Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of adsorption separation, and in particular to a method for adsorption separation of normal alkanes in C10-C25 fraction oil. Background Art
[0002] C10-C13 normal alkanes are mainly found in kerosene fractions, while C14-C25 normal alkanes are mainly found in diesel fractions. C10-C13 normal alkanes are the main components of light liquid wax, which are mainly used to produce linear alkylbenzenes and fatty alcohols. C14-C20 normal alkanes are the main components of heavy liquid wax, which can be used to produce high value-added products such as petroleum grease plasticizers, chlorinated paraffins, higher fatty alcohols, beauty cosmetics, and synthetic petroleum proteins. Normal alkanes above C20 are the main components of solid paraffin wax. Paraffin wax with high purity normal alkanes can be used as latent heat storage materials and is widely used in various fields such as aviation, aerospace, microelectronics and other high-tech systems, as well as house energy conservation. The dewaxed oil remaining after separating normal alkanes can be used as kerosene or diesel with a low freezing point. Therefore, the separation of normal alkanes and non-normal alkanes in kerosene and diesel fractions has important practical significance.
[0003] Kerosene and diesel have a wide distillation range, and the boiling point difference between isomers is very small, so it is impossible to separate the liquid wax by distillation. The effective pore size of 5A molecular sieve is about 0.51nm, and normal alkanes with a diameter less than 0.50nm can enter, while isoalkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics with a diameter greater than 0.51nm are excluded from the pores. Therefore, adsorption separation of 5A molecular sieve is an effective method for extracting liquid wax.
[0004] The Chinese industry standard NB / SH / T 0417-2013 stipulates that the aromatic content in light liquid wax is less than 0.4% by mass and the purity of normal alkanes is greater than 98.5% by mass. Aromatic molecules have a large diameter and will not enter the micropores of the 5A molecular sieve, but due to the strong polarity of aromatics, a small amount of adsorption will occur on the surface of the adsorbent, which makes it difficult to reduce the aromatic content of normal alkanes. With the improvement of environmental protection requirements, the restrictions on aromatics in normal alkanes products may become more stringent in the future.
[0005] Normal alkanes with different carbon numbers can be adsorbed by 5A molecular sieve. However, as the carbon number increases to more than 11, the mass transfer rate of normal alkanes has a significant downward trend, which makes it difficult to improve the recovery rate of high carbon number normal alkanes.
[0006] CN91101507.8 discloses a method for improving the yield of long-chain normal alkanes, which uses 5A molecular sieve adsorbent, C5-C8 normal alkanes as desorbents, and liquid phase simulated moving bed technology to perform adsorption separation on C10-C35 normal alkanes. The method is characterized in that low-carbon non-linear hydrocarbons are injected before or when the raw materials are fed to reduce the concentration of the desorbent in the adsorbent bed, thereby reducing the competitive adsorption between the desorbent and the long-chain normal alkanes in the raw materials and improving the yield of the latter. The low-carbon non-linear hydrocarbon flow introduced by the invention requires the addition of a fractionation device for recycling, which will increase investment and energy consumption.
[0007] CN201610825766.2 provides a method for adsorbing and separating normal alkanes from C8-C22 normal alkanes and isoalkanes, wherein the raw materials are subjected to adsorption separation at one time through the first adsorption separation zone, the second adsorption separation zone and the third adsorption separation zone, wherein the first adsorption separation zone is filled with 5A molecular sieves, which mainly adsorb C8-C14 normal alkanes, the second adsorption separation zone is filled with HY molecular sieves, which mainly adsorb C15-C18 normal alkanes, and the third separation zone is filled with 13X molecular sieves, which mainly adsorb C19-C22 normal alkanes. The adsorption strength of HY molecular sieves and 13X molecular sieves for aromatics is much greater than that for alkanes, so this method is not suitable for separating raw materials containing aromatics.

[0058] Description of Reference Numerals
[0059] 101-112 adsorption column DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0060] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0061] The present disclosure provides a method for adsorbing and separating normal alkanes in C10-C25 distillate oil, the method comprising the following steps:
[0062] S1, contacting the C10-C25 fraction oil with an adsorbent for the first time to obtain a material to be desorbed comprising C10-C25 normal alkanes and the adsorbent, and a raffinate comprising C10-C25 isoalkanes, C10-C25 cycloalkanes, C10-C25 aromatics and a desorbent;
[0063] S2, bringing the desorbent into second contact with the material to be desorbed to obtain an extract containing C10-C25 normal alkanes and the desorbent;
[0064] The C10-C25 distillate oil includes C10-C25 normal alkanes, C10-C25 isoalkanes, C10-C25 cycloalkanes and C10-C25 aromatics;
[0065] The desorbent includes C5-C8 normal alkanes, C6-C8 aromatic hydrocarbons and optionally C5-C8 isoalkanes;
[0066] The particle size of the adsorbent is 0.3-0.6 mm. The adsorbent includes 5A molecular sieve, and the grain size of the 5A molecular sieve is 0.2-0.8 μm.
