Description

A single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve, a catalyst containing the molecular sieve, and its preparation method and use Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of catalytic materials, and relates to a single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve, a preparation method and use thereof, and also relates to a catalytic cracking catalyst comprising the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve, a preparation method and use thereof. Background Art

[0002] Petroleum is an important source of automotive fuel and organic raw materials. Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons that is often fractionated during processing, leaving a large portion of the product as heavy oil. However, heavy oil is difficult to use directly and requires further processing and conversion. Refineries often catalytically crack heavy oil into different products and adjust the ratio of these products based on market demand. For example, some refineries primarily produce automotive fuels such as gasoline and diesel, others focus on gasoline and light olefins, and still others focus on producing chemical raw materials, aiming to minimize gasoline and diesel production. A key factor in the catalytic cracking of heavy oil into different products is the catalytic cracking catalyst.

[0003] Catalytic cracking catalysts are the technical core of the petrochemical industry and the source of technological progress in the petrochemical industry. Catalytic cracking to produce light olefins is a typical high-temperature acid-catalyzed reaction, and its core is the development and design of catalytic cracking catalysts. Catalytic cracking often adjusts the target product according to market demand. ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a unique pore structure, adjustable acidity and high thermal / hydrothermal stability, making it the first choice for hydrocarbon catalytic cracking catalysts. However, although its regular and orderly microporous structure enhances the selectivity of specific products, it also limits the diffusion of large molecular hydrocarbon reactants and products, and also promotes the formation of carbon deposits, further covering active sites and causing catalyst deactivation. The existing technology has proposed cavity ZSM-5 molecular sieves, but these cavity ZSM-5 molecular sieves have a single morphology and are mostly synthesized using a large amount of organic templates.

[0004] Light olefins (ethylene, propylene, etc.) are important basic raw materials for the petrochemical industry. With the rapid development of the global economy, the petrochemical industry is in a period of rapid growth, and the demand for light olefins has increased dramatically. In particular, ethylene is an important basic raw material supporting the national economy and social development and is known as the "mother of petrochemicals." The scale, output, and technological level of its industrial production have become important indicators for measuring the level of a country's chemical industry. The catalytic cracking of hydrocarbons is an important means of obtaining small-molecule hydrocarbons such as ethylene and propylene from large-molecule hydrocarbons. During the cracking process, hydrocarbons undergo a large number of parallel and serial reactions. In addition to cracking to form small-molecule hydrocarbons, they may also aromatize to form aromatic hydrocarbons. The side-chain aromatic hydrocarbons formed may continue to crack or dealkylate to form BTX light aromatic hydrocarbons, or they may form heavy aromatic hydrocarbons through hydrogen transfer.

[0005] The main technical routes for ethylene production include naphtha cracking, coal / methanol to olefins, heavy oil catalytic cracking / catalytic cracking, and light hydrocarbon cracking. Catalytic cracking uses heavy oil, naphtha and light olefins as main raw materials. It can produce ethylene at a relatively low reaction temperature under the action of a catalyst. It has the advantages of flexible and adjustable product distribution, lower energy consumption level and relatively more friendly to the ecological environment. Heavy oil catalytic cracking is based on catalytic cracking and uses a catalyst that can produce more light olefins and appropriately adjusts the reaction conditions, such as increasing the reaction temperature, to convert heavy oil under more harsh conditions. Catalytic cracking catalysts are key factors affecting the catalytic cracking of heavy oil. The co-production of BTX during the catalytic cracking reaction can provide space for subsequent product adjustments. Aromatic hydrocarbons generated by hydrocarbon cracking are by-products of light olefin production. However, the existing technology does not disclose how to have a higher BTX yield while having a higher ethylene yield.

[0006] CN103157507A discloses a catalytic cracking catalyst comprising 2-50% by weight of an ultrastable rare earth Y-type molecular sieve, 0.5-30% by weight of one or more other molecular sieves, 0.5-70% by weight of clay, 1.0-65% by weight of a high-temperature-resistant inorganic oxide, and 0.01-12.5% ​​by weight of a rare earth oxide. The catalyst has strong heavy oil conversion capabilities and a high light oil yield. This catalyst is primarily used to increase gasoline yield, but has limited contribution to increasing light olefin yields.

[0007] CN112138712A discloses a catalytic cracking catalyst, a preparation method thereof, and a method for catalytic cracking of hydrocarbon oil. The catalyst contains 1-30 wt% of a Y-type molecular sieve on a dry basis, 5-55 wt% of a mesoporous, phosphorus- and metal-rich MFI-structured molecular sieve on a dry basis, 1-60 wt% of an inorganic binder on a dry basis, and optionally 0-60 wt% of a second clay on a dry basis. The inorganic binder includes a phosphorus-aluminum inorganic binder and / or other inorganic binders. The catalyst has better ethylene selectivity in the catalytic cracking reaction of petroleum hydrocarbons and can simultaneously produce more propylene and BTX.

