Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of petrochemical industry and relates to a solvent deasphalting extraction tower and a solvent deasphalting method. Background Art

[0002] Oil processing technology usually uses crude oil as the source. After atmospheric and vacuum distillation, it will produce a variety of distillate oils, such as gasoline, diesel, wax oil and heavy oil. Due to the complex composition of heavy oil, there are many subsequent processing processes, which will produce a variety of oil products, such as residual oil, hydrocracking tail oil, etc. Solvent extraction uses the different solubility of solvents in heavy oil to separate components. It can separate heavy metals and asphaltene in the raw materials at low temperatures, so it is also called solvent deasphalting process.

[0003] The raw materials for solvent deasphalting are mostly residual oil. As one of the important means of deep processing of residual oil, it utilizes the different solubility of light hydrocarbon solvents such as propane and butane on the components in the residual oil to separate deasphalted oil rich in saturated hydrocarbons and aromatics from the residual oil, and at the same time obtain deoiled asphalt rich in colloids and asphaltene. Since the metal compounds basically enter the deoiled asphalt, the content of impurities such as condensed ring compounds, metals, sulfur, nitrogen, etc. in the deasphalted oil is relatively low, which is a raw material with better quality for producing lubricating oil, and can also be used as a raw material for catalytic cracking or hydrocracking.

[0004] The extraction tower is the core equipment of the solvent deasphalting device. The separation effect directly affects the yield and quality of the product. Traditional extraction towers include baffle towers, mechanical turntable towers, etc. In recent years, new packing towers have also been developed, such as the honeycomb grid regular packing extraction tower disclosed in CN2090288U, whose internal structure is mainly a porous rib-by-time liquid distributor, a honeycomb grid regular packing and a corrugated plate packing support; the packing extraction tower with a redistributor or a vertical baffle disclosed in CN 102698465A, etc., can achieve the improvement of mass transfer and heat transfer performance and extraction and separation efficiency. The internal components in the extraction tower play a role in inhibiting the continuous phase from mixing back and promoting dispersed mass transfer during the extraction process, but the viscosity of heavy oil is usually high, and complex internal components are prone to cause grid or packing deposition and blockage, which in turn affects the mass transfer and heat transfer effect.

[0005] CN 105567300A discloses a solvent deasphalting extraction tower and a solvent deasphalting method. The inner space of the tower body of the extraction tower is provided with a filler extraction and separation zone, a solvent distribution zone and a heavy component collection zone in order from top to bottom. The filler extraction and separation zone includes a sedimentation separation zone and a solvent countercurrent extraction zone. The sedimentation separation zone is provided with a heat exchanger and at least one group of filler components. The solvent countercurrent extraction zone is provided with a plurality of groups of stacked filler components and support beams. In the structure of the extraction tower, there is still a problem that the light components generated in the extraction section are contaminated by new residual oil during the rising process, causing back mixing, and the sedimentation section adopts an external heating method, which has the disadvantage of uneven temperature distribution.

[0006] CN 105586076A discloses a method for separating crude oil. The method involves distilling the crude oil under atmospheric pressure to obtain atmospheric residue, which is then introduced into an extraction tower for extraction using a main extraction solvent to obtain a primary extract. The primary extract passes through at least three temperature gradient zones with successively increasing temperatures from bottom to top and reaches the top of the tower. Side line extracts are taken out respectively through side extraction lines respectively arranged in each temperature gradient zone, and a tower top extract is led out from the top of the tower. The method does not focus on the structure of the extraction tower for the extraction treatment of atmospheric residue, and the sedimentation section still adopts a multi-stage external heat exchange method, which is likely to cause the problem of uneven temperature distribution, and no solution is mentioned for the back-mixing problem that may exist in the extraction section.

[0007] In summary, for the equipment and process used in solvent deasphalting, the structure of the extraction tower needs to be improved so that it can reduce the amount of solvent used and the backmixing in the extraction section, ensure the uniformity of the temperature distribution in the sedimentation section, improve the quality and yield of the deasphalted oil, and reduce energy consumption.

An extraction section solvent feed port is provided below the extraction section. At least two sedimentation section high-temperature solvent feed ports are evenly arranged on the side wall of the sedimentation section along the axial direction.

