CoO상 입자를 포함하는 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매 및 이를 이용하여 천연가스로부터 액체 탄화수소를 제조하는 방법Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst comprising CoO phase particles and method for preparing liquid hydrocarbon from natural gas using the same
본 발명은 CoO 상(phase) 입자를 포함하는 분리된 피셔-트롭시 (Fischer-Tropsch, F-T) 합성용 촉매, 이의 제조방법 및 이를 이용하여 천연가스로부터 액체 탄화수소를 제조하는 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a separated Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalyst comprising CoO phase particles, a method for preparing the same, and a method for producing a liquid hydrocarbon from natural gas using the same.
최근의 급변하는 유가 상승 문제에 대처하기 위한 대안책으로서 각광받고 있는 GTL 기술의 개발에 있어서 F-T 합성용 촉매의 개선은 GTL 기술의 경쟁력 향상과 직결되고 있다. 특히, F-T 반응용 촉매의 개선에 따라서 GTL 공정의 열효율 및 카본 활용 효율을 향상할 수 있으며 F-T 반응 공정을 최적화하여 설계할 수도 있게 된다. 이와 같은 F-T 반응을 위해서는 철 및 코발트 계열 등의 촉매가 주로 사용되는데, 코발트 계열 촉매의 특징은 고가인 단점이 있으나, 높은 활성과 긴 수명 그리고 CO2 생성이 낮으면서 액체 파라핀계 탄화수소의 생성 수율이 높은 장점을 지니고 있다. 또한, 고온에서는 CH4을 다량 생산하는 문제가 있어 저온 촉매로만 사용이 가능하며, 고가의 코발트를 사용하기 때문에 알루미나, 실리카, 티타니아 등의 고표면적의 안정적인 지지체 위에 잘 분산시켜야 하며 소량의 Pt, Ru, Re 등의 귀금속 조촉매가 추가로 첨가된 형태로 사용되고 있는 실정이다.In the development of GTL technology, which is in the spotlight as an alternative to cope with the recent rapidly rising oil price problem, the improvement of the catalyst for FT synthesis is directly connected to the improvement of the competitiveness of the GTL technology. In particular, according to the improvement of the catalyst for FT reaction, the thermal efficiency and carbon utilization efficiency of the GTL process can be improved, and the FT reaction process can be optimized and designed. Iron and cobalt-based catalysts are mainly used for the FT reaction, but the characteristics of the cobalt-based catalysts are expensive, but they have high activity, long lifespan, and low production of CO 2 while producing low yields of liquid paraffinic hydrocarbons. It has a high advantage. In addition, there is a problem of producing a large amount of CH 4 at high temperatures, it can be used only as a low-temperature catalyst, and because expensive cobalt is used, it must be well dispersed on a high surface area stable support such as alumina, silica, titania, and a small amount of Pt, Ru It is a situation that is used in the form of addition of a noble metal promoter, such as, Re.
GTL 공정은 천연가스의 개질(reforming) 반응, 합성가스의 F-T 합성반응 및 생성물의 개질 반응과 같이 3단계의 주요 공정으로 구성되어 있으며, 이 중에서 철 및 코발트를 촉매로 사용하여 200℃ 내지 350℃의 반응 온도와 10기압 내지 30기압의 압력에서 수행되는 F-T 반응은 다음과 같이 4개의 주요 반응으로 설명될 수 있다.The GTL process consists of three main processes: reforming reaction of natural gas, FT synthesis reaction of synthesis gas, and reforming reaction of product. Among them, iron and cobalt are used as catalysts, and the temperature is 200 ° C to 350 ° C. The reaction temperature of and the FT reaction carried out at a pressure of 10 to 30 atm can be described as four main reactions as follows.

일반적으로 F-T 합성용 촉매는 산화물 촉매이다. 따라서, F-T 합성용 촉매의 환원 특성은 촉매 반응을 결정하는 매우 중요한 요소 중 하나이다.Generally, the catalyst for F-T synthesis is an oxide catalyst. Therefore, the reduction properties of the catalyst for F-T synthesis are one of the very important factors in determining the catalytic reaction.
