- the pore size distribution of the OMC thus obtained was measured in FIG. 1A and the TEM image in FIG. 1B.
- the OMC obtained had a surface area of about 1500 m 2 / g, a pore size of about 4 nm, and a very uniform array of linear pore structures.
- the carbon material produced using SBA-15 as a template is also referred to as CMK-3.
- OMC (CMK-3) prepared in Preparation Example 1 was treated with 1M aqueous nitric acid solution at room temperature for about 30 minutes. After washing and drying, the nitrate cobalt precursor was made into an ethanol solution so that about 20 wt% of cobalt catalyst particles were impregnated into the OMC pores by the incipient wetness impregnation method. Because the volume of the pores is limited, two or three impregnation processes are performed, and each impregnation process is followed by a drying process. At the time of impregnation, the capillary force is used to the maximum, and when impregnation is not performed well, the OMC support is vacuum-treated as necessary, or sonication is performed at the same time.
- the dried catalyst was calcined at 400 ° C. for 5 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere to produce cobalt oxide crystals of a size similar to or slightly smaller than that of mesoporous pores.
- the prepared cobalt oxide crystals are shown in FIG. 2.
- an elemental analysis image of the prepared cobalt catalyst is shown in FIG. 3. Through this, it can be seen that the cobalt oxide crystals were manufactured in a very constant size, and the arrangement was also very orderly under the influence of the OMC pores.
- the size of the cobalt oxide crystals obtained was about 4 nm, similar to the pore size. References R. D. Jones, C. H. Bartholomew, Appl. Catal.
- the catalyst is reduced to activate the cobalt oxide, reducing its size to about 75% as the cobalt oxide is reduced to cobalt metal. Therefore, the catalyst prepared in this example does not significantly inhibit the movement and diffusion of the reactants or products, which was confirmed by the performance verification of the catalyst thereafter.
- a 10 wt%, 15 wt cobalt-containing CMK-3 supported catalyst was prepared using the same method as the preparation method of Example 2, except that the weight content of the cobalt metal in the final catalyst particles was less than 20 wt%.
- the CMK-3 supported catalyst containing 10 wt% of cobalt metal was designated as 10 Co / CMK-3 and the CMK-3 supported catalyst containing 15 wt% of 15 Co / CMK-3.
- the TPR (temperature programmed reduction) profile and the H 2 uptake profile of each catalyst were measured and shown in FIG. 5.
- the low peak of the reduced peak is appeared at 150 °C to 350 °C
- the high peak of the reduction peak is appeared at 350 °C to 900 °C
- the amount of H 2 uptake was increased when the amount of cobalt loading.
- the reduction profile was divided into two parts, the peak in the low temperature region increased while the cobalt loading amount increased, while the peak in the high temperature region decreased. This is because, when the amount of cobalt supported is large, the interaction between the support and the catalyst material is weakened, thereby increasing the reducibility.
- a cobalt-based catalyst was prepared by supporting a cobalt precursor on a gamma-alumina support.
- the gamma-alumina used was alumina having a pore volume of 0.5 ml / g, pore size of 9-10 nm, and a surface area of about 170 m 2 / g measured by the BET method.
- the impregnation method was used to form Co / ⁇ -Al 2 O 3 .
- Catalyst particles were prepared. A TEM image of the prepared catalyst particles is shown in FIG. 5. XRD analysis showed that the average size of the cobalt oxide crystals in the prepared catalyst particles was about 14.4 nm, but the size of the cobalt oxide in black was not constant. It was also confirmed that the shape was obtained irregularly.
- the size of the resulting oxide crystal was about 14.4 nm, resulting in oxide crystals larger than the pore size.
- the metal oxide crystals are not only generated within the pores of the support but also outside the pores. This can be seen in the TEM image of Figure 6, it can be seen that the crystals are formed in the form of agglomeration or agglomerates on the surface of the alumina support.
- a cobalt catalyst was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that MSU-F-C was used as the porous carbon material (20 Co / MSU-F-C).
- MSU-F-C is synthesized from “MSU-F-silica”, a mesoporous silica, and is a mesocellular structured porous carbon material having a large pore of about 30 nm and a small pore of 4 to 8 nm.
- a TEM image of the 20 Co / MSU-F-C prepared above is shown in FIG. 7. The CoO crystal size was 8.7 nm at 20 Co / MSU-F-C.
- the nanoparticles are much smaller than the large pores, so the confinement effect is negligible. Due to the weak confinement effect and the inert properties of carbon, cobalt nanocrystals have very weak interactions with the carbon support, and the weak confinement effect and the inert properties of carbon cause agglomeration or sintering of the nanoparticles during catalyst preparation or FT synthesis.
- a catalyst was prepared in the same manner as in Comparative Example 2, but containing 0.05 wt% of Pt as a cocatalyst component and a cobalt content of 23 wt%.
- Table 1 shows the sizes of the catalysts prepared in Example 2, Comparative Examples 2 and 3.
- the 20 Co / CMK-3 catalyst of the present invention has a CO conversion rate, C 5 compared to the catalyst content (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) is less than this + Selectivity and productivity (FT activity) was found to be higher. This is because if the crystal size of the catalyst metal does not grow to a certain size, the metal crystals are easily oxidized or sintered by the water generated as the extreme heat of reaction and by-products during the reaction, thereby greatly deactivating the activity.
- the catalyst content of less than 20% of the catalyst is also lower than the conventionally widely used alumina support catalyst (20 Co / ⁇ -Al 2 O 3 ).
- the conventionally widely used alumina support catalyst (20 Co / ⁇ -Al 2 O 3 ).
- 10 Co / CMK-3 and 15 Co / CMK-3 have a small amount of cobalt added compared to 20 Co / ⁇ -Al 2 O 3
- the value of the FT activity for calculating the yield compared to the cobalt metal added is similar or higher. high.
- 20 Co / CMK-3 of the present invention has excellent performance in all aspects such as conversion rate, C 5+ selectivity, and productivity (FT activity), compared to conventional alumina supported catalysts, and has a low metal content of catalyst (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) also showed excellent performance in all aspects.
- the conversion rate was higher than that of the alumina supported catalyst to which the promoter was additionally added, and the performance was superior to the catalyst supported on the MSU-FC.
- Fischer Tropsch synthesis reaction was carried out in the same manner as in Example 3, FT activity was measured over time and shown in FIG. As a result, the 20 Co / CMK-3 of the present invention was the most excellent FT activity, and remains stable after 35 hours, it was confirmed that the reoxidation does not occur. However, the catalyst with a low metal content of the catalyst (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) could not be stabilized, and it was confirmed that FT activity was decreased by reoxidation or sintering as the reaction time passed.

