Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fluidized catalytic cracking technology, and more specifically, to a reaction method and system for reaction coupled with coke production catalytic cracking. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there is an overcapacity in oil refining, coupled with a slowdown in end-user consumption of refined oil products. This structural oversupply of refined oil products has become a pressing issue for refining companies. In the chemical feedstock market, ethylene and propylene, as basic chemical raw materials, continue to face strong demand. Ethylene and propylene consumption is increasing year by year. Taking my country as an example, it is estimated that by the end of 2023, my country's ethylene and propylene production capacity will reach approximately 44 million tons / year and 52 million tons / year, respectively, with average annual compound growth rates of 11.5% and 8.7%. Consequently, the domestic refining landscape and resource flows will undergo structural restructuring, with a slowdown in the growth rate of end-user consumption of refined oil products and a significant increase in the consumption of light chemical oils. Therefore, the transformation from refining to chemical processing has become an inevitable direction for refinery development. Catalytic cracking, as the link between refining and chemical processing, is a key technology in this transformation process.

[0003] Catalytic cracking processes typically use heavy petroleum hydrocarbons as feedstock, especially paraffin-based vacuum fractions or atmospheric residue, which offer high yields of low-carbon olefins such as propylene. With the increasing weight and quality of crude oil globally, high-quality heavy petroleum hydrocarbon resources are becoming increasingly scarce, necessitating the expansion of the feedstock adaptability of catalytic cracking technology. As refineries adjust and transform their product structures, they are also generating significant amounts of light petroleum hydrocarbons as a byproduct while improving oil quality. For a typical 10 million-ton-scale fuel oil refinery, the annual output of light petroleum hydrocarbons can reach one million tons, accounting for approximately 10% of crude oil processing. For integrated refining and chemical plants or chemical-type refineries, the increased depth of crude oil resource conversion will lead to a substantial increase in both the output and proportion of light petroleum hydrocarbons. How to efficiently utilize these light hydrocarbon resources has become a key focus of research and attention in the refining and chemical industry.

[0004] In catalytic cracking technology targeting low-carbon olefins as the main product, the cracking reaction has high conversion rates, high temperatures, and large heats of reaction. The heat required for the reaction is significantly higher than that of conventional fluidized bed catalytic regenerators or other catalytic conversion methods. The coke generated by the cracking process itself often cannot meet the heat balance requirements of the reaction-regeneration system. If the feedstock is made lighter, the problem of insufficient heat source will be exacerbated. When insufficient coke is generated during the reaction, oil slurry reprocessing or external fuel oil supplementation to the regenerator is typically used to provide the necessary heat for the reaction. However, because the oil slurry contains a large amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, it is easily adsorbed at the active sites of the catalyst, affecting the accessibility of the active sites of the feedstock molecules and thus impacting the selectivity of the catalytic reaction. Furthermore, since catalytic cracking uses molecular sieves as the active component of the catalyst, the localized high temperatures generated by the combustion of fuel oil in the regenerator cause aluminum in the molecular sieve framework to gradually detach, leading to irreversible damage to the catalyst. This does not fundamentally solve the problem of the impact of high-temperature hotspots generated by the localized combustion of externally supplemented fuel oil on the catalyst framework structure and reaction performance.

[0005] To address this issue, existing technologies all focus on the regenerator system. For example, they may introduce an oxygen-deficient zone within the regenerator, mixing fuel oil with the catalyst before coking and regenerating it; or install heaters within the regenerator and use fuel nozzles configured to inject a mixture of fuel and oxygen-containing gas to supplement combustion heat; or inject methane, relying on the heat released from methane combustion to supplement the reaction heat. While these methods mitigate the adverse effects on the catalyst, they do not fundamentally address the impact of high-temperature hotspots generated by the localized combustion of externally supplied fuel oil on the catalyst's framework structure and reaction performance, thus severely affecting reaction selectivity. Therefore, while developing light oil catalytic cracking technology to improve the selectivity of low-carbon olefins, addressing insufficient thermal balance is also a crucial technical problem that must be solved.