[0011] In the present invention, various heavy oil components generated during crude oil processing need to be further processed. Solvent deasphalting is one of the important processes for deep processing. In the present invention, an extraction tower is used for solvent deasphalting, wherein the structure of the extraction tower is improved on the basis of the original division of the extraction section and the sedimentation section. The extraction section is designed as a whole and the temperature is kept basically consistent, so that the soluble components in the raw oil are dissolved to the maximum extent, and the volume of the extraction section is reduced, thereby reducing the back mixing during the extraction process; a plurality of high-temperature solvent feed ports are arranged in the sedimentation section to replace the arrangement of the external heat exchange pipeline, so as to ensure that the temperature distribution of the sedimentation section is uniform, and the oil product coming up from the lower part of the extraction tower is uniformly heated, so as to reduce the loss of deasphalted oil caused by local overheating, and alleviate the problem of excessive internal reflux, so as to improve the yield of deasphalted oil and reduce the content of impurities such as residual carbon therein; the extraction tower has a simple structure, a significant improvement effect and a low cost.

[0021] Preferably, a feed distributor is provided at the position of the high-temperature solvent feed port of each settling section, and a packing layer is provided above each feed distributor.

[0022] In the present invention, the feed distributor is arranged so that the high temperature solvent in the settling section can fully contact the oil extracted from the crude oil, and a packing layer is arranged above the feed distributor to provide a place for heat and mass transfer for the oil. If the separation accuracy is required to be high, the high temperature solvent in the settling section can be first heat exchanged with the ascending flow in the tower and then sprayed into the tower.

[0023] On the other hand, the present invention provides a method for solvent deasphalting using the above-mentioned solvent deasphalting extraction tower, the method comprising the following steps:

[0024] (1) The raw oil and the diluent solvent are mixed and added to the extraction tower, and then contacted with the extraction section solvent added at the bottom of the extraction tower in countercurrent to achieve preliminary separation of light and heavy components;

[0032] Preferably, the addition temperature of the raw material oil and the dilution solvent after mixing in step (1) is 40-140°C, for example 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, 80°C, 90°C, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, 130°C or 140°C, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0033] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the extraction stage solvent in step (1) includes propane and / or butane.

[0034] Preferably, the volume ratio of the extraction stage solvent to the feedstock oil in step (1) is 1:1 to 3:1, for example 1:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, 2.5:1 or 3:1, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0035] Preferably, the temperature for adding the solvent in the extraction stage of step (1) is 40-140°C, for example, 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, 80°C, 90°C, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, 130°C or 140°C, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other values ​​not listed within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0036] In the present invention, the extraction section solvent is selected from propane, butane or a mixture thereof, and the feed amount is determined according to the dissolution requirement of the vacuum residue oil. In the present invention, the temperature of the extraction section is controlled to be substantially constant and consistent with the feed temperature of the feed oil, that is, the temperature of the extraction section from the feed oil inlet to the bottom of the extraction section is substantially consistent.

[0037] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the temperature of the extraction section in step (1) is kept consistent from top to bottom, which is the same as the addition temperature of the feedstock oil, so as to reduce energy consumption and reduce backmixing.

[0038] Preferably, the operating pressure of the extraction section in step (1) is 2.0 to 6.0 MPa, for example, 2.0 MPa, 2.5 MPa, 3.0 MPa, 3.5 MPa, 4.0 MPa, 4.5 MPa, 5.0 MPa, 5.5 MPa or 6.0 MPa, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values ​​not listed within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0039] Preferably, the residence time of the extraction section in step (1) is 10 to 40 min, for example, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, 30 min or 40 min, but is not limited to the listed values. Other values ​​not listed within the numerical range are also applicable, preferably 15 to 20 min.

[0040] Preferably, the light components dissolved in the extraction stage solvent in step (1) include saturated components, aromatic components and light colloids.

[0041] In the present invention, the components that can be dissolved by the solvent in the extraction stage may vary depending on the type of raw oil, but according to the source and type of common heavy oil components, they usually include saturated fractions, aromatic fractions, colloids and asphaltenes, among which colloids are divided into light colloids and heavy colloids, which can be obtained by the heavy oil six-component analysis method.

[0042] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the settling section in step (2) is provided with 2 to 4 settling section high-temperature solvent feed ports, for example 2, 3 or 4, to respectively add the settling section high-temperature solvent.

