Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of selective hydrogenation, in particular to a method for hydrogenating and refining alkynes and diolefins. Background Art

[0002] The C3 fraction in petroleum processing often contains large amounts of methylacetylene and propadiene, which adversely affect subsequent processes. Catalytic selective hydrogenation is currently commonly used to remove these two substances. Three processes are primarily used to remove these substances from C3 streams in industrial plants: vapor-phase catalytic selective hydrogenation, liquid-phase catalytic selective hydrogenation, and catalytic distillation. The vapor-phase selective hydrogenation process heats the C3 liquid fraction to vaporize it, passing it through a catalyst bed for hydrogenation. This simple process utilizes low levels of precious metal catalysts, controls the concentration of methylacetylene and propadiene at the outlet, and saves separation energy in the downstream propylene distillation tower.

[0003] The catalytic reaction in the C3 gas-phase selective hydrogenation process typically operates at relatively high temperatures, which can easily lead to olefin polymerization and coking on the catalyst surface, shortening the catalyst's operating cycle. Currently, industrial operating cycles are generally less than six months, making the process difficult to scale up. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problem of short operating cycle of gas-phase selective dehydrogenation in the prior art and provide a method for hydrogenation refining of alkynes and diolefins. The method utilizes a catalyst with a specific basic center to effectively improve the catalyst selectivity, inhibit the high-temperature polymerization of alkynes and diolefins, and extend the service life of the catalyst.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a method for hydrogenating and refining alkynes and diolefins, which comprises: heating a liquid C3 material from the bottom of a deethanizer and / or the top of a depropanizer to a gas phase in a reactor loaded with a supported palladium catalyst, mixing the obtained gas phase material with hydrogen, and then selectively hydrogenating methylacetylene and propadiene;

[0006] The supported palladium catalyst has a basic center, and the basic center makes the catalyst have a pyrrole adsorption in-situ infrared spectrum at 40°C, 3250-3370cm -1 Moreover, after the catalyst was adsorbed with pyrrole at 40 ° C, nitrogen was used to purge the catalyst for 0 minutes, and the in-situ infrared spectrum at 3160-3420 cm -1 The peak height of the absorption peak in the range is similar to that of the 3160-3420 cm-1 absorption peak in the in-situ infrared spectrum measured by nitrogen purge for 15 minutes. -1 The ratio of the absorption peak height within the range is greater than 5.

[0007] The method described in the present invention is combined with the specific surface basic centers of the catalyst, and has the advantage of low content of methyl acetylene and propadiene in the outlet during the gas-phase hydrogenation of C3, can effectively prevent polymerization and coking during the gas-phase hydrogenation process, has better propylene selectivity and lower C4+ generation, thereby extending the service life of the C3 gas-phase selective hydrogenation technology.

[0057] In the present invention, the in-situ infrared spectrum of pyrolysis adsorption of the catalyst can be measured by the following method:

[0058] a) placing a powdered catalyst sample in an infrared cell, vacuum-treating it, and then heating it to 350°C at a rate of 20°C / min;

[0059] b) keeping the temperature at 350°C for 2 h in a vacuum state, and then cooling to 40°C at a cooling rate of 20°C / min;

[0060] c) Maintaining the temperature at 40°C, introduce nitrogen gas for 30 minutes at a nitrogen flow rate of 5 mL / min;

[0061] d) maintaining the temperature at 40° C., introducing gaseous pyrrole for adsorption for 10 minutes at a gas flow rate of 5 mL / min, and recording the in situ infrared spectrum of the sample;

[0062] e) Maintaining the temperature at 40°C, purge with nitrogen at a flow rate of 5 mL / min for 30 minutes, and record the in situ infrared spectrum of the sample.

[0063] Before testing, the granular catalyst sample should be ground into powder and filled into the in-situ sample cell with the surface kept flat. The purpose of steps a to c is to remove water and impurities adsorbed on the catalyst surface.

