Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of petrochemical technology, and specifically to a method and apparatus for producing bright oil. Background Technology

[0002] Bright stock is a high-viscosity lubricating oil base oil used under high-temperature or heavy-load conditions. It adjusts the high-temperature viscosity of lubricating oil products and is widely used in industrial oils (such as gear oils, hydraulic oils, and greases) and heavy internal combustion engine oils (such as marine engine oils). As a heavy base oil, bright stock not only requires high viscosity but also a high viscosity index, good oxidation stability, and low-temperature fluidity. With the upgrading of global lubricating oil product quality, the demand structure of base oils has changed significantly. The proportion of Group I base oils has gradually decreased, but high-viscosity heavy Group I base oils still have a large market. According to incomplete statistics, the domestic demand for bright stock is approximately 400,000 tons per year, and the annual import of bright stock is approximately 200,000 tons, mainly high-viscosity 150BS products.

[0003] To meet the viscosity and viscosity index requirements of bright oil, its raw material is crude oil vacuum residue. The production processes mainly include conventional processes, all-hydrogen processes, and a combination of conventional and hydrotreating processes. The conventional process uses a solvent deasphalting-solvent refining-solvent dewaxing route, but the product yield is low and the heteroatom content is high. CN104449841A discloses a method for producing low-pour-point, high-viscosity bright oil using an all-hydrogen process. This method uses naphthenic light deasphalting oil as raw material and employs a hydrotreating pre-refining-isomer dewaxing-hydrotreating supplementary refining process to convert long-chain cycloalkanes in the raw material into low-pour-point isomeric alkanes, achieving a higher bright oil yield, but it requires naphthenic crude oil. CN101768470A discloses a method for preparing bright oil, using vacuum residue as raw material and employing a combined process of solvent deasphalting-solvent refining-hydrotreating-solvent dewaxing. This process has strong applicability to raw materials and produces products with kinematic viscosity meeting requirements and high viscosity index with low pour point. However, the process flow is relatively long, and the overall product yield is low. CN110607191A discloses a combined process of vacuum residue hydrotreating and bright oil production. This process first hydrotreats the vacuum residue, and then uses the tail oil from the hydrogenated vacuum residue as raw material to produce bright oil using traditional processes. This can significantly improve the product yield, but it requires a vacuum residue hydrotreating process.

[0004] With the decreasing availability of high-quality crude oil resources and the diversification of crude oil sources, the availability of high-quality resources for producing high viscosity index bright oils is dwindling. This leads to variations in the viscosity, viscosity index, and oxidation stability of bright oil products, causing fluctuations in product quality and making it difficult to produce high-quality bright oil products that combine both high viscosity and high viscosity index. Although bright oil substitutes such as polyisobutylene (PIB) and polyalphaolefin (PAO) can meet the viscosity and viscosity index requirements, their high price and poor compatibility with additives make it difficult to replace traditional bright oils on a large scale.

[0005] In the petroleum refining industry, crude oil undergoes catalytic cracking to produce a large amount of heavy distillate oil rich in aromatics. Catalytic cracking slurry, a low-value byproduct of refineries, is rich in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and is often used as a raw material for carbon materials or, after hydrotreating, to produce specialty oil products such as rubber-filled oil. CN113122324A discloses a method for producing specialty oil products using catalytic cracking slurry as a raw material. The catalytic slurry is first refined by solvent, and the residual oil is contacted with hydrogen and a hydrotreating agent for a hydrotreating reaction. The diesel fraction obtained after hydrotreating is then dewaxing and hydrorefined to produce aviation kerosene and transformer oil base oil products, improving the economic efficiency of the catalytic slurry. CN104593067A discloses a method for producing white rubber oil by hydrotreating catalytic cracking slurry. The light fraction obtained from the fractionation of the catalytic slurry is hydrotreated, hydrorefined, and further hydrotreated to produce rubber-filled base oil. Hydrotreated catalytic cracking slurry is rich in cycloalkanes, and its structural characteristics are similar to those of cycloalkyl crude oil. However, the viscosity and viscosity index of hydrotreated catalytic cracking slurry are low, which cannot meet the requirements for bright oil properties. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The following provides a detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative and explanatory purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0022] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for producing gloss varnish, comprising:

[0023] (1) In the presence of hydrogen, heavy distillate oil is contacted with a hydrogenation catalyst and hydrogenation reaction is carried out under hydrogenation treatment conditions to obtain hydrogenation products;

[0024] (2) In the presence of a strong acid catalyst, the aromatics in the hydrogenation product and the C10~C20 olefins in the olefin oil undergo an alkylation reaction under alkylation reaction conditions to obtain an alkylated product;

[0028] In the method provided by the present invention, the hydrogenation catalyst is a supported catalyst, comprising a support and an active component supported on the support, wherein the support is selected from alumina and / or silica, and the active component is selected from nickel and / or cobalt, and molybdenum and / or tungsten;

[0029] Preferably, the nickel and / or cobalt content is 0.5-8 wt%, more preferably 1-5 wt%, based on the total weight of the hydrogenation catalyst and calculated as metal oxides; the molybdenum and / or tungsten content is 5-35 wt%, more preferably 10-30 wt%.

[0030] In the method provided by this invention, the hydrogenation treatment conditions in step (1) include: a temperature of 290-380℃, preferably 320-360℃; a pressure of 8-18 MPa, preferably 10-16 MPa; and a volume hourly space velocity of 0.3-3 h⁻¹. -1 Preferably, the time is 0.5-1.5 h. -1 The hydrogen-to-oil volume ratio is 500-2000:1, preferably 1000-1500:1.

[0031] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, the pressure refers to gauge pressure.

[0032] In the method provided by the present invention, in order to obtain high-quality bright oil, it is preferable to control the conditions of the hydrogenation reaction to obtain a suitable hydrogenation product. Preferably, the aromatic content of the hydrogenation product is controlled to be 50-90 wt%, more preferably 60-80 wt%. Preferably, the refractive index of the hydrogenation product at 20°C is 1.50-1.52.

[0033] In the method provided by this invention, the strong acid catalyst is selected from strong acids with an acidity coefficient less than 0;

[0034] Preferably, the strong acid catalyst is selected from super-strong liquid acids with an acidity coefficient of less than -5;

[0035] Preferably, the strong acid catalyst is selected from at least one of concentrated sulfuric acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, fluorosulfonic acid, perchloric acid and hydrobromic acid; more preferably concentrated sulfuric acid and / or trifluoromethanesulfonic acid.

[0036] In step (2), the weight ratio of the hydrogenation product to the olefin is 1:0.3-5, preferably 1:1-5; the weight ratio of the strong acid catalyst to the olefin is 0.01-0.5:1, preferably 0.3-0.5:1; the olefin oil contains 50-100 wt% olefins, preferably 70-100 wt%; the olefins are α-olefins, internal olefins, or dienes; C10-C20 olefins are preferably C12-C16 α-olefins, internal olefins, or dienes.

[0037] In step (2), the alkylation reaction conditions are: temperature of 0-60℃ and reaction time of 5-300 min; preferably, temperature of 20-55℃ and reaction time of 20-90 min.

[0038] In step (3), the heavy fraction obtained by distillation of the alkylation product is used as a bright oil product, with a cut point of 500°C or any temperature greater than 500°C, preferably 520°C.

[0039] The method provided by this invention uses heavy distillate oil rich in aromatics as raw material, and uses hydrogenation treatment to saturate polycyclic aromatics into oligocyclic aromatic components with cycloalkane rings, which have both aromatic ring structure and cycloalkane ring structure; the hydrogenation product increases the alkyl long side chain through alkylation reaction with olefins, thereby increasing the product viscosity and viscosity index, and thus the low-value heavy distillate oil is converted into a high-viscosity and high-viscosity index bright oil product.

