Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of petroleum hydrorefining technology, specifically relating to a method for hydrorefining catalytic cracking gasoline. Background Technology

[0002] Aromatics, as a basic chemical raw material, hold an important position. Their production technology and level are one of the indicators of a country's petrochemical development level. Global demand for aromatics is constantly increasing, especially for benzene and xylene, where demand is growing even faster. my country's aromatics production cannot meet this demand. Currently, the main source of aromatics is the extraction and separation of cracked gasoline, a byproduct of catalytic reforming gasoline and ethylene plants. Therefore, broadening the sources of aromatics extraction feedstock is of great significance for improving my country's self-sufficiency in the aromatics market and reducing dependence on foreign markets.

[0003] Catalytic cracking is a technology developed based on catalytic cracking, which produces propylene from heavy feedstock. Through process adjustments, catalytic cracking can produce gasoline with high aromatic content as feedstock for aromatics production. However, aromatics products have very strict requirements regarding impurities such as sulfur and nitrogen. Therefore, before aromatics extraction, catalytic cracked gasoline needs to be saturated with olefins and impurities such as sulfur and nitrogen removed.

[0004] Catalytic cracking technology emerged relatively late, and patent literature on hydrogenation catalysts and hydrotreating processes for catalytic cracking gasoline is scarce. Hydrotreating technology centered on hydrogenation catalysts for cracked gasoline (a byproduct of steam cracking to ethylene production) is an important branch of the hydrotreating field and can provide a reference for catalytic cracking gasoline hydrotreating technology. However, there are still some differences between catalytic cracking gasoline and steam cracking gasoline, mainly in that catalytic cracking gasoline has higher nitrogen, sulfur, and diene content, and its components are relatively heavier. The feedstock used in steam thermal cracking processes is lighter (mostly naphtha), resulting in relatively low sulfur content and virtually no nitrogen in steam cracking gasoline; the feedstock used in catalytic cracking processes is heavier (wax oil or residue oil), leading to higher sulfur and nitrogen content in the catalytic cracking process. Therefore, the lower quality of catalytic cracking gasoline places higher demands on hydrorefining catalysts. The hydrorefining process for catalytic cracking gasoline aimed at producing aromatics extraction feedstock needs to solve two key problems: first, the catalyst must have low aromatics saturation activity under high desulfurization, denitrification, and olefin saturation activity; second, higher requirements are placed on the catalyst's anti-coking performance to ensure long-term stable operation of the unit.

[0005] Hydrorefining catalysts are classified into supported and unsupported types, with supported catalysts being more prevalent in industrial applications. Supported hydrorefining catalysts are typically prepared by impregnating an active metal (Mo, W, Ni, Co, etc.) onto a support. The active component of the catalyst prepared by this impregnation method is distributed on the inner and outer surfaces of the catalyst support, including the inner surfaces of deep pores and voids. Numerous reports have been published on the preparation methods of hydrorefining catalysts, mainly focusing on preparation methods and processes, support modification, and the addition of auxiliary agents.

[0006] Conventional methods produce hydrorefining catalysts with active metals in an oxidized state, while the actual catalytically active component is in a sulfidated state. Therefore, the catalyst must undergo sulfidation activation before use, a process known as pre-sulfidation. Pre-sulfidation significantly impacts catalyst performance and is a crucial pretreatment step. Based on the sulfur loading method, pre-sulfidation methods can be categorized into in-vessel pre-sulfidation and external pre-sulfidation.

[0007] In-reactor pre-sulfurization technology involves loading the catalyst into the reactor before sulfidation. The hydrogen sulfide required for the reaction is usually produced by decomposing a sulfiding agent, and industrially, dimethyl disulfide (hereinafter referred to as DMDS) is commonly used. The main sulfidation steps are as follows: under hot hydrogen circulation (reactor inlet temperature reaches 180℃), DMDS is gradually injected into the system, then decomposes with hydrogen to release hydrogen sulfide gas, which then reacts with the oxidized catalyst in the reactor to finally obtain the sulfided catalyst. This method has three main problems: (1) the sulfiding agent used is toxic and harmful, and easily causes environmental pollution; (2) the equipment needs to be equipped with sulfidation facilities and supporting pipelines that are only used during operation; (3) the equipment poses safety and environmental hazards during the sulfidation process due to high temperature, high pressure, and high H2S concentration.

