The invention belongs to the field of catalyst preparation, and particularly relates to a
platinum-based bimetallic
propane dehydrogenation catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, weighing beta
molecular sieve powder, adding into a concentrated
nitric acid solution, stirring and refluxing at high temperature, centrifugally washing, and
drying to obtain a dealuminated beta
molecular sieve; then calcining the
metal additive
oxide powder and the dealuminated beta
molecular sieve in a
reducing atmosphere to obtain composite beta molecular
sieve powder; then weighing
platinum precursor salt, dissolving the
platinum precursor salt in
ultrapure water to form a solution, and then adding
ethylenediamine for coordination; and finally, impregnating the composite beta molecular
sieve with a platinum precursor solution, and carrying out aging,
drying and high-
temperature treatment to obtain the dealumination beta molecular
sieve loaded platinum-based bimetallic catalyst. According to the method provided by the invention, the
metal is spontaneously and highly dispersed on the carrier by utilizing the capturing effect of the beta molecular sieve
silanol nest on the
metal and combining the dynamic migration behavior of the metal under high-temperature reduction. The prepared catalyst shows extremely high
propane conversion activity and selectivity at 600 DEG C, and is excellent in stability.