본 발명은 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질에 균일한 나노 크기의 금속 함유 촉매입자들이 담지된 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매 및 그 제조방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst carrying a uniform nano-sized metal-containing catalyst particles in a porous carbon material having a regular structure and a method of manufacturing the same.
석유화학 공정의 주목적 중 하나는 반응촉매, 반응물의 조성, 온도, 압력 등을 최적화하여 석유화학제품을 높은 전환율과 선택도로 제조하는 것이다. 이때 상기 반응촉매로서 많은 경우 철, 코발트, 몰리브덴, 텅스텐, 비스무스, 니켈, 구리와 같은 금속촉매들이 많이 사용되는데, 로듐, 금, 백금, 루테늄, 레니움 등 귀금속 촉매가 사용되기도 한다. 이러한 금속 촉매를 알루미나, 실리카, 티타니아 등과 같은 지지체 표면에 균일하게 분산, 담지시켜 주로 사용하며, 필요하다면 촉매 성능의 향상을 위해 백금, 팔라듐과 같은 귀금속이 조촉매로서 사용될 수도 있다One of the main objectives of the petrochemical process is to produce petrochemical products with high conversion and selectivity by optimizing the reaction catalyst, reactant composition, temperature and pressure. In this case, metal catalysts such as iron, cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten, bismuth, nickel, and copper are often used as the reaction catalyst, and noble metal catalysts such as rhodium, gold, platinum, ruthenium, and rhenium may be used. These metal catalysts are mainly used by uniformly dispersing and supporting the surface of a support such as alumina, silica, titania, etc. If necessary, precious metals such as platinum and palladium may be used as promoters to improve catalyst performance.
이러한 촉매는 주로 알루미나 (γ-Al2O3, a-Al2O3 등), 실리카 (SiO2), 티타니아 (TiO2), 마그네시아 (MgO), 탄소 등의 지지체에 담지되어 사용되고 있다. 대개 이러한 지지체에 incipient wetness 법, 함침법 등이 주로 사용된다. 피셔-트롭쉬 합성반응 촉매를 예로 들면, 촉매의 전구체인 코발트 산염(Co(NO3)2·H2O 등)과 조촉매로 사용하는 Pt, Ru, Re 등의 염을 적당한 용매에 녹여 전구체의 혼합 용액을 제조하여 지지체의 기공에 함침시킨 후 건조하는 과정을 되풀이하면서 원하는 만큼의 촉매물질을 담지시킨다. 이후 건조된 촉매는 공기 혹은 비활성 기체 분위기에서 소성과정을 거쳐 금속산화물 결정이 지지체에 담지된 형태의 촉매입자를 얻는다.Such a catalyst is mainly supported on a support such as alumina (γ-Al 2 O 3, a-Al 2 O 3, etc.), silica (SiO 2 ), titania (TiO 2 ), magnesia (MgO), and carbon. Usually, incipient wetness and impregnation methods are mainly used for these supports. Taking Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst as an example, cobalt acid salt (Co (NO 3 ) 2 H 2 O, etc.), which is a precursor of the catalyst, and salts such as Pt, Ru, and Re used as a cocatalyst are dissolved in a suitable solvent to form To prepare a mixed solution of the impregnated in the pores of the support and then repeat the drying process to carry as many catalyst materials as desired. The dried catalyst is then calcined in an air or inert gas atmosphere to obtain catalyst particles in which metal oxide crystals are supported on a support.
하지만 이런 통상적인 방법으로는 촉매의 결정의 크기나 형태가 균일하게 얻어지지 않으며 금속 촉매 결정과 지지체 간의 상호작용으로 활성이나 선택성이 현저히 떨어질 수 있다.However, such a conventional method does not uniformly obtain the size or shape of the crystals of the catalyst and the activity or selectivity may be remarkably degraded due to the interaction between the metal catalyst crystal and the support.

It is to provide a method for producing a Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalyst containing metal-containing catalyst particles.

이하 본 발명을 자세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
CMK-3과 같은 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소물질 지지체는 나노 채널과 같은 확장된 기공 구조를 가지고 있어서, 기공 안에 촉매 나노입자가 담지되면 나노채널 반응기 역할을 할 수 있다. 본 발명은 나노 스케일의 규칙적인 기공 구조를 가진 다공성 탄소물질 지지체의 기공 구속 효과와 소수성 특성을 이용하여 성능이 우수한 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매를 제공하고자 한다.The porous carbon material support having a regular structure such as CMK-3 has an expanded pore structure such as nanochannels, and thus may serve as a nanochannel reactor when catalyst nanoparticles are loaded in the pores. The present invention is to provide a Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalyst having excellent performance by using the pore restraint effect and hydrophobic properties of the porous carbon material support having a regular pore structure of the nano-scale.
탄소물질은 촉매 활성물질에 대해 다소 불활성인 것으로 알려져 있다. 촉매 물질과 지지체 물질 사이에 강한 상호작용은 금속을 산화시킬 수 있고 이는 촉매의 활성 및 선택도를 손실시킨다. Carbon materials are known to be somewhat inert to catalytically active materials. Strong interactions between the catalyst material and the support material can oxidize the metal, which leads to a loss of activity and selectivity of the catalyst.
탄소 지지체는 피셔-트롭시 합성용 촉매의 성능을 강화하고, 부산물인 물을 쉽게 탈착시키고, 반응열을 분산시킬 수 있고, 높은 표면적으로 인해 촉매 나노입자들을 분산시키는데 일조할 수 있고(도 10), 활성점(active sites)의 개수를 증가시킬 수 있다. 특히, 규칙적 구조의 메조포러스 탄소물질(ordered mesoporous carbons, OMCs)은, 활성탄소, 흑연과 같은 다른 다공성 탄소 보다, 더 높은 비표면적, 잘 발달된 상호연결된 기공들, 기공 크기를 조절할 수 있다는 점에서 우수하다.The carbon support can enhance the performance of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst, easily desorb byproduct water, dissipate heat of reaction, and help disperse the catalyst nanoparticles due to the high surface area (FIG. 10), The number of active sites can be increased. In particular, ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) have a higher specific surface area, better developed interconnected pores and pore sizes than other porous carbons such as activated carbon and graphite. great.
본 발명은 촉매와 지지체와의 상호작용을 최소화하기 위해 다공성 탄소물질을 지지체로 사용하고, 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소물질 지지체의 기공(메조포어)에 촉매 전구체 용액 함침 및 건조를 2회 이상 반복하여 금속 함유 촉매입자들을 형성시킴으로써, 다공성 탄소물질의 기공 내 금속 함유 촉매입자들을 서로 동일 또는 유사한 나노 크기로, 즉 균일한 나노크기로 형성시키고, 기공 내 금속 함유 촉매입자들의 입자크기를 일정한 크기 이상으로 성장시키는 것이 특징이다.The present invention uses a porous carbon material as a support to minimize the interaction between the catalyst and the support, and impregnated and dried the catalyst precursor solution in the pores (mesopores) of the porous carbon material support having a regular structure by repeating the metal at least two times. By forming the containing catalyst particles, the metal-containing catalyst particles in the pores of the porous carbon material are formed at the same or similar nano size, i.e., uniform nano size, and the particle size of the metal-containing catalyst particles in the pores is grown to a certain size or more. It is characteristic to let.
메조포어 평균 직경이 나노 스케일인 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질의 기공에 이보다 작은 크기의 금속 함유 촉매입자들을 형성시키는 경우라고 하더라도, 금속산화물 형태의 금속 함유 촉매입자들을 기공 단면적 대비 일정한 크기 이상으로 성장시켜야, 금속산화물로부터 환원되어 일부 그 부피가 작아진 금속 형태의 금속 함유 촉매입자들도 일정한 크기 이상을 유지하여, 기공 구속 효과에 의해 금속 함유 촉매입자가 agglomeration 또는 sintering되지 않고 피셔 트롭시 반응시 극심한 반응열 및 부산물로 생성되는 물에 대항하여 그 성능을 유지할 수 있다(도 8). 즉, 기공 단면적 대비 일정 크기 이상을 갖지 아니하는 금속 함유 촉매입자들은 피셔 트롭시 반응시 극심한 반응열 및 부산물로 생성되는 물에 의해 산화되거나 소결되어 활성이 떨어진다.Even when the metal-containing catalyst particles having a smaller size are formed in the pores of a regular structure of porous carbon material having a mesopore average diameter of nanoscale, the metal oxide-containing catalyst particles in the form of metal oxides must be grown to a certain size or larger than the pore cross-sectional area. In addition, metal-containing catalyst particles in the form of metals reduced from metal oxides and smaller in volume are also maintained at a predetermined size or more, so that the reaction heat of Fischer Tropsch during the reaction of Fischer-Tropsch is not agglomeration or sintering due to the pore confinement effect. And maintain its performance against water produced as a by-product (FIG. 8). That is, the metal-containing catalyst particles not having a predetermined size or more relative to the pore cross-sectional area are oxidized or sintered by water generated as a by-product of extreme reaction heat and by-products during the Fischer Tropsch reaction, thereby decreasing activity.
상기 금속 함유 촉매입자가 금속산화물인 경우, 메조포어 내 금속 함유 촉매입자의 단면적이 메조포어 단면적의 85 % 내지 95%, 바람직하게는 90% 내지 95%를 차지하는 것이 좋다. When the metal-containing catalyst particles are metal oxides, the cross-sectional area of the metal-containing catalyst particles in the mesopores is preferably 85% to 95%, preferably 90% to 95% of the mesopore cross-sectional area.
또한, 상기 금속 함유 촉매입자가 환원된 금속인 경우, 메조포어 내 금속 함유 촉매입자의 단면적이 메조포어 단면적의 65 % 내지 95%, 바람직하게는 70 % 내지 95%, 더욱 바람직하게는 80 % 내지 95%, 더더욱 바람직하게는 85% 내지 90%를 차지하는 것이 좋다.In addition, when the metal-containing catalyst particles are reduced metals, the cross-sectional area of the metal-containing catalyst particles in the mesopores is 65% to 95%, preferably 70% to 95%, more preferably 80% to 95%, even more preferably 85% to 90%.
본 발명에 따라 CMK-3과 같은 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소물질 지지체에 금속산화물인 금속 함유 촉매입자가 기공 단면적의 65 % 내지 95%를 차지하고 있으면, 상기 금속 산화물이 환원되어도 구속된 금속 나노입자들을 구비한 나노채널 반응기 구조를 유지하고 , FT 합성 이후에도 결정은 sintering되지 않는다(도 11).According to the present invention, when the metal-containing catalyst particles, which are metal oxides, occupy 65% to 95% of the pore cross-sectional area on a porous carbon material support having a regular structure such as CMK-3, the metal oxide particles are restrained even when the metal oxide is reduced.