[0067] In the present disclosure, in step S1, the desorbent in the raffinate does not originate from the first contact, but from the upstream of the simulated moving bed, and may also originate from the desorbent in the downstream adsorbent bed.
[0068] In the present disclosure, an adsorbent comprising a 5A molecular sieve having specific properties is used to perform adsorption separation of normal alkanes in C10-C25 fraction oil. The 5A molecular sieve has a relatively small crystal size, which can significantly increase the intracrystalline diffusion rate of long-chain normal alkanes. The adsorbent also has a relatively small particle size, which can significantly increase the external diffusion rate of long-chain normal alkanes, thereby improving the adsorption efficiency.
[0069] In order to further improve the mass transfer rate of high carbon number normal alkanes, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the grain size of the 5A molecular sieve is 0.2-0.7 μm, and the above grain size can increase the intracrystalline diffusion rate of normal alkanes.
[0070] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, before adsorption separation, the C10-C25 fraction oil is hydrotreated to saturate the olefins therein to convert them into alkanes, and the sulfur-containing compounds and nitrogen-containing compounds therein need to be removed to avoid poisoning the adsorbent.
[0071] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the water content of the adsorbent is less than 3 weight %, wherein "the water content of the adsorbent" refers to the content of water relative to the total weight of the adsorbent; when the water content of the adsorbent is within the range of the present disclosure, a higher adsorption amount of normal alkanes can be obtained.
[0072] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, in the 5A molecular sieve, Ca 2+ The exchange degree is 67-97%, which means that Ca 2+ The percentage of exchangeable cation sites in the molecular sieve occupied by ions. The specific measurement method includes: using X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) to analyze the mass fraction of Na2O and CaO in the adsorbent, recorded as m N and m C , then Ca 2+ Degree of ion exchange = m C / M C / (m C / M C +m N / M N ). N and M C are the molar masses of Na2O and CaO respectively.
[0073] In the present disclosure, the C5-C8 normal alkanes in the desorbent can have a better desorption effect on the C10-C25 normal alkanes in the C10-C25 distillate oil, especially the C14-C25 normal alkanes, and can not affect the adsorption of C10-C25 normal alkanes. Using it as a desorbent can obtain a higher recovery rate of normal alkanes; and C6-C8 aromatic hydrocarbons are also added to the desorbent of the present disclosure, which can effectively elute the C10-C25 aromatic hydrocarbons adsorbed on the surface of the adsorbent and improve the product purity; C5-C8 isoparaffins can adjust the adsorption strength and desorption capacity of the desorbent.
[0074] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, relative to the total volume of the desorbent, the content of normal alkanes of C5-C8 is 50-95% by volume, the content of aromatic hydrocarbons of C6-C8 is 5-20% by volume, and the content of isoalkanes of C5-C8 is 0-30% by volume; wherein, the normal alkanes of C5-C8 may include, for example, normal hexane (nC6), normal heptane (nC7), etc., the isoalkanes of C5-C8 may include, for example, isooctane (iC8), etc., and the aromatic hydrocarbons of C6-C8 may include, for example, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, etc.
[0075] In order to take into account both high adsorption capacity and mass transfer diffusion of long-chain normal alkanes, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the temperatures of the first contact and the second contact are 185-230°C, and the pressures are 1.0-2.5MPa, respectively. The above-mentioned condition range can ensure that the logistics is in liquid phase at the adsorption temperature and can ensure the mass transfer diffusion of long-chain normal alkanes.
[0076] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a liquid phase simulated moving bed process is used to adsorb and separate normal alkanes in C10-C25 distillate oil, and the simulated moving bed comprises 12-24 adsorbent beds;
[0077] Step S1 comprises: contacting the C10-C25 fraction oil with the adsorbent bed in the first step to obtain a raffinate containing C10-C25 isoalkanes, C10-C25 cycloalkanes, C10-C25 aromatics and a desorbent, and an adsorbent bed adsorbing C10-C25 normal alkanes as a material to be desorbed;
[0078] Step S2 includes: bringing the desorbent into contact with the material to be desorbed in the second step to obtain an extract.
[0079] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method further includes: separating the extract to obtain C10-C25 normal alkanes and a desorbent; the separation method is conventional in the art, such as fractional distillation, and the separated desorbent can be recycled, and in the material containing C10-C25 normal alkanes obtained by fractionation, the content of C10-C25 normal alkanes is more than 99.5% by weight, and the content of aromatics is less than 0.1% by weight.