[0040] In the method provided by this invention, the boiling range of the heavy distillate oil is 300-540℃, meaning that the boiling range of the heavy distillate oil falls within the range of 300-540℃. For example, the boiling range can be any two values ​​from 300℃, 350℃, 400℃, 420℃, 440℃, 460℃, 500℃, 520℃, and 540℃. When the boiling range of the heavy distillate oil is below 350℃, the viscosity of the feedstock is too low, and after hydrotreating and alkylation, it cannot meet the high viscosity requirements of bright oil. When the boiling range of the heavy distillate oil is above 540℃, the content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is too high, and after hydrotreating and alkylation, the viscosity index of the bright oil product is difficult to meet the requirements.

[0041] The source of the aromatic heavy distillate oil can be selected from one or a mixture of several of the following: catalytic cracking slurry oil, catalytic cracking cycle oil, and coal tar middle distillate, preferably the middle distillate section of catalytic cracking slurry oil.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, catalytic cracking slurry is used as feedstock, and a middle fraction with a distillation range of 350°C to 540°C, preferably 400°C to 520°C, is fractionated and used as feedstock for hydrotreating. Typically, the aromatic hydrocarbon content in the catalytic cracking slurry is 50-90 wt%, preferably 70-85 wt%; the kinematic viscosity of the catalytic cracking slurry at 100°C is ≤16 mm. 2 / s, preferably 10-15mm 2 / s. The aromatic content of the middle distillate is 60-90 wt%, preferably 70-85 wt%.

[0043] Unless otherwise specified, kinematic viscosity parameters are measured using GB / T 265 (Determination of kinematic viscosity and calculation of dynamic viscosity of petroleum products); aromatic content parameters are measured using SH / T 0659 (Determination of hydrocarbons in saturated hydrocarbon fractions of gas oil).

[0044] In this invention, to further ensure the long-term safe operation of the process unit, it is necessary to perform a solidification treatment on the catalytic cracking slurry. Solid powder in the catalytic cracking slurry can cause erosion and wear damage to the unit's pumps and control valves, necessitating control of the solid content. Preferably, the method further includes: performing a solidification treatment on the catalytic cracking slurry before the first distillation.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present invention, preferably, the solid content in the catalytic cracking slurry after the desolidification treatment is ≤0.2wt%, more preferably 0.02-0.1wt%. The solid content refers to the total amount of catalyst powder and other solid substances insoluble in xylene; the solid content parameter is measured using Q / SH 0742-2018.

[0046] In the method provided by this invention, the type of hydrogenation catalyst is not limited. The hydrogenation catalyst is a supported catalyst, comprising a support and an active component supported on the support. A wide range of types of support and active component are available, all being conventional supported catalyst supports and active components in the art. Preferably, the hydrogenation catalyst is selected from alumina and / or silica, and the active components are each independently selected from nickel and / or cobalt, and molybdenum and / or tungsten.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present invention, preferably, the hydrogenation catalyst contains, based on the total weight of the hydrogenation catalyst and calculated as metal oxides, 0.1-10 wt% nickel and / or cobalt, preferably 0.5-8 wt%, more preferably 1-5 wt%; and 5-35 wt% molybdenum and / or tungsten, preferably 10-30 wt%.

[0048] In this invention, the purpose of the hydrotreating is to hydrogenate and saturate the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the heavy distillate oil into oligocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons containing cycloalkane rings, while avoiding the ring-opening cracking of oligocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons after hydrogenation and saturation. This structure has aromatic active sites and can undergo subsequent alkylation reactions to produce high viscosity and high viscosity index bright oil products.

[0049] In this invention, the aromatic-containing heavy distillate oil is hydrogenated to saturate most of its polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) into oligocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons containing cycloalkane rings. By adjusting the operating conditions of the hydrogenation reaction, the suitable aromatic hydrocarbon content of the hydrogenation product is 50-90 wt%, preferably 60-80 wt%, and the refractive index at 20°C is 1.50-1.52. When the refractive index at 20°C is less than 1.52, most of the PAHs in the hydrogenation product are converted into oligocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Simultaneously, to avoid further hydrogenation saturation and ring-opening of the oligocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, the refractive index of the hydrogenation product cannot be too low; that is, the refractive index at 20°C is not less than 1.50.