한편, 본 발명자들은 기공(메조포어) 단면적의 평균 직경이 나노 스케일인 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체는 화학적 상호작용이 작고, 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부표면에는 기공 구속 효과도 없어서, 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부표면에 담지된 촉매 결정은 agglomeration 또는 sintering에 매우 취약하며, 심각한 경우 FT 합성 반응 중에 탄소 침적(carbon deposition)으로 인해 금속 촉매 결정이 지지체 외부로 떨어져 나갈 수도 있다는 것을 발견하였다. 이러한 발견에 기초하여, 본 발명은 기공 내에는 기공 구속 효과를 발휘할 수 있는 크기의 금속 함유 촉매 입자를 함유하면서, 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에는 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 거의 형성되지 않도록 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매를 제공하는 것이 또 다른 특징이다.On the other hand, the inventors of the present invention suggest that the porous carbon material support having a regular structure in which the average diameter of the pore (mesopore) cross-sectional area is nanoscale has small chemical interaction, and there is no pore restraining effect on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support. The catalyst crystals supported on the outer surface of are found to be very susceptible to agglomeration or sintering and, in severe cases, metal catalyst crystals may fall out of the support due to carbon deposition during the FT synthesis reaction. Based on these findings, the present invention provides Fischer Tropsch synthesis so that the pores contain metal-containing catalyst particles of a size capable of exerting a pore confinement effect, while almost no metal-containing catalyst particles are formed on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support. It is another feature to provide a catalyst for the process.
따라서, 본 발명의 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매는 기공(메조포어)의 평균 직경이 나노 스케일인 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 기공 내부에 주로 금속 함유 촉매입자들이 담지되어, 금속 함유 촉매입자들이 지지체와의 상호작용이 최소화되며 높은 분산도를 가질 수 있다. X선 회절법에 의해 측정한 금속 결정의 분산도는 15% 이상이며, 더욱 바람직하게는 25% 이상일 수 있다. 기존 알루미나 지지체 등에 금속 함유 촉매입자들을 담지시키는 경우, 금속 산화물의 결정 크기가 일정하지 않으며, 모양이 불규칙하게 생성되고, 고르게 분산되지 않는 문제점이 있다.Thus, the Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalyst of the present invention is mainly supported by the metal-containing catalyst particles in the pores of the porous carbon material support having a regular structure of the average diameter of the pores (mesopores), the metal-containing catalyst particles are supported The interaction with is minimized and can have a high degree of dispersion. The dispersion degree of the metal crystal measured by the X-ray diffraction method is 15% or more, more preferably 25% or more. When supporting the metal-containing catalyst particles in the existing alumina support or the like, there is a problem that the crystal size of the metal oxide is not constant, irregular shapes are generated, and evenly dispersed.
특히, 본 발명의 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매는 이의 제조방법에서, 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체에 촉매 전구체 용액 함침시 (i) 외부 표면에 촉매 전구체 용액이 함침이 되지 않도록 친수성 처리가 되지 않은 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 사용하거나, (ii) 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에 촉매 전구체 용액이 화학적 함침이 되지 않을 정도로 친수성 처리를 한 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 사용함으로써, 이로 인해 기공 구속 효과가 없어서 agglomeration 또는 sintering에 취약한 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에는 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 거의 형성되지 않을 수 있다.In particular, the Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalyst of the present invention, in the method for producing the catalyst precursor solution impregnated with the porous carbon material support (i) the porous carbon material support is not hydrophilic treatment so that the catalyst precursor solution is not impregnated on the outer surface Or (ii) using a porous carbon material support that has been hydrophilically treated to the extent that the catalyst precursor solution is not chemically impregnated on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support, thereby resulting in no pore restraint effect and thus susceptible to agglomeration or sintering. Almost no metal-containing catalyst particles may be formed on the outer surface of the carbon material support.
본 발명에서, 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 형성되어 있지 아니하였다는 의미는, 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 실질적으로 형성되어 있지 아니하였다는 의미로, 그 크기가 작아 X선 회절법에 의해 측정한 금속 결정의 분산도가 15% 이상, 바람직하게는 25% 이상을 유지할 수 있는 한, 비록 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 일부 형성되더라도 실질적으로 외부 표면에 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 형성되어 있지 아니하였다고 볼 수 있다.In the present invention, the fact that the metal-containing catalyst particles were not formed on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support means that the metal-containing catalyst particles were not substantially formed. As long as the dispersity of the metal crystals measured by can maintain 15% or more, preferably 25% or more, the metal surface is substantially contained on the outer surface even though some metal-containing catalyst particles are formed on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support. It can be seen that no catalyst particles were formed.
본 발명에서, 금속 함유 촉매입자는 금속 산화물 형태일 수도 있고, 이로부터 환원된 금속 형태일 수도 있다.In the present invention, the metal-containing catalyst particles may be in the form of metal oxides, or may be in the form of reduced metals therefrom.

