Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of desulfurization adsorbents, and in particular to an adsorbent for removing organic sulfides, a preparation method thereof, and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Petrochemical products, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), natural gas, gasoline, and diesel, contain a wide variety of organic sulfides, including polysulfides such as mercaptans, sulfides, carbonyl sulfide, and thiophene. Upon combustion, these organic sulfides form SO₂ and SO₃, which then combine with atmospheric water to form acid mist or acid rain, severely impacting the ecological environment and people's daily lives. Furthermore, demands for the quality of petroleum products are becoming increasingly stringent, and sulfides in fossil fuels can deactivate catalysts such as precious metals commonly used in chemical processes. Therefore, it is necessary to deeply remove organic sulfides from petroleum products to obtain higher-purity and higher-quality petroleum products.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used desulfurization methods are divided into two categories: wet desulfurization and dry desulfurization. Compared with wet desulfurization, dry desulfurization is mainly suitable for the deep removal of chemically stable organic sulfur. In addition to the advantages of low operating costs and simple process flow, its most prominent advantage is high desulfurization accuracy. Currently, the commonly used dry desulfurization methods mainly include hydrodesulfurization, oxidative desulfurization, and adsorption desulfurization. Among them, adsorption desulfurization fixes the sulfur element of organic sulfide in the adsorbent through the appropriate pore structure of the adsorbent and the interaction between the active metal in the adsorbent and the organic sulfur. This method has the advantages of simple operation, low operating cost and high adsorption capacity. No H2S is generated during the reaction to form secondary pollution, and it can achieve efficient and deep removal of organic sulfide.
[0004] Currently, the commonly used adsorption desulfurization adsorbents mainly include activated carbon adsorbents, copper-based adsorbents, nickel-based adsorbents and molecular sieve adsorbents. The details are as follows:
[0005] Activated carbon adsorbents are widely used for flue gas and liquefied petroleum gas desulfurization. Chinese patents CN96118013.7 and CN98113750.4 both use activated carbon as a carrier and prepare desulfurizers through an alkali solution impregnation method. While these desulfurizers have achieved some success in desulfurization, particularly in removing organic sulfur, they exhibit relatively low sulfur capacity and rapid degradation. Chinese patent CN00114588.6 discloses a desulfurizer prepared through an impregnation method using activated carbon as a carrier. Water-soluble compounds of sodium, copper, and silicon are added to the activated carbon before forming to enhance its desulfurization performance. Chinese patent CN200410042864.6 discloses a desulfurizer prepared by extruding an alkali metal compound or alkaline earth metal compound into strips after mixing with activated carbon powder. This desulfurizer suffers from the disadvantage of being fragile during use and potentially clogging the adsorbent bed.
[0006] Copper-based adsorbents are primarily copper-zinc-aluminum composite oxides, with copper oxide and zinc oxide as active components and aluminum oxide as a carrier. These adsorbents are simple to prepare, have high mechanical strength, and offer high desulfurization accuracy. However, they suffer from low active component utilization, performance that is affected by various factors, and non-renewability. Chinese patent CN112138625A discloses an adsorption desulfurizer for ultra-deep removal of thiophene from coke oven gas and its preparation method. This adsorption desulfurizer incorporates an Al2O3 carrier and NiO and ZrO2 additives into a Cu / ZnO composite to enhance its mechanical strength and increase its pore structure. The synergistic effect of the metal additives on copper and zinc increases the surface area of the adsorption desulfurizer, enhancing its activity and further improving its desulfurization efficiency. Chinese patent CN104707565A discloses an ultra-deep desulfurization and olefin reduction adsorbent for gasoline, as well as its preparation method and application. It is prepared by co-precipitation reaction of transition metal salt, metal salt and precipitant, and evenly mixed with modified molecular sieve and adhesive, and extruded into strips by adding peptizing agent, and dried and roasted to obtain a desulfurization adsorbent. This adsorbent can remove most sulfides, but the preparation process is complicated and the cost is high. The adsorbent contains a large amount of heavy metal elements, which is easy to pollute the environment. Chinese patent CN115254006A discloses a desulfurization adsorbent for ultra-deep thiophene removal from coke oven gas and its preparation method. It uses copper oxide and zinc oxide as active components. By regulating the content of the carrier and the metal additive, the active component utilization rate and desulfurization performance of the desulfurization adsorbent are improved.
[0007] Nickel-based adsorbents are primarily prepared by mixing the active components nickel oxide, zinc oxide, and a silicon-aluminum composite support. They exhibit high reactivity and excellent desulfurization performance, but their service life is significantly affected by reaction temperature, water vapor fluctuations, and carbon deposition. Chinese patent CN115646433A discloses a nickel sulfate-loaded gasoline and diesel desulfurization adsorbent and its preparation method. The nickel sulfate is loaded onto a ZnO-Al2O3-SiO2 support via an impregnation method, followed by drying and calcination to produce the desulfurization adsorbent. This invention exhibits excellent adsorption desulfurization activity and stability when treating simulated gasoline and diesel feeds, demonstrating unique product selectivity. Chinese patent CN111195520A discloses a highly dispersed adsorption desulfurization catalyst, its preparation, and application. The catalyst is composed of at least one +2-valent metal oxide, one +3-valent metal oxide, one Group IIA metal oxide, at least one Group IVB metal oxide, and at least one Group VIII metal oxide. The resulting catalyst exhibits high dispersion of active components, resulting in enhanced desulfurization activity and adsorbed sulfur capacity.
