Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of catalyst preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a phosphorus-containing hydrofining catalyst for distillate oil. BACKGROUND
[0002] Domestic oil refining enterprises have multiple hydrofining devices, producing a large amount of diesel distillate products. In particular, with increasingly stringent environmental protection regulations, reducing diesel quantity is the direction of efforts, and oil conversion and oil special development. At present, in order to cope with the low aromatization trend in current oil quality upgrading, especially to solve the problem of multi-ring aromatic content limitation, and to achieve precise hydrogenation, the most fundamental way is to start from the catalyst itself.
[0003] The combination of active metal components in the hydrogenation catalyst is better than the single component activity, and the hydrogenation saturation activity of the W-Ni combination in the combination of metal components is the best, and the hydrogenation denitrification of the Mo-Ni combination is the best. The bulk catalyst is the highest activity hydrogenation catalyst at present, and the active metal content reaches more than 70%. The bulk hydrogenation catalyst can break away from the limitation of metal content, and can arbitrarily adjust the proportion of each active component in the catalyst to improve the hydrogenation performance of the catalyst. In the bulk catalyst, the size and distribution of metal oxide particles have a great influence on the distribution of hydrogenation active metals and the interaction between different hydrogenation active metals, which further affects the hydrogenation activity of the bulk catalyst. At the same time, the pore size and specific surface area of the catalyst also affect the hydrogenation activity of the bulk catalyst, and the smaller the pore size of the catalyst, the larger the molecular reactant cannot pass through the catalyst pores. The smaller the catalyst surface, the uneven distribution of active metals will cause disordered distribution of different hydrogenation active metals, and the high content of metals in the bulk catalyst will cause excessive accumulation of metal particles, which reduces the generation of active phase,
[0004] CN1951561A discloses a method for preparing a hydrogenation catalyst by co-precipitation, and the catalyst uses active metals Ni and W components to co-precipitate with a precipitator to form a Ni x W y O z The composite oxide precursor can be added with an aluminum salt solution, or the aluminum hydroxide can be directly added after gelation, and then mixed with MoO3 by beating, filtered, shaped, and activated to form the final catalyst. The bulk catalyst prepared by the method has small pore volume and specific surface area, and the active metal is excessively accumulated, which reduces the utilization rate of the active metal.
[0005] CN110975911A discloses a bulk phase catalyst and a preparation method thereof. A compound containing Group VIII elements and a compound containing Group VIB elements are formulated into a mixed solution, the pH value of the mixed solution is adjusted to 6-11, then a surfactant is added, and the reaction is carried out in a closed container, the reaction time is at least 10 minutes, and the reaction temperature is 5-75℃. The mixed solution is heated to 80-200℃ for reaction, the reaction time is at least 1 hour, and the bulk phase catalyst is obtained by filtration and drying. The method introduces a seed generation reaction in the catalyst preparation process and adds a surfactant, but the pore volume and specific surface area of the obtained bulk phase catalyst are small.
[0006] CN103861609A discloses a preparation method of a non-supported high-activity hydrogenation catalyst. An acidic solution A containing at least one Group VIII metal compound and an alkaline solution B containing at least one silicon source or aluminum source are slowly mixed into a precipitation reactor to carry out a co-precipitation reaction at a temperature of 20-120℃ and a pH value of 7-12. The obtained slurry is aged, filtered, washed, dried, shaped, and calcined. The hydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method has a higher specific surface area and a larger pore volume, but the obtained material has poor adhesion and can only be shaped into tablets, not into strips.
[0007] CN109692686A discloses a hydrofining catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The hydrofining catalyst is a bulk phase hydrofining catalyst. Mixed solution A and a precipitator are added into a reaction tank to carry out a gelation reaction, generating a precipitate slurry I containing nickel, aluminum, and tungsten. The obtained slurry I is aged. MoO3 is slurried with water to obtain a MoO3 slurry. Mixed solution B and the precipitator are added into the aged slurry I in a concurrent manner to carry out a gelation reaction, generating a precipitate slurry II containing nickel, molybdenum, tungsten, and aluminum. The obtained material is dried, shaped, washed, dried again, and calcined to obtain the hydrofining catalyst. Although the method changes the gelation reaction conditions to make the average stacking number of MoS2 / WS2 of the catalyst 6.0-9.0 layers and the average length of MoS2 / WS2 lamella 4.0-6.5 nm, the metal oxide particles are large, the content of surface active metal is low, and the effect of saturating aromatic hydrocarbons in heavy oil is poor.