[0026] In one embodiment, the coke reactor is one or a combination of a bubbling fluidized bed or a turbulent fluidized bed.

[0027] This application also provides a catalytic cracking method coupled with reaction and coke formation, characterized in that the method includes:

[0028] 1) Preheated light oil is introduced from the bottom of the cracking reactor and comes into contact with the regenerated catalyst from the regenerator to carry out a catalytic cracking reaction, to obtain the first reaction oil and gas and the first spent catalyst. Part of the first spent catalyst is then transported to the coke reactor.

[0029] 2) The raw coke feedstock is introduced from the bottom of the raw coke reactor to contact a portion of the first catalyst to be produced for coking reaction, thereby obtaining the second reaction oil and gas and the second catalyst to be produced;

[0030] 3) After mixing the first and second reaction oil and gas, the mixture is introduced into a separation system to separate them, yielding dry gas, liquefied petroleum gas, cracked gasoline, and cracked heavy oil.

[0031] 4) The first and second batches of the spent catalyst are transported to the regenerator for coke burning and regeneration, and the resulting regenerated catalyst is transported to the cracking reactor for recycling.

[0032] In one embodiment, the light oil comprises gaseous hydrocarbons and light distillate oil; preferably, the light oil has properties that satisfy one, two, three, or four of the following indicators: density less than 860 kg / m³ at 20°C, carbon residue 0-0.5 wt%, total aromatics content 0%-30 wt%, and final boiling point less than 360°C.

[0033] In one embodiment, the conditions for the catalytic cracking reaction include: a reaction temperature of 510-750°C, a reaction time of 0.5-10 seconds, a catalyst-to-oil weight ratio of 10:1 to 50:1, a pre-lifting gas to feedstock weight ratio of 0.05:1 to 2.0:1, a catalyst density of 20-100 kg / m³, a linear velocity of 4-18 m / s, and a reaction pressure of 130-450 kPa.

[0035] Preferably, C4 hydrocarbons or C5-C6 light gasoline fractions are introduced downstream of the feed point of the light oil to the cracking reactor.

[0036] In one embodiment, the coke reactor is one or a combination of a bubbling fluidized bed or a turbulent fluidized bed;

[0037] Preferably, the conditions for the coking reaction include: a reaction temperature of 460-650℃, a reaction time of 1-20 seconds, a catalyst-to-oil weight ratio of 3:1 to 30:1, a pre-lifting gas to coking raw material weight ratio of 0.01:1 to 0.05:1, a linear velocity of 0.2-0.8 m / s, and a catalyst particle density of 300-700 kg / m³.

[0038] In one embodiment, the raw coke feedstock is pyrolysis heavy oil produced by the unit and secondary processed distillate oil, or a mixture thereof; preferably, the secondary processed distillate oil may be selected from one or more of catalytic cracking diesel, catalytic pyrolysis diesel, catalytic cracking slurry oil, catalytic pyrolysis slurry oil, coking gasoline, coking diesel, and coking wax oil; more preferably, the raw coke feedstock is pyrolysis heavy oil produced by the unit.

[0039] In one embodiment, the method is carried out in the catalytic cracking reaction-regeneration system described in this application.

[0040] In this application, the narrowed reaction section, especially the conical reaction section, of the cracking reactor in the system of the present invention is conducive to accelerating the exit of the reaction oil and gas from the reaction zone, shortening the reaction time, reducing catalyst backmixing, reducing the secondary conversion reaction of low-carbon olefins generated in the primary reaction, and improving the selectivity of low-carbon olefins.

[0041] In this application, by setting up a coking reactor, fuel oil can be mixed with the catalyst under low-temperature, oxygen-free fluidized bed conditions, and the coking reaction occurs in a reactor with bubbling bed or turbulent fluidized bed characteristics. This not only results in high coke selectivity but also ensures uniform distribution of coke on the catalyst, which is beneficial for uniform combustion within the regeneration system. In this application, the catalyst in the pyrolysis reactor has a low carbon content, retains high pyrolysis activity, and is at a moderate temperature, providing the most suitable reaction environment for the coking reactor.

