The invention relates to a
catalysis conversion method for producing aromatic compounds. According to the method,
poor quality heavy
cycle oil and
residual oil are subjected to a hydrotreating reaction in the presence of
hydrogen gas and a hydrogenation catalyst, and the reaction products are separated to obtain gas,
naphtha, hydrogenated diesel oil and hydrogenated residue oil, wherein the hydrogenated diesel oil enters a
catalysis cracking device and is subjected to a
cracking reaction in the presence of a
catalysis cracking catalyst, the reaction products are separated to obtain
dry gas, liquefied gas, catalytic
gasoline containing rich
benzene,
toluene and
xylene, catalytic light diesel oil, distillates with a
distillation range of 250-450 DEG C, and an oil
slurry, and the distillates with the
distillation range of 250-450 DEG C are conveyed to a residue oil hydrotreating device so as to be recycled. According to the present invention, the residue oil hydrogenation condition is completely utilized to achieve saturation of the aromatic ring in the
poor quality heavy
cycle oil to the maximal degree, such that the hydrogenated diesel oil maximally produce
benzene,
toluene and
xylene during catalysis cracking.