일반적으로 제조된 코발트 촉매는 Co3O4상을 가지고 있으며, F-T 반응을 수행하기 앞서 수소를 이용하여 300 - 500℃의 온도에서 산화코발트를 환원시키는 단계를 거치게 된다. 산화코발트의 환원 과정은 다음 2 단계로 나타낼 수 있다. In general, the prepared cobalt catalyst has a Co 3 O 4 phase, and undergoes a step of reducing cobalt oxide at a temperature of 300 to 500 ° C. using hydrogen before performing the FT reaction. The reduction process of cobalt oxide can be represented by the following two steps.
1단계: Co3O4 + 4H2 → 3CoO + 4H20Step 1: Co 3 O 4 + 4H 2 → 3CoO + 4H 2 0
2단계: CoO + H2 → Co + H2O Step 2: CoO + H 2 → Co + H 2 O
기존 코발트계 F-T 합성용 촉매의 제조방법으로는 함침법 또는 공침법이 있으며, 상기 방법으로 제조된 촉매의 경우는 소성과정을 통해 촉매 산화물이 형성된다. 즉, Co3O4상을 가지게 되며 상기 촉매는 지지체와의 강한 상호작용을 하기 때문에 산화 코발트의 환원온도가 높다. Existing cobalt-based FT synthesis of the catalyst is a method of impregnation or coprecipitation method, the catalyst produced by the above method is a catalyst oxide is formed through the calcination process. That is, it has a Co 3 O 4 phase and the catalyst has a high reduction temperature of cobalt oxide because the catalyst has a strong interaction with the support.
한국 등록특허 제10-1015492호는 기존 촉매 제조방법과 상이한 촉매 제조방법을 제시하였다. 이는 지지체와 활성 물질과의 상호작용을 적게 하는 동시에 활성 성분 입자의 크기를 조절함으로써, 일산화탄소의 선택도를 조절할 수 있다고 기재되어 있다. 그러나, 상기 특허에서 제시된 방법으로 제조된 촉매 역시 Co3O4상으로 이루어져, F-T 반응에 사용되기 전 두 단계 환원 반응을 거쳐야 하는 한계가 있었다. Korean Patent No. 10-1015492 proposed a catalyst production method different from the existing catalyst production method. It is described that the selectivity of carbon monoxide can be controlled by controlling the size of the active ingredient particles while reducing the interaction of the support with the active material. However, the catalyst prepared by the method proposed in the patent also consists of a Co 3 O 4 phase, there was a limit to go through a two-stage reduction reaction before being used for the FT reaction.
F-T 촉매의 활성을 결정하는 중요한 요인은 분산도와 환원율이다. 입자의 크기가 작아서 분산도가 높은 경우에는, F-T 촉매의 안정성이 낮아지며 촉매활성이 낮고 메탄 생성이 많아지는 문제점이 있다. 또한 입자의 크기가 너무 커서 환원율이 높은 경우에는 분산도가 낮아 촉매의 활성이 저해된다. 따라서, 적절한 입자크기를 가지며 분산도와 환원율이 높은 촉매가 우수한 촉매라고 할 수 있다.Important factors that determine the activity of the F-T catalyst are dispersion and reduction rate. When the particle size is small and the dispersion degree is high, there is a problem that the stability of the F-T catalyst is low, the catalytic activity is low, and the methane production is increased. In addition, when the particle size is too large and the reduction rate is high, the degree of dispersion is low and the activity of the catalyst is inhibited. Therefore, a catalyst having an appropriate particle size and high dispersibility and reduction rate can be said to be an excellent catalyst.
