Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of xylene isomerization, and in particular to a liquid phase xylene isomerization method, a catalyst for liquid phase non-hydrogen xylene isomerization reaction and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Paraxylene (PX) is an important chemical raw material, mainly used to produce terephthalic acid, ethylene glycol terephthalate, butanediol esters and other products. In addition, it can also be used in coatings, dyes, pesticides and medicines. With the continuous development of these industries in my country, the demand for PX has grown rapidly. In order to meet market needs, the construction scale of aromatics complex units mainly producing PX, which consists of technical units including C8 aromatics isomerization, xylene distillation and adsorption or crystallization separation, has been continuously expanded. Among them, the xylene isomerization unit technology for increasing the production of PX is the key means to convert ethylbenzene, meta-xylene and o-xylene into PX. Under normal circumstances, the aromatics complex uses traditional crystallization or molecular sieve adsorption to separate pure para-xylene, and the deheptane tower and the xylene tower remove a small amount of light non-aromatics, benzene, toluene and C9+ heavy aromatics respectively. The remaining C8 aromatic materials can be used as isomerization raw materials. After the xylene isomerization unit, the three xylene isomers in the C8 aromatics can reach or approach the thermodynamic equilibrium composition, namely 52-54% by mass of meta-xylene, 23-24% by mass of para-xylene and 23-24% by mass of ortho-xylene, and are recycled back to the separation unit to purify para-xylene. However, ethylbenzene in the C8 aromatics material requires a higher isomerization temperature and conditions such as hydrogenation to be converted into xylene or deethylated to generate benzene. In recent years, with the continuous advancement of combined processes, there are a variety of means to make the mixed C8 aromatics of the isomerization feed substantially free of ethylbenzene, so that it is possible to catalyze the isomerization of ortho-xylene and meta-xylene at a lower temperature and in a liquid phase without hydrogenation or relying only on dissolved hydrogen to maintain the stability of the catalyst, thereby greatly reducing the energy consumption and material consumption of PX production.

[0003] Taking into account the process design and power consumption of the device, selecting non-hydrogen liquid phase conditions for the isomerization reaction unit is a technical solution with unique advantages.

[0004] CN108423688A discloses a method for synthesizing a ZSM-12 molecular sieve, which can be used for acid-catalyzed reactions such as methane aromatization, methanol conversion, alkane dehydrogenation to olefins, olefin disproportionation, xylene isomerization, and toluene alkylation.

[0005] In patent US20170297977A1, the molecular sieve used in the liquid phase non-hydrogenated xylene isomerization catalyst is UZM-54, preferably 70% molecular sieve content, and the binder is alumina, and no metal loading is required. Under non-hydrogenated conditions, the xylene isomerization reaction can reach thermodynamic equilibrium.

[0006] US20110263918 A1 introduces a xylene isomerization process, which uses HZSM-5 or MCM-49 as a catalyst for the acidic component. Under the conditions of a temperature below 295°C and a pressure that ensures that the reactants are liquid, a xylene component with a composition close to equilibrium can be obtained. The process can be operated continuously when the feed only contains ppm-level dissolved hydrogen. It can also be cyclically applied to non-hydrogen-containing feeds, but the catalyst needs to be periodically regenerated with low-ppm-level hydrogen.

[0007] The document "Study on the Catalyst for Liquid-Phase Isomerization of Xylene" (Petrochemical Industry, Vol. 7, No. 3, 1978) studied the performance of liquid-phase isomerization of xylene on a ZSM-5 catalyst synthesized from water glass, aluminum sulfate, sulfuric acid and ethylamine. The experimental results showed that the ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst has high activity and selectivity for liquid-phase isomerization of xylene and is applicable to mixed xylene feedstocks containing ethylbenzene.

[0008] In the above patents and documents, the liquid phase xylene isomerization reaction has high activity, but requires a trace amount of dissolved hydrogen to maintain catalyst stability, and at the same time as achieving high activity, it usually means a decrease in reaction selectivity. How to carry out the liquid phase xylene isomerization reaction under the conditions of reducing energy consumption and catalyst cost, and what kind of xylene isomerization catalyst to use in the reaction to have both high isomerization activity of p-xylene and xylene yield are technical problems that need to be solved urgently.

