Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of petrochemical industry, and particularly relates to a heavy oil hydrogenation reactor and a hydrogenation method. Background technique [0002] With the hydrogenation of crude oil heavier and degraded, the proportion of heavy crude oil and secondary processed oil is getting higher and higher. Therefore, heavy oil hydrotreating technology has become one of the hot spots in the research of hydrogenation process. Heavy oil hydrogenation reactors are divided into various types, such as fixed bed hydrogenation reactors, suspended bed hydrogenation reactors, ebullated bed hydrogenation reactors, etc. The fixed bed hydrogenation reactor is the most widely used and can handle a variety of type of heavy oil. [0003] Compared with the traditional fixed bed gas / liquid / solid three-phase hydrogenation process in the heavy oil hydrogenation process, the liquid-phase hydrogenation process has the advantages of fast hydrogenatio...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the following problems still exist in the heavy oil liquid phase hydrogenation reactor and the reaction process: (1) The heavy oil has a high viscosity and the mass transfer rate of the hydrogen oil is low, resulting in a low hydrogenation reaction rate; (2) The catalyst for the heavy oil hydrogenation process is generally Gradation is required, that is, the combination of catalysts with multiple functions and multiple activities is required, but no matter whether you choose low-activity or high-activity catalysts, there are still side reactions on the surface of catalysts with high catalyst activity due to residence time and heat transfer. Or the cracking reaction is serious, which leads to the problem that the catalyst is easy to coke and the liquid yield is low; (3) The hydrogenation process of heavy oil is much more difficult than the hydrogenation process of light oil, especially the impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, and metals are very high. In the reactor, especially in the early stage of the reaction, the impurity concentration of the reactants is high, the reaction driving force is large, and the reaction is violent, resulting in concentrated heat release and uneven temperature rise. Therefore, it is very important to control the slow contact between the raw material and the catalyst; (4) Based on heavy oil raw materials The impurity content is high, and it is very difficult to achieve deep removal, especially in the later stage of the reaction, the inhibitory effect of gas products on the conversion rate is more obvious

The method of the invention is mainly to improve heat transfer and mass transfer efficiency, ensure sufficient residence time of materials in the reactor, and increase conversion rate of heavy oil and yield of light oil, but only through conventional hydrogenation reactor structure, it is not effective The contact time between the catalyst and the raw material is controlled, and the conversion rate of heavy oil and the yield of light oil cannot be guaranteed.

[0007] To sum up, most of the heavy oil hydrogenation reactors in the prior art are designed to improve the hydrogenation reaction efficiency by improving the process of the existing equipment and increasing the residence time of the material, without solving the problem of the heavy oil liquid phase hydrogenation reaction. The process has problems such as low reaction rate, insufficient conversion depth, uneven temperature rise, low liquid yield caused by long residence time, serious side reactions and cracking reactions, etc.