[0008] In recent years, the raw materials have become heavier and inferior in quality. The existing technology does not involve catalysts that can further improve the conversion of heavy oil and take into account the yield of gasoline and light olefins under different working conditions.

[0009] Summary of the Invention

[0011] The inventors of the present invention have discovered through research that by adjusting the pore structure and acid center distribution of the molecular sieve, the formation of aromatic hydrocarbons can be partially inhibited or promoted.

[0056] The measurement of the performance parameters disclosed in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, is carried out by the most conventional methods in the art.

[0057] As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve, wherein the particles of the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve have a single crystal structure, a hexagonal morphology, and a double-layer cavity structure with inner and outer layers nested, wherein the inner cavity is at least partially enclosed by the first molecular sieve wall layer, and the outer cavity is completely enclosed by the second molecular sieve wall layer, and wherein the length of the molecular sieve grain (expressed by D t Indicated by) and the length of the outer cavity (denoted by D j The ratio of the width of the molecular sieve crystal to the width of the outer cavity is 1.1-2.0, and the ratio of the width of the molecular sieve crystal to the width of the outer cavity is 1.05-1.5.

[0058] In this specification, the expression "the length of the molecular sieve grains" is equivalent to the expression "the average grain size of the molecular sieve", which refers to the size of the largest dimension of the grains, which can be obtained by measuring the size of the largest dimension of the grain projection surface in the SEM or TEM image of the molecular sieve sample. In order to avoid contingency, 10 molecular sieve grains are generally randomly selected to measure the length and then take the average value. As an illustration, the length of the grains, the width of the grains, the length of the cavity, the width of the cavity, and the thickness of the molecular sieve wall of the molecular sieve sample of the present invention are obtained by randomly selecting 10 molecular sieve grains in the SEM or TEM image of the molecular sieve sample, measuring the length of the grains, the width of the grains, the length of the cavity, the width of the cavity, and the thickness of the molecular sieve wall, and then calculating their arithmetic average.

[0059] As shown in FIG3 , the molecular sieve crystal comprises an inner cavity 1, a first molecular sieve wall layer 2, an outer cavity 3 and a second molecular sieve wall layer 4, wherein the length of the molecular sieve crystal is represented by D t Indicates that the length of the grain D t Usually refers to the length along the ac axis; the length of the outer cavity is Dj It refers to the maximum dimension of the cavity. Usually, the maximum dimension of the cavity has the same direction as the maximum dimension of the grain. It can be obtained by randomly measuring the maximum dimension of the bright white part in the projection surface of 10 grains in the SEM or TEM image of the molecular sieve sample and then calculating their average value. The inner cavity length is expressed as D i It refers to the maximum dimension of the inner cavity structure projection in the SEM or TEM image of the molecular sieve sample, which is also obtained by calculating the average value; the inner cavity width is expressed as D o It refers to the dimension perpendicular to the length direction of the inner cavity, where D i >D o . The “width of the molecular sieve crystal grain” refers to the dimension perpendicular to the length direction of the molecular sieve crystal grain, and the width of the outer cavity refers to the dimension perpendicular to the length direction of the outer cavity, which can also be obtained by measuring the SEM or TEM image of the molecular sieve sample. The thickness of the first molecular sieve wall layer (i.e., the distance between the outer wall surface of the inner cavity and the inner wall surface of the outer cavity) is the distance obtained by randomly measuring and calculating the average value between the outer wall surface of the inner cavity and the inner wall surface of the outer cavity; the thickness of the second molecular sieve wall layer is the distance obtained by randomly measuring and calculating the average value between the inner wall of the outer cavity and the outer wall of the molecular sieve crystal.

[0060] The inventors surprisingly discovered through research that the molecular sieve according to the present invention has a specific hexagonal crystal shape and size, a double-layer cavity structure, a pore structure and an acid center distribution, which makes the molecular sieve have improved selectivity in catalytic cracking. It can not only produce light olefins through catalytic cracking, but also obtain gasoline components with higher yields in the cracking products, providing a reasonable product distribution for the subsequent utilization of the products.

[0061] According to a preferred embodiment, the length D of the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve grains according to the present invention is t The length D of the outer cavity j The ratio of the width of the molecular sieve crystal to the width of the outer cavity is 1.1-2.0, preferably 1.3-1.8, such as 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 or 1.7, and the ratio of the width of the molecular sieve crystal to the width of the outer cavity is 1.05-1.5, preferably 1.1-1.4, such as 1.2 or 1.3. The above ratio allows the second molecular sieve wall layer to have a smaller thickness, which simultaneously provides the molecular sieve with sufficient mechanical strength and a shorter diffusion path, thereby improving the accessibility of the active center and the catalytic selectivity, and providing a sufficient mass transfer rate, allowing hydrocarbon molecules to quickly approach the active center.