[0008] CN106179380A discloses a preparation method of a hydrofining catalyst. The method prepares nickel and aluminum precipitates by a positive addition method, and prepares tungsten, silicon, and aluminum precipitates by a concurrent method. The filter cake of the precipitates is subjected to hydrothermal treatment in steam containing urea. The precipitates prepared by the positive addition method and the concurrent method have different particle sizes, and although the distribution of different hydrogenation active metals can be controlled, the different particle sizes of the precipitates affect the distribution of active metals on the surface of the catalyst.
[0009] CN108786834A discloses a bulk phase hydrogenation catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The catalyst is a spherical particle, and the preparation process is divided into three steps: in the first step, an acidic solution I containing active metal, aluminum and ionic liquid is reacted with an alkaline I solution containing aluminum and active metal, and the pH value is adjusted to 9.0-11.0; in the second step, the reaction slurry obtained in the first step is reacted with an acidic solution II containing active metal, aluminum and ionic liquid, and the pH value is adjusted to 3.0-5.0; in the aging process, an alkaline II containing aluminum and active metal and ionic liquid are continuously added, and the pH value is adjusted to 7.0-8.0; after aging, filtration, drying and calcination, the bulk phase hydrogenation catalyst is obtained. Although the method has larger pore size, optimized pore size gradient distribution from inside to outside, effectively increases the pore size of the catalyst outside, and more active metal can be exposed to the surface of the catalyst pore, the oxide particles in the catalyst are relatively large, the active metal is easy to aggregate, the activity center of the catalyst is not effectively increased, and at the same time, the obtained oxide material has poor adhesion, and can only be spheroidized.
[0010] In the existing coprecipitation method for preparing bulk phase catalyst technology, different precipitation methods and gel forming conditions have a great influence on the particle size of the active metal oxide particles, the pore size distribution, further affect the distribution of the hydrogenation active metal on the catalyst surface and the interaction relationship between different hydrogenation active metals, therefore, how to control the particle size of the active metal oxide particles, increase the content of the surface phase active metal and the activity center density in the catalyst, improve the utilization rate of the surface phase hydrogenation active metal component, and match the particle size of the metal oxide in the catalyst, the active metal distribution and the pore structure are the key to improve the hydrogenation performance of the bulk phase hydrogenation refining catalyst.

[0038] The present application also provides the use of the hydrogenation refining catalyst in the ultra-deep hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation and hydrodearomatization of a heavy diesel oil fraction, wherein the heavy diesel oil fraction has an aromatic content of 50wt%-85wt% and a cetane number of less than 24.
[0039] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:
[0040] 1. In the method for preparing the hydrogenation refining catalyst, the CO2 gas is introduced to control the gas concentration and flow rate to obtain ideal micro-bubbles of the reaction liquid, and the micro-bubbles produced have small volume, are constantly free in water and collide irregularly. Under the combined action of the phosphate ester and the micro-bubbles of the reaction liquid, the particle size of the metal oxides in the catalyst is small, which helps to improve the dispersion of the active metals, reduce the probability of the generation of micropores, increase the pore volume and specific surface area of the bulk catalyst, and the suitable pore size can improve the diffusion efficiency of the catalytic process. The particle size of the oxide particles in the hydrogenation refining catalyst prepared by the present application is small and uniform, which further increases the content of the active metals in the surface catalyst.
[0041] 2. In the present application, the W-, Mo- and Al-containing solution is first precipitated, and the Ni-containing solution is added dropwise in the obtained slurry at a specific pH value. The specific addition sequence, the corresponding pH value control and the active metal precipitation sequence optimize the pore size distribution and the dispersion of the active metals of the obtained catalyst, and the content of the active metals in the surface phase is significantly increased.
[0042] 3. In the present application, the pH value is swung during aging and the sodium metaaluminate solution is added in several times. The amorphous oxides in the oxide particles are dissolved by swinging the pH value, and the size of the oxide particles is modified by adding the sodium metaaluminate solution. After the pH value is swung for n times, the growth of the oxide particles is controlled, the oxide particles are more uniform, more active metals are exposed in the surface phase, the macropores in the bulk catalyst are increased, the macromolecular reactants can easily pass through the pores, meanwhile, the aluminum introduced by the sodium metaaluminate solution increases the surface hydroxyl groups, which further enhances the adhesion of the oxides and is beneficial to the forming of the bulk catalyst.
[0043] 4. In the second drying process after molding, the present invention employs a drying method that ensures the catalyst particles have a pore distribution where the average pore diameter decreases from the outer surface layer to the central core. This reduces the diffusion effect of large molecules and other reactants with larger molecular diameters when entering and exiting the catalyst pores, thereby improving the catalyst's diffusion performance for large molecules. It also enhances the hydrogenation effect of tungsten, nickel, and molybdenum active metals on the catalyst surface on large molecules and other reactants with larger diameters. This effectively utilizes the high-density active metals on the surface of the bulk catalyst and reduces the inhibitory effect of nitrides on the hydrodesulfurization reaction.