이에, 본 발명자들은 활성 및 액체탄화수소의 선택도가 최적화된 코발트계 촉매에 대해 연구하던 중, CoO상이 포함된 코발트 나노입자를 제조하는 방법을 고안하였으며, 이를 촉매 지지체에 담지하여 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매를 제조하는 경우, 낮은 온도에서 높은 환원 특성과 우수한 분산도를 나타내어, 기존 제조방법에 비해 뛰어난 촉매 활성을 보이는 것을 확인하고 본 발명을 완성하였다. 본 발명은 이에 기초한 것이다.Accordingly, the present inventors devised a method for preparing cobalt nanoparticles containing a CoO phase, while studying the cobalt-based catalysts with optimized activity and selectivity of liquid hydrocarbons, and supported them on a catalyst support for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. In the case of preparing a catalyst for the catalyst, the present invention exhibited excellent reduction activity and excellent dispersibility at low temperature, and showed excellent catalytic activity compared to the conventional production method, thus completing the present invention. The present invention is based on this.

이하 본 발명을 자세히 설명한다. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
일반적으로 기존 코발트 촉매는 Co3O4 상으로 제조되기 때문에, F-T 반응기에 적용된 후, F-T 반응을 수행하기 전, 300 - 500℃의 고온의 수소분위기 하에서 환원에 의해 코발트 금속(Co)으로 활성화되어야 한다. In general, since the existing cobalt catalyst is prepared in Co 3 O 4 phase, it must be activated to cobalt metal (Co) by reduction under high temperature hydrogen atmosphere of 300-500 ° C. after being applied to the FT reactor and before performing the FT reaction. do.
코발트 산화물 제조시 캡핑된 코발트가 함유된 유기용매층을 230℃ 내지 350℃에서 가열하는 경우 CoO 상 입자를 함유하는 코발트 촉매를 제조할 수 있다는 것을 발견하였으며, 본 발명은 이에 기초한 것이다. It has been found that the cobalt catalyst containing CoO phase particles can be prepared when the capped cobalt-containing organic solvent layer is heated at 230 ° C. to 350 ° C. in the preparation of cobalt oxide, and the present invention is based on this.
캡핑된 코발트가 함유된 유기용매층을 300℃에서 가열하는 경우(실시예 1-1) 형성된 코발트 산화물 나노입자가 모두 CoO 상으로만 이루어졌다. 한편, 캡핑된 코발트가 함유된 유기용매층을 270℃에서 가열하는 경우(실시예 2) 코발트 산화물 나노입자 중 CoO 상의 함량이 70%이었고, 230℃에서 가열하는 경우(실시예 3) CoO 상의 함량이 30%이었으며, 200℃에서 가열하는 경우(비교예 1) 코발트 산화물 나노입자는 모두 Co3O4 상으로만 이루어졌다. 즉, 캡핑된 코발트가 함유된 유기용매층의 가열 온도가 270℃ 이하로 낮아질수록 CoO 상의 함량이 낮아지고 Co3O4 상의 함량이 높아졌다. 또한, 코발트 산화물 나노 입자 중 CoO 상이 존재하는 실시예 1 내지 4의 촉매를 400℃에서 소성한 결과(비교예 6 내지 9) 모두 Co3O4상이 100% 인 촉매로 되었다.When the capped cobalt-containing organic solvent layer was heated at 300 ° C. (Example 1-1), all of the formed cobalt oxide nanoparticles consisted of only CoO phase. Meanwhile, when the capped cobalt-containing organic solvent layer was heated at 270 ° C. (Example 2), the content of CoO phase in the cobalt oxide nanoparticles was 70%, and when heated at 230 ° C. (Example 3), the content of CoO phase This was 30%, and when heated at 200 ° C. (Comparative Example 1), the cobalt oxide nanoparticles were all composed of Co 3 O 4 phase only. That is, as the heating temperature of the capped cobalt-containing organic solvent layer was lowered below 270 ° C, the content of CoO phase was lowered and the content of Co 3 O 4 phase was higher. In addition, as a result of calcining the catalysts of Examples 1 to 4 in which the CoO phase is present in the cobalt oxide nanoparticles at 400 ° C. (Comparative Examples 6 to 9), the catalysts were 100% of the Co 3 O 4 phase.