The metal-containing catalyst particles are cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), ruthenium (Ru), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), bismuth (Bi) It may contain a metal selected from the group consisting of reniche (Re), rhodium (Rh), palladium (Pd), silver (Ag), platinum (Pt), combinations thereof.
본 발명에서 금속 함유 촉매입자들은 평균크기가 5 nm 이하인 것이 바람직하다. 상기 금속 함유 촉매입자들의 크기는 다공성 탄소물질의 기공 크기와 동일 또는 유사하며, 금속 산화물 형태의 금속 함유 촉매입자들은 환원 과정을 거쳐 금속 입자가 되면서, 예컨대 본래 크기의 70 내지 90% 수준으로, 작아질 수 있다. 이전 연구에 따르면 촉매활성 측면에서 촉매 결정의 적절한 크기는 약 6 ~ 8nm이고, 6nm 미만의 금속 결정을 갖는 촉매는 일반적으로 낮은 C5+ 선택도 및 높은 메탄 선택도를 가지며, 피셔-트롭시 합성동안 H2O 부산물이 작은 Co0 나노입자들을 재산화시키는 원인이 되고 재산화된 CoO 나노입자들은 환원되기 어렵다고 알려져 있다. 그러나, 실시예 2의 20 Co/CMK-3의 촉매활성은 정상 상태(steady state)에 이르러 20시간 후에도 거의 일정하게 유지되었으며, 이는 재산화가 발생하지 않았다는 것을 의미한다(도 8).In the present invention, the metal-containing catalyst particles are preferably 5 nm or less in average size. The size of the metal-containing catalyst particles is the same as or similar to the pore size of the porous carbon material, and the metal-containing catalyst particles in the form of metal oxides are reduced to become metal particles, for example, small to 70 to 90% of the original size. Can lose. Previous studies have shown that, in terms of catalytic activity, the appropriate size of catalyst crystals is about 6 to 8 nm, and catalysts with metal crystals of less than 6 nm generally have low C 5+ selectivity and high methane selectivity, and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis H 2 O by-products cause reoxidation of small Co 0 nanoparticles, and reoxidized CoO nanoparticles are known to be difficult to reduce. However, the catalytic activity of 20 Co / CMK-3 in Example 2 reached a steady state and remained almost constant after 20 hours, indicating that reoxidation did not occur (FIG. 8).

Emmmett. Teller (BET) surface area is about 1500 m 2 g −1 . In CMK-3, the pore structure in the form of channels is formed by carbon rods connected to each other, and there are open slits on the sides of these carbon rods.

The saccharide refers to a compound having a relatively small molecule in carbohydrate and having a sweet taste in water. Examples of sugars include glucose, fructose, galactose, glucose and sucrose. In the present invention, a carbon precursor may include glucose, sucrose, furfuryl alcohol, and the like, but is not limited thereto.

Examples of mesoporous silica materials used in step a) include SBA-15, SBA-3, MSU-H, MCM-41, KIT-6, MCM-48, SBA-16, MSU-F, and the like. This is not restrictive. Any silica material having a regular microporous structure can be used. The SBA-15, SBA-3, MSU-H and MCM-41 all have a structure in which bundles of long cylindrical shapes are gathered, and then the carbon precursor is impregnated into the cylinder.
상기 단계 a)에서 탄소 전구체의 메조포러스한 실리카 내부로의 함침은, 탄소 전구체를 수용액으로 만든 후 함침과 건조를 반복하여 수행할 수 있다. 이때 탄소 전구체를 수용액으로 제조한 후 함침시키며, 수용액에는 황산 등 산촉매를 첨가할 수 있다. 탄소 전구체가 충분히 함침될 때까지 함침과 건조를 반복하며, 건조가 완성되면 소성하여 실리카-탄소 복합체를 완성할 수 있다.

Since the carbon support having the regular structure thus prepared has a structure of silica and a replica, it has a surface area comparable to that of the mesoporous silica used, and the space filled with silica becomes a pore.

한편, 본 발명에 따른 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매의 제조방법은 On the other hand, the manufacturing method of the Fischer Tropsch synthesis catalyst according to the present invention
1) 메조포어 평균 직경이 나노 스케일인 규칙적 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체에 촉매 전구체 용액을 함침하는 단계;1) impregnating the catalyst precursor solution into a porous carbon material support having a regular structure having a mesopore average diameter of nanoscale;

3) 메조포어 내 금속 함유 촉매입자의 단면적이 메조포어 단면적의 85 % 내지 95%를 차지할 때까지, 상기 단계 1) 및 2)를 반복하는 단계; 및 3) repeating steps 1) and 2) until the cross-sectional area of the metal-containing catalyst particles in the mesopore accounts for 85% to 95% of the mesopore cross-sectional area; And
4) 상기 건조된 지지체를 소성하는 단계를 포함한다.4) calcining the dried support.
다공성 탄소 물질 지지체 내 기공은 나노채널 형태일 수 있고, 단계 1)에서, 나노채널 형태의 기공 내에 촉매 전구체 용액의 함침은 나노채널의 모세관 힘 또는 나노채널 내 감압 또는 물리적 힘(예, sonication)을 통해 수행될 수 있다.The pores in the porous carbon material support may be in the form of nanochannels, and in step 1), impregnation of the catalyst precursor solution into the pores in the form of nanochannels results in capillary forces of the nanochannels or decompression or physical forces (eg, sonication) in the nanochannels. It can be done through.
단계 1)에서, (i) 외부 표면에 촉매 전구체 용액이 함침이 되지 않도록 친수성 처리가 되지 않은 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 사용하거나, (ii) 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에 촉매 전구체 용액이 화학적 함침이 되지 않을 정도로 친수성 처리를 한 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 사용하는 것이 바람직하다. 이로 인해 기공 구속 효과가 없는 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체의 외부 표면에는 금속 함유 촉매 입자가 거의 형성되지 않는다. (ii)의 친수성 처리의 비제한 적인 예는 0.01M 내지 1M의 강산 수용액으로 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 처리하는 것이다. 예컨대 1M의 질산 수용액으로 다공성 탄소 물질 지지체를 처리하면, 메조기공 내부에 촉매 전구체 용액이 함침될 수 있기에 충분한 소량의 친수성 기능기들을 형성시키나, 대부분의 표면은 소수성을 유지한다.In step 1), (i) use a porous carbon material support that is not hydrophilic to prevent impregnation of the catalyst precursor solution on the outer surface, or (ii) chemical impregnation of the catalyst precursor solution on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support. Preference is given to using porous carbon material supports which have been hydrophilized to such an extent that they are not. As a result, almost no metal-containing catalyst particles are formed on the outer surface of the porous carbon material support having no pore blocking effect. A non-limiting example of the hydrophilic treatment of (ii) is the treatment of the porous carbon material support with an aqueous 0.01 M to 1 M strong acid solution. Treatment of the porous carbon material support with, for example, 1M aqueous solution of nitric acid forms a small amount of hydrophilic functional groups sufficient to impregnate the catalyst precursor solution inside the mesopores, but most surfaces remain hydrophobic.
촉매 전구체는 코발트(Co), 니켈(Ni), 구리(Cu), 철(Fe), 아연(Zn), 루테늄(Ru), 몰리브덴(Mo), 텅스텐(W), 비스무스(Bi), 레니윰(Re), 로듐(Rh), 팔라듐(Pd), 은(Ag) 및 백금(Pt)으로 이루어진 군으로부터 선택되는 하나 이상의 금속을 함유하는 금속함유 전구체일 수 있으며, 상기 금속함유 전구체는 수용성 전구체로 금속의 산화물염, 옥시수산화물염, 염화물염, 탄산염, 초산염, 시트르산염, 니토로실질산염, 질산염. 수산화염. 옥살산염, 카르복시산염, 황산염 등, 지용성 전구체로 탄화수소가 포함된 알콕시 전구체. 암모늄 전구체 등을 포함하지만 이에 제한되지 않는다.

