Description

Preparation method of silver catalyst for ethylene oxide production by ethylene oxidation, silver catalyst and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of silver catalysts, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a silver catalyst for producing ethylene oxide by ethylene oxidation, the silver catalyst prepared by the method and application of the silver catalyst in the reaction for producing ethylene oxide by ethylene oxidation.
Background
Ethylene is oxidized to mainly generate ethylene oxide under the action of a silver catalyst, and side reactions simultaneously occur to generate carbon dioxide and water, wherein the activity, the selectivity and the stability are main performance indexes of the silver catalyst. The activity refers to the reaction temperature required for the production process of the ethylene oxide to reach a certain reaction load. The lower the reaction temperature, the higher the activity of the catalyst. By selectivity is meant the ratio of the moles of ethylene converted to ethylene oxide in the reaction to the total moles of ethylene reacted. Stability is expressed as the rate of decrease in activity and selectivity, with lower rates indicating better catalyst stability. The use of a silver catalyst with high activity, high selectivity and good stability in the process of producing ethylene oxide by ethylene oxidation can greatly improve economic benefit, so that the production of the silver catalyst with high activity, high selectivity and good stability is the main direction of silver catalyst research. The performance of the silver catalyst has important relation with the composition of the catalyst and the preparation method, and also has important relation with the performance of a carrier used by the catalyst and the preparation method.
The prior art silver catalyst preparation method includes two processes of preparing a porous carrier (such as alumina) and applying an active component and an auxiliary agent to the carrier. In the preparation process of the silver catalyst, for the carrier taking the alpha-Al 2O3 as a main component, a proper specific surface and a pore structure are needed, so that on one hand, enough space is provided for the ethylene epoxidation reaction to diffuse out the reaction heat, and on the other hand, the timely desorption of the reaction product ethylene oxide is facilitated, and the deep oxidation is avoided to generate by-product carbon dioxide. Chinese patent CN1009437B adopts proper proportion to mix with alumina trihydrate to prepare alumina carrier with specific surface of 0.2-2 m 2/g and pore volume of more than 0.5ml/g, wherein the pores with pore radius of more than 30 μm account for less than 25%, and the selectivity of the catalyst for ethylene epoxidation reaction can reach 83-84%.
The addition of other components to alumina supports to improve the support and improve the performance of the silver catalyst is also an important research direction. In addition, the performance of the silver catalyst can also be improved by chemically treating the alumina carrier. European patent EP0150238B1 claims to improve the crushing strength and attrition resistance of the support by using small amounts of barium aluminate or barium silicate binders during the manufacture of high purity, low surface alumina supports, which produce supports having specific surfaces less than 0.3m 2/g, and which produce catalysts having relatively low activity and selectivity. The alumina supports used in US4740493A, US4829043a and EP0501317A1 contain some amount of Ca, al, K, na soluble salts and claim to reduce the rate of catalyst selectivity decline during use. US5384302a claims that reducing the Na, K, ca, al ion content in the support by pre-treating α -Al 2O3 improves the crushing strength and abrasion resistance of the support. EP0712334B1 prepares a silver catalyst by loading effective amounts of silver, auxiliary amounts of alkali metal, auxiliary amounts of magnesium and auxiliary amounts of rhenium on a carrier containing at least 85% of alumina and 0.001-2% of magnesium in the form of oxide, and improves the stability of the catalyst. US5100859A, US5145824A, EP0900126B1 and US5801259A, US5733842a add alkaline earth metal, silicon and zirconium to α -Al 2O3 to make carrier, then impregnate silver, alkali metal auxiliary agent, rhenium auxiliary agent and its auxiliary agent to make silver catalyst, and patent indicates that alkaline earth metal, preferably calcium, strontium and barium salt are used together with zirconium compound, and the influence of both addition on catalyst performance is not known. US5739075A prepares a silver catalyst from a treated carrier by depositing a promoter amount of a rare earth metal and another promoter amount of a metal salt (alkaline earth metal or group VIII transition metal) on the surface of an alumina carrier in advance, and then calcining the catalyst, and the evaluation result shows that the selectivity reduction rate of the catalyst is smaller than that of a catalyst sample which is not subjected to the pre-deposition treatment. CN1511632a found that the activity and selectivity of the silver catalyst prepared by adding a heavy alkaline earth metal compound to an alumina raw material to prepare a carrier, impregnating a solution prepared from a silver compound, an organic amine and a specific auxiliary agent, and performing heat treatment in an oxygen-containing mixed gas are improved.
Although the above patent documents respectively adopt various methods to improve the alumina carrier, which brings about different improvements to the activity, stability and selectivity of the catalyst, the requirements for the carrier performance are continuously increased along with the large-scale industrial application of the silver catalyst with high Re selectivity, and therefore, the carrier performance is required to be continuously improved.
