The inventor finds in experiments that compared with pure metal catalysts, metal carbides have better catalytic activity for rWGS reaction, however, the catalysts have uneven activity for reverse water-gas shift reaction, have larger difference in selectivity, and particularly, some catalysts are seriously deactivated after reaction, so that the stability state is difficult to maintain. Based on the above, the invention provides a transition metal-carbon-based catalyst with good catalytic activity, high selectivity and good stability and a preparation method thereof.
A first aspect of the present invention provides a transition metal-carbon based catalyst comprising a doped carbon-based support and an active component supported on the doped carbon-based support;
the doping element in the doped carbon-based carrier comprises any one or more of nitrogen, phosphorus and boron, the active component comprises nanoclusters formed from non-noble transition metal carbides, and the active component has non-stoichiometric defects.
The non-stoichiometric defect refers to a defect generated by deviation of positive and negative ion compositions of some compounds from normal stoichiometry due to the influence of external conditions. In this embodiment, the first neighbor metal coordination of the central atom of the active component in the transition metal-carbon based catalyst is significantly reduced, while the non-metal coordination is significantly increased, compared to the unsupported active component, demonstrating the abundance of non-stoichiometric defective active centers due to the doped carbon-based support loading.
In some embodiments, the mass percentage of non-noble transition metal elements in the transition metal-carbon based catalyst is 10% -70%. For example, the mass percent of the non-noble transition metal element may be, but is not limited to, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70% or any two of these values.

Too low a mass percentage of doping elements will cause the carrier particle size to become large, and too high a mass percentage will affect the carrier structure. The carbon-based carrier is doped, so that the active components are fixed and dispersed, the agglomeration and deactivation of the active components are avoided, the transition metal-carbon-based catalyst has good stability under the reverse water-gas shift reaction condition, and the stable catalytic activity can be maintained for a long time.

In some of these embodiments, the pyrolysis temperature may be, but is not limited to, 600 ℃, 650 ℃, 700 ℃, 750 ℃, 800 ℃, 850 ℃, 900 ℃, or a range consisting of any two of these values.

In some embodiments, the drying step is performed at a temperature of 50-100 ℃ for a time of 12-48 hours. Alternatively, the drying temperature may be, but is not limited to, 50 ℃, 55 ℃, 60 ℃, 65 ℃, 70 ℃, 75 ℃, 80 ℃, 85 ℃, 90 ℃, 95 ℃, 100 ℃, or a range consisting of any two of these values. The drying time may be, but is not limited to, 12h, 18h, 24h, 30h, 36h, 42h, 48h or a range of any two of these values.
Specifically, in one embodiment, the preparation steps of the nitrogen-doped biochar include: mixing lignin, urea and sodium bicarbonate in a mass ratio of (0.5-1): (2-5): (1-3), heating to 600-900 ℃ at a speed of 3-20 ℃/min under an inert atmosphere, pyrolyzing at 600-900 ℃ for 1-4 hours, then washing with acid, washing with water until the pH of the solution is neutral, and then drying at 50-100 ℃ for 12-48 hours to prepare the nitrogen-doped biochar.
Further, the particle size of the nitrogen-doped biochar is 2-10 mu m, the specific surface area is 200m per gram-700 m per gram, and the pore diameter is 0.1-5 nm. Nanoclusters formed from non-noble transition metal carbides are supported in the pore structure of the nitrogen-doped biochar.
It can be understood that the doped carbon-based carrier can also be phosphorus doped biochar or boron doped biochar, and in the preparation process, a phosphorus source and a boron source are used for replacing the nitrogen source, so that the description is omitted.

In some embodiments, the nitrogen-doped graphene has a particle size of 2-10 μm and a specific surface area of 200-2000 m/g. Further, the nitrogen-doped graphene has a single-layer structure, and the thickness of the single layer is 1 nm-3 nm. The transition metal-carbon based catalyst described above has at least the following advantages:
The transition metal-carbon-based catalyst comprises a doped carbon-based carrier and an active ingredient loaded on the doped carbon-based carrier, wherein the doped carbon-based carrier is beneficial to improving non-stoichiometric defects in non-noble transition metal carbide nanoclusters, and CO is greatly improved through abundant non-stoichiometric defect reaction active sites 2 The activation and selective hydrogenation efficiency still have higher catalytic activity and CO selectivity under the reaction conditions of lower temperature range and high hydrogen-carbon ratio. In addition, the doped carbon-based carrier is beneficial to fixing and dispersing active components, and avoids agglomeration and inactivation of the active components, so that the transition metal-carbon-based catalyst has good stability under the reverse water-gas shift reaction condition, and can maintain stable catalytic activity for a long time.

For Mo prepared in example 1 2 C@NGn catalyst and Mo prepared in comparative example 1 2 C@SiO 2 Catalyst and Mo prepared in comparative example 4 2 The catalyst C was subjected to synchrotron radiation extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) and the average coordination number of the metal atoms M was calculated to obtain the data shown in Table 2 below. As can be seen from table 2, on the surface of the nitrogen-doped graphene carrier, the first neighboring metal coordination of the central atom is significantly reduced, while the non-metal coordination is significantly increased, demonstrating the rich defect active center generated by the nitrogen-doped graphene carrier. Less loaded and with SiO 2 Catalytic system as support, mo 2 The catalytic performance of the C@NGn is obviously improved, which indicates that the metal active center is a potential source of catalytic activity. The combination of the data shows that the two carbon carrier catalytic systems related by the invention have good catalytic activity, the cost of the nitrogen-doped biochar carrier catalytic system is only 5% of that of the nitrogen-doped graphene catalytic system, a cheaper solution is provided, and the method has wide application prospect.

In the above examples, the nitrogen-doped carbon-based carrier is taken as an example, and the phosphorus-doped or boron-doped carbon-based carrier has the same properties as the nitrogen-doped carbon-based carrier, and can also fix and disperse the active components, so as to avoid agglomeration and deactivation of the active components, so that the transition metal-carbon-based catalyst has good stability under the reverse water-gas shift reaction condition, and the doped carbon-based carrier is beneficial to improving the non-stoichiometric defects in the non-noble transition metal carbide nanoclusters compared with the undoped carbon-based carrier, and greatly improves the CO through abundant non-stoichiometric defect reaction active sites 2 The activation and selective hydrogenation efficiency still have higher catalytic activity and CO selectivity under the reaction conditions of lower temperature range and high hydrogen-carbon ratio.