[0080] In order to further reduce the aromatic content in the normal alkane product, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method comprises: subjecting the material containing C10-C25 normal alkanes obtained by separation of the extract to a third contact with an X-type molecular sieve and / or a Y-type molecular sieve; the temperature of the third contact is 100-120°C, the pressure is 0.5-1.5MPa, and the volume space velocity is 0.5-5h -1 The water content of the X-type molecular sieve and the Y-type molecular sieve is less than 5% by weight, respectively. There are at least two adsorption towers for the above treatment, including adsorption and regeneration, which are used alternately. After the third treatment, the aromatic content of C10-C25 in the normal alkane product is less than 0.01% by weight.
[0081] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method further comprises: separating the raffinate to obtain C10-C25 isoalkanes, C10-C25 cycloalkanes, C10-C25 aromatics and a desorbent, wherein the separated desorbent can be recycled; the separation method is conventional in the art, such as fractional distillation.
[0082] The method disclosed in the present invention can be used for both intermittent operation and continuous operation. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a liquid phase simulated moving bed process is used to adsorb and separate normal alkanes in C10-C25 distillate oil, and the simulated moving bed contains 12-24 adsorbent beds. In order to realize the continuous operation of the industrial separation device, the adsorption separation process is carried out in a simulated moving bed device having multiple adsorbent beds. The adsorbent is loaded in a column container in the form of a fixed bed. The adsorbent bed can be multiple adsorption columns connected in series, or it can be divided into multiple adsorbent beds by a screen or grid inside an adsorption tower. The liquid flow flows from top to bottom between the adsorbent beds. The several logistics entering or leaving the adsorbent bed divide the adsorbent into at least four areas: adsorption zone, purification zone, desorption zone and isolation zone for adsorption separation operation. The normal alkanes in C10-C25 distillate oil undergo adsorption, purification and desorption processes in different areas. Figure 1As shown, in the liquid phase simulated moving bed device, the adsorbent bed between the raw material to be separated entering the simulated moving bed adsorption tower and the raffinate flow leaving the adsorption tower is the adsorption zone, the raw material flow to be separated containing normal alkanes enters the adsorption chamber from the upstream of the adsorption zone, contacts with the adsorbent, and the C10-C25 normal alkanes therein are adsorbed into the crystal pores of the 5A molecular sieve, and the isoalkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics that are not adsorbed flow out of the adsorbent bed from the downstream of the adsorption zone together with part of the desorbent to form the raffinate flow; the area between the extracted liquid flow leaving the adsorption tower and the raw material flow to be separated entering the adsorption tower is called the purification zone, the logistics from top to bottom in this zone flushes the non-normal alkanes outside the adsorbent micropores to the downstream, and the extracted liquid flow rich in C10-C25 normal alkanes and containing the desorbent at the upstream of this zone leaves the adsorption bed. The area between the desorbent flow entering the adsorption tower and the extracted liquid flow leaving the adsorption tower is called the desorption zone. The desorbent enters from the upstream of this zone to displace the normal alkanes in the micropores of the adsorbent so that the adsorbent can be reused. There is also an isolation zone between the desorbent flow and the residual liquid flow. The purpose of this zone is to prevent non-normal alkanes in the adsorption zone from entering the desorption zone and contaminating the extracted liquid. Each adsorption column or adsorbent bed is connected to at least one logistics pipeline to transport several logistics entering or leaving the adsorption separation device. The positions of these logistics entering or leaving the adsorbent bed are periodically changed from top to bottom, so as to achieve the effect of the relative countercurrent simulation movement of the liquid and solid phases in the adsorbent with the liquid flowing downward and the adsorbent moving upward, wherein the step time is 50-300s. For a small test device, the position of the inlet and outlet materials remains unchanged, and the effect of the relative countercurrent simulation movement of the liquid and solid phases can also be achieved by moving the adsorbent bed. The extracted liquid flow and the residual liquid flow leaving the adsorption tower enter the fractionation tower respectively to separate the products and recycle the desorbent.
[0083] In the present disclosure, the adsorbent containing 5A molecular sieve used can be formed by 4A molecular sieve, binder and auxiliary agent, and then the molded body is obtained by calcination, binder crystallization, Ca exchange and activation. The molding process can be carried out according to various techniques well known to those skilled in the art, such as mixing the molecular sieve, binder and auxiliary agent, and then agglomerating and molding by methods such as extrusion, tableting, rolling into balls, etc. The molding is often carried out with silicon aluminum oxide binders without adsorption capacity. In order to increase the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent, it is necessary to crystallize this type of binder to obtain a binder-free 4A molecular sieve molded body; the unit cell composition of the 5A molecular sieve disclosed in the present disclosure is Ca4Na4[Al 12 Si 12 O 48 ]·20H2O. The micropores in the 5A molecular sieve can selectively adsorb C10-C25 normal alkanes.

When the weight ratio of the molecular sieve raw material to the binder is within the above range, the problems of high bulk density of the adsorbent due to excessively high binder content, decreased active component content, and poor adsorbent strength due to too low a binder content can be avoided.