[0042] In this application, the mixing of the first reaction oil and gas from high temperature with the second reaction oil and gas from low temperature can reduce the temperature of the reaction oil and gas entering the product separation device, making product recovery easier.

[0043] In this application, the coke generated by the raw coke reactor can be mixed with the coke generated by the reactor and enter the regeneration system. Under the action of high temperature and oxygen-enriched gas, the coke is fully burned and released heat to supply the heat required for the reaction without damaging the properties of the catalyst. This realizes the replenishment of coke source from the reaction system end and solves the heat balance problem of the catalytic cracking device.

[0044] When the method and system of this application are used in catalytic cracking reactions, the contact efficiency between the feedstock and the catalyst is high, the catalytic reaction selectivity is good, the yield of high-value-added products such as ethylene and propylene is high, and the yield of by-products such as methane is low. This helps refineries transform, develop, and extend from oil refining to the production of chemical feedstocks, solving the problem of petrochemical feedstock shortages and improving the economic efficiency of refineries.

Part of the first spent catalyst is then transported to the coke reactor.

[0059] Figure 2 A catalytic cracking reaction-regeneration system that can implement this method is shown. The catalytic cracking method of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with this catalytic cracking reaction-regeneration system.

[0060] The catalytic cracking reaction-regeneration system includes a catalytic cracking reaction system, a coking reaction system, and a regeneration system.

[0061] The catalytic cracking reaction system includes a cracking reactor 100, a first oil-to-oil separation device 201, and a first settling tank 200.

[0062] The cracking reactor 100 may be provided with a pre-lift gas inlet 101, one or more cracking feedstock inlets (e.g., a lower cracking feedstock inlet 102, a C4 hydrocarbon fraction and / or a C5-C6 light gasoline fraction inlet 105, etc.), a bottom catalyst inlet 103, and a top oil outlet 104. The oil outlet 104 of the cracking reactor is in fluid communication with the first oil separation device 201, so that the first reaction oil and gas and the first catalyst to be generated from the catalytic cracking reactor 100 are separated in the first oil separation device 201.

[0063] In one embodiment, the catalytic cracking reactor 100 comprises, from bottom to top:

[0064] Optional pre-lifting zone I,

[0065] Reaction zone II, comprising at least one diameter-reducing reaction section, wherein the diameter-reducing reaction section is a hollow cylinder with a generally circular cross-section and open at the bottom and top, and its inner diameter decreases continuously or discontinuously from bottom to top; and

[0066] Export Zone III

[0067] The optional pre-lifting zone I is connected to the bottom end of the reaction zone II, the top end of the reaction zone II is connected to the outlet zone III, and at least one raw material inlet 102 is provided on the optional pre-lifting zone and / or at the bottom of the reaction zone.

[0068] The inner diameter of the cross-section at the bottom of the reaction zone II is greater than or equal to the inner diameter of the cross-section of the optional pre-lifting zone I, and the inner diameter of the cross-section at the top is equal to or less than the inner diameter of the cross-section of the optional pre-lifting zone and the inner diameter of the cross-section of the outlet zone.

[0069] like Figure 1 As shown, the catalytic cracking reactor may include the pre-lifting zone I, which is located at the bottom of the catalytic cracking reactor and is used to pre-lift the catalyst, etc., entering the reactor. Figure 1 As shown, a catalyst inlet 103 is provided at the lower part of the pre-lifting zone I for introducing catalyst. The pre-lifting zone I can be a hollow cylindrical structure with an inner diameter to height ratio of 0.02-0.4:1 and a height to total reactor height ratio of 0.01:1 to 0.2:1, preferably 0.05:1 to 0.15:1. In one embodiment, the inner diameter of the pre-lifting zone I can be 0.2-5 meters, preferably 0.4-3 meters. In embodiments with a pre-lifting zone I, a pre-lifting medium can be introduced into the pre-lifting zone I through a pre-lifting medium pipeline 8. In embodiments with a pre-lifting zone I, at least one catalyst inlet 103 can also be provided at the bottom of the pre-lifting zone I for allowing the catalyst to enter the reactor through the pre-lifting zone I.

