Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of petrochemical catalysis technology, and relates to a catalytic material and its preparation method, particularly to a hydrogenation catalytic material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] As international crude oil becomes increasingly heavier and market demand for distillate fuels and chemical feedstocks continues to grow, the hydroconversion of low-quality heavy oil to produce high-quality products is becoming increasingly attractive. Residue oils and other petroleum products contain large amounts of gums and asphaltenes, while ethylene tar, coal tar, and other petroleum products contain a significant amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These components have large molecules and high degrees of unsaturation. During hydroconversion, on the one hand, hydrogenation is difficult due to steric hindrance, and on the other hand, carbon deposits easily form, causing pore blockage of the catalyst and affecting the hydrogenation efficiency of the catalyst.

[0003] CN200910083078.3 discloses a hydrocracking catalyst and its preparation method. The catalyst consists of a main catalyst and a co-catalyst. The main catalyst is an aluminosilicate supported on a transition metal, and the co-catalyst is selected from one or more of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds, aromatic nitrogen-containing compounds, and acyl nitrogen-containing compounds to obtain a mixture. The main catalyst and co-catalyst are mixed to obtain a catalyst suitable for the hydrocracking of heavy distillate oils. This preparation method involves a simple mixing of the co-catalyst and the main catalyst, resulting in weak synergistic effects.

[0004] Core-shell catalysts can produce a progressive catalytic effect on oil molecules, with the molecules further entering the core layer for transformation after treatment in the shell. The preparation process of core-shell catalysts is one of the key factors affecting their catalytic efficiency.

[0005] CN202110228071.7 discloses a core-shell catalyst. The preparation method of this core-shell catalyst utilizes different electronic promoters to regulate the catalytic performance of the iron-based catalyst. It achieves control over the acidity and pore structure of the molecular sieve surface through direct ion exchange and alkaline solution pore-expansion treatment, and is applied in the field of carbon dioxide hydrogenation. The preparation method of this core-shell structure involves physically coating an active metal onto a molecular sieve support. However, the dispersibility of the active metal and its synergistic effect with the molecular sieve support need further improvement.

[0006] CN201710709622.5 discloses a core-shell structured hydrogenation catalyst containing a non-acidic or weakly acidic porous support and at least two metal elements or compounds selected from VIII, VIB, and VIIB supported thereon. The metal elements or compounds are distributed in a core-shell layer on the support surface, achieved through two identical loading processes, resulting in a shell layer covering the core layer. This core-shell distribution method allows for hydrogenation of asphaltenes within the pores of a conventional catalyst. However, due to steric hindrance, the hydrogenation conversion of macromolecules by the active metal within the pores is somewhat limited, and the metal utilization rate is slightly insufficient. Summary of the Invention

The core layer exhibits hydrogenation activity for cyclic and chain-like small molecules, while the shell layer exhibits hydrogenation activity for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons rich in π-bond electrons. This enables stepwise hydrogenation of the spherical catalyst particle shell and core layers, and the cascade utilization of the pores.

[0037] A third aspect of the present invention provides a hydrogenation catalyst obtained by the above preparation method.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the core-shell hydrogenation catalyst and its preparation method provided by the present invention have the following advantages:

[0039] The core-shell hydrogenation catalyst provided by this invention has the characteristic of strong hydrogenation ability for macromolecules containing π-bond electrons. It can hydrogenate components containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. As the hydrogenation process proceeds, the number of π-bond electrons decreases, preventing the occurrence of over-hydrogenation reaction and avoiding pore blockage. It is especially suitable for the hydrogenation process of oils such as heavy residue oil and ethylene tar.

[0040] The core-shell hydrogenation catalyst provided by this invention uses organic alcohol polymers to expand the pores during the formation of the shell, giving the shell a large pore size. This reduces the steric hindrance when the shell interacts with macromolecules, making it particularly suitable for hydrogenation of fused ring macromolecules. The core layer has a small pore size, enabling hydrogenation of cyclic and chain-like small molecules. The shell and core layers are utilized stepwise to achieve efficient hydrogenation.

[0041] In the preparation process of the core-shell hydrogenation catalyst provided by this invention, an organic acid solution is used in the pretreatment of the core powder and an organic alcohol polymer is used in the formation of the shell. This can avoid the migration of active metals during high-temperature calcination, thereby maintaining good metal dispersion while increasing the calcination temperature.

[0042] In the preparation process of the core-shell hydrogenation catalyst provided by this invention, an organic acid solution is used in the pretreatment of the core layer powder, and an organic alcohol polymer is used in the formation of the shell layer. During the catalyst calcination process, hydroxyl and carboxyl groups are bridged, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the core-shell catalyst and significantly enhancing its wear resistance. Implementation

[0043] The technical features of the present invention are further described below through embodiments, but are not limited to these embodiments.

[0044] In this paper, the abrasion rate test method is described in ASTM D 4058-1996. This test method is used to test the abrasion performance of catalysts or catalyst supports, wherein the catalyst or catalyst support sample is rotated in a cylindrical drum with a single baffle for a fixed number of revolutions.

[0045] In this paper, pore volume and specific surface area were determined by cryogenic liquid nitrogen physical adsorption, specifically using a Micron ASAP2420 cryogenic nitrogen adsorption instrument. The procedure involved: a small sample was vacuum-treated at 300°C for 3-4 hours, and finally, the product was placed under cryogenic liquid nitrogen conditions (-200°C) for nitrogen adsorption-desorption testing. Surface area was obtained using the BET equation, and pore size distribution was obtained using the BJH model.