Hydroxide salts. Alkoxy precursors containing hydrocarbons as soluble precursors, such as oxalate, carboxylate, and sulfate. Ammonium precursors and the like.
상기 함침은 촉매 전구체를 용액으로 만들어, 초기 습식 함침법(incipient wetness impregnation)으로 수행될 수 있다. 이때, 촉매 전구체 용액의 용매로는 물 또는 알코올을 사용할 수 있다. 초기 습식 함침법(incipient wetness impregnation)은 가장 널리 사용되는 함침법으로서 촉매 지지체의 세공 부피에 해당 하는 함침 용액을 담지하여 제조하며, 방법이 간단하다.The impregnation may be carried out by incipient wetness impregnation, making the catalyst precursor a solution. In this case, water or alcohol may be used as the solvent of the catalyst precursor solution. Incipient wetness impregnation is the most widely used impregnation method and is prepared by supporting an impregnation solution corresponding to the pore volume of the catalyst support.
상기 함침시 기공의 부피가 제한되어 있으므로, 충분히 함침 될 때까지 2번 또는 3번의 함침을 반복할 수 있으며 함침마다 건조 과정을 거친다. 함침시, 모세관 힘을 최대한 이용하며, 함침이 잘 되지 않는 경우는 지지체를 진공 처리 후 사용하거나, 함침시 sonication을 병행하는 방법을 사용할 수도 있다. Since the volume of the pores during the impregnation is limited, the impregnation may be repeated two or three times until the impregnation is sufficiently impregnated and goes through a drying process for each impregnation. When impregnated, capillary force is used to the maximum, and when impregnation is difficult, the support may be used after vacuum treatment, or sonication may be used in combination.
단계 2)에서 건조는 110 ~ 150℃에서 5 ~ 24시간 동안 이루어질 수 있다.Drying in step 2) may be performed for 5 to 24 hours at 110 ~ 150 ℃.
상기 단계 1) 및 2)는 메조포어 내 금속 함유 촉매입자의 단면적이 메조포어 단면적의 85 % 내지 95%를 차지할 때까지, 예컨대 최종 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매(100중량% 기준) 내 촉매 금속의 함량이 20 중량% 이상이 될 때까지 반복한다. Steps 1) and 2) above are carried out until the cross-sectional area of the metal-containing catalyst particles in the mesopores accounts for 85% to 95% of the mesopore cross-sectional area, e.g. Repeat until the content is at least 20% by weight.
건조된 지지체를 소성하는 단계 4)는 질소, 헬륨, 아르곤 등과 같은 불활성 기체 분위기 하에서 수행할 수 있다. 상기 소성을 통해 메조포러스 기공 사이즈와 비슷하거나 조금 작은 사이즈의 금속 함유 촉매입자들이 생성된다. 촉매입자들은 질서정연한 메조포러스 구조 안에 구속되므로 지지체의 구속 효과로 인해, 촉매입자의 성장이 억제되어 사이즈가 일정하고 균일한 분포로 생성된다. 일 실시예에서 촉매의 사이즈는 약 4nm, 분산도는 30.1% 로 기존 촉매에 비하여 현저하게 개선된 분산도를 나타내었다. Firing the dried support may be carried out under an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen, helium, argon, and the like. The firing produces metal-containing catalyst particles of a size similar to or slightly smaller than the mesoporous pore size. Since the catalyst particles are constrained in an orderly mesoporous structure, due to the restraining effect of the support, the growth of the catalyst particles is suppressed to produce a uniform and uniform distribution in size. In one embodiment, the size of the catalyst was about 4 nm and the dispersity was 30.1%, which shows a remarkably improved dispersity compared to the existing catalyst.

상기와 같이, 본 발명의 피셔 트롭시 합성용 촉매를 사용하여 피셔 트롭시 합성 반응을 수행하는 경우, 본 발명 촉매의 높은 분산도, 반응 도중에 금속이 산화되거나 소결되지 않는 적당한 결정크기로 인해 피셔 트롭시 합성 반응의 일산화탄소 전환율 및 액체 탄화수소 선택성이 증가한다. As described above, when performing the Fisher-Tropsch synthesis reaction using the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst of the present invention, the Fisher-Trop due to the high dispersion degree of the catalyst of the present invention, the appropriate crystal size does not oxidize or sinter the metal during the reaction The carbon monoxide conversion and liquid hydrocarbon selectivity of the synthesis reaction increase.
본 발명에 따른 제조방법으로 제조된 나노 크기의 촉매는 높은 분산도로 인하여 촉매의 활용도가 극대화되며, 지지체와의 상호작용이 최소가 되어 촉매 본연의 성능이 최대한 발현되므로 피셔-트롭시 합성반응의 생산성이 향상된다.The nano-sized catalyst prepared by the production method according to the present invention maximizes the utilization of the catalyst due to the high dispersion degree, and the interaction with the support is minimized so that the intrinsic performance of the catalyst is expressed. Thus, the productivity of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction is increased. This is improved.