[0062] For the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve according to the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, the expression "double-layer" is intended to indicate that the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve crystal includes two molecular sieve wall layers and two cavity layers that are alternately surrounded, that is, the first molecular sieve wall layer at least partially encloses the inner cavity, and outside the first molecular sieve wall layer is the outer cavity layer; the second molecular sieve wall layer completely encloses the outer cavity; the expression "single crystal" is intended to indicate that the ZSM-5 molecular sieve particles have a single crystal structure; the expression "hollow" and the expression "cavity" in this specification can be used equivalently, and are intended to indicate that there is a space in the ZSM-5 molecular sieve grains that does not contain ZSM-5 molecular sieve, and the space is at least partially enclosed by a ZSM-5 molecular sieve wall layer having a certain thickness.

[0063] According to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the particles of the single-crystalline hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve have a single-crystalline structure, and the average grain size thereof is 1.0-3.0 μm, for example, 1.5-2.9 μm.

The entire particle of the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a single crystal structure. The crystal structure and growth orientation of the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve can be observed by a high-power spherical aberration electron microscope.

[0065] According to one embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a regular hexagonal morphology.

[0066] According to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the length of the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve grain is 1.0-3.0 μm, for example 1.2-2.9 μm, the width of the grain is 0.5-2.5 μm, preferably 0.5-2.0 μm, for example 0.8-1.8 μm, the length of the inner cavity is 100-800 nm, for example 200-700 nm, the length of the inner cavity is greater than the width of the inner cavity, and their ratio is 1.01-1.2, the thickness of the first molecular sieve wall is less than 400 nm, for example 100-250 nm. The thickness of the second molecular sieve wall layer (i.e., the distance between the outer wall of the outer cavity and the outer wall of the molecular sieve crystal) is generally less than 700 nm, for example 100-500 nm, preferably 150-400 nm.

[0067] The single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve according to the present invention has excellent hydrothermal stability, high crystal retention and excellent catalytic performance due to its special single crystal structure and pore distribution.

[0068] The relative crystallinity of the molecular sieve according to the present invention is calculated based on the XRD standard ZSM-5 molecular sieve standard sample of Sinopec Research Institute of Petroleum Processing Co., Ltd., and the crystallinity of the standard sample is regarded as 100%.

[0069] According to one embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve contains phosphorus or does not contain phosphorus. Preferably, the phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio in the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 0.5-1.5, and under the condition of hydrothermal treatment at 800°C for 17 hours, the crystallization retention is greater than or equal to 90%, for example, 91-92%, and the acidity retention is greater than or equal to 30%; or, after the single crystal hollow ZSM-5 molecular sieve is modified at a phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio of 1, under the condition of hydrothermal treatment at 800°C for 17 hours, the crystallization retention is greater than or equal to 90%, for example, 91-92%, and the acidity retention is greater than or equal to 30%, for example, 30-40% or 30.5-35%; this indicates that the molecular sieve has good hydrothermal stability after phosphorus modification. The crystallinity retention refers to the ratio of the relative crystallinity of the product obtained after the molecular sieve is modified at a phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio of 1 and then hydrothermally treated at 800°C for 17 hours (referred to as the relative crystallinity after hydrothermal treatment) to the relative crystallinity of the product obtained after the molecular sieve is modified at a phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio of 1 (referred to as the relative crystallinity before hydrothermal treatment); the acidity retention refers to the ratio of the acidity of the product obtained after the molecular sieve is modified at a phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio of 1 and then hydrothermally treated at 800°C for 17 hours (referred to as the acidity after hydrothermal treatment) to the acidity of the product obtained after the molecular sieve is modified at a phosphorus / aluminum molar ratio of 1 (referred to as the acidity before hydrothermal treatment). The hydrothermal treatment is carried out in an atmosphere of 100% by volume water vapor.

[0070] The acidity of the molecular sieve according to the present invention is obtained using the NH3-TPD method. The acidity of the molecular sieve is determined using an Autochem II 2920 temperature-programmed desorber from Mack, USA. Specific testing method: 0.2 g of a 20-40 mesh molecular sieve is weighed in a sample tube and placed in a heating furnace. Using He as the carrier gas at a flow rate of 25 ml / min, the temperature is raised to 600°C at 20°C / min and purged for 90 minutes to remove impurities adsorbed on the surface of the molecular sieve. The temperature is then lowered to 150°C and held constant for 5 minutes. NH3-He gas (10% by mass NH3 and 90% by mass He) is introduced into the system for 60 minutes of adsorption, followed by a He purge for 120 minutes until the baseline is stable to desorb physically adsorbed ammonia.
