Catalytic cracking catalyst regeneration method and device

Abstract

The invention relates to a catalytic cracking catalyst regeneration method and a catalytic cracking catalyst regeneration device. The method comprises the following steps: (1) a spent catalyst is introduced into a first regenerator, such that the spent catalyst contacts a first oxygen-containing gas in the first regenerator; and coke-burning regeneration is carried out, such that semi-regenerated catalyst is obtained; and (2) the semi-regenerated catalyst is introduced into a second regenerator, such that the semi-regenerated catalyst contacts a second oxygen-containing gas in a catalyst dense phase zone in the second regenerator; and coke-burning regeneration is continued; gas produced after coke burning contacts methanol, and combustion is continued. The device comprises the first regenerator and the second regenerator. The first regenerator and the second regenerator have dense phase zones and dilute phase zones. The dense phase zone of the first regenerator communicates with the dense phase zone of the second regenerator through a conduit. A methanol distributor is arranged in the second regenerator. With the method provided by the invention, catalyst dilute phase bed layer temperature of the regenerators can be substantially reduced, such that regenerator stable operation can be realized, and catalytic cracking process production distribution can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a catalytic cracking catalyst regeneration method and catalytic cracking catalyst regeneration equipment. Background technique [0002] Catalytic cracking is the most important processing technology for lightening heavy oil in refineries. During the catalytic cracking process, heavy oil is cracked into gas and light hydrocarbons on the surface of the catalyst, and at the same time, carbon deposits appear on the surface of the catalyst, which leads to a significant decline in activity. In order to restore the cracking activity of the catalyst and provide the required heat, the coke-deposited catalyst is sent to the regenerator after the reaction to burn off the coke attached to the catalyst and restore the activity of the catalyst. Coke combustion will release a large amount of CO 2 and CO. A large number of industrial data show that the dilute phase space for regeneration is very large, and the residence time of the flue gas ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] From the point of view of the existing technology, most of the traditional CO combustion aids use platinum as the active component. Platinum is expensive and has limited resources. Moreover, the other main disadvantage of the traditional noble metal-supported CO combustion aids is that the loaded noble metals are exposed to high temperature water vapor. It is easy to condense and deactivate, so it is necessary to continu...