[0050] Preferably, the refractive index of the hydrogenation product at 20°C is 1.50-1.52, for example, 1.5, 1.505, 1.51, 515, 1.52, or any value within the range of any two values, preferably 1.5-1.52, and the kinematic viscosity at 100°C is 6-10 mmHg. 2 / s, preferably 7-9mm 2 / s。 .

[0051] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, the refractive index parameter is measured using SH / T 0724 (Method for determination of refractive index and refractive dispersion of liquid hydrocarbons).

[0052] In this invention, the olefin oil contains 50-100 wt% olefins, preferably 70%-100 wt%, and the olefins have C10-C20 carbon atoms, preferably C12-C16. The olefin type is at least one of α-olefins, internal olefins, or dienes. By using preferred conditions, it can be ensured that the hydrogenation product and the high-concentration olefin oil can undergo alkylation reaction, and that the alkyl side chain has a suitable number of carbon atoms, which can meet the requirements of bright oil for viscosity index and pour point.

[0053] In this invention, the weight ratio of the hydrogenation product to the olefin oil is 1:0.3-5, preferably 1:1-5. Using the preferred conditions, it can be ensured that the hydrogenation product undergoes a polyalkylation reaction with sufficient olefins, having 2-4 alkyl side chains, which gives the bright oil a high viscosity characteristic.

[0054] In this invention, a wide range of types of strong acid catalysts are available. The strong acid catalyst is selected from liquid strong acids with an acidity coefficient (pKa) less than 0, preferably from ultra-strong liquid acids with an acidity coefficient (pKa) less than -5, including at least one of concentrated sulfuric acid (98 wt%), trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, fluorosulfonic acid, perchloric acid, and hydrobromic acid; more preferably, the ultra-strong liquid acid is selected from concentrated sulfuric acid and / or trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. To achieve the polyalkylation reaction of the hydrogenation product with the olefin, the catalyst needs to meet the strong acidity requirement. Simultaneously, to ensure easy separation of the synthesis product from the catalyst, a liquid acid catalytic system that is immiscible with the reaction product is selected.

[0055] In this invention, the alkylation reaction can be carried out in a fully mixed-flow reactor. The alkylation reaction conditions are: temperature of 0-60℃, preferably 20-55℃, and reaction time of 5-300 min, preferably 20-90 min. Using these preferred conditions, polyalkylation reactions between aromatics and olefins can be achieved, resulting in high olefin conversion and high-viscosity bright oil synthesis, while avoiding olefin polymerization and improving olefin utilization. The sedimentation and separation time between the reaction product and the catalyst is 5-240 min, preferably 15-60 min. The upper liquid phase is the alkylation product, and the lower liquid phase is the catalyst phase.

[0056] The method provided by this invention uses heavy distillate oil rich in aromatics as raw material and employs hydrogenation treatment to saturate polycyclic aromatics into oligocyclic aromatic components with cycloalkane rings, possessing both aromatic ring and cycloalkane ring structures. The hydrogenation product increases the alkyl side chain by reacting with olefins in an aromatic alkylation reaction, thereby improving the product viscosity and viscosity index, and thus transforming low-value heavy distillate oil into high-viscosity and high-viscosity index bright oil products.

[0057] The second aspect of the present invention provides a gloss oil prepared by the method provided in the first aspect.

[0058] The bright oil product prepared using the method provided in this invention has high viscosity and a high viscosity index, as well as low pour point and high oxidation stability. Under preferred process conditions, the kinematic viscosity of the bright oil is ≥30 mm. 2 / s and viscosity index ≥90.

[0059] A third aspect of the present invention provides an apparatus for preparing bright oil, used in any of the methods described above for producing high viscosity and high viscosity index bright oil. The apparatus comprises a hydrogenation reactor, an alkylation reactor, and a product distillation column connected in sequence. The hydrogenation reactor is filled with a hydrogenation catalyst and has a hydrogen inlet, a raw material inlet, and a hydrogenated product outlet. The alkylation reactor has a hydrogenated product inlet, an olefin oil inlet, an alkylation catalyst inlet, an alkylation product outlet, and an alkylation catalyst outlet. The product distillation column has an alkylation product inlet, a top product outlet, and a bottom product outlet.