[0008] Therefore, the external pre-sulfurization method has emerged. The advantages of external pre-sulfurization technology are: (1) External pre-sulfurization technology improves the utilization rate of active metal components of hydrogenation catalyst and makes the catalyst more fully sulfided; (2) External pre-sulfurization technology can save start-up time and make the start-up process more convenient; (3) The start-up site of external pre-sulfurization catalyst avoids the use of toxic sulfides and does not require the installation of special sulfidation facilities.

[0009] Patent CN 112337488 A discloses a nickel sulfide-based hydrogenation catalyst and a method for hydrogenating pyrolysis gasoline. Nickel is the main active metal, copper and / or molybdenum are co-active metals, and magnesium-aluminum composite oxide is the dispersion medium. The method includes a first-stage nickel sulfide-based hydrogenation catalyst and a second-stage nickel sulfide-based hydrogenation catalyst. The method involves: firstly, loading the first-stage and second-stage nickel sulfide-based hydrogenation catalysts into two series-connected fixed-bed hydrogenation reactors with built-in microporous dispersion components; purging the reactors and pipelines with nitrogen; then mixing preheated hydrotreated naphtha with hydrogen and introducing the mixture into the fixed-bed hydrogenation reactors; simultaneously raising the temperature to the reaction conditions; and finally switching to pyrolysis gasoline for the hydrogenation reaction.

[0010] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method described in patent CN1109495A involves connecting two pre-sulfurized non-precious metal catalysts with different activities and particle diameters in series, either separately in one reactor or in two separate reactors, and operating at a reaction temperature of 150–300°C, a hydrogen partial pressure of 1.2–8.0 MPa, and a volume hourly space velocity of 4–20 h⁻¹. -1 and 1 to 15 hours -1 Volumetric hydrogen-to-oil ratio 150–500 nm 3 / m 3 The hydrogenation reaction is carried out under operating conditions where the weight ratio of recycled oil to fresh feedstock is 0.5–5:1. The diene value of the hydrogenated product is less than 1 gI₂ / 100 g, and the octane number loss is no more than 3 units. The hydrogenated product is used as a gasoline blending component. The hydrogenated product of this invention is used as a feedstock for aromatics extraction.

[0011] Patent ZL 200610064905.0 relates to a hydrorefining catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. The catalyst uses molybdenum, cobalt, and nickel as active components. Based on 100% of the total catalyst weight, it contains 14-20% molybdenum oxide, 1-6% cobalt oxide, and 1-4% nickel oxide. The content of alkali metal oxides in the additives is 1-3%, the content of P and / or Sb oxides in the additives is 1-5%, and the content of Si and / or tin oxides in the additives is 2-6%. This catalyst can be used for the hydrorefining of C5-C8 and C6-C8 distillate oils, and can adapt to oils with varying sulfur content and high space velocities. However, the patent does not describe the catalyst's denitrification performance or its desulfurization performance under high nitrogen content conditions.

[0012] The literature "Industrial Application of DCC Gasoline Full-Fraction Selective Hydrodesulfurization Technology (CDOS-FRCNⅡ)" introduces the advantages of a gasoline full-fraction selective hydrodesulfurization process for producing ultra-low sulfur gasoline. This process eliminates the need for catalytic cracking of gasoline light and heavy fractions (LCN / HCN), and features a simple process, flexible operation, and low investment. The novel nano-titanium-based catalyst used in this process exhibits high desulfurization activity, high selectivity, and stability, making it suitable for full-fraction hydrodesulfurization processes. It demonstrates excellent activity and stability in processing FCC gasoline and DCC gasoline with high diene and high olefin content. However, a three-bed reactor is required to achieve the desired results. Specific process conditions are shown in the table below:

[0013] project actual value <![CDATA[Space velocity per hour -1 > 2.5 <![CDATA[Feed rate / t·h -1 > 63 Inlet temperature / °C 152 Second reaction inlet temperature / ℃ 281.5 Three-phase inlet temperature / ℃ 355.8 Pressure / MPa 1.63~1.66

[0014] ZL 200810010245.7 discloses a method for pre-sulfurizing a hydrogenation catalyst and a start-up method for a hydrogenation process. During the catalyst pre-sulfurization process, the amount of sulfiding agent introduced into the pre-sulfurized portion of the catalyst is significantly higher than the theoretical sulfur requirement of the active hydrogenation metal in the catalyst. The pre-sulfurized hydrogenation catalyst is mixed with or layered with the unpre-sulfurized hydrogenation catalyst in the reactor for start-up activation; however, this operation may result in uneven distribution of the active sulfidated phase in the catalyst.