[0044] This invention provides a method for preparing hydrorefining catalysts. Through comprehensive control of the preparation steps and conditions, the resulting bulk catalyst exhibits small and uniform metal oxide particles, high hydrogenation active sites on the catalyst surface, and a stepped pore size distribution. This enhances the hydrorefining activity for heavy oil processing, particularly benefiting aromatic saturation, effectively reducing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content, and increasing cetane number. The hydrorefining catalyst prepared by this method possesses high performance in hydrodesulfurization, hydronitrogenation, and aromatic saturation reactions, making it particularly suitable for application in ultra-deep hydrodesulfurization, denitrogenation, and aromatic removal reactions of diesel fractions. Implementation
[0045] In this invention, the specific surface area and pore volume are determined by the cryogenic liquid nitrogen adsorption method, and the mechanical strength is determined by the lateral pressure method.
[0046] In this invention, the content of active metals on the surface of the catalyst is determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the content of active metals in the bulk of the catalyst is determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
[0047] In this invention, wt% is the mass fraction and v% is the volume fraction.
[0048] In this invention, the average particle size (D50 particle size) and particle size distribution of the active metal oxide particles were measured using a nanoparticle size and Zeta potential analyzer (Zetasizer Nano ZS).
[0049] In this invention, "cross-section of a catalyst particle" refers to the entire surface exposed after cutting along the direction of the smallest dimension of a catalyst particle through its geometric center. For example, when the catalyst particle is spherical, the cross-section refers to the entire surface exposed after cutting along the radius or minor axis of the sphere through its center. Alternatively, when the catalyst particle is columnar, the cross-section refers to the entire surface exposed after cutting perpendicular to the length dimension of the column through its center point. The outer perimeter of the exposed surface is referred to as the outermost edge of the cross-section, and the geometric center (such as the aforementioned center of the sphere or the center point of the length dimension) is referred to as the center point of the cross-section.
[0050] In the present application, the method for measuring the average pore diameter of different layers from the outer surface layer to the center core of the catalyst particles is as follows: first, the pore volume, specific surface area and average pore diameter of the sample are measured by low-temperature nitrogen adsorption method (BET), then a certain amount of sample is placed in a catalyst attrition tester, and a certain amount of quartz sand is added to increase the attrition rate. When the particle size of the sample is reduced to a certain extent after grinding, the weight loss of the sample is measured and the pore structure is measured again. According to the relationship that the total pore volume and specific surface area of the sample are equal to the sum of each part, the pore volume and specific surface area of the ground part can be calculated. At the same time, 20-80 samples are measured to calculate the average pore diameter. Thus, the average pore diameters of different layers from the outer surface layer to the center core are determined. Example 1

[0076] The present examples are catalyst activity evaluation experiments of the present application, and are compared with comparative catalysts. The present catalysts A, B, C, D and comparative catalysts E, F, G, H, I, J, K are respectively used in a 200 mL small hydrogenation device for comparative evaluation experiments. In order to further evaluate the ability of the catalysts to saturate aromatics, catalytic diesel oil with high aromatics content is selected as the test raw material, and the main properties of the raw material are shown in Table 4. The catalyst activity evaluation process conditions are: hydrogen partial pressure is 6.4 MPa, reaction temperature is 360 ℃, liquid hourly space velocity is 2.3 h -1 -1, hydrogen to oil volume ratio is 500:1, and the evaluation results are shown in Table 5. From Tables 1-3, it can be seen that, compared with the comparative catalysts, the present catalysts have smaller average particle size of oxide particles and uniform distribution, more surface active metals, and a stepped pore size distribution. From Table 4, it can be seen that the aromatics content of the raw material oil used in the catalyst activity evaluation is high, which will increase the difficulty of hydrogenation saturation, ultra-deep hydrodesulfurization and denitrification of the raw material oil. From the evaluation results in Tables 5-6, it can be seen that the present catalysts not only have excellent hydrodesulfurization activity and hydrodenitrogenation activity, but also have excellent hydrogenation saturation performance, effectively reducing the aromatics content of heavy distillate oil, and the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content is reduced more obviously. The present catalysts have excellent hydrogenation saturation, hydrodesulfurization and hydrodenitrogenation performance when used for processing heavy distillate oil, especially for processing poor quality diesel oil fraction with high aromatics content and high processing difficulty, effectively reducing the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon content and improving the cetane number of diesel oil.