[0060] Preferably, it also includes a raw material pre-fractionation tower, which is provided with a raw material inlet, a top stream outlet, a side stream outlet, and a bottom stream outlet.

[0061] Preferably, the alkylation reactor is a fully mixed-flow batch reactor;

[0062] Preferably, both the raw material pre-fractionation tower and the product distillation tower are packed towers.

[0063] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention, but the drawings and embodiments do not constitute a limitation of the present invention.

[0064] Appendix Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of one embodiment of the method for producing gloss oil provided by the present invention. (See attached diagram) Figure 1 As shown, when using catalytic cracking slurry as feedstock, the catalytic cracking slurry 5 enters the feedstock distillation tower 1 for fractionation into light fraction 6, middle fraction 7, and heavy fraction 8. The middle fraction 7 and hydrogen 9 are introduced into the hydrogenation reactor 2, where they undergo a hydrogenation reaction in contact with the hydrogenation catalyst. The resulting hydrogenation product 10 enters the alkylation reactor 3. Simultaneously, olefin oil 11 and strongly acidic catalyst 12 also enter the alkylation reactor 3. Under alkylation reaction conditions, the aromatics in the hydrogenation product undergo alkylation with the olefins. The reactants are separated into layers, and the spent alkylation catalyst 14 is discharged from the reactor. The separated alkylation product 13 enters the product distillation tower for fractionation to obtain alkylation product light fraction 15 and alkylation product heavy fraction 16 (above 500°C). The alkylation product heavy fraction 16 is a bright oil product.

[0132] As shown in Table 2, the method provided by this invention, especially with the hydrotreating conditions specified, is within the preferred protection range; combined with alkylation treatment, especially with the alkylation treatment conditions specified within the preferred protection range, using catalytic cracking slurry as feedstock, a kinematic viscosity > 30 mm is obtained. 2 Bright oil products with a viscosity index ≥90 and a viscosity index of ≥90.

[0133] Compared to Example 1, the hydrogenation treatment conditions specified in Example 6 are all higher than the protection range specified in this invention. The refractive index of the hydrogenated product is lower than 1.50, and the viscosity index of the product is higher, but the viscosity is lower, but it still meets the viscosity index requirements of bright oil products.

[0134] Compared to Example 1, the hydrogenation treatment conditions specified in Example 7 are all lower than the protection range specified in this invention. The refractive index of the hydrogenated product is higher than 1.52, and the viscosity of the resulting bright oil product is higher, but the viscosity index is lower. However, it still meets the viscosity index requirements for bright oil products.

[0135] Compared to Example 1, the alkylation reaction conditions specified in Example 8 are not within the preferred protection range defined by this invention. The resulting bright oil product has a higher viscosity index but a lower viscosity, but still meets the viscosity requirements for bright oil products.

[0136] Compared to Example 1, the catalytic cracking slurry in Comparative Example 1 was not hydrogenated and was reacted with olefins through alkylation to obtain heavy component products. The product had a higher viscosity, but a lower viscosity index, which did not meet the viscosity index requirements for bright oil products.

[0137] Compared to Example 1, Comparative Example 2 uses aluminum trichloride, which reacts with olefins via alkylation to obtain a heavy component product. The viscosity and viscosity index of the heavy component product are comparable to those of the product when trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is used, but the acid value of the product is too high, which cannot meet the requirement of bright oil for an acid value ((mgKOH / g)) of less than 0.05%.

[0138] Therefore, the method and apparatus provided by this invention can produce bright oil products with both high viscosity and high viscosity index, which not only expands the source of raw materials, but also the products have good low-temperature fluidity and oxidation stability.

[0139] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above; however, the present invention is not limited thereto. Within the scope of the inventive concept, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, including combinations of various technical features in any other suitable manner. These simple modifications and combinations should also be considered as the content disclosed in the present invention and are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