따라서, 본 발명은 F-T 반응기에 적용되기 전, 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매 및/또는 지지체에 담지하는 촉매 유효성분이, CoO 상(phase) 입자들을 일부 또는 전부 포함하는 코발트 산화물 입자들인 것이 특징이다. 따라서, 본 발명에 따라 제조된 촉매는 별도의 소성과정 없이 수소로 환원되어 활성화될 수 있다. 상기 환원은 촉매를 고정층, 유동층 또는 슬러리 반응기에 적용시킨 후 100℃ 내지 500℃의 온도 범위의 수소 분위기하에서 이루어질 수 있다. 또한, 본 발명에 따라 제조된 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매는 낮은 환원 온도에서도 높은 활성을 나타내고, 일산화탄소의 높은 전환율과 액체탄화수소로의 안정적인 선택성 및 촉매의 비활성화를 억제할 수 있다.Accordingly, the present invention is characterized in that, before being applied to the F-T reactor, the catalyst active ingredient supported on the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst and / or the support is cobalt oxide particles containing some or all of CoO phase particles. Therefore, the catalyst prepared according to the present invention can be reduced and activated with hydrogen without a separate firing process. The reduction may be carried out in a hydrogen atmosphere in the temperature range of 100 ℃ to 500 ℃ after applying the catalyst to a fixed bed, fluidized bed or slurry reactor.

In the present invention, "separate Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst" refers to a catalyst state that can be directly synthesized and transported and / or distributed before being applied to the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reactor, and according to the Fischer- The catalyst for Tropsch synthesis is synthesized in a CoO phase prior to application to the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reactor, and then applied to the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reactor, and then the precursor of CoO is fischer-Tropsch by Co reduction. It becomes a catalyst for synthesis.
또한, 본 발명은 F-T 반응기에 적용되기 전 미리 코발트계 촉매 성분을 최적의 크기로 제조하고 CoO 상을 포함하는 나노입자로 제조하여 이를 촉매 지지체에 담지할 수 있으므로, 분산도가 높고 낮은 온도에서 환원이 쉽게 일어나게 할 수 있다. In addition, the present invention can prepare the cobalt-based catalyst component in the optimum size before the application to the FT reactor, and can be prepared by the nanoparticles containing the CoO phase and supported on the catalyst support, high dispersion degree and reduced at low temperature You can make this happen easily.

제2단계의 바람직한 캡핑 반응온도는 40 내지 110℃인 것이 바람직하다. 40℃ 미만이면 촉매성분의 캡핑이 완전히 이루어지지 않아서 촉매성분이 수용액층에서 유기용매층으로 분리가 효과적으로 일어나지 않고, 110℃를 초과하는 경우에는 반응온도가 용액의 끓는점보다 높아 제조가 어려운 문제가 발생한다.Preferred capping reaction temperature of the second step is preferably 40 to 110 ℃. If the temperature is less than 40 ° C, the catalyst component is not completely capped, so that the catalyst component does not effectively separate from the aqueous solution layer into the organic solvent layer. If the temperature exceeds 110 ° C, the reaction temperature is higher than the boiling point of the solution, making manufacturing difficult. do.
제3 단계에서 바람직한 가열 온도 범위는 230℃ 내지 350℃이며, 보다 바람직하게는 230℃ 내지 300℃이다. 230℃ 미만이면 CoO가 형성되지 않고 결정화 반응이 약해 생성되는 결정의 크기가 너무 작아지는 문제점이 있다. 또한 350℃를 초과하는 경우 결정의 크기가 너무 커져 나노촉매로 적합하지 않을 수 있다. The preferred heating temperature range in the third step is 230 ° C to 350 ° C, more preferably 230 ° C to 300 ° C. If it is less than 230 ° C, there is a problem in that CoO is not formed and the crystallization reaction is weak so that the size of crystals produced is too small. In addition, when the temperature exceeds 350 ° C., the size of the crystal may be too large to be suitable as a nanocatalyst.
