Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coal chemical industry, and more specifically, to a coal-based aviation kerosene and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Liquid fuels are the power source for aircraft, and fuel energy determines flight performance. Conventional liquid fuels have low energy, which has become a problem restricting the performance of existing aircraft and the development of new aircraft. The energy of a fuel (energy = density * calorific value) depends on its molecular structure. Petroleum-refined fuels are mainly composed of chain and monocyclic structures with lower density and volumetric calorific value, while Fischer-Tropsch synthesis fuels have a higher content of chain structures.

[0003] Coal direct liquefaction oil is rich in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and has a unique molecular structure, fully retaining the high-density polycyclic structure characteristic of coal. It is a high-quality raw material for producing high-density, high-heat-sinking, and high-heat-stability aviation kerosene. The production of aerospace fuel from coal direct liquefaction oil generally involves processes such as phenol removal, hydrogenation and impurity removal, hydrogenation saturation, and fractionation to obtain a mixture of cycloalkanes with a boiling range of 150–300℃. However, this route results in low aviation kerosene fraction yields, poor product performance, and its economic viability needs improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0027] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. These embodiments are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0028] A method for preparing coal-based aviation kerosene according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0029] (1) Light oil fraction is obtained by distilling and cutting coal direct liquefaction oil;

[0030] (2) The light oil fraction, methanol and hydrogen are subjected to alkylation and hydrogenation reactions to obtain reaction products; the reaction products are distilled and cut to obtain coal-based aviation kerosene.

[0031] The method for preparing coal-based aviation kerosene according to this invention involves simultaneously subjecting the light oil fraction of direct coal liquefaction oil to alkylation and hydrogenation reactions to obtain coal-based aviation kerosene. The light oil fraction contains most of the phenolic substances found in direct coal liquefaction oil. These phenolic substances undergo hydrodeoxygenation with hydrogen, thereby reducing the oxygen content in the light oil fraction and converting the abundant phenolic substances in the raw material into aromatics or alkylbenzenes. Aromatics and alkylbenzenes are components of the target product, aviation kerosene, which improves the quality and yield of the aviation kerosene. Simultaneously, the hydrogenation reaction achieves hydrodesulfurization and denitrification, removing heteroatoms such as O, S, and N, further improving the quality of the coal-based aviation kerosene. The light oil fraction and methanol undergo an alkylation carbonization reaction, converting the light oil fraction into an aviation kerosene fraction, increasing the utilization rate of direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol, and increasing the yield of aviation kerosene components. The alkylation reaction is carried out in a hydrogen-rich environment, which helps to slow down the carbon deposition rate of the catalyst used in the alkylation reaction, thereby extending the catalyst's lifespan and reducing catalyst costs. This invention uses light oil fractions from direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol as the main raw materials. These materials are widely available and inexpensive, which helps to improve the utilization rate of direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol, increase the yield of coal-based aviation kerosene, and reduce production costs while realizing the high-value utilization of direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol.

[0032] In some embodiments, in step (1), the cutting temperature of the light oil fraction is ≤230℃, specifically, for example, 170℃, 180℃, 190℃, 200℃, 210℃, 220℃, 230℃; the light oil fraction is a fraction with a cutting temperature not higher than the cutting temperature. In a specific embodiment, the cutting temperature of the light oil fraction is 230℃, that is, the light oil fraction is a coal direct liquefaction oil fraction with a cutting temperature of ≤230℃.

[0033] In some embodiments, in step (2), the cutting temperature of the coal-based aviation kerosene is ≥150℃, specifically, for example, 150℃, 170℃, 180℃, 190℃, 200℃, 220℃, 250℃, 300℃; the coal-based aviation kerosene is a fraction with a cutting temperature not lower than the cutting temperature. In a specific embodiment, the coal-based aviation kerosene is a fraction with a temperature ≥150℃, more specifically, a fraction with a temperature of 150 to 300℃.

Optionally, the reaction pressure is the pressure of hydrogen gas.

[0037] In this embodiment of the invention, by optimizing the temperature and time of the alkylation and hydrogenation reactions, it is beneficial to carry out the alkylation and hydrogenation reactions efficiently, which is beneficial to further improve the conversion efficiency of light oil fractions and methanol to prepare aviation kerosene, and improve the aviation kerosene yield and fuel performance.

[0038] In some embodiments, in step (2), the alkylation reaction and the hydrogenation reaction are carried out in a reaction vessel.