[0070] According to this application, the pre-lift zone I is not mandatory. For example, when the reaction zone II of the reactor of this application is used in series with other reactors, such as riser reactors, the reaction zone II can be directly connected to the outlet of the other reactor located upstream, without the need for the pre-lift zone I. In one embodiment, the catalytic cracking reactor may not include the pre-lift zone I. In this case, the bottom of the reaction zone II may be provided with at least one feed inlet 102 to facilitate the entry of raw materials into the catalytic cracking reactor. In embodiments where the pre-lift zone I is absent, the bottom of the reaction zone II may be provided with at least one catalyst inlet (not shown) to allow the catalyst to enter the reactor. Of course, the reaction zone II may also not be provided with a catalyst inlet, and the catalyst therein may be derived from the catalyst carried in the stream of other reactors. Both of these embodiments are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, the catalytic cracking reactor may include a reaction zone II. A pre-lifting zone I is connected to the bottom end 210 of the reaction zone II, and the top end 220 of the reaction zone II is connected to the outlet zone III. At least one catalyst inlet 103 and at least one feed inlet 102 are provided on the pre-lifting zone and / or at the bottom of the reaction zone. The inner diameter of the cross-section of the bottom end 210 of the reaction zone II is greater than or equal to the inner diameter of the cross-section of the pre-lifting zone I, and the inner diameter of the cross-section of the top end 220 is equal to or less than the inner diameter of the cross-section of the pre-lifting zone I and the inner diameter of the cross-section of the outlet zone III.

[0072] In the catalytic cracking reactor provided in this application, the reaction zone II is a fluidized bed, preferably a combination of one or more of a transport fluidized bed, a turbulent fluidized bed, and a fast bed.

[0073] In one embodiment, the pre-lifting zone I and the reaction zone II are connected by a first transition section I-1. The longitudinal section of the first transition section I-1 can be an isosceles trapezoid, and the outward inclination angle α of the side of the isosceles trapezoid can be 5-85°, preferably 15-75°.

[0074] like Figure 1 As shown, the raw material inlet 9 can be located at the upper part of the pre-lifting zone I, in the first transition section I-1, or at the lower part of the reaction zone II. In particular, in an embodiment where the pre-lifting zone I is absent, the lower part of the reaction zone II can be provided with a raw material inlet 102 for feeding raw materials.

[0075] In one embodiment, the ratio of the bottom cross-sectional inner diameter of the reaction zone II to the total height of the reactor is 0.01:1 to 0.5:1, preferably 0.05:1 to 0.2:1; the ratio of the total height of the reaction zone II to the total height of the reactor is 0.15:1 to 0.8:1, for example 0.2:1 to 0.75:1.

[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, the reaction zone II includes at least one diameter-reducing reaction section, which is a hollow cylinder with a generally circular cross-section and open at the bottom and top, and whose inner diameter decreases continuously or discontinuously from bottom to top.

[0077] According to this application, "diameter reduction" refers to a decrease in the inner diameter in a discontinuous manner, such as a step-like or abrupt manner, or a continuous manner. As an example of "a diameter reduction segment with a discontinuous decrease in inner diameter from bottom to top", a column composed of two or more segments with decreasing inner diameters can be cited.

[0078] As an example, the reaction zone II can be a cylindrical shape comprising one or more hollow truncated conical segments, or a cylindrical shape comprising two or more hollow cylindrical segments. According to this application, when the reaction zone comprises two or more reduced-diameter reaction segments, each reduced-diameter reaction segment can have the same or different heights; this application does not impose strict limitations on this.

