AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the initial startup of the aromatics complex or after the disproportionation catalyst is regenerated, the excessively high catalyst activity leads to a high content of non-aromatic hydrocarbons in benzene, making it impossible to produce qualified benzene products in a short period of time.

Method used

By adding a cross-line and valve to the aromatics complex, non-aromatic benzene is directly sent to the extraction feed tank via the benzene-toluene non-aromatic mixed aromatics non-aromatics non-aromatics line, avoiding its entry into the disproportionation clay feed tank. The extraction unit removes non-aromatics, shortening the time for benzene products to reach the qualified standard.

Benefits of technology

By improving the reaction system and methods, the time for benzene products to reach the qualified standard has been shortened to 3-5 days after initial start-up or catalyst regeneration, which is nearly half of the original technology's 2-week time.

[0025] Further, the reaction system further comprises a top benzene line 18, the entrance of the top benzene line 18 is connected to the outlet of the benzene reflux pump E, the outlet of the top benzene line 18 is connected to the mixed aromatic hydrocarbon unqualified line 8, the mixed aromatic hydrocarbon unqualified line 8 is connected to the entrance of the extraction raw material tank K, and a control valve group is arranged on the top benzene line 18.

[0029] The method for accelerating the qualification of benzene product in an aromatic hydrocarbon combined device sends the benzene with non-aromatic hydrocarbon content exceeding the standard generated within the predetermined time after initial start-up of the aromatic hydrocarbon device or regeneration of the disproportionation catalyst to an extraction raw material tank, and sends the benzene from the extraction raw material tank to an extraction unit of the aromatic hydrocarbon combined device, and removes the non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the benzene through extraction distillation.

[0030] Based on the above technical solution, it is necessary to note that the benzene generated 3-5 days after start-up needs to be sent to the extraction raw material tank (this is the improved benzene product qualification time, and the previous benzene product qualification time is about 2 weeks), and the unqualified toluene needs to be sent to the extraction raw material tank K together with the unqualified benzene at the initial start-up stage, and the toluene is qualified soon, and then it can not be sent to the extraction raw material tank K, and the toluene is qualified and can directly participate in the reaction, and at this time, the benzene needs to be continuously sent to the extraction raw material tank K, and the benzene is qualified and is sent to the benzene product storage tank H. The main reason for the unqualified benzene is that the non-aromatic hydrocarbon content in the benzene exceeds the standard, and after being sent to the extraction raw material tank, the unqualified benzene needs to be sent to the extraction unit of the aromatic hydrocarbon combined device, and the non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the unqualified benzene is removed through extraction distillation.

[0031] The technical solution of the present application is improved on the basis of the existing technical process. In the original technical process, the benzene generated at the initial start-up stage is sent to the utility engineering public disproportionation white clay feed tank through the benzene-toluene unqualified line, the benzene tower overhead material is sent to the utility engineering extraction raw material tank through the benzene extraction, and the material is separated from the non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the benzene through the extraction unit of the aromatic hydrocarbon combined device, so that the benzene is gradually qualified. However, the problem is that after the unqualified benzene is sent to the disproportionation white clay feed tank, the material in the tank returns to the benzene tower, that is, the non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the benzene is brought into the benzene tower, and the qualification time of the benzene is prolonged.

[0032] The present application aims at the above-mentioned defects, shortens the time for benzene product to reach the qualified standard by reforming the on-site pipeline. The on-site reforming scheme is as follows: a head is cut on the benzene-toluene unqualified pipeline at the pipeline gallery of the aromatics combination device extraction unit, a new pipeline a is added, the pipeline is extended to the ground, a third valve 14 (DN150, 150LB) is added to the pipeline, a first guide valve 9 (DN20, 800LB) is added before the valve, and the pipeline after the valve is connected to the benzene-toluene unqualified post-line pipeline; a head is cut after the valve of the non-aromatic mixed aromatic unqualified pipeline from the device to the public extraction raw material tank pipeline, a new pipeline b is added, the pipeline is connected to the valve before the new pipeline a of the benzene-toluene unqualified pipeline, a first valve 10 (DN150, 150LB) and a second valve 12 (DN150, 150LB) are added between the pipelines, and a second guide valve 11 (DN20, 800LB) is added. The key point of the present application is to add a cross line and a valve between the benzene-toluene unqualified pipeline and the non-aromatic mixed aromatic unqualified pipeline to the disproportionation white clay feed tank pipeline in the aromatics combination device, at the initial start-up of the aromatics combination device and the initial start-up after the disproportionation catalyst regeneration, the unqualified benzene is sent to the public engineering extraction raw material tank directly by using the added cross line instead of being sent to the public engineering disproportionation white clay feed tank originally, so that the non-aromatic hydrocarbon in the disproportionation white clay feed tank is avoided to enter the benzene tower again, thereby shortening the time for the benzene product to reach the qualified standard.

[0033] The above-mentioned is only the best embodiment of the present application. Obviously, the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and there can be many variations. All the variations which can be directly derived or thought from the disclosed content by the ordinary skilled in the art should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