[0064] In the pyrrole adsorption step (step d), the in-situ infrared spectrum of the sample can be recorded at different times as needed, for example, the in-situ infrared spectrum of the sample can be recorded at 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 4 minutes, 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, and 10 minutes. In the in-situ infrared spectrum of pyrrole adsorption, 3160-3420 cm -1 The NH bond stretching vibration absorption peak appears in the range of 3160-3420cm, which corresponds to the base strength of the basic center on the catalyst surface. The higher the wave number of the peak position, the weaker the base strength of the basic center. -1 There are multiple NH bond stretching vibration absorption peaks in the range, indicating that the basic centers on the catalyst surface are diversified. The peak positions of pyrrole adsorption on different catalysts are quite different. Usually two or more peaks will overlap. In some cases, one peak will become the shoulder of another peak. In order to calculate the peak positions of each absorption peak, the commonly used data processing software can be used to analyze the peaks at 3160-3420cm -1 The absorption curve of the interval was fitted with peaks.

[0065] After purging with nitrogen, the intensity of the pyrrole infrared absorption peak gradually weakened. Spectrum 3160-3420cm after purging for 15 minutes -1 Absorption peak in the range 3160-3420cm and purge 0 minute spectrum -1 The peak height ratio of the absorption peaks within the range can be used to illustrate the adsorption capacity of the basic center on the catalyst surface for pyrrole, proving the existence of the basic center.

[0066] After the measurement, nitrogen purging can be maintained until the temperature drops to room temperature, with a nitrogen flow rate of 3-7 mL / min.

[0116] Test Example 2

[0117] This test example is used to illustrate the effect evaluation of liquid phase selective hydrogenation.

[0118] The process flow for the gas-phase hydrogenation of a C3 fraction stream utilizes a single-stage adiabatic fixed-bed reactor design. The C3 fraction stream composition at the reactor inlet is 93% propylene (mol), 4.7% methylacetylene and propadiene (mol), 1.2% ethane (mol), 10 ppb As, and the balance propane. The hydrogenation reaction space velocity is 3000 h / min. -1 , the pressure is 1.65MPa; the reactor inlet is equipped with hydrogen in a ratio of 1.55-1.85 of the molar amount of hydrogen to the total molar amount of methylacetylene and propadiene, the reactor inlet temperature is 82°C, and the outlet temperature is 130°C.

[0119] The commercially available catalyst is a supported palladium catalyst, and its operating cycle in industrial use is about 6 months.

[0120] The catalysts prepared in the examples and comparative examples and the above catalyst were used for gas phase hydrogenation, and the operating cycle (h), propylene selectivity (%) and C4+ production (mol%) were measured. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0121] The operating cycle refers to the time the system can operate when the total content of methylacetylene and propadiene at the outlet is controlled below 10 ppm.

[0122] The selectivity to propylene is calculated as:

[0123]

[0124] The amount of C4+ generated is the sum of the contents of C4 and above components in the analysis of the reactor outlet components.

[0125] Table 2

[0126] catalyst Operation cycle (h) Propylene selectivity (%) C4+ production (mol%) A 320 73 0.0001 B 310 69 0.0001 C 285 66 0.0002 D 280 64 0.0001 a 210 43 0.0005 b 205 39 0.0004 c 175 51 0.0005 d 120 26 0.1 e 80 20 0.4 f 130 32 0.2 Commercially available catalysts 260 30 0.1

[0127] As shown in Table 2, the gas-phase hydrogenation of methylacetylene and propadiene from the C3 fraction demonstrates that, while ensuring that the outlet methylacetylene and propadiene concentrations were less than 10 ppm, the run times and propylene selectivities of the various catalysts varied. The catalysts prepared in the Examples exhibited longer run times, better propylene selectivity, and lower C4+ formation than the catalysts prepared in the Comparative Examples and commercially available catalysts, demonstrating that modification of the catalyst surface with basic sites improves the catalyst's gas-phase hydrogenation performance.

[0128] The gas phase selective hydrogenation method provided in the present invention can effectively improve the selectivity of the catalyst, inhibit the high-temperature polymerization of alkynes and dienes, and extend the service life of the catalyst.

[0129] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Within the technical concept of the present invention, various simple variations of the technical solution of the present invention may be made, including combining the various technical features in any other appropriate manner. These simple variations and combinations should also be regarded as disclosed in the present invention and fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
