  • Publication number: 20220241759
    Abstract: A regeneration method of a nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst includes the following steps: roasting the nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere to obtain a regenerated nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst. The method is a universal method, which is suitable for nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts and can be used to regenerate a nitrogen-containing carbon catalyst for producing vinyl chloride (VC) through 1,2-dichloroethane cracking. The method can greatly reduce the production cost of the catalyst and increase the service life of the catalyst, and a regeneration process thereof is fast, simple, and controllable, and does not require high temperatures.

  • Patent number: 11338276
    Abstract: A catalyst for preparing chloroethylene by cracking 1,2-dichloroethane and a preparation and regeneration method thereof are disclosed in the present application. A catalyst for preparing chloroethylene by cracking 1,2-dichloroethane includes a carrier and a nitrogen-containing carbon as an active component of the catalyst with the nitrogen-containing carbon being loaded on the carrier. The method for preparing the catalyst includes: supporting an organic matter on an inorganic porous carrier and then performing a carbonization-nitridation process by pyrolysis in an atmosphere containing the nitrogen-containing compound. The method for regenerating the catalyst includes: calcinating the catalyst with deactivated carbon deposit in an oxidizing atmosphere to remove all the carbonaceous portions on the surface, and repeating the above preparation process of the catalyst.

  • Patent number: 11305263
    Abstract: A method for preparing a supported carbon catalyst, the method includes at least the following steps: contacting a gas containing an organic silicon source with a silicon oxide-based material to obtain a precursor; contacting the precursor with a gas containing an organic carbon source to obtain the supported carbon catalyst. The temperature and energy consumption of the chemical vapor deposition of heteroatom-containing carbon material on silica-based materials can be greatly reduced in this method, and the cost of the catalyst can be effectively reduced.