이하 실시예를 통하여 본 발명을 더욱 상세히 설명하고자 한다. 이들 실시예는 본 발명을 보다 구체적으로 설명하기 위한 것으로, 본 발명의 범위가 이들 실시예에 의해 제한되는 것은 아니다.Through the following examples will be described the present invention in more detail. These examples are intended to illustrate the present invention more specifically, but the scope of the present invention is not limited by these examples.
실시예 1: OMC 지지체의 제조Example 1: Preparation of OMC Support
메조포러스 실리카 SBA-15 2g을 물 20g에 AlCl3 0.36g이 용해된 수용액에 함침시켜, Alumination시켰다(AlSBA-15). 만들어진 AlSBA-15 1g에 furfuryl alcohol 1.5 ml을 고루 문지른 후, 85℃에서 4시간 동안 열처리 과정을 거쳐 furfuryl alcohol을 중합시켰다. 중합이 끝난 후, Ar 가스 하에서 850 ℃에서 2시간 동안 탄화시켜 실리카-탄소 복합체를 완성하였다. 상온으로 식힌 후, HF 나 수산화나트륨 수용액을 사용하여 실리카 골격을 녹여내어 규칙적 구조의 메조포러스 탄소(OMC) 지지체를 완성하였다. 이렇게 얻어진 OMC의 기공 사이즈 분포를 측정한 결과를 도 1a에, TEM 이미지를 도 1b에 나타내었다. 얻어진 OMC는 표면적이 약 1500 m2/g에 달하며, 기공의 크기가 약 4 nm 정도이고, 직선형 기공 구조체의 배열이 매우 균일함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이와 같이 SBA-15를 주형으로 하여 제조한 탄소 물질은 CMK-3이라고도 한다. 2 g of mesoporous silica SBA-15 was impregnated in an aqueous solution in which 0.36 g of AlCl 3 was dissolved in 20 g of water, followed by alumination (AlSBA-15). After rubbing 1.5 ml of furfuryl alcohol evenly on 1 g of AlSBA-15, the furfuryl alcohol was polymerized by heat treatment at 85 ° C. for 4 hours. After the polymerization was completed, carbonization at 850 ℃ for 2 hours under Ar gas to complete the silica-carbon composite. After cooling to room temperature, the silica skeleton was dissolved using HF or aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to complete a mesoporous carbon (OMC) support having a regular structure. The pore size distribution of the OMC thus obtained was measured in FIG. 1A and the TEM image in FIG. 1B. The OMC obtained had a surface area of about 1500 m 2 / g, a pore size of about 4 nm, and a very uniform array of linear pore structures. The carbon material produced using SBA-15 as a template is also referred to as CMK-3.
실시예 2: OMC에 담지된 코발트 촉매의 제조Example 2: Preparation of Cobalt Catalyst Supported on OMC
상기 제조예 1에서 만든 OMC(CMK-3) 를 1M 질산 수용액으로 약 30분간 상온에서 처리하였다. 이후 세척과 건조를 마친 후, 약 20 wt %의 코발트 촉매입자가 되도록 질산염 코발트 전구체를 에탄올 용액상으로 만들어 incipient wetness impregnation 법으로 OMC 기공에 함침시켰다. 기공의 부피가 제한되어 있으므로 2번 혹은 3번의 함침과정을 거치며, 함침마다 건조 과정을 거쳤다. 함침시, 모세관 힘을 최대한 이용하며, 함침이 잘 되지 않는 경우 필요에 따라 OMC 지지체를 진공처리한 후 사용하거나, 함침시 sonication 등의 방법을 병행하였다. 건조된 촉매는 400 ℃에서 질소분위기로 5시간 소성하여 메조포러스 기공 사이즈와 비슷하거나 조금 작은 사이즈의 코발트 산화물 결정을 생성시켰다. 상기 제조된 코발트 산화물 결정을 도 2에 나타내었다. 또한, 제조된 코발트 촉매의 원소 분석 이미지를 도 3에 나타내었다. 이를 통해, 코발트 산화물 결정이 매우 일정한 크기로 제조된 것을 알 수 있으며, OMC 기공의 영향으로 배열 또한 매우 질서 정연한 것을 확인하였다. 얻어진 코발트 산화물 결정의 크기는 약 4 nm로서 기공 크기와 유사하였다. 참고문헌 R. D. Jones, C. H. Bartholomew, Appl. Catal. 1988, 39, 77-88를 참고하여 % Dispersion (%분산도 = 96.2/코발트 결정 사이즈)을 구하고, 그 값이 30.1 % 임을 확인하였다. 피셔 트롭시 합성 반응시 환원하여 촉매를 활성화시키는데, 이때 코발트 산화물이 코발트 금속으로 환원되면서 그 그 크기가 약 75% 수준으로 작아진다. 따라서, 본 실시예에서 제조된 촉매가 반응물이나 생성물의 이동과 확산을 크게 저해하지 않으며, 이는 이후 촉매의 성능 검증으로 확인하였다. OMC (CMK-3) prepared in Preparation Example 1 was treated with 1M aqueous nitric acid solution at room temperature for about 30 minutes. After washing and drying, the nitrate cobalt precursor was made into an ethanol solution so that about 20 wt% of cobalt catalyst particles were impregnated into the OMC pores by the incipient wetness impregnation method. Because the volume of the pores is limited, two or three impregnation processes are performed, and each impregnation process is followed by a drying process. At the time of impregnation, the capillary force is used to the maximum, and when impregnation is not performed well, the OMC support is vacuum-treated as necessary, or sonication is performed at the same time. The dried catalyst was calcined at 400 ° C. for 5 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere to produce cobalt oxide crystals of a size similar to or slightly smaller than that of mesoporous pores. The prepared cobalt oxide crystals are shown in FIG. 2. In addition, an elemental analysis image of the prepared cobalt catalyst is shown in FIG. 3. Through this, it can be seen that the cobalt oxide crystals were manufactured in a very constant size, and the arrangement was also very orderly under the influence of the OMC pores. The size of the cobalt oxide crystals obtained was about 4 nm, similar to the pore size. References R. D. Jones, C. H. Bartholomew, Appl. Catal. Referring to 1988, 39, 77-88,% Dispersion (% dispersion = 96.2 / cobalt crystal size) was obtained, and the value was found to be 30.1%. In the Fischer Tropsch synthesis reaction, the catalyst is reduced to activate the cobalt oxide, reducing its size to about 75% as the cobalt oxide is reduced to cobalt metal. Therefore, the catalyst prepared in this example does not significantly inhibit the movement and diffusion of the reactants or products, which was confirmed by the performance verification of the catalyst thereafter.
비교예 1: 코발트 함량이 20 wt% 미만인, CMK-3에 지지된 코발트 촉매의 제조Comparative Example 1 Preparation of a Cobalt Catalyst Supported in CMK-3 with a Cobalt Content of Less Than 20 Wt%
최종 촉매입자 내 코발트 금속의 무게 함량이 20 wt% 미만인 것을 제외하고는, 실시예 2의 제조방법과 동일한 방법을 사용하여 10 wt%, 15 wt 코발트 함유 CMK-3 담지 촉매를 제조하였다. 코발트 금속이 10 wt% 포함된 CMK-3 담지 촉매를 10 Co/CMK-3, 15 wt% 포함된 CMK-3 담지 촉매를 15 Co/CMK-3로 명명하였다. A 10 wt%, 15 wt cobalt-containing CMK-3 supported catalyst was prepared using the same method as the preparation method of Example 2, except that the weight content of the cobalt metal in the final catalyst particles was less than 20 wt%. The CMK-3 supported catalyst containing 10 wt% of cobalt metal was designated as 10 Co / CMK-3 and the CMK-3 supported catalyst containing 15 wt% of 15 Co / CMK-3.
상기 실시예 및 비교예의 10 Co/CMK-3, 15 Co/CMK-3 및 20 Co/CMK-3 촉매의 XRD 데이터를 도 4에 나타내었다. 그 결과 코발트 함량이 증가할수록, 45°근처의 주 피크의 폭이 좁아지며 더 뾰족해지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 주 피크에서 계산한 FWHM(full width at half maximum, 피크 높이 중간 지점에서 피크 폭의 길이)가 더 짧다는 것으로, 촉매 결정의 크기가 커진다는 것을 의미한다(A.L.Patterson, Phys. Rev.,1939,56,978). 즉, 20 Co/CMK-3 코발트 산화물 결정의 크기가, 10 Co/CMK-3, 15 Co/CMK-3의 코발트 산화물 결정의 크기보다 크다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. XRD data of the 10 Co / CMK-3, 15 Co / CMK-3 and 20 Co / CMK-3 catalysts of the Examples and Comparative Examples are shown in FIG. 4. As a result, as the cobalt content was increased, the width of the main peak near 45 ° was narrower and sharper. This means that the FWHM (full width at half maximum) calculated at the main peak is shorter, which means that the size of the catalyst crystal is increased (ALPatterson, Phys. Rev., 1939, 56,978). That is, it was confirmed that the size of the 20 Co / CMK-3 cobalt oxide crystal is larger than the size of the cobalt oxide crystals of 10 Co / CMK-3 and 15 Co / CMK-3.
