Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of petroleum refining, and relates to a method for hydrotreating coker gasoline and diesel. Background Art

[0002] In today's world, the demand for clean oil products is increasing continuously, but the growth rate of crude oil production is slow and the crude oil is becoming increasingly heavy, and at the same time, the product quality requirements are becoming more and more stringent. In order to make better use of petroleum resources, higher requirements are also put forward for the secondary processing capacity of crude oil in petroleum refining enterprises. The secondary processing units of petroleum refining enterprises mainly include coking, fluid catalytic cracking, hydrogenation and catalytic reforming units, etc. In particular, delayed coking has become an important means for heavy oil conversion.

[0003] Delayed coking is one of the important means for refining enterprises to process inferior heavy oil, but the products obtained therefrom need to be further purified to remove impurities. In particular, coker gasoline contains high contents of impurities such as sulfur and olefins, and has poor stability, and is not suitable as vehicle gasoline. However, coker naphtha can be used as a raw material for units such as ethylene cracking, fertilizer and reforming after hydrotreating. Since coker naphtha itself contains high contents of impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, olefins and gum, in order to be used as a raw material for units such as ethylene cracking, fertilizer and reforming, it must first be hydrofined. Coker diesel also contains high contents of impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen and olefins. Coker diesel can be used to produce vehicle diesel after hydrofining according to its product characteristics. The article "Research on Producing Jet Fuel by Hydrotreating Coker Gasoline and Diesel" on pages 173-176 of the 3rd issue of Petrochemical Technology & Application in 2004 introduced that coker gasoline and diesel were mixed for deep hydrofining and then gasoline, kerosene and diesel were fractionated out. This method only deeply refined the whole coker fraction and then separated the kerosene fraction therefrom, resulting in over-hydrogenation. The article "Hydrofining Coker Gasoline and Diesel under Low Pressure with FH-5 Catalyst" published by Sun Guang on pages 39-42 of the 5th issue of Petroleum Refinery Engineering in 1994 used a set of hydrofining devices to hydrofine coker gasoline and coker diesel. Specifically, a switching feeding method was adopted, that is, after processing a batch of coker gasoline, the raw material was switched to coker diesel. This method is only applicable to small-scale coking units. During the production process, it is necessary to continuously switch, and the operating conditions need to be frequently changed, which brings inconvenience to the operation and has a great impact on the performance of the catalyst.

[0004] CN101003751A discloses a processing method for coking whole-fraction oil, comprising: separating coking whole-fraction oil into coking light-fraction oil and coking heavy-fraction oil, wherein the light-fraction oil contains part of the light diesel fraction, and the heavy-fraction oil is a heavy diesel fraction with a higher final boiling point. The coking heavy-fraction oil is subjected to hydrocracking, and the cracking products are mixed with the coking light-fraction oil and then subjected to hydrofining treatment. CN111321005A discloses a hydroprocessing method for producing diesel with low energy consumption and long cycle. First, the diesel raw material is fractionated into a light fraction and a heavy fraction, the heavy fraction is subjected to hydrodesulfurization reaction in a first reaction zone, and then reacts with the light-fraction diesel raw material oil in a second hydroprocessing reaction zone under the action of a hydrodesulfurization catalyst. CN200410050729.6 discloses a hydrotreating method for diesel fraction. First, the raw material oil is fractionated into a light fraction and a heavy fraction, the light fraction is sent to a first reaction zone and contacted with a hydrofining catalyst, the heavy fraction is sent to a second reaction zone and contacted with a hydrofining catalyst, and the liquid-phase products of the two reaction zones are mixed to form a refined fraction oil. The raw material of this process needs to be fractionated into light and heavy components, and the process is relatively complex.

[0005] The processes selected in the above patents are all conventional gas-phase circulating trickle-bed hydroprocessing processes. However, they all have problems such as excessive hydrodesulfurization reaction, which is likely to cause over-quality of products, reduction of liquid yield, and excessive hydrogen consumption and energy consumption.

[0038] Through the above technical solution, the method for hydrogenating coking gasoline and diesel of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0039] 1. The coking gasoline and diesel hydrogenation process method provided by the present invention divides the feedstock oil into light and heavy fractions, optimizes the catalyst grading according to different reaction requirements, deeply couples the reaction fractions, reaction sequence, reaction pressure, hydrogen sulfide concentration and various reactions, controls the reaction depth, balances the reaction heat, maximally exerts the efficiency of the catalyst in the reaction, avoids passive desulfurization of the gasoline fraction, and achieves the purpose of controllable reaction.

