Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical industry, in particular to an agent for preventing dry distillation from coking. Background Art

[0002] Retort coking prevention agents are chemical additives specifically designed to prevent coking caused by high temperatures during retort operations in petroleum, coal chemical, and other production processes. Coking refers to the formation of coke on the surface of equipment during the high-temperature cracking process due to incomplete reaction or pyrolysis of some substances. In severe cases, this can cause equipment blockage, corrosion, and even shutdown. Retort coking prevention agents improve the reaction environment, reduce the tendency to form coke, and reduce coke accumulation at high temperatures, thereby extending equipment life and improving production efficiency. These agents typically have excellent thermal stability, dispersibility, and the ability to inhibit coke formation, which can significantly reduce the risk of coking and improve the stability of processes such as catalytic cracking.

[0003] Although the anti-coking agents in the existing technology can inhibit the coking phenomenon to a certain extent, they still have some shortcomings and limitations, mainly including the following aspects: Limited effect of the agent: The coking inhibition effect of the anti-coking agent may decrease under high temperature and complex reaction environment, especially when the temperature exceeds a certain critical point, the stability and effect of the agent will be significantly reduced, and it is impossible to completely eliminate the formation of coke. Side effects and pollution problems: Some agents may release harmful substances during use, or the residues of the agent itself may cause corrosion to the equipment. Long-term use will increase the maintenance cost of the system. In addition, some agents may pollute the environment and increase the pressure on waste gas and wastewater treatment. Poor adaptability: Some anti-coking agents on the market are often only suitable for specific raw materials or processes. They have poor adaptability to the type of raw materials and changes in operating conditions. They are difficult to cope with different types of dry distillation reactions, resulting in application limitations. High cost of use: High-efficiency anti-coking agents are usually expensive and require precise control of the amount added. Otherwise, insufficient or excessive addition may occur, affecting the use effect and increasing production costs. Accumulation and difficulty in cleaning: After long-term use, anti-coking agents may accumulate in the system, requiring regular cleaning. Failure to do so can affect the effectiveness of the agent and the normal operation of the equipment. This cleaning process can cause unnecessary wear or corrosion to the equipment. Impact on catalysts: In certain high-temperature retorting processes, the addition of anti-coking agents can affect catalyst activity, reduce reaction efficiency, or even alter the reaction path, thereby affecting the quality and yield of the final product.

[0004] For this reason, we propose to prevent the dry distillation coking agent. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an agent for preventing coking from dry distillation, comprising the following components:

[0006] 5-30% by mass of an organosilicon compound;

[0007] 3-15% by weight of a metal salt scorch inhibitor, selected from one or more of aluminum salts, calcium salts, magnesium salts, and zinc salts;

[0008] 0.5-5% by mass of a nonionic surfactant;

[0009] 5-20% by weight of the sustained-release agent is selected from polymer sustained-release materials.

[0010] Preferably, the organosilicon compound is one or more selected from silane and siloxane.

[0011] Preferably, the metal salt scorch inhibitor is one or more of aluminum chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride and zinc chloride.

[0012] Preferably, the nonionic surfactant is one or more of polyvinyl alcohol, fatty alcohol polyether or alkylbenzene polyether.

[0013] Preferably, the sustained-release agent is one or more of polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylate, polyurethane or modified starch.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an agent for preventing coking by dry distillation, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This anti-coking agent for retorting uses a composite formula of an organosilicon compound and a metal salt coke inhibitor, which works synergistically to significantly reduce the probability of coke formation. Especially at extremely high temperatures, these ingredients effectively disrupt the molecular structure of coke formation, reducing coke deposition and coking, thereby effectively maintaining cleanliness and efficient operation of equipment. This not only enhances coke inhibition but also provides antioxidant and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, it decomposes at high temperatures to produce cleansing free radicals, thereby preventing coke deposition and improving system stability.

[0016] 2. The organosilicon compounds, metal salts, and nonionic surfactants used in this anti-coking agent are all low-toxic and harmless, causing no pollution to the production environment. Furthermore, no volatile toxic gases are released, complying with environmental protection requirements. The addition of a sustained-release agent slowly releases the coking-inhibiting components under high-temperature conditions, ensuring the agent's continued effectiveness over a long period of time, avoiding the inconvenience of frequent additions and reducing costs. This sustained-release property is particularly suitable for continuous production processes, ensuring the agent's stability throughout the entire retorting process.

[0017] 3. This anti-coking agent for dry distillation is suitable for a variety of raw materials and different reaction conditions. It can adapt to a variety of dry distillation reaction systems such as low-rank coal, oil shale, and waste tires, and is not limited by the reaction raw materials or temperature. At the same time, it will not negatively affect the activity of the catalyst, ensuring the stability of the catalytic reaction.

[0018] 4. The ingredients in this anti-coking agent will not corrode the surface of the retort reactor and other equipment, reducing the frequency of equipment maintenance and extending the service life of the equipment. Due to its excellent thermal stability, it can maintain long-term stability at extremely high temperatures, ensuring the long-term and efficient operation of the equipment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