[0015] CN 104646034 A discloses a method for preparing a sulfide-type hydrorefining catalyst. The method involves impregnating a support with an impregnation solution, followed by in-situ crystallization and heat treatment to obtain the sulfide-type hydrorefining catalyst. The impregnation solution is characterized by containing active metals such as ammonium molybdate and / or ammonium tungstate, inorganic salt precursors of Ni and / or Co, and also contains a sulfiding agent, an organic complexing agent, and a co-solvent.

[0016] Patent ZL 200710012674.3 describes a start-up method for gasoline hydrorefining. This method involves pre-sulfurizing the hydrodesulfurization catalyst at specific sulfidation temperatures and times, then switching the feedstock, and directly adjusting the process parameters to conventional reaction conditions for selective hydrodesulfurization of gasoline. The drawback of this method is the long stabilization time after feedstock switching. In a specific embodiment of this patent, the stabilization time on a small evaluation device reached 100 hours, resulting in low efficiency in terms of experimental time. More importantly, it is well known that the poor product quality caused by unstable catalyst activity during the initial start-up of large industrial plants can impose significant economic pressure on enterprises.

[0017] Introducing promoters into catalysts is one of the most common methods to improve the activity of hydrogenation catalysts. Commonly used promoters for hydrorefining catalysts include primary promoters such as metals like cobalt and nickel, and secondary promoters such as non-metals like phosphorus and boron. Meanwhile, chelating agents, such as citric acid, phosphoric acid, ethylenediamine, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and ethylene glycol, which are used as complexing components in the preparation of active component solutions, have also achieved good results in the preparation of hydrorefining catalysts.

[0018] Patent ZL201510700293.9 relates to a hydrogenation catalyst and its preparation method. The preparation method includes: (1) loading a water-soluble salt of a hydrogenation metal active component and an organic complexing agent onto a support using an impregnation method, wherein the carbon content in the semi-finished catalyst is 0.03-0.5% by weight; (2) impregnating the semi-finished catalyst obtained in step (1) with a solution containing an organic complexing agent as an impregnation liquid, and then drying it without calcination; (3) loading a metal element as an auxiliary agent onto the support; wherein step (3) is performed before, during, and after step (1) and before step (2) in any one or more of these steps. This patent uses a three-step impregnation method to prepare the catalyst, which consumes a lot of manpower and resources, resulting in a significant increase in the cost of catalyst preparation.

[0019] ZL91110935.8 discloses a method for preparing a cobalt-molybdenum hydrogenation refining catalyst. The method involves dissolving cobalt acetate in water and then adding ethylenediamine at a molar ratio of 1:1.5–3 to form a cobalt-ethylenediamine mixed solution. Concentrated ammonia is added to the solution to adjust the pH to 12–14, followed by the addition of ammonium molybdate, which is then fully dissolved to prepare a co-impregnation solution containing cobalt and molybdenum metals. A porous support is then impregnated with this solution to prepare the catalyst. A drawback of this method is that calcination in an oxygen-free or micro-oxygen atmosphere is required to obtain the catalyst product.

[0020] ZL00122922.2 discloses a catalyst for hydrodesulfurization of distillate oil and its preparation method. The catalyst uses alumina or silica-containing alumina as a support, Mo-Ni as the active component, and adds phosphorus additives. The catalyst is prepared by staged co-impregnation of the support with an alkaline Mo-Ni-P co-impregnation solution, followed by stepwise co-impregnation of the support. This patent uses two or more steps to prepare the catalyst.

[0021] US4409131 discloses a method for preparing a CoMo / NiMo catalyst, which is prepared by impregnating a support with a solution containing an active component and ammonia in one step. The method details the preparation process of the impregnation solution for the active component. During the preparation of the impregnation solution, the mixture needs to be heated to promote the dissolution of the active component.

[0022] US6013598 discloses a method for preparing a selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst, which consists of active components cobalt and molybdenum and a support alumina. It is prepared by impregnating the support with an equal volume of an aqueous solution containing the active components and citric acid. The catalyst obtained by this method can only reach a maximum molybdenum oxide content of 10 wt%.

