A flexible hydrocracking process for producing lubricant base oil

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible hydrocracking process for producing lubricant base oil. A material obtained after a wax oil raw material is subjected to hydrogenation pretreatment is divided into two parts; a part of the material is separated by a hot high-pressure separator to obtain a liquid phase, and the liquid phase is mixed with hydrogen and then passes through a hydrocracking catalyst bed layer containing a Y-type molecular sieve; the other part of the material is mixed with a gas phase obtained by hot high-pressure separation and hydrocracking tail oil and then passes through a hydroisomerization cracking catalyst bed layer containing an isomerization cracking type molecular sieve; a hydrocracking reaction product and a hydroisomerization cracking reaction product are subjectedto gas-liquid separation and fractionation separately to obtain distillate oil and tail oil products with different specifications; and the hydrocracking tail oil is partially or completely circulatedinto the isomerization cracking reactor. The process provided by the invention can be used for simultaneously producing more than two kinds of naphtha, aviation kerosene, diesel oil and tail oil products with different specifications on one set of hydrogenation process equipment, especially producing high-quality lubricant base oil.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of petroleum refining, and in particular relates to a hydrocracking process for flexibly producing high-quality naphtha, jet fuel, diesel and tail oil products of different properties, especially high-quality lubricating base oil. Background technique [0002] Hydrogenation technology is an important processing method for lightening heavy oil and upgrading the quality of light oil. Hydrocracking technology has developed rapidly due to the advantages of strong feed oil adaptability, good product flexibility, high liquid product yield, and high product quality. The existing hydrocracking technology can be divided into three types according to the processing flow: one-stage series hydrocracking process, single-stage hydrocracking process and two-stage hydrocracking process. According to whether the tail oil is recycled or not, it can be divided into three types: one-way one-pass process, partial cycle process and full c...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, when using the above hydrocracking processes alone, you can only choose different types of hydrocracking catalysts according to your needs, or use two molecular sieve composite catalysts, or use two kinds of hydrocracking catalysts in grades, but these processes only It can produce tail oil products of one nature, that is, the operation flexibility is relatively poor