또한, 각 촉매에 대하여 TPR(temperature programmed reduction) profile 및 H2 uptake profile을 측정하여 이를 도 5에 나타내었다. 그 결과 낮은 온도의 환원피크가 150℃ 내지 350℃에서 나타나며, 높은 온도의 환원 피크가 350℃ 내지 900℃에서 나타났으며 코발트 담지량이 많은 경우 H2 uptake 양이 증가하였다. 환원 profile을 두 부분으로 나누었을 때, 코발트 담지량이 많은 경우 저온 영역의 피크가 증가한 반면 높은 온도영역의 피크는 감소했다. 이는 코발트 담지량이 많은 경우 지지체와 촉매 물질과의 상호작용이 약해지고, 이로 인해 환원성이 증가했기 때문이다. In addition, the TPR (temperature programmed reduction) profile and the H 2 uptake profile of each catalyst were measured and shown in FIG. 5. As a result, the low peak of the reduced peak is appeared at 150 ℃ to 350 ℃, the high peak of the reduction peak is appeared at 350 ℃ to 900 ℃, the amount of H 2 uptake was increased when the amount of cobalt loading. When the reduction profile was divided into two parts, the peak in the low temperature region increased while the cobalt loading amount increased, while the peak in the high temperature region decreased. This is because, when the amount of cobalt supported is large, the interaction between the support and the catalyst material is weakened, thereby increasing the reducibility.
비교예 2: 알루미나 지지체를 사용한 코발트계 촉매의 제조 (20Co/γ-Al2O3) Comparative Example 2: Preparation of Cobalt-Based Catalyst Using Alumina Support (20 Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 )
감마-알루미나 지지체에 코발트 전구체를 담지하여 코발트계 촉매를 제조하였다. 사용한 감마-알루미나는 기공 부피가 0.5 ml/g, 기공 크기가 9-10 nm 이며 BET법으로 측정한 표면적이 약 170 m2/g 정도 되는 알루미나로서 Sasol puralox 제품을 사용하였다.A cobalt-based catalyst was prepared by supporting a cobalt precursor on a gamma-alumina support. The gamma-alumina used was alumina having a pore volume of 0.5 ml / g, pore size of 9-10 nm, and a surface area of about 170 m 2 / g measured by the BET method.
감마-알루미나 지지체에 약 20 wt%의 코발트 금속이 담지 되도록 질산염 코발트 전구체의 무게를 정량하여 용액으로 제조한 후(용매는 알코올, 물 등), 함침법으로 Co/γ-Al2O3 형태의 촉매입자를 제조하였다. 상기 제조된 촉매입자의 TEM 이미지를 도 5에 나타내었다. XRD 분석에 의하면 제조된 촉매입자에서 코발트 산화물 결정의 크기는 평균 약 14.4 nm 이지만, 도 5의 TEM 이미지를 살펴보면 검은색으로 나타난 코발트 산화물의 결정크기는 일정하지 않은 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 그 모양 역시 불규칙적하게 얻어지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. After the weight of the cobalt nitrate precursor was quantified to carry about 20 wt% of the cobalt metal on the gamma-alumina support (solvent is alcohol, water, etc.), the impregnation method was used to form Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 . Catalyst particles were prepared. A TEM image of the prepared catalyst particles is shown in FIG. 5. XRD analysis showed that the average size of the cobalt oxide crystals in the prepared catalyst particles was about 14.4 nm, but the size of the cobalt oxide in black was not constant. It was also confirmed that the shape was obtained irregularly.
또한, 사용한 지지체의 기공 크기가 9-10 nm인 반면 생성된 산화물 결정의 크기는 약 14.4 nm로, 기공 크기보다도 큰 산화물 결정이 생성되었다. 이는 금속 산화물 결정이 지지체의 기공 내에서만 생성된 것이 아니라 기공 외부에도 생성되었다는 것을 의미한다. 이는 도 6는 TEM 이미지에서도 확인할 수 있는데, 결정이 뭉쳐진 모양으로 생성되거나 알루미나 지지체 표면에 덩어리로 생성된 것을 확인할 수 있다. 참고문헌 R. D. Jones, C. H. Bartholomew, Appl. Catal. 1988, 39, 77-88에 의하여 구한 % 분산도는 8.9 % 였다.In addition, while the pore size of the support used was 9-10 nm, the size of the resulting oxide crystal was about 14.4 nm, resulting in oxide crystals larger than the pore size. This means that the metal oxide crystals are not only generated within the pores of the support but also outside the pores. This can be seen in the TEM image of Figure 6, it can be seen that the crystals are formed in the form of agglomeration or agglomerates on the surface of the alumina support. References R. D. Jones, C. H. Bartholomew, Appl. Catal. The% dispersion obtained by 1988, 39 and 77-88 was 8.9%.
20Co/γ-Al2O3는 또한, 환원시 어느정도 sintering이 되어 환원 전 금속 결정입자 크기는 10.8nm이었는데 환원된 후 16.0nm로 증가하였다.20Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 was also sintered to some extent during reduction, and the metal grain size before reduction was 10.8 nm, but increased to 16.0 nm after reduction.
비교예 3: MSU-F-C에 담지된 코발트 촉매의 제조Comparative Example 3: Preparation of Cobalt Catalyst Supported on MSU-F-C
다공성 탄소 물질로 MSU-F-C를 사용한 것을 제외하고는 실시예 2와 동일한 방법으로 코발트 촉매를 제조하였다(20 Co/MSU-F-C). MSU-F-C는 메조포러스 실리카인 "MSU-F-silica"로부터 합성된 것으로서, 약 30 nm의 큰 기공과 기공 구조 사이에 4 내지 8 nm의 작은 기공을 갖는 메조셀룰러 구조의 다공성 탄소 물질이다. 상기 제조된 20 Co/MSU-F-C의 TEM 이미지를 도 7에 나타내었다. 20 Co/MSU-F-C에서 CoO 결정 크기는 8.7nm이었다. 20 Co/MSU-F-C에서 나노 입자들은 큰 기공 보다 훨씬 작으므로, 구속 효과(confinement effect)가 미비하다고 할 수 있다. 약한 구속 효과와 탄소의 불활성 특성으로 인해, 코발트 나노 결정들은 탄소 지지체와 매우 약한 상호작용을 하며, 약한 구속 효과와 탄소의 불활성 특성은 촉매 제조 또는 FT 합성 동안 나노입자들의 agglomeration 또는 sintering이 일어난다.A cobalt catalyst was prepared in the same manner as in Example 2, except that MSU-F-C was used as the porous carbon material (20 Co / MSU-F-C). MSU-F-C is synthesized from “MSU-F-silica”, a mesoporous silica, and is a mesocellular structured porous carbon material having a large pore of about 30 nm and a small pore of 4 to 8 nm. A TEM image of the 20 Co / MSU-F-C prepared above is shown in FIG. 7. The CoO crystal size was 8.7 nm at 20 Co / MSU-F-C. At 20 Co / MSU-F-C, the nanoparticles are much smaller than the large pores, so the confinement effect is negligible. Due to the weak confinement effect and the inert properties of carbon, cobalt nanocrystals have very weak interactions with the carbon support, and the weak confinement effect and the inert properties of carbon cause agglomeration or sintering of the nanoparticles during catalyst preparation or FT synthesis.
비교예 4: 알루미나 지지체를 사용하며, 조촉매를 첨가한 코발트계 촉매의 제조 (0.05Pt-23Co/γ-Al2O3) Comparative Example 4 Preparation of Cobalt-Based Catalyst Using Alumina Support and Adding Cocatalyst (0.05Pt-23Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 )
비교예 2와 동일한 방법으로 촉매를 제조하되, 0.05 wt%의 Pt를 조촉매 성분으로 포함하며, 코발트의 함량이 23 wt%가 되도록 제조하였다. A catalyst was prepared in the same manner as in Comparative Example 2, but containing 0.05 wt% of Pt as a cocatalyst component and a cobalt content of 23 wt%.