[0023] The literature “Preparation of Co-Mo-Ni-W / γ-Al2O3 diesel hydrorefining catalyst” investigated the effects of pore-expanding agents and calcination temperature on the physicochemical properties of the support and the effects of the impregnation solution preparation method on its stability. There are two main methods for preparing the impregnation solution: (1) Low temperature method: ① Heat deionized water and phosphoric acid, add basic nickel carbonate (or basic cobalt carbonate) and molybdenum trioxide, continue heating and stirring until dissolved, and cool to room temperature for later use; ② Add ammonium metatungstate and cobalt acetate (or nickel nitrate) to slightly heated deionized water, stir to dissolve, and cool to room temperature for later use; ③ Mix the cooled ammonium metatungstate and cobalt acetate (or nickel nitrate) solution with the nickel (cobalt) molybdenum phosphorus solution prepared in ①, stir evenly, and then make up to a final volume for later use. (2) High-temperature preparation: Dissolve molybdenum trioxide, phosphoric acid, and basic nickel carbonate (or basic cobalt carbonate) in deionized water, heat and stir until completely dissolved, then add ammonium metatungstate and cobalt acetate (or nickel nitrate), continue heating and stirring until completely dissolved into a clear solution, and then make up to volume for later use. Heating and the addition of inorganic acid are required in the preparation of the impregnation solution.

[0024] CN94114194.2 discloses a hydrocarbon hydrodesulfurization catalyst and its preparation method. The catalyst uses zinc oxide-modified γ-Al₂O₃ as a support and cobalt and molybdenum as active components, prepared by a single impregnation with a co-impregnation solution of cobalt and molybdenum. The resulting catalyst has the following composition: CoO 1–10 wt%, MoO₃ 5–18 wt%, ZnO 1–15 wt%, with the balance being γ-Al₂O₃. However, the long-term stability of the catalyst requires further investigation. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for hydrorefining catalytic cracking gasoline. This method uses a catalyst prepared by a pre-spraying method, in which the active components have a more reasonable gradient distribution, thereby giving the catalyst a better hydrorefining performance. At the same time, due to the reasonable gradient distribution of active components, the catalyst of this invention reduces the amount of sulfurizing agent required for pre-sulfurization treatment, significantly reduces hydrogen sulfide emissions during start-up, reduces environmental pollution, and lowers production costs and operational safety risks.

[0026] To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides a method for hydrorefining catalytic cracking gasoline. A pre-sulfurized hydrorefining catalyst is loaded into a fixed-bed reactor. After sulfiding the hydrorefining catalyst, catalytic cracking gasoline and hydrogen are mixed, preheated, and then introduced into the fixed-bed reactor for reaction. The reaction conditions are: reaction temperature 240–360°C, reaction pressure 1.5–4.0 MPa, and space velocity 0.5–4 h⁻¹. -1 The hydrogen-to-oil volume ratio is 100-600:1; the preparation method of the hydrorefining catalyst is as follows: the support is atomized and sprayed with a pre-spraying solution, and then aged after spraying to obtain a pre-treated support. The pre-spraying solution is an aqueous solution of citric acid or a potassium hydroxide solution; the pre-treated support is impregnated with an impregnation solution containing active components, and then aged, dried and calcined to obtain the hydrorefining catalyst.

[0027] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention wherein the pre-sulfurization method of the hydrorefining catalyst is to mix the pre-sulfurized raw material with the hydrorefining catalyst by spraying.

[0028] The method for hydrorefining catalytic cracking gasoline according to the present invention comprises a pre-sulfurized feedstock being a mixture of a sulfiding agent and a sulfidation aid; the amount of the sulfiding agent is 20-70% of the theoretical sulfur requirement of the hydrorefining catalyst, preferably 25-50%; and the amount of the sulfidation aid is 0.5-40% of the weight of the hydrorefining catalyst, preferably 3-25%.

[0029] The theoretical sulfur requirement for a hydrogenation catalyst refers to the amount of sulfur required for the complete conversion of the active metal components in the oxidized hydrogenation catalyst into sulfides such as Co9S8, MoS2, Ni3S2, and WS2. To ensure uniform mixing of the sulfiding agent and the oxidized hydrogenation catalyst, an appropriate amount of sulfidation aid can be added.

[0031] In this invention, the vulcanizing aid used is a commonly used organic solvent in the art, such as one or more of hydrocarbon oils and organic carboxylic acid esters. The hydrocarbon oil used can be one or more of gasoline, kerosene, diesel, kerosene, white oil, industrial soybean oil, lubricating oil base oil, etc., preferably hydrocarbon oils obtained through secondary processing, such as those obtained through catalytic cracking, thermal cracking, etc. The organic carboxylic acid ester used can be an organic carboxylic acid ester containing 6 to 60 carbon atoms, preferably one or more of fatty acid glycerides, animal oils, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, etc.

[0032] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention includes a sulfidation method for the hydrorefining catalyst in which, under hydrogen circulation conditions, the reactor inlet temperature is increased at a rate of 15-25°C / hour; when the catalyst bed temperature reaches 150-160°C, it is kept at a constant temperature for 3-5 hours; when the catalyst bed temperature reaches 180-220°C, it is kept at a constant temperature for 2-10 hours; and when the catalyst bed temperature reaches 260-320°C, it is kept at a constant temperature for 3-9 hours.

