Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of chemical industry, and in particular to a system and method for regenerating a coke drum in a catalytic cracking process. Background Art

[0002] Saturated hydrocarbon feedstocks with high paraffin content are ideal for catalytic cracking to produce light olefins. The carbon-carbon bonds of paraffins are relatively weak, and they are more likely to break after absorbing a large amount of heat energy during the cracking process, forming light olefins. In contrast, aromatic carbon in the feedstock will only undergo condensation reactions to form coke during the catalytic cracking process. These cokes will be deposited on the catalyst surface and burn during regeneration to release heat and carbon dioxide. As future environmental regulations will become increasingly stringent on carbon emissions, feedstocks with high aromatic carbon content will inevitably be restricted.

[0003] However, limiting the use of feedstocks with high aromatic carbon content means that the heat released during catalyst regeneration will not be sufficient to maintain the thermal balance of the reaction-regeneration system, and external heat supplementation is required to meet the needs of reaction and regeneration. Traditional methods of relying on fossil fuels for heat supplementation will increase carbon dioxide emissions. In order to meet this challenge, electric heating devices have become the optimal choice. Using electric heating devices to enhance heat transfer is one of the effective ways to increase the production of low-carbon olefins and reduce carbon emissions.

[0004] Invention patent application CN200510017540.1 discloses a method for heating or supplementing heat in a hydrocarbon processing device reaction system, in which coal powder with a particle size of 10-140 μm is continuously or intermittently added to a catalyst regenerator through an automatic catalyst replenishment system and / or a catalyst promoter addition system. This method will cause the regenerated flue gas to contain more solid impurity particles, increasing the difficulty of subsequent treatment of the regenerated flue gas, and the combustion of coal powder will additionally increase a large amount of carbon dioxide emissions.

[0005] The invention patent application CN201510833567.1 discloses a reheater, a catalytic cracking regeneration device and an external heat supplement method, in which the reheater is arranged next to the catalyst regenerator and connected to the catalyst through a catalyst delivery pipeline to form a cycle. Diesel or heavy oil with an auto-ignition point below 380°C is burned in the reheater to form uniform additional coke on the surface of the catalyst, which is then sent to the regenerator for complete combustion and heat release. However, the large amount of water vapor produced by the combustion of oil products will create a high-temperature hydrothermal environment and accelerate the deactivation of the regeneration agent. Moreover, the heat supplement caused by the combustion of oil products can easily cause the local temperature of the catalyst to be too high, exceeding 1000°C, resulting in the collapse of the regeneration agent pores and the breakage of particles, reducing the stability and life of the catalyst.

[0006] In addition, there are currently some internal and external heat supplement equipment, which are heat supplement equipment installed inside and outside the regenerator respectively. The internal heat supplement equipment is installed in the regenerator bed or the main air duct. Since the heater lacks shell protection, it is easy to break under the action of the main air or fluidized medium, and the regenerator bed or main air has a small heat capacity, and the heat exchange efficiency between the heater and the heater is low, which makes it difficult to ensure safety and cannot be used efficiently for a long period of time; the external heat supplement equipment is installed outside the regenerator, and a lifting riser structure is used to draw out the catalyst from a certain bed of the regenerator. After being heated by the external heat supplement equipment, it returns to the same bed. However, the bed density of the catalyst in the external heat supplement equipment is not considered to ensure sufficient heat capacity to achieve efficient heat transfer, and there is also a lack of circulation of the catalyst between the external heat supplement equipment and the regenerator, and it is impossible to ensure that the catalyst temperature of 700-800°C in the regenerator is achieved.

[0007] The bed regenerator is a commonly used dense phase fluidized bed regeneration method in catalytic cracking units. Its low operating linear velocity and high degree of back mixing make it close to a fully mixed flow operation state. When the coke content on the catalyst is low, the heat released by the combustion of coke is difficult to maintain the regeneration temperature, and it is necessary to supplement heat outside the regeneration unit. The main problems with current technologies are that they all increase the carbon dioxide emissions of the device, and the high-temperature hydrothermal environment accelerates the deactivation and breakage of the catalyst; or the electric heating equipment used does not take into account the catalyst bed density and catalyst circulation volume in the equipment, making it difficult to achieve the heating effect of the regenerator. In the current context, it is necessary to provide a more environmentally friendly and efficient heat supplement method to optimize the catalytic cracking process. Summary of the invention

[0067] Example 1

[0068] Using industrial production equipment, according to Figure 1 The external heat supplement device of the catalytic cracking process burnt drum regenerator shown in the figure uses electric energy to supplement heat. The external heat supplement device includes: an external heat supplement device 1 with an electric energy heating device 2 and a catalyst fluidizing distributor 9 arranged inside, a first catalyst delivery channel 5 and a second catalyst delivery channel 6 for delivering catalyst into and out of the external heat supplement device 1, a horizontal turning structure 7 at the outlet end of the first catalyst delivery channel 5 and a slide valve 8 on the second catalyst delivery channel 6, and a catalytic cracking process burnt drum regenerator 11.

The linear velocity of the fluidizing gas in the external heating device 1 is 0.25m / s; the operating temperature in the external heating device 1 is 750℃; the density of the catalyst bed is 400kg / m by adjusting the linear velocity of the fluidizing gas in the external heating device 1. 3 By adjusting the opening of the slide valve 8 on the second catalyst delivery channel 6, the circulation amount of the catalyst between the external heat supply device 1 and the catalytic cracking process coke tank regenerator 11 is 0.45 times the circulation amount of the catalyst in the catalytic cracking reverse regeneration system.