[0043] The present application is further described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Through these descriptions, the characteristics and advantages of the present application will become clearer and more specific.

[0044] The word "exemplary" is used exclusively herein to mean "serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration." Any embodiment described herein as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. Although various aspects of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless otherwise noted.

[0045] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0046] In a first aspect, the present invention relates to a liquid phase xylene isomerization method, the liquid phase xylene isomerization method comprising:

[0047] The alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon is brought into contact with a catalyst for a liquid-phase non-hydrogenated xylene isomerization reaction under a reaction pressure that maintains the liquid state to carry out an isomerization reaction;

[0048] Wherein, the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons include m-xylene, o-xylene, ethylbenzene and optionally p-xylene; the catalyst includes 10-80% hydrogen-type silica-alumina molecular sieve and 20-90% binder, based on the total mass of the catalyst;

[0049] The hydrogen-type silicon-aluminum molecular sieve includes the following components in proportion based on the total mass of the hydrogen-type silicon-aluminum molecular sieve:

[0050] Beta molecular sieve 10~80%,

[0051] ZSM-5 molecular sieve 10~80%,

[0052] ZSM-12 molecular sieve 10~80%.

[0053] It should be noted that, keeping the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons under a reaction pressure that keeps them in a liquid state means adjusting the pressure of the reaction system under different temperatures or different alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon compositions to keep the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons in a liquid state; and carrying out the catalytic reaction under a reaction pressure that keeps the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons in a liquid state. Therefore, the isomerization method of the present invention is a liquid phase xylene isomerization method. Optional p-xylene means that the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons may not contain p-xylene, or may contain p-xylene in any proportion.

[0054] In the liquid-phase xylene isomerization method of the present invention, the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon is brought into contact with a liquid-phase non-hydrogenated xylene isomerization reaction catalyst to carry out an isomerization reaction.

[0055] According to a specific embodiment of the liquid phase xylene isomerization method according to the first aspect of the present invention, the conditions of the isomerization reaction include:

[0056] The reaction temperature is 240-310°C, and the weight hourly space velocity is 1-10h -1 .

[0057] It should be noted that by controlling the temperature and weight hourly space velocity of the isomerization reaction as above, when the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon contacts the catalyst for the liquid phase non-hydrogenated xylene isomerization reaction for isomerization reaction, the catalyst can exhibit better catalytic activity, so that the isomerization activity and xylene yield are further improved.

[0064] It should be noted that the ZSM-12 molecular sieve belongs to the mordenite class, has an MTW-type structure, and has a one-dimensional linear non-intersecting channel composed of twelve-membered rings. In the catalyst of the present invention, a mixture of Beta molecular sieve, ZSM-5 molecular sieve and ZSM-12 molecular sieve is used as an active component, and the three molecular sieves are compounded according to the above ratio, so that the catalyst has very good catalytic activity when performing xylene isomerization, and can effectively increase the production of paraxylene. The catalyst of the present invention is used for liquid-phase xylene isomerization reaction. Compared with the gas-phase xylene isomerization reaction, the catalyst of the present invention does not contain precious metals and has a lower cost; it can also exert good catalytic activity in the absence of hydrogen, and while obtaining a higher isomerization activity and xylene yield, the reaction temperature is lower and the energy consumption is greatly reduced.

[0065] In a more preferred embodiment, in the total mass of the hydrogen-type silicon-aluminum molecular sieve, the mass proportion of Beta molecular sieve can be 13%-75%, specifically 14%, 20%, 30%, 45%, 58%, 60%, 72%, etc.; the mass proportion of ZSM-5 molecular sieve can be 13%-45%, specifically 14%, 14.5%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 43%, etc.; the mass proportion of ZSM-12 molecular sieve can be 13%-45%, specifically 14%, 14.5%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 43%, etc. In the catalyst for the liquid phase xylene isomerization reaction, the mass proportion of hydrogen-type silicon-aluminum molecular sieve can be 60-80%, specifically 65%, 70%, 75%, etc., and the mass proportion of binder can be 20%-40%, specifically 25%, 30%, 35%, etc. In this preferred embodiment, the activity of the catalyst is further improved, and the isomerization activity and the xylene yield can be further improved.