[0079] In a preferred embodiment, the reaction zone II comprises a cylindrical form consisting of one or more hollow truncated conical segments and optional connecting segments for connecting adjacent hollow truncated conical segments, or a cylindrical form consisting of two or more hollow cylindrical segments and optional connecting segments for connecting adjacent hollow cylindrical segments.

[0080] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the reaction zone II includes a narrowed reaction section, which is in the shape of a hollow truncated cone with an isosceles trapezoidal longitudinal section; the inner diameter D of its apex cross-section is... 220 The height h of the diameter-reducing reaction section II The ratios are independently 0.005-0.3:1, and the inner diameter D of the bottom cross-section is... 210 The height h of the diameter-reducing reaction section II The ratios of the two sides are independently 0.015-0.25:1, and the inner diameter D of the bottom cross-section is... 210 With the inner diameter D of the top cross section 220 The ratio of each is independently greater than 1.2 and less than or equal to 10, more preferably 1.5 to 5; the diameter reduction reaction section h II The ratio of the height of the reactor to the total height h of the reactor is 0.15:1 to 0.8:1, preferably 0.2:1 to 0.75:1. In one embodiment, the inner diameter D of the bottom cross-section...210 The ratio of the height h1 of the reactor to the total height h of the reactor is 0.01:1 to 0.5:1, preferably 0.05:1 to 0.2; the ratio of the height h1 of the narrowing reaction section to the total height h of the reactor is 0.15:1 to 0.8:1, preferably 0.2:1 to 0.75:1, and the total height h of the reaction zone II is... II The ratio of the reactor's height to its total height h is 0.15:1 to 0.8:1, preferably 0.2:1 to 0.75:1. In one embodiment, the inner diameter D of the top cross-section of the narrowed reaction section 100 is... 210 The height is 0.2-5 meters, preferably 0.4-3 meters. In one embodiment, the total height h of the reaction zone II is... II It can be about 2-50 meters, preferably about 5-40 meters, and more preferably about 8-20 meters.

[0081] In the catalytic cracking reactor of this application, the large bottom space of the narrowed reaction section, especially the conical reaction section, can effectively increase the catalyst density in the reactor, thereby significantly increasing the ratio of catalyst to reactants in the reactor, enhancing the primary cracking reaction of the reactants, improving not only the reaction conversion rate but also the yield of low-carbon olefins. Moreover, the narrowed structure of the narrowed reaction section, especially the conical reaction section, facilitates the acceleration of the reaction oil and gas leaving the reaction zone, shortens the reaction time, and reduces catalyst backmixing, which helps to reduce the secondary conversion reaction of low-carbon olefins generated in the primary reaction and improves the selectivity of low-carbon olefins.

[0082] In the catalytic cracking reactor provided in this application, the reactor may be provided with one or more feed inlets, such as one, two or more feed inlets. These feed inlets may be independently located at the outlet end of the pre-lifting zone I or at the bottom of the reaction zone II. More preferably, the multiple feed inlets are independently located at the same height or different heights within the reaction zone II. Thus, feedstocks with different properties can be fed through different feed inlets.

[0083] like Figure 1 As shown, the catalytic cracking reactor may include an outlet zone III.

[0124] The pre-lift gas enters the coking reactor 300 from the bottom through the pre-lift gas inlet 301. The catalyst to be generated from the settling section 205 enters the lower part of the coking reactor 300 through the catalyst inlet 303, mixes with the pre-lift gas and moves upward. It then comes into contact with the coking feedstock from the fuel oil inlet 302 and enters the coking reactor together to undergo a coking reaction.

[0127] Example

[0128] The following examples will further illustrate this application, but do not limit it. The catalyst used in the experiment was an industrial catalyst, commercially known as NCC. The feedstock for the cracking reaction was Yanshan straight-run naphtha, taken from the atmospheric and vacuum distillation unit of Yanshan Petrochemical. The raw coke feedstock was Anqing oil slurry, taken from the catalytic cracking unit of Anqing Petrochemical. The properties of the two feedstocks are shown in Table 1.

