煤焦油/煤沥青绿色化高附加值利用的新方法研究

Coal tar is an abundant resource as a byproduct of coke production in iron-steel industry in Liaoning province, where there are sevaral big iron-steel companies such as An-Shan iron-steel company. However, the traditional methods now in practical use cannot efficiently convert coal tar and pitch to products such as value-added fine chemicals and functional carbon materials. How to make effective use of coal tar/pitch to produce value-added products such as functional carbon materials including graphene and carbon fibers for energy conversion and storage remains a big challenge. It is well known that there exist strong π-π interactions between highly condensed polycyclic aromatic molecules in coal tar pitch, which is a bottle-neck key issue that hinders the efficient conversion and utilization of coal tar pitch to functional carbon materials with tuned structure and properties for applications such as energy storage. Our previous yet preliminary work has demonstrated that the reactivity, wettability and rheological properties of coal tar pitch can be improved by partially saturating the polycyclic aromatic molecules in the coal tar pitch. This project aims to develop novel strategies to effectively convert and upgrade coal tar pitch by catalytic hydrogenation of coal tar under mild conditions to produce high quality coal-based jet fuels, fine chemicals, and hydrogenated pitch and/or mesophase pitch with tuned properties. The interations between the polycyclic aromatic molecules, sovlents and catalysts under the real conditions in fixed-bed reactor will be studied in detail. With coal tar pitch and the as-made hydrogenated pitch as precursors, the bottom-up strategies including electrospinning, template surface induction and solvothermal methods will be explored to develop new processes for the controlled synthesis of high-performance carbon materials for energy storage. These efforts will help to shed a new light on the kinetic and thermodynamic nature of catalytic hydrogenation reactions of polycyclic aromatic molecules in coal tar pitch, leading to new methods for the large scale production of high-performance carbon materials with tuned structure and properties, and to lay a solid foundation for efficient utilization of coal tar pitch to produce high value-added materials.

辽宁省煤焦油资源丰富，但深加工技术落后，产品附加值低，如何实现煤焦油/煤沥青的高附加值利用是一个需要解决的重大课题，其中，合成高性能碳材料是其高附加值绿色化利用的一个重要方向，但是，高缩合度和高芳香性分子结构所引起的强π-π作用阻碍/限制了煤沥青的高效可控转化利用。本项目将研究高温煤焦油分级转化的新技术策略，发展煤焦油全馏分固定床加氢新技术；将煤沥青转化为适度饱和的稠环芳烃以降低分子间作用力，提高其反应性、润湿性和流变性，合成煤基喷气燃料和精细化学品等高附加值产物；揭示催化加氢过程中稠环芳烃分子和溶剂的作用机制。以煤沥青及加氢改性精制煤沥青为原料，基于自下而上的技术策略，采用静电纺丝、模板表界面诱导及溶剂热等技术在分子层面实现新结构高性能碳材料的可控制备。将诠释稠环芳烃分子催化加氢反应热力学与动力学本质，建立新结构高性能碳材料的宏量制备新方法，为煤焦油/沥青的高效高附加值利用奠定科学基础。
