Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a Y-type molecular sieve catalytic material for improving gasoline yield and selectivity, and a method for preparing the same. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing weight and quality of crude oil worldwide, heavy oil and residual oil have become the main processing feedstocks used in catalytic cracking processes. Because heavy oil contains a significant amount of gums, asphaltenes, and heavy metals, FCC catalysts are required to possess high matrix activity, strong resistance to metal contamination, and good catalytic activity and selectivity. Among these, FCC catalysts containing Y-type zeolites are currently the most widely used type of catalyst.
[0003] Currently, there are two main forms of Y-type molecular sieve cracking catalysts used in industry. The first is called the semi-synthetic binder type, which involves exchanging and modifying Y-type molecular sieves and then mixing them with kaolin and a binder for spray molding. The second is called the in-situ crystallization type, which involves calcining kaolin spray microspheres at high temperature and then hydrothermally crystallizing them in an alkaline system, thereby growing Y-type molecular sieves on the inner and outer surfaces of the microspheres, and then exchanging and modifying them to obtain the finished catalyst. The in-situ crystallization type has the following characteristics compared to the semi-synthetic binder type catalyst: (1) In-situ crystallization simultaneously generates Y-type molecular sieves and a matrix, which are connected by chemical bonds, resulting in higher thermal and hydrothermal stability; (2) Y-type molecular sieves are uniformly distributed on the inner and outer surfaces of the matrix pores, and the crystal size is about ten times smaller than that of NaY synthesized by the gel method, greatly improving the accessibility and cracking performance of heavy feedstock oil; (3) The kaolin microspheres calcined at high temperature contain an aluminum-rich spinel structure, which has excellent resistance to vanadium-nickel contamination and mechanical wear. Therefore, the in-situ crystallization type cracking catalyst has advantages for the processing of heavy feedstock oil. Among them, the precursor used in the in-situ crystallization catalyst—kaolin microspheres—is the key to this preparation technology.
[0004] Since the 1960s, Engelhard Corporation of the United States has filed a series of patents related to the in-situ crystallization preparation of cracking catalysts, which disclose the main technical characteristics of kaolin microspheres. These include patents such as US3503990, US3506494, US3663165, US4493902, US4965233, and US5023220. This series of patents discloses that the precursor microspheres contain a mixture of two different forms of chemically active calcined clay. These two forms of calcined clay are metakaolin (kaolin calcined to undergo a strong endothermic reaction related to dehydroxylation) and kaolin calcined under more severe conditions than the usual conversion of kaolin to metakaolin, i.e., kaolin calcined to undergo a characteristic exothermic reaction, sometimes referred to as spinel-type calcined kaolin. However, the technology proposed in US4493902 has very high requirements for the raw materials used in spray molding, requiring the use of ultrafine kaolin Satone-NO2 and ultrafine raw clay ASP-600. These ultrafine clays are expensive and not readily available on the market. In addition, this method is energy-intensive, especially since obtaining spinel-type kaolin requires calcination at temperatures as high as 1100℃, which greatly increases the cost of the catalyst.
[0005] Lanzhou Petrochemical Company in China has developed LB-1 and LB-2 in-situ crystallization cracking catalysts. CN1232862 discloses the main technical characteristics of the precursor microspheres: a portion of the parent microparticles are calcined at high temperature to obtain high-temperature calcined microspheres, while another portion is calcined at a lower temperature to obtain metakaolin microspheres. The two types of microspheres are mixed in a certain proportion as the in-situ crystallization precursor microspheres. However, the Y-type molecular sieves prepared by this method have low crystallinity, generally less than 30%, and a silicon-to-aluminum ratio generally less than 5.0.
[0006] CN1778676 mentions adding a structural additive during the spraying process. This structural additive includes one or a mixture of starch, graphite powder, and carboxymethyl cellulose, primarily to improve the pore structure of the kaolin spray microspheres. The amount added is 2-10% of the kaolin mass. This invention can also calcine a portion of the spray microspheres containing this structural additive, with a main particle size of 20-110 μm, at high temperature to obtain high-temperature calcined clay, and calcine another portion of the spray microspheres at a lower temperature to obtain metakaolin. The two types of calcined kaolin are then mixed and used for in-situ crystallization.
[0007] US6942783 discloses an FCC catalyst for improving heavy oil conversion prepared by in-situ crystallization technology. The precursor microspheres are composed of metakaolinite and hydrated kaolinite. These microspheres containing metakaolinite and hydrated kaolinite are calcined at a low temperature before crystallization to avoid the transformation of hydrated kaolinite into metakaolinite.
[0008] US20170362513A1 describes a method for in-situ preparation of improved fluidized bed cracking zeolite catalysts, in which the microspheres are composed of a mixture of spinel kaolinite, transition alumina and metamorphic kaolinite.
[0009] Analysis of the aforementioned patented technologies reveals that the core of in-situ crystallization catalyst preparation lies in first preparing a solid material primarily composed of kaolin and its derivatives, and then, under specific synthesis conditions, generating molecular sieves "in-situ" on the solid material through a liquid-solid reaction. Finally, post-processing yields the desired catalyst. However, the aforementioned patents have not made significant improvements in the composition and preparation process of the precursor kaolin microspheres, essentially continuing Engelhard's earlier two-stage calcination method. The problems of high energy consumption and high cost remain unresolved.
[0010] There are existing patents for adding auxiliary components in the preparation of microsphere precursors to prepare microsphere precursors with multifunctional potential. CN 105813739 A provides an FCC catalyst composition that uses one or more boron oxide components to passivate metals, particularly nickel. Passivation with boron components reduces or prevents the influence of harmful metals (such as nickel) on the cracking reaction. The precursor preparation incorporates non-zeolite components: wherein the non-zeolite material is selected from kaolinite, halloysite, montmorillonite, bentonite, palygorskite, kaolin, amorphous kaolin, metakaolin, mullite, spinel, hydrated kaolin, clay, gibbsite (blue hydrated alumina), boehmite, iron dioxide, alumina, silicon dioxide, silica alumina, silicon dioxide oxide, and sepiolite.