[0040] 2. In the present invention, the heavy fraction first enters the first reaction zone for hydrofining desulfurization reaction, avoiding the strong exotherm of a large amount of olefins in the light fraction, controlling the reaction temperature rise, and avoiding the situation where the high point temperature of the reaction is too high. At the same time, the product of the first reaction zone is used as a heat-carrying medium to be mixed with the light fraction and enter the second reaction zone, increasing the heat capacity, and avoiding the excessive passive rise of the temperature after the strong exothermic reaction of the light component olefins. The effluent from the first reaction zone is mixed with the light fraction, which can further reduce the reaction temperature, achieve a low reaction temperature matching, and the reaction process is a gentle reaction, which can better reduce the thermal cracking caused by too high temperature and reduce the influence on the yield of the target product.

[0041] 3. In the present invention, a first hydrogenation catalyst and a low-temperature second hydrogenation catalyst are respectively arranged in the first and second reaction zones, and the corresponding reaction temperature and reaction pressure are adjusted, which well exerts the high-temperature hydrodesulfurization, low-temperature hydrodesulfurization alcohol activity and olefin removal performance of the catalyst. Furthermore, by performing a pressure reduction operation in the second reaction zone, it is possible to avoid the passive excessive desulfurization of sulfur in the gasoline fraction in the conventional coking gasoline and diesel hydrogenation process to ensure ultra-deep removal of thiophene sulfur. This can reduce the sulfur injection amount of the downstream ethylene plant, reduce the operating cost, and while increasing the total liquid yield, increase the yield of gasoline components.

[0042] 4. In the present invention, the heavy fraction enters the first reaction zone and undergoes a deep desulfurization reaction with high-purity hydrogen under the action of a catalyst, avoiding the influence of excessive hydrogen sulfide concentration on the reaction, obtaining high-quality diesel components, regulating the hydrogen sulfide concentration in the product of the first reaction zone, and then mixing and hydrogenating with the light fraction, which can achieve the purpose of inhibiting the desulfurization depth, reducing the sulfur removal rate of the gasoline fraction that is too high, reducing the sulfur injection amount of the downstream ethylene plant, and realizing the reduction of the operation cost of the ethylene plant.

[0043] 5. The method provided by the present invention gradually controls the reaction heat release, effectively matches the heat capacity and reaction heat balance, effectively controls the reaction temperature rise, reduces the probability of thermal cracking, ensures high liquid yield, and can operate under reduced pressure in the second reactor, reducing the operation safety risk of the device, and at the same time reducing the hydrogen consumption and energy consumption of the device.

[0044] 6. The method provided by the present invention controls the reaction process, controls the desulfurization depth, reduces the high point temperature of the reaction, and reduces the reaction hydrogen consumption and the energy consumption of the device.

[0045] 7. As the reaction device used in the method of the present invention, an existing coking gasoline and diesel hydrogenation or other similar hydrogenation devices can be used for minor modifications, reducing the transformation cost. At the same time, the operation steps change little, also reducing the operation risk.

[0046] 8. The coking gasoline and diesel hydrogenation process of the present invention has a simple process, convenient operation, good safety, environmental friendliness, high product added value, and a long operation cycle. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0067] According to the present invention, in step (2), the first hydrogenation catalyst can be selected as a suitable commercial catalyst according to the needs of the process flow, can also be prepared by a conventional method, or can be a regenerated catalyst after the deactivated catalyst is regenerated. The first hydrogenation catalyst includes a first carrier and a first hydrogenation active component supported on the first carrier. The first hydrogenation active component can be W-Ni, Mo-Ni, or W-Mo-Ni. The first carrier is generally a refractory porous oxide, such as alumina, silica, amorphous silica-alumina, titanium oxide, and their composite oxides or mixed oxide carriers, etc. Among them, materials without acidity or with weak acidity are generally used as the carrier. Preferably, based on the weight of the first hydrogenation catalyst, the content of the first hydrogenation active component in terms of oxide is 15 - 50 wt%, preferably 18 - 45 wt%, and the content of nickel oxide is 2 - 8 wt%, preferably 2.3 - 6 wt%.

Downstream ethylene cracking units need to inject sulfur-containing media (such as dimethyl sulfide (DMDS)) when using raw materials such as hydrotreated naphtha, hydrocracked light naphtha, hydrocracked oil, and ethane.
