Problems solved by technology

To limit the size of the recycle stream, this means providing a relatively high severity in the (single) hydrocracking reactor, resulting in excessive production of methane
Furthermore, WO2012 / 071137 and GB1148967 do not describe the equivalent of a hydrocracking process producing benzene, toluene, xylene (BTX) products
[0006] Also, US6379533 and US3718575 describe (integrated) multi-stage hydrocracking processes but only aim at producing LPG without controlling the C3 to C4 ratio or the total amount of C4 produced

Embodiment approach

[0108] In some particularly preferred embodiments,

[0109] Step b) further involves separating C5 from the first hydrocracked product stream for recycling back to the first hydrocracking of step a);

[0110] Step b) further provides a heavy hydrocarbon stream comprising C6+, and

[0111] Subjecting the heavy hydrocarbon stream resulting from step b) to a second hydrocracking in the presence of a second hydrocracking catalyst to produce a second hydrocracked product stream comprising BTX, wherein the second hydrocracking is more severe than the first hydrocracking Hydrogen cracking is more severe.

Embodiment 1

[0132] A feed consisting of n-pentane was subjected to hydrocracking to determine the effect of hydrocracking conditions on product composition. The experiments were carried out in a 12 mm reactor with the catalyst bed located in the isothermal zone of the reactor heater. The catalysts used were 2 g of Pt on alumina (0.75 wt% Pt loading) and H-ZSM-5 (SiO 2 / Al 2 o 3 =80) mixture.

[0133] The feed stream is fed into the reactor. The feed stream entered the vaporizer zone prior to the reactor where it was vaporized at 280°C and mixed with hydrogen. The conditions used in these experiments were: WHSV=1 / hr, the pressure was 1379 kPa (200 psig) and the molar ratio H 2 / hydrocarbon is 3. The temperature of the isothermal zone in the reactor was varied between 375 and 450°C. The reactor effluent was sampled in the gas phase to an on-line gas chromatograph. Product analysis was performed hourly.

Embodiment 2

[0139] A feed consisting of n-paraffins was subjected to hydrocracking to determine the effect of hydrocarbon chain length on the degree of conversion. The experiments were carried out in a 12 mm reactor with the catalyst bed located in the isothermal zone of the reactor heater. The catalysts used were 2 g of Pt on alumina (0.75 wt% Pt loading) and H-ZSM-5 (SiO 2 / Al 2 o 3 =80) mixture.

[0140] The feed stream is fed into the reactor. The feed stream entered the vaporizer zone prior to the reactor where it was vaporized at 280°C and mixed with hydrogen. The conditions used in these experiments were: WHSV=1 / hr, the pressure was 1379 kPa (200 psig) and the molar ratio H 2 / hydrocarbon is 3. The temperature of the isothermal zone in the reactor was varied between 300 and 500°C. The reactor effluent was sampled in the gas phase to an on-line gas chromatograph. Product analysis was performed hourly.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for producing C2 and C3 hydrocarbons comprising a) subjecting a mixed hydrocarbon feed stream to a first hydrocracking in the presence of a first hydrocracking catalyst to produce a first hydrocracking product stream; b) separating the first hydrocracking product stream to provide a light hydrocarbon stream comprising C4-hydrocarbons, and c) subjecting the light hydrocarbon stream to C4 hydrocracking in the presence of a C4 hydrocracking catalyst to obtain a C4 hydrocracking product stream comprising C2 and C3 hydrocarbons.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese Patent Application No. 201580070373.9 entitled "Method for Producing C2 and C3 Hydrocarbons" with an application date of December 15, 2015. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a process for producing C2 and C3 hydrocarbons from a mixed hydrocarbon feed stream and a system for performing such a process. Background technique [0003] It is known that liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) can be produced by converting naphtha or similar materials by cracking, such as hydrocracking. Known methods of converting naphtha-like material to LPG all suffer from the production of LPG masses with an undesirably high ratio of C4 hydrocarbons (hereinafter, C# hydrocarbons are sometimes referred to as C#, where # is a positive integer) to C3 hydrocarbons or excessive The disadvantage of producing more methane. The undesirably high ratio of C4 to C3 hydrocarbons results in an imbalance in the amount of C3 and C4 de...
