Embodiment 1

[0031] Preparation of Zirconium Glue

[0032] Weighing 30g Zr(NO 3 ) 4 ·5H 2 O was added to a 200ml beaker, and 100ml of 70% nitric acid was added to dissolve it and adjust the Zr(NO 3 ) 4 The concentration is 2M. Under the stirring state, ammonia water was slowly added dropwise in the solution until the pH was 4.0-5.0, at this time Zr(NO 3 ) 4 The solution is transformed into a translucent zirconium sol, and deionized water is added to adjust the concentration of the zirconium sol to 1 mol / L, and then aged under air atmosphere for 24-48 hours with stirring.

[0033] Catalyst preparation

[0034] Weigh 15.25g of copper nitrate pentahydrate and dissolve it in 120ml of water, slowly add 52ml of 25% ammonia water to dissolve it and mix well. The zirconium colloid and silica sol (silicon oxide content is 30wt. %) prepared before are added dropwise in this solution, and the volumes of zirconium colloid and silica sol are respectively 113ml and 6ml. The temperature is then ...

[0049] Zirconium glue preparation method is the same as embodiment 1

[0050] Catalyst preparation

[0051] Weigh 15.25g of copper nitrate pentahydrate and dissolve it in 100ml of water, slowly add 52ml of 25% ammonia water to dissolve it and mix well. 113ml of the previously prepared zirconium glue was added dropwise to the solution, and after the dropwise addition was completed, it was aged for 2 hours under stirring. A total of 6ml of silica sol was added dropwise to the above-mentioned material, and after the dropwise addition was completed, it was aged for 2 hours under stirring. Then the temperature is raised to 95°C to precipitate copper, zirconia and silicon oxide. The precipitate was filtered, washed three times with deionized water, dried at 120°C for 12 hours, and calcined at 450°C for 4 hours to form a copper content of 20wt.%, SiO 2 10wt.% Cu / ZrO 2 / SiO 2 Catalyst ready for use.

Abstract

The invention relates to a catalyst used for hydrogenation of oxalate for preparing ethylene glycol and a preparation method thereof. The catalyst comprises copper, an auxiliary agent and zirconia serving as active ingredients and is characterized in that: the auxiliary agent is one or more of Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, BaO, La2O3, MnO and ZnO; the active ingredients account for 10 to 45 percent of the weight of the catalyst; the zirconia accounts for 1 to 85 percent of the weight of the catalyst; and the auxiliary agent accounts for 5 to 80 percent of the weight of the catalyst. By using a more stable chemical structure formed by hydroxy of zirconium sol, the copper and other auxiliary agents, the specific surface area and pore size distribution of the catalyst are improved, the copper has high dispersion degree, and the anti-sintering capacity of the copper catalyst is also enhanced at the same time. The catalyst can stably run for over 3,200 hours in a skill-up test in the hydrogenation ofthe oxalate for preparing 300ml of ethylene glycol; the average conversion rate of the oxalate is over 99.9 percent; and the average yield of the ethylene glycol reaches over 94 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a catalyst and a preparation method for oxalate hydrogenation to ethylene glycol, the catalyst chemical formula is Cu / MO x / ZrO 2 . Among them, copper is the main active component of the catalyst, MO x Composed of main group metal or transition metal oxide, zirconium oxide in the form of zirconium sol and the precursor of the auxiliary agent are added to the copper precursor solution in a step-by-step or synchronous way to finally prepare the catalyst. This preparation method helps to promote high dispersion and thermal stability of the active component copper. The catalyst can be used for gas-phase hydrogenation of oxalate to produce ethylene glycol in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor and can obtain higher ethylene glycol selectivity and yield. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol is an important basic organic raw material. Ethylene glycol was first produced by Wurtz in 1859 by hydrolyzing ethylene glycol diacetate ...