[0034] In the catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention, when the carrier is pre-sprayed with citric acid aqueous solution, inorganic acid components are also added to the impregnation solution.

[0035] In the catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention, when pre-spraying the carrier with potassium hydroxide solution, ammonia water is also added to the impregnation solution, and potassium hydroxide and / or a polyamine complexing agent may be selectively added. Specifically, for example, ammonia water and potassium hydroxide are added to the impregnation solution; or ammonia water and a polyamine complexing agent are added to the impregnation solution; or ammonia water, a polyamine complexing agent and potassium hydroxide are added to the impregnation solution; or only ammonia water is added. In the present invention, the polyamine complexing agent is a commonly used complexing agent in the art, such as ethylenediamine or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid.

[0036] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention comprises molybdenum and nickel as active components, and may optionally contain cobalt.

[0037] In this invention, the active component molybdenum is preferably added in the form of ammonium molybdate / molybdenum oxide; the active components cobalt and nickel can be added in the form of their sulfates, halides, nitrates or acetates. Since the nitrates and acetates of cobalt and nickel have good solubility, which is beneficial to the distribution of the active components on the carrier, the active components cobalt and nickel are preferably added in the form of cobalt nitrate and / or cobalt acetate, nickel nitrate and / or nickel acetate.

[0038] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention has a spraying treatment time of 1-20 min, preferably 3-10 min; and an aging treatment time of 5-30 min, preferably 10-20 min.

[0039] The catalytic cracking gasoline hydrorefining method of the present invention uses a support with a specific surface area of ​​120-260 m². 2 / g, preferably 150-220m 2 / g; the water absorption rate of the carrier is 70% to 120%, preferably 80% to 100%.

[0040] In this invention, the carrier is directly loaded with the active component for catalyst preparation without drying and calcination after spray aging. The pre-spray solution is prepared by dissolving citric acid or potassium hydroxide in deionized water. The mass content of citric acid or potassium hydroxide in the pre-spray solution is 0.1 wt% to 5 wt%, preferably 0.5 wt% to 1 wt%. The volume percentage of the pre-spray solution added to the catalyst carrier during the atomization spraying process is 1% to 20% of the total impregnation liquid volume (including the volume of the pre-spray solution and the volume of the active component impregnation liquid), preferably 5% to 10%.

[0041] In this invention, the water absorption rate is expressed as X, such as X = 0.9 if the water absorption rate is 90%; the mass of the spray carrier is expressed as T grams. The volume of the active component impregnation solution is 1.05 × (1 - percentage added to the pre-spray solution) × T ~ 1.25 × (1 - percentage added to the pre-spray solution) × T ml, preferably 1.10 × (1 - percentage added to the pre-spray solution) × T ~ 1.20 × (1 - percentage added to the pre-spray solution) × T ml.

The catalyst may also be free of cobalt oxide depending on the actual situation.

[0043] Beneficial effects of this invention:

[0044] The inventors discovered that in existing technologies, the impregnation step of the active component during the preparation of hydrogenation catalysts involves a concentrated release of adsorption heat, affecting the dispersion state of the active component and the physicochemical properties of the catalyst in the later stages. Based on this, the present invention pre-sprays the catalyst support during the preparation of the hydrogenation refining catalyst, thereby pre-releasing some of the adsorption heat generated during catalyst preparation. Simultaneously, the spray liquid interacts with the support to adjust its properties, resulting in a more rational gradient distribution of the active components in the catalyst. Furthermore, this unexpectedly reduces the amount of sulfiding agent required during the external pre-sulfidation process.

[0045] Sulfidation plays a crucial role in catalyst performance. The pre-sulfided catalyst and corresponding start-up method of this invention facilitate the formation of highly active type II active centers. After sulfidation, the active phase lamellae have a more appropriate number of stacked layers and lamellar length. Furthermore, the active components of the catalyst of this invention form a certain gradient, while simultaneously regulating the interaction between the active metal and the support. The partially sulfided catalyst maintains excellent hydrorefining performance while reducing the amount of sulfiding agent required. During catalyst use, sulfides contained in the oil cause the catalyst's performance to be released slowly. Using the pre-sulfided hydrotreating catalyst and its start-up method of this invention reduces the amount of sulfiding agent used in the pre-sulfidation process, ensuring a safe and stable start-up process and excellent catalyst performance.