[0070] Taking a catalytic cracking unit for producing low-carbon olefins with a processing capacity of 200 tons / h of light hydrocarbons as an example, the coke yield is 3.20% (mass fraction), and the amount of coke burned in the regenerator per hour is 6.40 tons. The heat released by the combustion of coke is 2.30*10 8 kJ / h.

[0075] It can be seen from the data in Table 1 that Example 1 and the comparative example data in Table 1 are from invention patent CN201510833567.1. Compared with other current reheater methods (reheater, catalytic cracking regeneration device and external heat supply method. Invention patent CN201510833567.1), the use of an electrically powered reheater to externally heat the regenerated catalyst can enable the reheater to operate at a higher temperature, and no hydrothermal environment is generated in the reheater, no smoke is generated, and no additional carbon dioxide emissions are emitted.

[0076] Example 2

[0077] Using the experimental pilot plant, according to Figure 1 The external heat supplement device of the catalytic cracking process burnt drum regenerator shown in the figure uses electric energy to supplement heat. The external heat supplement device includes: an external heat supplement device 1 with an electric energy heating device 2 and a catalyst fluidizing distributor 9 arranged inside, a first catalyst delivery channel 5 and a second catalyst delivery channel 6 for delivering catalyst into and out of the external heat supplement device 1, a horizontal turning structure 7 at the outlet end of the first catalyst delivery channel 5 and a slide valve 8 on the second catalyst delivery channel 6, and a catalytic cracking process burnt drum regenerator 11.

[0078] The catalyst coming out of the catalytic cracking process coke tank regenerator 11 enters the external heating device 1 through the first catalyst delivery channel 5 and the horizontal turning structure 7 at the outlet end of the first catalyst delivery channel, and under the action of the catalyst fluidization distributor 9 in the external heating device 1, a uniformly distributed catalyst particle bed is formed to fully exchange heat with the electric power supply heating device 2. The linear velocity of the fluidizing gas in the external heating device 1 is 0.35m / s; the operating temperature in the external heating device 1 is 800℃; the density of the catalyst bed is 550kg / m by adjusting the linear velocity of the fluidizing gas in the external heating device 1. 3 By adjusting the opening of the slide valve 8 on the second catalyst delivery channel 6, the circulation amount of the catalyst between the external heat supply device 1 and the catalytic cracking process coke tank regenerator 11 is 0.1 times the circulation amount of the catalyst in the catalytic cracking reverse regeneration system.

[0079] Taking the pilot plant of catalytic cracking to produce light olefins with a processing capacity of 15 kg / h naphtha as an example, the coke yield is 3.68% (mass fraction), and the amount of coke burned in the regenerator per hour is 0.5595 kg. The heat released by the coke combustion is 2.01*10 4 kJ / h. The catalytic cracking reactor requires 4.14*10 4 kJ / h, in order to maintain the heat balance of the catalytic cracking device reaction-regeneration system, the heat supplement coefficient is preferably 2.0, and the total heat supplement of the external heat supplement device 1 = 2.0*(heat required by the catalytic cracking reactor - heat of coke combustion) = 4.26*104 kJ / h, the total power of the external heating device 1 is 11.83MW.

[0080] According to the total power of the external heating device 1, 10 electric heating tubes are set, and the power of each electric heating tube is 1.2MW. The electric heating tubes are connected in parallel and controlled separately by external control circuits to realize the heating of the electric heating tubes one by one, partially or completely. Each electric heating tube 4 contains an electric heating component 42, a temperature sensor and an over-temperature protection component 44. The electric heating component is required to withstand 1400°C; in order to solve the problem of wear on the outer surface of the electric heating tube 4 under high temperature and catalyst fluidization state, the outside of the electric heating tube 4 is a ceramic heating tube shell 41; the ceramic shell 41 outside the electric heating tube 4 can be provided with fins 43 (the spiral angle is 40°, and the width is 0.20 times the diameter of the heating tube shell 41) to increase the disturbance of the catalyst particles in the heater and the heat transfer area, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the electric power heating device.

[0081] In view of the fact that catalytic cracking is a deep catalytic cracking reaction mode, in order to compare the effect of Example 2 on the catalyst and product yield, other current heat supplementation methods (a catalyst regeneration method and equipment for supplementing the heat of a catalytic cracking unit. Invention patent CN201110272641.9) are selected. The data of the comparative examples in Table 2-4 are from the invention patent CN201110272641.9. Example 2 was used in a pilot plant for catalytic cracking of light olefins with a processing capacity of 15kg / h naphtha for testing, and naphtha was also used as the catalytic cracking raw material. The raw material properties are shown in Table 2. Compared with the comparative example, the properties of the raw material of Example 2 are slightly worse, which is manifested in a slightly lower content of paraffins and a higher content of aromatics.

[0084] Table 3 is a comparison of catalyst properties. Since no hydrothermal environment is generated in the supplementary heat vessel, structural deactivation of the catalyst can be avoided even under overheating conditions. Therefore, the pore volume and specific surface area of ​​the catalyst in Example 2 are significantly increased compared with those in the comparative example, and the proportion of catalyst particles smaller than 40 um is significantly reduced, which is beneficial to improving the effect of the catalytic cracking reaction.

The regenerated catalyst is heated by electric energy supply instead of adding fuel oil combustion to supplement heat in the comparative example, and no additional carbon dioxide emissions are emitted. The temperature of the catalyst in the regenerator can be quickly and accurately controlled by adjusting the current or voltage, so that the regeneration temperature is significantly increased.