추가로, 형성된 CoO 상 입자들이 포함된 용액은, 극성 유기용매와 혼합시켜 캡핑된 입자를 침전시켜 추출한 후, 이를 재분산하여 유기용매에 분산된 코발트 산화물(CoO) 입자를 수득할 수 있다. 상기 추출 용매로 사용되는 극성 유기 용매의 비제한적인 예는, 메탄올, 에탄올, 아세톤, 아세토나이트릴 또는 이의 혼합물일 수 있다. In addition, the solution containing the CoO phase particles formed may be mixed with a polar organic solvent to precipitate and capped particles, and then redispersed to obtain cobalt oxide (CoO) particles dispersed in the organic solvent. Non-limiting examples of the polar organic solvent used as the extraction solvent may be methanol, ethanol, acetone, acetonitrile or mixtures thereof.
본 발명의 제조방법에 따라 형성될 수 있는 CoO 상 입자들의 평균직경은 5 내지 50 nm일 수 있으며, 보다 바람직하게는 10 내지 20 nm 범위일 수 있다. 10 nm 미만이면 촉매 지지체와 상호작용에 의해 피셔-트롭시 반응 활성점인 금속으로의 환원이 어려워진다. 따라서, 촉매로서 활성이 낮아지며, 액체탄화수소로의 선택도가 감소하는 반면 부산물인 메탄의 생성이 많아진다. 반면, 20 nm를 초과하는 경우 촉매 표면적에 비해 벌크 부피가 커지므로, 촉매 작용점인 표면적이 상대적으로 작아지고, 촉매의 활성이 줄어드는 문제점이 있다. The average diameter of the CoO phase particles which may be formed according to the preparation method of the present invention may be 5 to 50 nm, more preferably 10 to 20 nm range. If it is less than 10 nm, it becomes difficult to reduce to the metal which is Fischer-Tropsch reaction active point by interaction with a catalyst support. Thus, the activity is lowered as a catalyst, while the selectivity to liquid hydrocarbons is reduced while the production of by-product methane is increased. On the other hand, when it exceeds 20 nm, since the bulk volume is larger than the surface area of the catalyst, there is a problem in that the surface area, which is the catalytic action point, is relatively small and the activity of the catalyst is reduced.
본 발명의 제조방법에 따라 형성될 수 있는 촉매 성분 내 CoO 상 입자들의 함량은 촉매 성분인 코발트 산화물 100중량부를 기준으로 10중량부 내지 100중량부일 수 있다.

If it is less than 3 parts by weight, there is a problem that the reactivity decreases because there is not enough active ingredient to exhibit reactivity in Fischer Trop. On the other hand, if it exceeds 40 parts by weight, the catalyst manufacturing cost is increased and the economical efficiency is lowered, the particle size of the catalyst is increased and the specific surface area of the catalyst is reduced, there is a problem that the activity of Fischer Trop drop.
상기 지지체는 감마-알루미나, 실리카, 티타니아, 개질된 감마-알루미나, 개질된 실리카, 개질된 티타니아, 또는 이의 혼합물일 수 있다. 개질된 지지체는 지지체의 물리-화학적 성능을 개선하거나 촉매의 분산도를 개선하고 촉매 안정성을 증진하는 효과를 나타내며, 예를 들면 실리카나 알루미나 지지체에 지르코니아를 처리함으로서 촉매활성이 크게 증진된다.The support may be gamma-alumina, silica, titania, modified gamma-alumina, modified silica, modified titania, or mixtures thereof. The modified support has the effect of improving the physico-chemical performance of the support or improving the dispersion of the catalyst and enhancing the catalyst stability. For example, the catalytic activity is greatly enhanced by treating zirconia on silica or alumina support.
