Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of petrochemical industry, and in particular, to a method and system for producing chemical raw materials by direct catalytic cracking of crude oil with improved thermal balance. Background Art

[0002] Ethylene, propylene and BTX (benzene-toluene-xylene) are important basic organic chemical raw materials, which can be used to produce a variety of organic chemical products, including many important high-end organic chemicals, which are closely related to people's food, clothing, housing and transportation. The existing technical route for producing propylene and BTX from petroleum is developed on the basis of the traditional petroleum refining process that mainly produces oil products. There are problems such as long production process, low chemical yield and insignificant economic benefits. The technical measure to solve this problem is to develop key core technologies that mainly produce chemicals and can direct the conversion of crude oil hydrocarbon molecules into chemicals. Therefore, in recent years, petrochemical companies at home and abroad have been actively exploring the technical route of directly producing chemicals from crude oil, so as to make the processing path from crude oil to low-carbon olefins and BTX and other chemicals shorter, with lower energy consumption and smaller investment.

[0003] WO2005113722A3 and CN200780047937.2 disclose a process for producing crude oil directly into chemicals, wherein the crude oil directly enters a steam cracking furnace, and is flash evaporated to separate light components and heavy components, the light components (gaseous components) enter the steam cracking furnace for cracking, and the heavy components (liquid components) are used as refinery raw materials.

[0004] CN 201380015214.X discloses a process for producing olefins and aromatics from crude oil by integrating hydroprocessing, steam cracking and catalytic cracking processes. After the crude oil is hydroprocessed, impurities such as sulfur and high-boiling substances are removed, and the hydrogenated products are separated by distillation. The light components enter the steam cracking unit, and the heavy components are subjected to the catalytic cracking unit to maximize the production of olefins.

[0005] CN201780078199.1 discloses a method and system for converting crude oil into petrochemicals and fuel products by integrating steam cracking and fluid catalytic cracking. Crude oil is separated into straight-run naphtha and lighter component fractions, one or more intermediate distillate fractions, and atmospheric residue fractions. Vacuum distillate oil is then separated from the atmospheric residue fraction as a catalytic cracking feedstock. The light fraction is hydrogenated and used as naphtha and diesel fuel oil.

[0006] The above crude oil processing routes all use steam cracking as the main technical means to produce light olefins. Due to the high energy consumption of steam cracking technology and the poor flexibility of product solutions, researchers are also actively developing technical solutions for producing light olefins by catalytic cracking.

[0007] The method for preparing low-carbon olefins and aromatics by catalytic cracking of crude oil disclosed in CN20181189551.1 and CN201811190135.3 comprises the following steps: after desalting and dehydrating the crude oil, the crude oil is divided into light and heavy components, and the light component, i.e., light feed, and the heavy component, i.e., heavy feed, are respectively placed in two catalytic cracking reactors, and are contacted with a high-temperature catalyst under a steam atmosphere to react to produce low-carbon olefins and aromatics. Alternatively, the light component and the heavy component react in different reaction zones of the same reactor.

[0008] CN 201810523356.1 discloses a method for processing a whole fraction of crude oil. The method separates the whole fraction of crude oil to obtain light distillate oil, middle distillate oil and heavy distillate oil. The middle distillate oil and the heavy distillate oil are reacted in a first riser, and the light distillate oil is reacted in a fluidized bed reactor connected in series with the riser. The reaction conditions in the reactor vary according to the properties of the raw materials.

[0009] Existing crude oil catalytic cracking technologies all use crude oil distillation to separate fractions, and still do not avoid the crude oil flash distillation process, failing to achieve a true crude oil direct catalytic cracking technology route. Summary of the invention

[0169] The reduced hot regenerated catalyst in the first regeneration inclined tube 503 enters the lower part of the first reactor, contacts the existing oil-agent mixture in the reactor and moves upward. The preheated crude oil and atomized steam are injected into the first reactor through the first feed pipeline 102, with a water-oil weight ratio of 0.2:1, and are mixed and contacted with the existing catalyst in the catalytic cracking reactor. The catalytic cracking reaction is carried out in the process of passing through the first reactor and the second reactor from bottom to top. The obtained catalyst with coke and the reaction oil and gas enter the oil-agent separation device 204 such as a cyclone separator for gas-solid separation. The reaction oil and gas obtained by separation are led out of the device through the gas collecting chamber 205 and the large oil and gas pipe 206, and enter the subsequent separation system; the separated catalyst with coke enters the lower part of the settler 200, and enters the regenerator 400 through the waiting inclined tube 203.

The C4 fraction from the separation system enters the lower part of the first feed section through the second feed pipeline 303, and the light distillate oil enters the lower part of the second feed section through the third feed pipeline 304. The water-oil weight ratio is 0.2:1, contacts with the mixed catalyst and moves upward, and fully reacts in the main reaction section. The reaction product and the catalyst enter the second reactor through the outlet section.

[0171] The catalyst with coke enters the regenerator and undergoes a complete combustion reaction when in contact with air. The regenerated catalyst enters the reducer and undergoes a reduction activation reaction when in contact with dry gas. The reduced regenerated catalyst is divided into two parts. One part of the catalyst returns to the first reactor via the first regeneration inclined tube 503 for recycling, and another part of the regenerated catalyst returns to the third reactor via the second regeneration inclined tube 502 for recycling.

[0173] Comparative Example 1

[0174] The crude oil and DMMC-1 catalyst shown in Table 1 were used to conduct the test on a medium-sized device. The reactors were a conventional riser reactor (first reactor) connected in series with a fluidized bed reactor (second reactor), and a third reactor connected to the second reactor. The preheated crude oil entered the riser reaction zone and the fluidized bed reactor in turn to contact with the catalytic cracking catalyst for catalytic cracking reaction. After the reaction, the logistics entered the subsequent oil agent separation device and product separation equipment. The separated C4 fraction and light gasoline returned to the bottom of the third reactor to contact with the regenerated catalyst for reaction. The oil agent mixture generated by the reaction entered the second reactor; the separated catalyst to be regenerated entered the lower part of the regenerator and contacted with the air distributed into the regenerator through the main air distributor to cause a scorching reaction. The fuel oil was injected into the catalyst dense phase bed layer. The fuel oil was scorched after contacting the high-temperature air and released heat; the regenerated catalyst returned to the reactor for recycling. The operating conditions and product distribution are listed in Tables 2 and 3.

[0175] It can be seen from the results in Table 2 that the ethylene yield of this comparative example is only 5.72% by weight, the propylene yield is only 21.22% by weight, and the total yield of ethylene, propylene and light aromatics is 37.29%.
