Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to catalytic coke cleaning in the field of petrochemical industry, and specifically to a method for catalytic coke cleaning using a perovskite oxide of a MOFs precursor. Background Art

[0002] Ethylene is the most important raw material in industrial production, the basis for the production of organic and three major synthetic materials, and also the most important monomer in the petrochemical industry. Therefore, the production of ethylene is the most important link in the petrochemical industry, which not only relates to the efficiency of the petrochemical industry but also represents the development level of a country's chemical industry.

[0003] The common method for producing ethylene is the steam cracking process, with raw materials mainly being naphtha, light diesel, etc. Dehydrogenation or chain-breaking reactions occur in the pyrolysis furnace tubes under high-temperature conditions, and are further converted into products such as ethylene, propylene, and fuel gas. During this process, the process in which coke formed by the cracking of hydrocarbon raw materials accumulates in the furnace tubes is called coking. With the formation of coke, it will lead to a reduction in the cross-sectional area of the ethylene cracking furnace, an increase in the thermal resistance of the furnace tubes, and a decrease in the heat transfer coefficient. At the same pyrolysis furnace tube outlet temperature, a higher wall temperature will be required, the fuel consumption will increase, and phenomena such as furnace tube carburization and local overheating will occur, seriously shortening the service life of the furnace tubes and thus affecting the long-term stable operation of ethylene production.

[0004] The ethylene cracking process is always accompanied by coking and coke cleaning. How to effectively achieve in-situ conversion of coke, and by regulating the reaction between coke and water vapor, catalytically convert coke into carbon oxides and hydrogen is the focus of research. Catalytic conversion does not require air, is convenient to switch, and has simple operation. When reacting with water vapor alone, the coke conversion rate is relatively low, and developing an efficient catalyst is very important for improving coke conversion.

[0005] K2CO3 can be used for catalytic coke cleaning, which improves the coke conversion rate. However, under high-temperature steam cracking, potassium ions are prone to volatilization, causing corrosion of the furnace tubes. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a catalyst with better high-temperature stability.

[0006] It is relatively difficult to remove the coke generated during the ethylene cracking process, and it is necessary to shut down for operation, and the energy consumption during the coke burning process is relatively high. Therefore, in response to the need for coke removal during the ethylene cracking process, the present invention proposes a method for in-situ catalytic coke cleaning using a perovskite oxide of a MOFs precursor, which is of great significance for improving the ethylene production cycle. Summary of the Invention

[0013] In Step 1 of the above solution, the concentrations of the alkaline earth metal nitrate A, rare earth metal nitrate R, and transition metal potassium cyanide T solutions are 2.5 mmol / L - 12.5 mmol / L, the mass fraction of ethanol in the solution is 33wt.% - 67wt.%, the pH value of the solution is adjusted to 6 - 9, and aging is carried out at room temperature for 6h - 36h.

[0014] In the above solution, the calcination conditions are as follows: in an air atmosphere, the heating rate is 0.5°C / min - 10°C / min, the calcination temperature is 500°C - 700°C, and the calcination time is 0.5 h - 6h.

[0015] In Step 3 of the above solution, the steam partial pressure is 1.0×10 4 Pa - 4.0×10 4Pa, the mass flow rate of water vapor is 0.025 g / min - 0.267 g / min; the reaction temperature is 700 °C - 1000 °C, and the reaction time is 40 min - 160 min.

[0016] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

The present invention utilizes MOFs precursors to prepare perovskite oxides for catalyzing the reaction of coke with water vapor, realizing the efficient conversion of coke, solving the bottleneck problems of easy coking and difficult removal in the current ethylene cracking process, and is of great significance for improving the ethylene production cycle.

[0018] 2. The perovskite oxides prepared by the present invention have good high-temperature stability and high purity; the morphology, specific surface area, and pore structure can be regulated.
