Application scenario and case analysis of carbon monoxide catalyst

Carbon monoxide catalysts have a wide range of applications, such as:
1. Used in the field of environmental protection: industrial exhaust gas purification, automobile exhaust treatment, indoor air purification energy field, fuel cell, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, etc.;
2. Used in chemical production field: organic synthesis, material preparation, etc.;
3. Used in other fields: mine rescue capsule and refuge chamber, electronic chip manufacturing workshop, etc.
Specific application cases of carbon monoxide catalyst in industrial production:
1. A large iron and steel plant produces a large amount of tail gas containing carbon monoxide in the production process of blast furnace ironmaking. By installing the exhaust gas treatment equipment containing iron based carbon monoxide catalyst, the carbon monoxide in the exhaust gas is catalyzed to carbon dioxide, which not only reduces the harmful gas emissions, but also can be used as fuel for other processes after treatment, and realize the recycling of resources.
2. The highly active multi-feed steam conversion catalyst combination independently developed and produced by Sinopec has been industrialized for the first time in the CO plant of Yangzi Petrochemical. The operation results show that the methane conversion rate is more than 93%, which not only meets the process requirements of the device, but also greatly reduces the procurement cost and shorens the procurement cycle.
With the country's increasingly strict environmental requirements and policies, major enterprises will also strengthen the control and treatment of carbon monoxide emissions, which stimulates the demand for carbon monoxide catalysts in the market, and the application and performance of carbon monoxide catalysts are worth more in-depth research and exploration. Copper oxide can mainly be applied to
Energy field
Methane oxidation to methanol: In the engineering facilities of deep-water natural gas fields, using nano copper oxide as catalyst, methane can be converted into methanol in situ under low temperature and high pressure. Methanol is a hydrate inhibitor in natural gas pipelines and a chemical injection agent for natural gas hydrate exploitation, which is conducive to cost reduction and safety.
Fuel cells: Copper oxide catalysts can be used in fuel cells to promote oxygen reduction reactions and hydrogen oxidation reactions to improve the performance and efficiency of fuel cells.
Environmental protection field
Treatment of phenol-containing wastewater: Copper oxide can be used as the activator of persulfate at room temperature and under the condition of pH adjustment, it can work together with persulfate and bicarbonate to achieve the degradation of phenolic pollutants in phenol-containing wastewater, and the removal rate can reach 100%.
Automobile exhaust purification: In the automobile exhaust treatment, the copper oxide catalyst can participate in the oxidation reaction of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, converting them into carbon dioxide and water, reducing the pollution of the exhaust to the environment.
Chemical industry
Catalytic oxidation reaction: In organic synthesis, the copper oxide catalyst can be used for the oxidation reaction of alcohols, aldehydes and other organic substances to convert them into corresponding carboxylic acids or ketones.
Carbon dioxide electric reduction: In the field of electrochemistry, copper oxide catalysts can be used for the electric reduction reaction of carbon dioxide, converting carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide, formic acid, methanol and other high value-added chemicals, helping to alleviate the environmental energy crisis and help achieve carbon neutrality.
