Filtering of high-pressure hydrogenation catalysts

2009-04-02View Original

Thread Content

Regarding high-pressure hydrogenation production, what is the safer and more effective method for filtering palladium-on-carbon catalysts? As far as I know, the common methods at present include filter pressing, microporous filtration, vacuum filtration, etc. Everyone is welcome to discuss.

We use vacuum pumping, but be sure not to pump it completely dry, as it can catch fire! ! !

It depends on the particle size of the catalyst; a choice must be made based on the properties of the material and the catalyst’s particle size

The product I need is in the filtrate; failing to drain it will affect the yield.

We use nitrogen pressure filtration here; to prevent a fire, it’s sufficient to cut off the oxygen supply. It is recommended to use a nitrogen pressure of 0.2–0.3 MPa initially, and to employ vacuum extraction when drying is nearly complete. Decarbonization filters can also be considered.

A closed self-cleaning filter will do; it is driven by air pressure, and an explosion-proof control system can be used, so this issue can definitely be resolved

For hydrogenation catalysts, we use cotton pulp paper for filtration; both pressure filtration and vacuum filtration are feasible. But the filter iron needs to be soaked in water, and once it dries, it must be burned.

7#, I’ve tried the method you mentioned as well, but after being treated with organic solvents, palladium-on-carbon catalysts catch fire very easily when exposed to air. Nitrogen pressure filtration or sealed filtration should be able to solve the problem. Also, which member can provide the MSDS for the palladium carbon catalyst?

During the production process, after the catalyst participates in a chemical reaction, it should be separated from the reaction solution promptly so that it can be used in the next batch of reactions. If a complete separation is not achieved, it not only affects the quality of the chemical reactants but also increases production costs due to catalyst loss. The particles of solid catalysts are very fine, and it is generally difficult for filter fabrics to separate them completely. Given the characteristics of these catalysts, the filtering equipment must be airtight and safe, with components that are strong enough and allow for easy regeneration; repeated opening of the filter should be avoided. Metal membranes can be used as components, and after filtration, the slurry can be discharged into an upstream storage tank for reuse. The catalyst filters produced by this company can separate particles ranging from 0.45 to 1 um, with a filtration efficiency of 100%. The operation for removing the filter cake is simple, and backwashing is easy; the regeneration effect is good, as well as offering excellent resistance to acids and alkalis. It features high filtration precision and a long service life. The rapid backwashing method using an air-water mixture enables efficient and simple physical regeneration of the microporous tubes, allowing them to be used for extended periods. It also boasts excellent corrosion resistance, convenient slag discharge, as well as fast, stable, and reliable operation. A microporous filter element is suspended inside the enclosed chamber, offering the advantages of a large filtering area per unit volume and minimal space requirement. The chamber is equipped with a main filtering area that enables rapid filtration of the material, as well as an auxiliary filtering area that ensures all remaining material in the chamber is filtered out completely, leaving no residual liquid.

The automatic precious metal filter that we have developed through serving foreign clients can maximize your production efficiency and minimize the use of catalysts – a typical client used 3 million units of catalyst before, but saved 2 million units after adopting this filter. It eliminates concerns related to safety and environmental protection, while also resulting in the lowest energy consumption!
