METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF VINYL CHLORIDE BY CHILLED 1,2-DICHLOROETHANE

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a method for pyrolysis of 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) to prepare vinyl chloride monomer (VCM)BACKGROUND

[0002] Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is the second major general-purpose resin worldwide, and VCM is a main raw material to synthesize PVC. The VCM production is achieved mainly through the following two industrial production routes: calcium carbide route and ethylene route. In the calcium carbide route, VCM is prepared through the hydrochlorination of acetylene under the catalysis of mercury chloride. In the ethylene route, VCM is prepared through the pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE.

[0003] The global treaty "Minamata Convention on Mercury" restricts and may eventually prohibit the use of mercury catalysts, making the calcium carbide route the less desirable route for producing VCM in China. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a green VCM production route.

[0004] Industrially, thermal pyrolysis is adopted for the pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM, and a reaction temperature is controlled at about 500°C to improve a conversion rate of 1,2-DCE. This route involves a high reaction temperature and a large energy consumption and is prone to coking and carbon deposition, which requires periodic shutdown for coke cleaning, causing a great impact on the normal operation of production. Therefore, it is necessary to study and develop a catalyst capable of reducing the pyrolysis temperature and improving the pyrolysis selectivity.

[0005] US Patent USP5008225 discloses a catalyst for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM, where the catalyst is obtained by loading a rare earth element on molecular sieves HFZ-20, HFZ-30, and HFZ-55. When the catalyst is used for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM, a 1,2-DCE conversion rate is 35.8% and a maximum VCM selectivity is 90.1%.

[0006] Chinese Patent CN102247884A discloses a catalyst for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM, where the catalyst is obtained by loading a rare earth element on a molecular sieve ZSM-5. When the catalyst is used for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM, a 1,2-DCE conversion rate is 55.6% and a maximum VCM selectivity is 98%.

[0007] Chinese Patent CN102249844A discloses a method for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE with a metal-modified molecular sieve SAPO-34 as a catalyst to prepare VCM, where a 1,2-DCE conversion rate is 55% and a maximum VCM selectivity is 98%.

[0008] Chinese Patent CN102766018A discloses a method for catalytic pyrolysis with a barium chloride catalyst to prepare VCM, where a BaCl 2 active component is loaded on activated carbon in a mass fraction of 1% to 30% and is used for catalytic pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM at 0.1 MPa, 300°C, and a 1,2-DCE vapor space velocity of 240 h -1< , which has a pyrolysis conversion rate of 38%.

[0009] These catalysts can reduce the 1,2-DCE pyrolysis temperature to some extent, but due to insufficient activity, short life, difficult regeneration, and the like, these catalysts still cannot be used in industrial production.SUMMARY

[0077] The catalyst sample 15# was used in a catalytic pyrolysis reaction of 1,2-DCE. When a WHSV of 1,2-DCE was 0.5 h -1< and a reaction temperature was 300°C, a 1,2-DCE conversion rate was 28% and a VCM selectivity was 98.0%.Example 16 (Reference)

[0078] 80 g of a purchased sodium-type MOR molecular sieve powder with a silicon-aluminum ratio (SiO 2 / Al 2 O 3 ) of 15 was weighed, then 200 g of a silica sol with a silica mass content of 40%, 5 mL of dilute nitric acid with a mass concentration of 5%, and 5 g of lignin were added, and the resulting mixture was thoroughly mixed in a mixer and then extruded by an extruder with a circular orifice plate of 3 mm in diameter to obtain a strip material. The strip material was dried at 60°C for 6 h and then roasted at 550°C for 6 h. A roasted strip material was crushed and sieved to obtain cylindrical particles with a length of about 3 mm, which was a finished sodium-type MOR molecular sieve catalyst product with a molecular sieve content of 50% and a silica content of 50% (i.e., a catalyst for pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM) and was denoted as sample 16#.

[0079] The catalyst sample 16# was used in a catalytic pyrolysis reaction of 1,2-DCE. When a WHSV of 1,2-DCE was 0.1 h -1< and a reaction temperature was 320°C, a 1,2-DCE conversion rate was 90% and a VCM selectivity was 98.0%.Example 17 (Reference)

[0080] 80 g of a potassium-type MOR molecular sieve powder with a silicon-aluminum ratio (SiO 2 / Al 2 O 3 ) of 15.1 was weighed, then 80 g of kaolin, 120 mL of water, 5 mL of dilute nitric acid with a mass concentration of 5%, and 5 g of lignin were added, and the resulting mixture was thoroughly mixed in a mixer and then extruded by an extruder with a circular orifice plate of 3 mm in diameter to obtain a strip material. The strip material was dried at 60°C for 6 h and then roasted at 550°C for 6 h. The roasted strip material was crushed and sieved to obtain cylindrical particles with a length of about 3 mm, which was a finished potassium-type MOR molecular sieve catalyst product with a molecular sieve content of 50% and a kaolin content of 50% (i.e., a catalyst for pyrolysis of 1,2-DCE to prepare VCM) and was denoted as sample 17#.

[0081] The catalyst sample 17# was used in a catalytic pyrolysis reaction of 1,2-DCE. When a WHSV of 1,2-DCE was 0.1 h -1< and a reaction temperature was 320°C, a 1,2-DCE conversion rate was 95% and a VCM selectivity was 98.0%.
