Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of petroleum processing, in particular to a processing method of catalytically cracked light cycle oil, a processing device of catalytically cracked light cycle oil, an application of a heavy component prepared by the processing method, acicular coke and an application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Catalytically cracked light cycle oil (catalytically cracked light diesel oil, referred to as LCO) is usually used as a poor-quality diesel blending component mixed with straight-run diesel. From the composition of LCO, the sulfur and nitrogen contents are high, the total aromatic hydrocarbon content is high, and the cetane number is low, which is a relatively poor diesel component.

[0003] At present, the main outlets of LCO include blending components of commercial diesel, production of light aromatic hydrocarbons (BTX) or high-octane gasoline, and marine fuel oil. Hydrofining technology can greatly upgrade catalytically cracked diesel oil, and catalytically cracked diesel oil after hydro-upgrading can be used as a blending component of commercial diesel and low-sulfur marine fuel. At present, catalytically cracked diesel oil accounts for about 30% of the total amount of diesel products in China. In recent years, with the economic development of China, the growth rate of diesel demand is significantly lower than that of gasoline demand in the domestic market. The apparent consumption ratio of diesel to gasoline in China has decreased from 2.31 in 2005 to 1.25 in 2018, and the consumption ratio of diesel to gasoline will continue to show a downward trend in the coming years. LCO can be converted into light aromatic hydrocarbons or high-octane gasoline by hydro-saturation and catalytic cracking. Domestic and foreign scholars have carried out a large amount of basic research and industrial practice on this technical route.

[0004] CN201210410162.3, CN201310516588.1, CN201310517650.9, CN201310517666.X and CN201310010219.5 disclose a series of processes or methods for catalytic conversion and upgrading of catalytically cracked diesel oil. The technology for converting poor-quality LCO into high-octane catalytically cracked gasoline or light aromatic hydrocarbons (BTX) is mainly through the combination of hydrogenation and catalytic cracking. The aromatic hydrocarbons in the LCO fraction are first selectively hydrogenated and saturated, and then selectively catalytically cracked. By setting a hydrogenated LCO conversion zone and optimizing the process parameters of hydrogenation and catalytic cracking, high-octane gasoline or light aromatic hydrocarbons can be maximally produced.

[0005] Needle coke is a carbon material with silver-gray appearance and needle-shaped texture on the surface, which has high crystallinity, small thermal expansion coefficient, good orientation, good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, etc. It is a raw material for preparing high-end carbon material products such as high-power graphite electrode and high-performance lithium negative electrode. Needle coke can be divided into oil-based needle coke and coal-based needle coke. Oil-based needle coke has less porosity, high bulk density, high mechanical strength, low nitrogen content, low gas expansion rate during graphitization, good adsorption performance for binders and is easy to form. Although the raw materials of coal-based needle coke and oil-based needle coke are different, the existing needle coke preparation or production related technologies are all based on three to six ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as raw materials, which are prepared through heat polycondensation, mesophase culture and needle coke solidification processes.

[0006] In the past two years, affected by the strong demand for needle coke, the number of new needle coke enterprises has increased significantly. From 2018 to 2021, only four years, the production capacity increased from 510,000 tons to 2,100,000 tons, and the market competition was fierce. However, the supply of oil-based needle coke raw material catalytic slurry has not increased, resulting in an increase in the price of catalytic slurry. At the same time, due to the shortage of raw materials and poor quality of raw materials, the operating rate of some enterprises is low and the product quality is poor. That is, the domestic oil refining industry is facing the problems of LCO two and three ring aromatic hydrocarbon surplus and needle coke three to six ring aromatic hydrocarbon raw material shortage. If the aromatic components of LCO can be effectively utilized, the two and three ring aromatic hydrocarbons can be converted into three to six ring aromatic hydrocarbons, and then the needle coke and other high-end carbon materials can be produced, which will find a new way out for the efficient utilization of catalytic cracking diesel. SUMMARY