[0008] Molecular sieve adsorbents have attracted widespread attention in the field of adsorption desulfurization due to their advantages, including suitable pore structure, large specific surface area, good thermal stability, excellent ion exchangeability, and suitable surface acidity. Chinese patent CN114433003A discloses a desulfurization adsorbent, its preparation method, and application. The desulfurization adsorbent is a highly dispersed ruthenium oxide on a composite carrier of 13X molecular sieve and aluminum oxide, resulting in an adsorbent with high adsorption capacity and deep desulfurization. Chinese patent CN1330126A discloses a method for removing organic sulfur from liquefied gas. Specifically, it uses high-valent metal cations to modify X or Y molecular sieves. The resulting desulfurizer is regenerable and has a long service life. However, the adsorbent requires a high metal content and is subject to harsh operating conditions.
[0009] In summary, existing organic sulfide adsorbents suffer from low sulfur capacity, low desulfurization accuracy, demanding desulfurization conditions, short service life, and the inability to simultaneously remove large organic sulfur molecules and COS. To address these issues, the present invention provides an adsorbent for deep removal of organic sulfides and a method for preparing the same. Summary of the Invention

[0115] Test Case
[0116] The adsorbents for removing organic sulfides obtained in Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were tested.
[0117] 1) The desulfurization adsorbents of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to adsorption desulfurization performance tests and pore structure characterization tests on a micro-evaluation device. The test conditions were normal temperature, normal pressure, and a space velocity of 200-300 h. -1 The desulfurizer loading is 1 kg, and the raw material is a type of natural gas from a chemical plant, with a sulfur content of 20 mg / m 3 , of which H2S is 1mg / m 3 The remaining sulfur was organic sulfur. The type and content of the sulfide at the outlet were determined by thermal desorption concentration and gas chromatography FPD detection. The adsorption reaction process was stopped when the total sulfur content at the outlet exceeded 10 ppb. This was considered a test cycle. The test results are listed in Tables 1 and 2 below.
[0118] 2) After the adsorbent of Example 1 was evaluated according to the adsorption desulfurization performance test evaluation method in the above 1), the adsorbent was taken out and calcined in a muffle furnace at 550°C for 2 hours and then regenerated. The regenerated sample was re-evaluated according to the evaluation method of Example 6; the above regeneration-evaluation experiment was repeated, and the evaluation results were as follows: Figure 2 shown.
[0119] 3) The desulfurization adsorbents of Example 1 and Comparative Example 4 were tested for adsorption desulfurization performance on a micro-evaluation device. The test conditions were normal temperature, normal pressure, and a space velocity of 200-300 h. -1The desulfurizer loading was 1 kg, and the feedstock was Class I natural gas mixed with 0.1% water vapor. The outlet sulfur compound type and content were determined by thermal desorption concentration and gas chromatography using an FPD detector. The adsorption reaction was terminated when the outlet total sulfur content exceeded 10 ppb. This constituted one test cycle. The results are listed in Table 3 below.
[0120] 4) The desulfurization adsorbents of Example 1 and Comparative Example 5 were tested for adsorption desulfurization performance on a micro-evaluation device. The test conditions were 200°C, atmospheric pressure, and a space velocity of 200-300 hours. -1 The desulfurizer loading was 1 kg, and the raw material was Class I natural gas from a chemical plant. The type and content of sulfides at the outlet were determined by thermal desorption concentration and gas chromatography using an FPD detector. The adsorption reaction was terminated when the total sulfur content at the outlet exceeded 10 ppb. This constituted one test cycle. The results are listed in Table 4 below.
[0121] The test results are as follows:
[0122] Table 1 Comparison of pore structures of desulfurization adsorbents of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3
[0123]
[0124] Table 2 Comparison of desulfurization adsorbents of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3
[0125]
[0126] From the comparative data of Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that compared with Comparative Examples 1-2, Examples 1-5 all contain large pores of 0.3cc / g, which promote the rapid internal diffusion. At the same time, due to the high-capacity adsorption of alkali, the desulfurization efficiency is high and the sulfur capacity is large; compared with Comparative Example 3, Examples 1-5 all co-modify the molecular sieve, and the sulfur capacity is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3.
[0127] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen from the results that the sample of the embodiment of the present invention still has good desulfurization performance after multiple regenerations.
[0128] Table 3 Comparison of desulfurization adsorbents of Example 1 and Comparative Example 4
[0129]
[0130] As can be seen from Table 3, Example 1 uses high-silicon molecular sieve, the hydrophobicity of the adsorbent is enhanced, and the competitive adsorption of water is significantly reduced. Even when the water content of the raw material is high, the sulfur adsorption capacity is still greater than 1%. However, Comparative Example 4 reduces the sulfur capacity by 80% due to the preferential adsorption of water.
[0131] Table 4 Comparison of desulfurization adsorbents of Example 1 and Comparative Example 5
[0132]
[0133] As can be seen from Table 4, Example 1 uses Ag and Ce to co-modify the molecular sieve and can still achieve deep adsorption of sulfur when used under high temperature conditions, while Comparative Example 5 has a significantly reduced sulfur capacity when used under high temperature conditions.
