Description

Verfahren zur Herstellung von Olefinen durch Umsetzung von Kohlenmonoxid mit Wasserstoff Process for the preparation of olefins by reaction of carbon monoxide with hydrogen
Beschreibungdescription
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Olefinen durch Umsetzung von Kohlenmonoxid mit Wasserstoff in Gegenwart eines eisenhaltigen Heterogenkatalysators.The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of olefins by reacting carbon monoxide with hydrogen in the presence of a ferrous heterogeneous catalyst.
Es ist bekannt, dass niedrigere Olefine aus Kohlenmonoxid (CO) und Wasserstoff (H2) an Metallkatalysatoren, z. B. Eisen- oder Kobalt-Katalysatoren, hergestellt werden können. Als Katalysatorvorläufer werden üblicherweise Eisenoxide eingesetzt. Solche Katalysatoren sind z. B. in US 4,544,674, US 5,100,856, US 5,1 18,715, US 5,248,701 , US 2004/0127582 A1 , H.P. Withers et al., Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 1990, 29, Seiten 1807 bis 1814, und M.E. Dry et al., Stud. Surf. Sei. Catal., Vol. 152, 2004, Seiten 533 bis 600, beschrieben.It is known that lower olefins of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) on metal catalysts, eg. As iron or cobalt catalysts can be produced. As catalyst precursors usually iron oxides are used. Such catalysts are z. In US 4,544,674, US 5,100,856, US 5,118,715, US 5,248,701, US 2004/0127582 A1, H.P. Withers et al., Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 1990, 29, pages 1807 to 1814, and M.E. Dry et al., Stud Surf. Be. Catal., Vol. 152, 2004, pages 533-600.
Diese Umsetzung wird auch Fischer-Tropsch-Synthese genannt.This reaction is also called Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
Herkömmliche Verfahren zur Fischer-Tropsch-Synthese produzieren Kohlenwasserstoffe in einem breiten Bereich der Produktverteilung.Conventional Fischer-Tropsch synthesis processes produce hydrocarbons in a broad range of product distribution.
Grundsätzlich kann dieser Bereich der Produktverteilung durch die sog. Anderson- Schulz-Flory-Verteilung charakterisiert werden. Vergl. auch: M. Janardanarao, Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 1990, 29, Seiten 1735-53.Basically, this area of product distribution can be characterized by the so-called Anderson-Schulz-Flory distribution. Comp. also: M. Janardanarao, Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 1990, 29, pages 1735-53.
Ebenso ist bekannt, dass die Zusammensetzung der beim Fischer-Tropsch-Prozess gebildeten Kohlenwasserstoffe durch die Wahl der eingesetzten Katalysatoren, der Reaktortypen und der Reaktionsbedingungen stark beeinflusst werden kann.It is also known that the composition of the hydrocarbons formed in the Fischer-Tropsch process can be greatly influenced by the choice of catalysts used, the reactor types and the reaction conditions.
Z. B. ist bekannt, dass die Produktverteilung durch Anwendung von hohen Temperaturen in Gegenwart modifizierter Eisenkatalysatoren in Richtung niedrigere Olefine verschoben werden kann: B. Büssemeier et al., Hydrocarbon Processing, Nov. 1976, Seiten 105 bis 1 12. Hauptproblem ist hier die Bildung großer Mengen an unerwünschtem Methan (CH4). Darüber hinaus sind die erforderlichen Eisenoxide als Ausgangsstoff für den Katalysator schwierig zu reduzieren.For example, it is known that the product distribution can be shifted towards lower olefins by the use of high temperatures in the presence of modified iron catalysts: B. Büssemeier et al., Hydrocarbon Processing, Nov. 1976, pages 105 to 12. The main problem here is the formation of large Amounts of undesirable methane (CH 4 ).

DE-A1-28 22 656 offenbart ein Fischer-Tropsch-Verfahren, wobei man den Katalysator durch Niederschlagen eines metallorganischen Eisen- und/oder Kobalt- und/oder Ni- ckel-Aggregats auf einem anorganischen Träger erhält. Das Niederschlagen des Aggregats auf dem Träger wird durch Imprägnieren des Trägers mit einer Lösung des Aggregats bewirkt. Nach diesem Verfahren sollen selektiv C2-C4-Olefine („leichte Olefine") und nur geringe Mengen an Methan entstehen. Der Hauptnachteil dieser Kataly- satoren besteht darin, dass die aktiven Katalysatorbestandteile unter den Reaktionsbedingungen flüchtig sein können, was einen Metallverlust bedeutet, und dass sie toxisch sind.DE-A1-28 22 656 discloses a Fischer-Tropsch process, wherein the catalyst is obtained by precipitating an organometallic iron and / or cobalt and / or nickel aggregate on an inorganic support. The precipitation of the aggregate on the carrier is effected by impregnating the carrier with a solution of the aggregate. According to this process, selective C2-C4 olefins ("light olefins") and only small amounts of methane are formed. It is believed that the active catalyst components can be volatile under the reaction conditions, meaning metal loss, and that they are toxic.