[0039] In some embodiments, in step (2), the hydrogenation reaction is carried out using a hydrogenation catalyst; the hydrogenation catalyst includes an active component and a support; the active component includes Cu element;

[0040] Optionally, the active component is a sulfide of a metal element, specifically a sulfide of Cu; the active component in the hydrogenation catalyst has a weight content of 0.1% to 8% based on the metal element, specifically, for example, 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%; the support includes at least one of inorganic oxides or molecular sieves; the inorganic oxide includes at least one of alumina and silicon oxide; the molecular sieve includes MCM-22 molecular sieve.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, phenolic substances in the light oil fraction of direct coal liquefaction oil undergo a hydrodeoxygenation reaction with hydrogen, thereby reducing the oxygen content in the feedstock and yielding aromatics and alkylbenzenes, thus increasing the yield of aviation kerosene. Hydrogen-entrained conditions and a Cu-containing hydrogenation catalyst can efficiently perform the hydrodeoxygenation reaction, converting the abundant phenolic substances in the feedstock into aromatics or alkylbenzenes. This invention does not impose strict limitations on the preparation method of the hydrogenation catalyst; conventional methods in the art can be used.

[0042] In some embodiments, in step (2), the mass ratio of the hydrogenation catalyst to the light oil fraction is 1 to 30:100, specifically, for example, 1:100, 2:100, 5:100, 10:100, 15:100, 20:100, 25:100, 30:100. In these embodiments of the invention, this facilitates the efficient execution of the hydrogenation reaction.

[0043] In some embodiments, in step (2), the alkylation reaction is carried out using an alkylation catalyst; the alkylation catalyst includes an active component and a support; the active component includes at least one of Mo and Ni elements;

[0044] Optionally, the active component is a sulfide of a metal element; the active component in the alkylation catalyst has a weight content of 0.1% to 5% based on the metal element, specifically, for example, 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%; the support includes at least one molecular sieve; preferably, the molecular sieve includes at least one of ZSM-11 or MCM-22; the silicon-to-aluminum ratio, i.e., the silicon-to-aluminum molar ratio, of the molecular sieve is 20 to 200.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, in the presence of an alkylation catalyst, light distillate oil from direct coal liquefaction oil undergoes an alkylation reaction with methanol to generate coal-based aviation kerosene at 150–300°C. The method of this invention employs a hydrogen-based process, which can significantly slow down the carbon deposition rate of the alkylation catalyst, extend its service life, and reduce catalyst costs. This invention does not impose strict limitations on the preparation method of the alkylation catalyst; conventional methods in the art can be used. Mo and Ni-modified ZSM-11 or MCM-22 catalysts can significantly remove heteroatoms such as S and N, improving the quality of aviation kerosene. Simultaneously, through the alkylation carbonization reaction, light distillate oil can be converted into aviation kerosene fractions at 150–300°C, improving the utilization rate of direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol, and increasing the yield of aviation kerosene components.

[0046] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the alkylation catalyst to the light oil fraction is 0.5 to 20:100, specifically, for example, 0.5:100, 1:100, 2:100, 5:100, 10:100, 15:100, and 20:100. In these embodiments, this facilitates the efficient execution of the alkylation reaction and the removal of heteroatoms such as S and N.

[0080] Table 1 Properties of light oil fractions ≤230℃ in Examples 1-5

[0081]

[0082] Table 2 Properties of Coal-Based Aviation Kerosene Products in Examples 1-5

[0083]

[0084] In Examples 1-5, the methanol conversion rate was higher than 99%, and the selectivity of coal-based aviation kerosene was higher than 91%. This invention uses direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol as main raw materials, and alkylates and hydrogenates the light oil fraction of direct coal liquefaction oil to obtain coal-based aviation kerosene. This achieves high-value utilization of the light oil fraction of direct coal liquefaction oil and methanol, while reducing the production cost of aviation kerosene. In Comparative Example 1, the selectivity of coal-based aviation kerosene was 84.4%, which is relatively low. This is because the molecular sieve alkylation catalyst has strong acidity, and carbon deposition easily occurs during the alkylation reaction, reducing the catalyst's activity and thus decreasing the selectivity of the target product. In Example 1, the simultaneous hydrogenation reaction effectively prevents carbon deposition, maintains the activity of the alkylation catalyst, and generates more of the target product.

[0085] As can be seen from Table 2, the density ρ of the coal-based aviation kerosene prepared in Examples 1-5 is >0.89 g / cm³. 3 The net calorific value is >43.0 MJ / kg. It is evident that, compared to Comparative Example 1, the coal-based aviation kerosene of Examples 1-5 exhibits superior fuel performance.

[0086] The coal-based aviation kerosene of Examples 1-5 of this invention has sulfur content below 3 mg / L and nitrogen content below 5 mg / L, indicating that sulfur and nitrogen have been removed. However, in Comparative Example 1, without the addition of a hydrogenation catalyst, the content of S and N heteroatoms in the coal-based aviation kerosene product is relatively high. The embodiments of this invention, through alkylation and hydrogenation processes, can significantly remove S and N heteroatoms, improving the quality of coal-based aviation kerosene and yielding high-quality, high-performance coal-based aviation kerosene.