[0043] Preferably, the high-temperature solvent in the settling section of step (2) includes propane and / or butane.

[0045] In the present invention, the type of high-temperature solvent selected in the sedimentation stage is the same as that of the solvent in the extraction stage, but the temperature is relatively high. At this time, the solvent is in a supercritical state. After mixing with the oil extracted in the extraction stage, the solubility of the solvent decreases due to the increase in temperature, and some light components are precipitated from the solvent, thereby achieving the purpose of purification.

[0046] In the present invention, the material produced from the deasphalted oil outlet at the top of the extraction tower is deasphalted oil carrying a large amount of solvent. After further heating in a heating furnace, it enters a deasphalted oil supercritical recovery tower for supercritical solvent recovery. The internal temperature and the temperature of the separated high-temperature solvent are 220-280° C. Most of the solvent has been recovered in this process. In order to reduce solvent loss, the material after solvent recovery will continue to enter the deasphalted oil stripping tower for stripping to recover the remaining solvent carried in the deasphalted oil; similarly, the material produced from the deoiled asphalt outlet will also enter the deoiled asphalt stripping tower for stripping after being heated to remove the solvent contained in the deoiled asphalt; the stripped solvent contains part of water vapor and cannot directly enter the settling section of the extraction tower, so only the solvent recovered by the deasphalted oil supercritical recovery tower is used as the high-temperature solvent in the settling section.

[0047] Preferably, the volume ratio of the total amount of high-temperature solvent added in the sedimentation section of step (2) to the feedstock oil is 3:1 to 8:1, for example 3:1, 4:1, 5:1, 6:1, 7:1 or 8:1, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable, preferably 4:1 to 6:1.

[0048] Preferably, in step (2), the amount of high-temperature solvent added to the sedimentation section from each high-temperature solvent feed port of each sedimentation section increases sequentially from bottom to top, and the temperature gradient in the sedimentation section is controlled by controlling the amount of solvent added at each feed port.

[0049] Preferably, the temperature gradient in the sedimentation section of step (2) is 2 to 6°C, for example, 2°C, 2.5°C, 3°C, 3.5°C, 4°C, 4.5°C, 5°C, 5.5°C or 6°C, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0050] In the present invention, when the high-temperature solvent in the sedimentation section is added from different feed ports, the amount added increases from bottom to top, so that the temperature of the extracted light components also gradually increases, which helps to ensure that the extracted light components are evenly heated and heated. The selection of the temperature gradient is related to the actual flow rate of the light components and the high-temperature solvent in the sedimentation section.

[0051] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the operating pressure of the sedimentation section in step (2) is 2.0 to 6.0 MPa, for example, 2.0 MPa, 2.5 MPa, 3.0 MPa, 3.5 MPa, 4.0 MPa, 4.5 MPa, 5.0 MPa, 5.5 MPa or 6.0 MPa, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0052] Preferably, the residence time of the sedimentation section in step (2) is 20 to 50 min, for example, 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 35 min, 40 min or 50 min, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable, preferably 25 to 35 min.

[0053] Preferably, the temperature at the top of the extraction tower in step (2) is 60-150°C, for example, 60°C, 70°C, 80°C, 100°C, 120°C, 140°C or 150°C, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.

[0054] Preferably, the deasphalted oil in step (2) is obtained by heating the components extracted from the top of the tower, recovering the supercritical solvent and evaporating the solvent by steam stripping, wherein water vapor is used as the stripping gas.

[0055] Preferably, the yield of the deasphalted oil in step (2) is 20 to 62 wt%, for example, 20 wt%, 25 wt%, 30 wt%, 35 wt%, 40 wt%, 45 wt%, 50 wt%, 55 wt%, 60 wt% or 62 wt%, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other values ​​not listed within the numerical range are also applicable. Compared with the conventional solvent deasphalting process, the yield of deasphalted oil can be increased by 3 to 5 wt%.

[0056] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the heavy component in step (3) includes heavy colloids and asphaltenes.

[0057] Preferably, the bottom temperature of the extraction tower in step (3) is 40-140°C, for example, 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, 80°C, 100°C, 120°C or 140°C, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the numerical range are also applicable.