CoO 상(phase) 입자들을 일부 또는 전부 포함하는 코발트 입자들을 지지체에 담지하기 위해, 상기 코발트 입자들을 비극성 용매에 재분산한 후, 지지체에 함침시킬 수 있다. 이때 비극성 용매는 끓는점이 낮은 용매를 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 상기 비극성 용매를 상온 내지 70℃의 온도에서 제거하고, 담지된 촉매를 80 내지 200℃의 온도에서 건조하여 최종적으로 지지체에 담지된 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매를 제조할 수 있다. In order to support the cobalt particles containing some or all of the CoO phase particles on the support, the cobalt particles may be redispersed in a nonpolar solvent and then impregnated into the support. In this case, it is preferable to use a solvent having a low boiling point as the nonpolar solvent. The non-polar solvent may be removed at a temperature of from room temperature to 70 ° C., and the supported catalyst may be dried at a temperature of 80 to 200 ° C. to finally prepare a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst supported on a support.

The noble metal acts as a promoter to improve the activity of the catalyst. The content of the noble metal is preferably 0.01 parts by weight to 1 part by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the catalyst.

즉, 상기 표를 통해 알 수 있듯이 코발트 나노입자의 담지량이 10% 내지 30% 사이일 때 코발트 산화물 환원도 및 CO 전환율이 우수하였다. 실시예 4 내지 6에서, CoO의 담지량이 증가할수록 촉매 활성과 C5+ 선택성이 증가하였다. 반면, 코발트 나노입자의 담지량이 너무 작은 경우(2%, 비교예 4)에는 촉매활성과 선택도가 감소하였으며, 코발트 나노입자의 담지량이 큰 경우(50%, 비교예 5)에도 실시예 4 내지 6에 비하여 CO 전환율이 낮음을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 바람직한 코발트 나노입자의 담지량이 10% 내지 30%임을 확인할 수 있었다. That is, as can be seen through the above table, the cobalt oxide reduction and CO conversion were excellent when the supported amount of cobalt nanoparticles was between 10% and 30%. In Examples 4 to 6, as the amount of CoO supported, the catalytic activity and C5 + selectivity increased. On the other hand, when the supported amount of cobalt nanoparticles was too small (2%, Comparative Example 4), the catalytic activity and selectivity decreased, and even when the supported amount of cobalt nanoparticles was large (50%, Comparative Example 5) Compared to 6 it was confirmed that the CO conversion rate is low.

상기 표를 통해 알 수 있듯이, 실시예 1 내지 4에서 제조된 촉매를 소성하자 모두 Co3O4상이 100% 인 촉매로 되었다. 상기 Co3O4 상으로만 이루어진 촉매는 입자의 크기가 소성 전에 비하여 커졌으며, CO 전환율이 소성 전에 비하여 절반 이하로 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 소성을 한 촉매는 소성을 하지 않은 촉매보다 촉매활성이 낮음을 확인할 수 있었다. As can be seen from the table, when the catalysts prepared in Examples 1 to 4 were calcined, all of them were catalysts having a Co 3 O 4 phase of 100%. The catalyst consisting of only the Co 3 O 4 phase was larger than the size of the particles before firing, it was confirmed that the CO conversion is reduced to less than half compared to before firing. In other words, the calcined catalyst was found to have lower catalytic activity than the uncalcined catalyst.
또한, 소성을 한 경우 Co 분산도가 2.5 미만으로 현저하게 감소함을 확인할 수 있었다. 소성을 하지 않은 실시예 1 내지 3의 분산도가 3.5 이상이었던 것에 비해 이는 현저하게 작은 수치로서, 소성을 통해 입자들의 응집이 일어났기 때문으로 판단된다. 즉, 기존 Co3O4 촉매는 고온 소성을 거쳐야 하므로 분산도가 떨어지게 되지만, 본원발명의 CoO 상을 포함하는 촉매는 소성과정 없이 환원되어 사용되므로 높은 분산도를 유지할 수 있음을 확인하였다.In addition, it was confirmed that Co dispersion significantly decreased to less than 2.5 when calcined. The dispersity of Examples 1 to 3, which did not fire, was 3.5 or more, which is a remarkably small value, which is considered to be due to the aggregation of particles through firing. That is, the existing Co 3 O 4 catalyst has a high degree of sintering, so that the dispersibility is reduced, but it was confirmed that the catalyst including the CoO phase of the present invention can be used without reduction because it can maintain a high degree of dispersion.
