifically addressing the pain point of site temperature loss. It effectively overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies and has high industrial application value. Attached Figure Description

[0090] Experimental Example 1. XRD pattern The LDHs samples (NiMgAl-LDHs and NiMgAlTi-LDHs) prepared in Examples 1 and 2 above were subjected to XRD analysis, and the results are shown in the appendix. Figure 2 As shown.

[0091] As can be seen in the XRD patterns of the above samples, at 2θ = 11.7... o 23.6 o 35.4 o 39.6 o 47.0 o 60.3 o 61.2 oCharacteristic diffraction peaks appeared, which corresponded to the characteristic diffraction peaks of magnesium aluminum hydrotalcite (PDF#54-1030) in Jade card (003), (006), (012), (015), (018), (110), (113), respectively, and no other impurity peaks appeared, indicating that the prepared precursor has a good hydrotalcite structure and good crystal form.

[0092] Take the composite oxide samples (Ni-MgAlO) prepared in Examples 1 and 2 above, respectively. x and Ni-MgAlTiO x XRD pattern testing was performed, and the results are attached. Figure 3 As shown.

[0093] As can be seen in the XRD pattern of the above samples, at 2θ = 36.6... o 43.5 o and 63.1 o Observed at [location] belongs to MgAlO x Characteristic diffraction peaks of crystal planes (111), (200), and (220) (PDF#45-0946); at 44.5 o 51.9 o and 76.4 o The characteristic diffraction peaks of the corresponding metal Ni (111), (200), and (220) were observed at the point (PDF#04-0850).

[0094] 2. Effect of different Ni contents In this experimental example, based on the catalyst preparation scheme described in Preparation Example 1, the performance of the catalyst products with different Ni contents was investigated.

[0095] Following the method described in Preparation Example 1, Ni-MgAlO4 was prepared with Ni contents of 5, 10, 20, and 30 wt% by adjusting the amount of Ni salt. x Meanwhile, the catalyst from the comparative preparation example 1 was used, and the dry reforming reaction process was performed according to Example 1 at 12.5 W / cm². 2 Under illumination, the temperature rise and fall curves of each catalyst product were tested.

[0096] The results are attached. Figure 4 As shown.

[0097] The results show that for Ni-MgAlO derived in situ from hydrotalcite precursors xWithin the Ni loading range of 5-30 wt%, the photothermal heating rate of the catalyst gradually increases with increasing Ni loading, the steady-state equilibrium temperature gradually rises, and the photothermal conversion efficiency increases with the increase in the number of Ni active sites with plasmon effects. At the same Ni loading, the catalyst prepared by the hydrotalcite precursor method of this invention exhibits a faster photothermal response rate and a higher steady-state temperature compared to the comparative traditional impregnation method sample. This is attributed to the more uniform dispersion of Ni nanoparticles, stronger interaction with the support, and a more significant local surface plasmon resonance effect, which can provide efficient and stable local thermal field support for the methane dry reforming reaction under photo-in-situ heating mode.

[0098] 3. DRM reaction conversion rate In this experimental example, the performance of the DRM reaction under the schemes of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 was investigated, and the methane and carbon dioxide conversion rates of the respective DRM reactions were examined at different light powers. The results are shown in the appendix. Figure 5 As shown.

[0099] It is evident that the CH4 and CO2 conversion rates of both catalysts gradually increase with increasing light power density; under the same light intensity conditions, the Ni-MgAlO prepared by the hydrotalcite precursor method of this invention... x The catalyst exhibits a significantly higher feed conversion rate than the Ni / MgAlO catalyst prepared by the conventional impregnation method compared to the control sample. x Furthermore, the reaction can be initiated even under low light intensity, exhibiting superior photoresponse performance. This performance advantage stems from the catalyst prepared by the precursor method, which possesses uniformly dispersed Ni particles and stronger interactions between the metal support. This enhances the localized surface plasmon resonance effect, improves photothermal conversion efficiency, and strengthens electron transfer. It can fully leverage the technical advantages of in-situ photothermal heating, providing sufficient thermal driving force and active sites for the methane dry reforming reaction, thus achieving highly efficient greenhouse gas conversion.

[0100] In this experimental example, the performance of the DRM reaction under the schemes of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 was investigated, and the methane conversion rate and equilibrium conversion rate of the DRM reaction were examined under different heating methods. The results are shown in the appendix. Figure 6 As shown.

[0101] It is evident that, under the same macroscopic bed temperature, the CH4 conversion rate of the photo-in-situ heating system of this invention is far higher than that of the traditional external heating system, and the reaction start-up temperature is lower. This performance advantage stems from the photo-in-situ heating mode: utilizing the local surface plasmon resonance effect of metal nanoparticles, light energy is converted into heat energy in situ at the reactive active site, completely avoiding the hysteresis and loss caused by multi-stage heat conduction, eliminating the problem of active site temperature loss caused by strong endothermic reaction, and significantly improving the actual site temperature and reaction heat driving force; at the same time, the photothermal coupling effect can reduce the apparent activation energy of the reaction, realizing a highly efficient methane dry reforming reaction under mild conditions.

[0102] 4. Effects of catalyst temperature loss In this experimental example, the DRM reaction was tested using the schemes of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, respectively.

[0103] According to the schemes of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, inert gas Ar was introduced into both reaction systems. After the heating program stabilized, the initial steady-state temperature was recorded. Then, the corresponding CH4 / CO2 reaction gas was introduced instantaneously (strong endothermic start) and the system was run for 20-60 seconds, and the temperature change was recorded. The system was then switched back to inert gas, and this cycle was repeated. At the same time, the CO / H2 signal of the product was qualitatively detected by mass spectrometry throughout the process.

[0104] The pulse signal curves and temperature loss curves under the conventional thermal reaction in Comparative Example 2 are shown in the attached figure. Figure 7 As shown in the attached figure, the pulse signal curve and temperature curve under the photothermal response in Example 1 are as follows. Figure 8 As shown.

[0105] As can be seen, in traditional thermal systems, after a pulsed reaction, the catalyst temperature drops rapidly, resulting in a severe temperature loss of over 30°C within 10 seconds, and requiring more than 30 seconds to slowly recover. In contrast, the in-situ photothermal system of this invention allows for immediate in-situ reheating at the site, resulting in a pulsed reaction temperature drop of less than 10°C, with rapid recovery, thus completely eliminating the site-specific temperature loss phenomenon.

[0106] In summary, this invention constructs a catalyst system based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of metals to achieve in-situ heat generation at active sites. When applied to the DRM reaction, it can achieve in-situ photothermal heating, completely avoiding the heat transfer process of the entire process, and specifically solving the pain point of site cooling, effectively ensuring the efficiency and performance of the entire DRM reaction.

The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of the present invention. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.