[0129] Example 1

[0130] exist Figure 2 The system was tested, and the structure of the catalytic cracking reactor used was as follows:

[0131] The reactor has a total height of 10 meters, including a pre-lifting zone of 2 meters and an inner diameter of 0.2 meters; a reaction zone of 5 meters with an inner diameter of 0.2 meters at the top and 0.3 meters at the bottom; and an outlet zone of 3 meters with an inner diameter of 0.2 meters.

[0132] The structure of the coke reactor is as follows:

[0133] The coke reactor is a riser reactor with a total height of 5 meters and an inner diameter of 0.4 meters.

[0134] A cracking experiment of straight-run naphtha was conducted in a catalytic cracking reactor. Preheated feedstock was introduced from the bottom of the reactor and contacted with regenerated catalyst from the regenerator. The catalytic cracking reaction proceeded from bottom to top, yielding an oil-catalyst mixture of reaction products and the spent catalyst. This mixture entered a cyclone separator from the reactor outlet, where the reaction products and spent catalyst were rapidly separated. The reaction products were collected after cooling. The spent catalyst entered a stripping section under gravity, where adsorbed hydrocarbon products were stripped from the catalyst by steam. A portion of the stripped catalyst entered a coking reactor for coking, while the remaining catalyst directly entered the regenerator for regeneration. The proportion of spent catalyst entering the coking reactor was 14%, based on the total weight of all spent catalyst.

[0135] Anqing oil slurry is fed into the coking reactor, where it contacts the catalyst to be recycled and undergoes a coking reaction, yielding a mixture of reaction products and carbonized catalyst. This mixture exits the coking reactor into a cyclone separator, where the reaction products and carbonized catalyst are rapidly separated. The reaction products are then collected after cooling. The carbonized catalyst, under gravity, enters the stripping section, where steam strips the adsorbed hydrocarbon products from the catalyst. The stripped catalyst then enters the regenerator.

[0136] Part of the spent catalyst from the catalytic cracking reactor and the charred catalyst from the coke reactor enter the regenerator and are regenerated by contact with air. The regenerated catalyst is then returned to the catalytic cracking reactor for recycling. Operating conditions and product distribution are listed in Table 2.

[0137] As can be seen from the results in Table 2, the methane yield was 9.78%, the ethylene yield was 25.07 wt%, the propylene yield was 25.12 wt%, the coke yield was 6.40%, the total selectivity for ethylene and propylene was 57.56%, and the methane selectivity was 11.22%.

[0138] Comparative Example 1

[0139] According to similar Figure 2 The system was tested in accordance with Example 1, except that Comparative Example 1 did not include a coking reaction system, and the catalytic cracking reaction system was directly connected to the regenerator, i.e., the catalyst was regenerated as follows:

[0140] The spent catalyst enters the stripping section of the settler under gravity, where water vapor strips the hydrocarbon products adsorbed on the catalyst. The stripped catalyst then enters the regenerator for regeneration through contact with air. The regenerated catalyst is then returned to the catalytic cracking reactor for recycling. Operating conditions and product distribution are listed in Table 2.

[0141] The results in Table 2 show that the methane yield was 10.11%, the ethylene yield was 24.15 wt%, the propylene yield was 24.22 wt%, the coke yield was 3.69%, the total selectivity for ethylene and propylene was 57.49%, and the methane selectivity was 12.02%. The coke yield in this comparative example was low, indicating insufficient coking, which was insufficient to maintain the thermal equilibrium of the reaction.

[0142] As can be seen from the results of the above embodiments, the catalytic cracking reaction system of this application can not only reduce the methane yield and improve the selectivity of ethylene and propylene, but also generate coke with high selectivity, providing a heat source for the regenerator from the perspective of the reaction system, without affecting the regeneration system.
