Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a processing method, and more specifically to a chemical crude isopentene processing method, belonging to the field of petrochemical industry. Background Art
[0002] Crude isopentene is a byproduct of the production process of polymerization-grade isoprene. When the cracking C5 separation unit produces 1 ton of polymerization-grade isoprene, it can produce about 1.8 tons of crude isopentene as a byproduct. At present, crude isopentene is mainly used in gasoline, and less than 5% enters some fine chemical plants for secondary processing. When it is added to gasoline, it cannot be added too much because it is rich in olefins and affects the saturated vapor pressure of gasoline. Therefore, it will cause low utilization rate and poor economic benefits. In addition, fine chemical plants can only extract a small part of the crude isopentene to synthesize the raw materials of petroleum resin. Therefore, it also has problems such as low utilization rate and poor economic benefits. In recent years, with the gradual increase in the production of refining and chemical projects, how to increase the value of the C5 olefin components produced by chemical plants has become a very valuable research topic.

[0021] Step 3) firstly mix the coking naphtha with the crude isopentene obtained from the upper end of the residual carbon five water washing tower (the flow rate of the crude isopentene is not higher than 15% of the total feed flow rate), and then enter the diolefin reactor (naphtha hydrogenation unit) together with the pressurized circulating hydrogen to saturate the diolefins in the coking naphtha to obtain the diolefin-saturated coking naphtha; the straight-run naphtha from the atmospheric and vacuum device enters the pre-fractionation tower (straight-run naphtha fractionation tower) for separation, and the top oil is removed through the pre-fractionation tower and the light naphtha removed is sent as the raw material of the ethylene cracking unit through the top pipeline of the pre-fractionation tower; a preferred parameter is that the coking naphtha feed is 31 t / h, the crude isopentene feed is 10 t / h, and the hydrogenation reactor feed is 342 t / h;

[0028]
[0029]
[0030] The present application can realize the blending of crude isopentene in a naphtha hydrogenation unit, wherein the crude isopentene has an olefin content of 40%, a diolefin value of 0.7 gI / 100g, and the nitrogen content and sulfur content meet the feed requirements. At present, conventional technology cannot realize the blending of crude isopentene in a naphtha hydrogenation unit. If the naphtha hydrogenation unit is directly used for blending, it is impossible to cope with the reaction exotherm and coking and ensure that the refined naphtha produced by the original unit is qualified.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, coker naphtha and straight-run naphtha are used as raw materials. A diolefin reactor is set up for the coker naphtha. The coker naphtha after diolefin saturation is mixed with the straight-run naphtha after decapping and enters the pre-hydrogenation reactor for desulfurization and denitrogenation. The straight-run naphtha adopts a process flow of first fractionation and then hydrogenation, and the product fractionation part adopts a process flow of first stripping and then fractionation. Process description: The straight-run naphtha from the atmospheric and vacuum device enters the straight-run naphtha fractionation tower for separation, and the light naphtha product is sent out as the raw material of the ethylene cracking unit. The straight-run heavy naphtha is obtained at the bottom of the fractionation tower. After mixing with the pressurized circulating hydrogen, it enters the hydrogenation reactor of the naphtha hydrogenation unit for refining. The hydrogenated heavy naphtha produced enters the reforming unit as the raw material for reforming. Coker naphtha and pressurized circulating hydrogen enter the diolefin reactor of the naphtha hydrogenation unit. First, the diolefins in the coker naphtha are saturated. Then, the reaction product and the above-mentioned straight-run heavy naphtha enter the hydrogenation reactor of the naphtha hydrogenation unit. Under the action of the catalyst, impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, chlorine and metal are removed to obtain hydrogenated naphtha. The hydrogenated naphtha enters the fractionation tower for separation. The light naphtha is used as the raw material of the ethylene cracking unit, and the refined naphtha at the bottom of the tower is sent to the continuous reforming unit as the raw material. After reaction and fractionation, gas, light naphtha and heavy naphtha are separated respectively (see Table 3 for the main operating conditions).

[0033]
[0034] After blending crude isopentene, the highest diene value in the monitored feed was 3.9gI / 100g, which was lower than the designed feed index ≤8gI / 100g. There was no significant change in the temperature rise of dienes and pre-hydrogenation main reaction. After hydrofining, the light naphtha production increased by 7t / h. Table 4 shows the light naphtha before blending, and Table 5 shows the composition changes after blending.

[0039] After the naphtha hydrogenation unit blended crude isopentene, the C5 component of light naphtha increased from 82.1% to 92.67%, indicating that crude isopentene was converted into light naphtha after reaction and separation, becoming a high-quality ethylene cracking raw material, as shown in Table 6.

[0043] The benefit calculation of the technical solution of this application:
[0044] Crude isopentene is used as a gasoline blending component and sold directly: 10t / h*5420 yuan / ton*24h=1.3008 million yuan / d.
[0045] Crude isopentene passes through naphtha hydrogenation unit: benefit increment 603180-593280=19580 yuan / d
[0046] The processing fee of crude isopentene through naphtha hydrogenation unit is about 51 yuan / ton, so the comprehensive benefit is: 603180-593280-10*24*51=7340 yuan / d.
[0047] Comprehensively comparing the technical solutions of this application, the annual economic benefit can reach 7340*365d=2.6791 million yuan.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and there are many variations. All variations that can be directly derived or associated with the content disclosed by ordinary technicians in this field should be considered as the protection scope of the present invention.
