Technical field
The present invention relates to industrial chemicals Intermediate Preparation field, specifically a kind of Catalysts and its preparation method and application preparing hydrogen cyanide for methanol ammonoxidation.
Background technology
Hydrogen cyanide is a kind of important industrial chemicals intermediate, can be used for the plating, organic synthesis etc. of preparing nylon, pesticide, acrylonitrile and gold, silver and bronze etc., has the very large market space.
The method of producing hydrogen cyanide mainly contains methane ammonia oxidation, acrylonitrile by-product method, light oil cracking method etc.Methane ammoxidation reaction temperature is more than 1000 DEG C, and hydrogen cyanide productive rate can only reach 60-70%, and reaction temperature is high, brings unsafe factor.Acrylonitrile by-product method is with propylene, air and ammonia for raw material carries out catalytic oxidation synthesis of acrylonitrile, simultaneously by-product part hydrogen cyanide, and due to updating of acrylonitrile catalyst, by-product HCN is fewer and feweri.Light oil cracking method is with light oil, petroleum coke for primary raw material, carries out pyroreaction synthesize hydrogen cyanide with ammonia, and this production technology needs gap to add solid coke, and building-up process is unstable, is difficult to large-scale production.
Therefore, people actively seek other process routes, and methyl alcohol is due to low price, wide material sources, and process route pressure and temp is all in controlled range simultaneously, and methanol ammonoxidation is prepared hydrogen cyanide and is day by day subject to people's attention.In this process route, the factor of most critical is exactly catalyst.
In the existing bibliographical information of hydrogen cyanide, Mo catalyst series has been a kind of catalyst of comparative maturity in methanol ammonoxidation preparation.Mo oxide, no matter as major catalyst or co-catalyst, has the existence of Mo element in most of catalyst.By from different element combinations, Mo catalyst series obtains different performances.As added transition metal to improve activity in active constituent, the list increasing product is received; Add rare earth metal and can improve catalyst activity etc., the improvement of Mo catalyst series is constantly being carried out.

In patent document (comprising above patent document) in recent years, for Mo series catalysts reduce ammonia oxygen in unstripped gas to methanol feedstock than in research little.The reduction of oxygen ratio can improve ultimate yield.The reduction of ammonia ratio produces desirable influence to industrial production everyway, can reduce in and the consumption of sulfuric acid of unreacted ammonia, reduce the production of ammonium sulfate, to reduction production cost and the pollution that controls environment, realize the cleaner production that methanol ammonoxidation prepares hydrogen cyanide, be of great significance.
Therefore, need the Mo catalyst series to methanol ammonoxidation is prepared in hydrogen cyanide process to improve, it is desirable to obtain a kind of Mo series catalysts, at low ammonia oxygen than under condition, have high product yield, also there is good catalytic activity and stability simultaneously.
Further, find out from above-mentioned composite catalyst patent document, composite catalyst combination is complicated, while obtaining several functions, also there is various problems, in the catalyst the influence of every individual element in performance and weight size unknown, the ratio of more difficult grasp catalyst components.Therefore, need to be devoted to the catalyst that development structure has good result simply, simultaneously.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention is the defect overcoming the existence of above-mentioned prior art, a kind of new Mo catalyst series preparing hydrogen cyanide for methanol ammonoxidation is provided, this catalyst is when the consumption of ammonia to methyl alcohol is low, hydrogen cyanide also has high yield, and catalyst also has activity and the stability of industrial production needs simultaneously.
For this reason, the present invention adopts following technical scheme: a kind of catalyst preparing hydrogen cyanide for methanol ammonoxidation, is characterized in that, described catalyst is made up of the oxide of molybdenum, bismuth and X, and the empirical formula that this catalyst has is: Mo

Wherein, X is the one in Fe, K, Ca, Zn; A, b, c are atomic ratios, and during a=1, b=1 ~ 2.5, c=1 ~ 5, d is the sum of oxygen atom in the corresponding oxide of catalyst component chemical combination generation.
The present invention mainly improves the catalyst taking Mo-Bi as basis.The present inventor carries out finding in the process studied at solution existing issue, mixed the oxide catalyst formed and can be made full use of ammonia by molybdenum, bismuth, iron in the process of methanol ammonoxidation, need the recovery of ammonia hardly, even and if also high yield hydrogen cyanide can be obtained under the condition of low ammonia/methyl alcohol.
The present invention was used as research to component each in catalyst, and find that Bi is the key component of catalytic activity, not containing the catalyst of Bi, hydrogen cyanide yield is very low; And find that Bi proportion of composing in the catalyst has important impact for the activity of catalyst and stability.By the mass ratio that adjustment Bi element occupies in the catalyst, obtain at low ammonia oxygen than condition stability inferior and active all more outstanding catalyst.
Find, containing in the catalyst of Mo, Bi, the element such as Bi and K, Fe, Ca, Zn coexists, and can produce favourable synergy, does not need to add other unnecessary promoter elements simultaneously, just can obtain the effect that we need.
Further, the atomic ratio of described X and Bi is preferably 0.5-3:1, most preferably is 1-2:1.Research finds that the ratio of Bi and X element is very important, excessive the adding of X element, and namely X/Bi ratio is larger, only product yield can be caused to reduce, reduce the utilization to ammonia simultaneously.Therefore, the optimization of the proportionate relationship between the present invention needs by Bi and X element, obtains the catalyst that effect is best.
The mechanism of action for catalyst can from electro transfer angle analysis.In methanol ammonoxidation catalytic oxidation, composition Mo is catalyst body, in methyl alcohol, introduce ammonia, carries whole catalyst and the formation of methanol intermediate complex; Composition Bi, as co-catalyst, plays the effect improving catalyst choice and stability, thus makes the activity that catalyst keeps considerable; Component X (Fe, K, Ca, Zn), as electron deficient element, plays a part in the catalyst to shift oxygen atom, transfers in catalyst by free oxygen molecule, becomes the Lattice Oxygen that can participate in reacting.
Secondly, the invention provides the preparation method of above-mentioned catalyst, its step is as follows: be dissolved in the water by the raw material as catalyst component, adds chelating agent and fully mixes, and heat treatment forms slurry, by slurry spraying dry, obtains catalyst granules; By catalyst granules at 250-400 DEG C of temperature after preliminary calcining 1-10h, at the temperature calcination 1 ~ 12 hour of 500 ~ 800 DEG C;
As the raw material of catalyst molybdenum composition, select in molybdenum oxide, molybdenum chloride, nitric acid molybdenum, carbonic acid molybdenum, oxalic acid molybdenum, molybdenum phosphate one or more, be preferably molybdenum chloride;

The present invention wishes that the preparation method by changing catalyst obtains the good performance of catalyst, found by research and great many of experiments, by adding chelating agent, chelating agent and catalyst is made to produce complex coordination effect, the physical property of catalyst constituent can be changed, thus make catalyst possess more excellent redox ability, reduce the burning of ammonia, thus reduce ammonia ratio.
The initiation material forming catalyst components is the material that just will can become each component oxide in catalyst after chemical treatment, calcination processing.Specifically can select from the various materials such as their oxide, hydroxide, chloride, nitrate and acylate.
Further, as the raw material of catalyst X composition, select in di-iron trioxide, tri-iron tetroxide, calcium oxide, zinc oxide, frerrous chloride, zinc chloride, calcium carbonate, ferric nitrate, oxalates, citrate one or more.