또한, 상기 제조된 실시예 및 비교예 1 내지 4의 촉매의 성능을 비교하기 위해, 상기 촉매를 이용하여 피셔 트롭시 합성 반응을 실시하였다. 이때 반응 조건은, 합성가스 공간속도(GHSV) = 4000 ml/g-cat/h, 온도(T) = 220℃, 압력(P) = 2.0 MPa, H2/CO ratio = 2.0, 합성가스 조성(H2/CO/CO2/Ar) = 57.3/28.4/9.3/5.0 (mol%)로 설정하였다. 상기 피셔 트롭시 합성반응 결과를 하기 표 2에 나타내었다.In addition, in order to compare the performance of the catalysts of Examples and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 prepared above, the Fischer Tropsch synthesis reaction was carried out using the catalyst.

상기 표 2를 통해 알 수 있듯이, 본 발명의 20 Co/CMK-3 촉매는 촉매의 함량이 이에 미치지 못한 촉매(15 Co/CMK-3, 10 Co/CMK-3)에 비해 CO 전환율, C5+ 선택도 및 생산성(FT activity)이 더 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 촉매금속의 결정크기가 일정한 크기로 성장하지 못하면, 반응시 극심한 반응열과 부산물로 생성되는 물에 의하여 금속 결정이 쉽게 산화되거나 소결되어 활성이 크게 떨어지기 때문이다.As can be seen from Table 2, the 20 Co / CMK-3 catalyst of the present invention has a CO conversion rate, C 5 compared to the catalyst content (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) is less than this + Selectivity and productivity (FT activity) was found to be higher. This is because if the crystal size of the catalyst metal does not grow to a certain size, the metal crystals are easily oxidized or sintered by the water generated as the extreme heat of reaction and by-products during the reaction, thereby greatly deactivating the activity.
표 2에 나타난 바와 같이, 20 Co/CMK-3 촉매(실시예 2)는 20 Co/γ-Al2O3 (비교예 2)보다 CO 전환율 및 C5+ 선택도가 더 높다.As shown in Table 2, 20 Co / CMK-3 catalyst (Example 2) has higher CO conversion and C 5+ selectivity than 20 Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 (Comparative Example 2).
뿐만 아니라 촉매의 함량이 20%에 미치지 못하는 촉매는, 기존에 널리 사용되는 알루미나 지지촉매(20 Co/γ-Al2O3)와 비교하여도 전환율과 선택도가 떨어진다. 다만 10 Co/CMK-3, 15 Co/CMK-3 는 투입된 코발트의 양이 20 Co/γ-Al2O3에 비해 작으므로, 투입된 코발트 금속 대비 생산량을 계산하는 FT activity의 값은 비슷하거나 더 높다.In addition, the catalyst content of less than 20% of the catalyst, the conversion and selectivity is also lower than the conventionally widely used alumina support catalyst (20 Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 ). However, since 10 Co / CMK-3 and 15 Co / CMK-3 have a small amount of cobalt added compared to 20 Co / γ-Al 2 O 3 , the value of the FT activity for calculating the yield compared to the cobalt metal added is similar or higher. high.
그러나 본 발명의 20 Co/CMK-3는 기존 알루미나 지지촉매와 비교하여도 전환율, C5+ 선택도, 생산성(FT activity)등 모든 면에서 성능이 뛰어나며, 촉매의 금속함량이 낮은 촉매(15 Co/CMK-3, 10 Co/CMK-3)에 비해서도 모든 면에서 성능이 뛰어남을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 조촉매가 추가로 첨가된 알루미나 지지촉매보다도 전환율이 뛰어나며, MSU-F-C에 담지된 촉매보다도 성능이 뛰어남을 확인할 수 있었다. However, 20 Co / CMK-3 of the present invention has excellent performance in all aspects such as conversion rate, C 5+ selectivity, and productivity (FT activity), compared to conventional alumina supported catalysts, and has a low metal content of catalyst (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) also showed excellent performance in all aspects. In addition, it was confirmed that the conversion rate was higher than that of the alumina supported catalyst to which the promoter was additionally added, and the performance was superior to the catalyst supported on the MSU-FC.
실시예 4: 시간에 따른 촉매의 활성 측정Example 4 Determination of Activity of Catalysts Over Time
상기 실시예 3과 동일한 방법으로 피셔 트롭시 합성 반응을 수행하고, 시간에 따른 FT activity를 측정하고 이를 도 8에 나타내었다. 그 결과 본 발명의 20 Co/CMK-3는 FT activity가 가장 뛰어나고, 35시간 이후부터 안정한 상태로 유지되며, 재산화가 일어나지 않는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나, 촉매의 금속 함량이 낮은 촉매는(15 Co/CMK-3, 10 Co/CMK-3) 안정화되지 못하며, 반응 시간이 흐를수록 재산화되거나 소결되어 FT activity가 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Fischer Tropsch synthesis reaction was carried out in the same manner as in Example 3, FT activity was measured over time and shown in FIG. As a result, the 20 Co / CMK-3 of the present invention was the most excellent FT activity, and remains stable after 35 hours, it was confirmed that the reoxidation does not occur. However, the catalyst with a low metal content of the catalyst (15 Co / CMK-3, 10 Co / CMK-3) could not be stabilized, and it was confirmed that FT activity was decreased by reoxidation or sintering as the reaction time passed.