[0066] According to a specific implementation of the catalyst according to the second aspect of the present invention, the binder is aluminum oxide.

[0067] In a third aspect, the present invention relates to a method for preparing the catalyst for the liquid-phase non-hydrogen xylene isomerization reaction described in the second aspect, the preparation method comprising the following steps:

[0071] (4) mixing the metal cation type Beta molecular sieve, the metal cation type ZSM-5 molecular sieve and the metal cation type ZSM-12 molecular sieve with a binder, adding an inorganic acid solution for kneading, and extruding into strips to obtain a strip;

[0072] The strips are subjected to a first drying, pelletizing and a first roasting to obtain pellets;

[0073] The granules are contacted with an ammonium salt solution to carry out ion exchange, washing, second drying and second calcination to obtain the liquid-phase non-hydrogenated xylene isomerization reaction catalyst.

After preparing three sodium-type molecular sieves, for example, by steps (1) to (3), the three sodium-type molecular sieves can be washed and dried, and then the steps of molding, ion exchange and the like in step (4) are performed to prepare the catalyst for the liquid-phase non-hydrogen xylene isomerization reaction. The drying temperature can be 100 to 140° C., and the time can be 8 to 24 hours. The three types of molecular sieves, for example, Na-type molecular sieves prepared in steps (1) to (3) are contacted with an ammonium salt solution for ion exchange and calcined in step (4). In the obtained finished catalyst, the molecular sieve is a hydrogen-type molecular sieve.

[0075] The preparation method of the present invention is based on the three molecular sieves prepared in steps (1) to (3) to prepare catalysts. It does not require the loading (such as impregnation) of precious metals and does not require activation and reduction steps. That is, it can prepare a liquid-phase non-hydrogen xylene isomerization reaction catalyst that can show good catalytic activity in the absence of hydrogen, has high isomerization activity and xylene yield; while the cost is lower, the catalyst preparation process is simplified, the preparation cycle is shortened, and the catalyst preparation efficiency is improved.

When the prepared catalyst is used for liquid-phase xylene isomerization reaction, the catalytic activity is further improved.

[0088] According to another specific embodiment of the preparation method described in the third aspect of the present invention, the first silicon source in step (1), the second silicon source in step (2), and the third silicon source in step (3) are each independently selected from liquid silica sol and / or solid silica gel;

[0094] Wherein, N is a nitrogen atom, R is selected from an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and X - selected from hydroxide ions and / or halogen anions;

[0095] The halogen anion is selected from chloride ion and / or bromide ion;

[0096] In step (1), R of the first template is preferably ethyl; and / or,

[0097] In step (2), R of the second template is preferably a propyl group; and / or,

[0099] It should be noted that the first template in step (1), the second template in step (2) and the third template in step (3) are independently selected from the quaternary ammonium salt or quaternary ammonium base as described above, so that metal cations with better stability and catalytic activity can be prepared, such as sodium-type Beta molecular sieve, ZSM-5 molecular sieve and ZSM-12 molecular sieve. Continuing through the steps of shaping, ammonium ion exchange and roasting in step (4), the sodium-type molecular sieve is converted into an H-type molecular sieve and then shaped and roasted, so as to prepare a catalyst for liquid-phase xylene isomerization reaction with significantly improved isomerization activity.

[0100] According to another specific implementation of the preparation method according to the third aspect of the present invention, the conditions for the first crystallization in step (1) include:

Based on these three molecular sieves, after forming, ammonium ion exchange and roasting in step (4), the three H-type molecular sieves in the prepared finished catalyst synergistically show good catalytic activity.

After the ion exchange is completed, dry at a temperature of 100 to 140°C for 4 to 24 hours. Then roast in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 520°C to 550°C for 2 to 24 hours; roasting can be carried out in a static atmosphere without air flow, or at a volume space velocity of 50 to 500h / s. -1 The calcined catalyst does not need to be impregnated with metal and activated and reduced to obtain the finished catalyst of the present invention.
