Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of refining catalysts and additives, and relates to a catalytic cracking additive, particularly a catalytic cracking additive resistant to iron, nickel, and vanadium, especially iron contamination, and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In the industrial production of polyolefins, the most widely used catalyst is the Ziegler-Natta catalyst, a titanium-based catalyst. Regarding the preparation of titanium-based polyolefin catalysts, for example, patent CN102336851B discloses a propylene polymerization catalyst comprising magnesium, titanium, halogens, and a mixture of one of the internal electron donor compounds, diisobutyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, or di-n-butyl phthalate, and a succinate ester; patent CN107434832B discloses a propylene polymerization catalyst mainly composed of magnesium alkoxides, titanium compounds, and phosphate ester electron donor compounds. Currently, a common method for preparing titanium-based catalysts is as follows: first, magnesium halide alcohols are prepared, for example, by heating and dissolving magnesium halide with an alcohol, followed by high-pressure spraying or high-speed stirring, and then solidifying into microspheres in a cooling medium; specific steps are described in CN1110281A. Then, the magnesium halide alcohol particles are reacted with a halogen-containing compound such as titanium tetrachloride to prepare a magnesium-supported catalyst, during which various promoters can be added for modification. In the catalyst preparation process described above, a large amount of titanium tetrachloride is required, with a significant excess. Simultaneously, the obtained solid catalyst component needs to be washed with a hydrocarbon solvent (such as hexane) to remove unloaded titanium tetrachloride. Therefore, in the production of polyolefin catalysts, after separating and precipitating the solid catalyst, a large amount of catalyst mother liquor containing at least one of the following substances is generated: titanium tetrachloride, unreacted hydrocarbons, unreacted haloalkoxytitanium, alkoxymagnesium, and unreacted esters. The titanium tetrachloride waste liquid generated during the preparation of titanium-based polypropylene catalysts contains, in addition to titanium tetrachloride (at least 80%), small amounts of alkoxytitanium complexes (e.g., approximately 2%-5%), small amounts of lipids, and n-hexane. Directly discarding this waste liquid would inevitably cause environmental pollution and resource waste; therefore, its effective utilization is necessary.
[0003] Catalytic cracking feedstocks contain metallic contaminants such as iron, nickel, and vanadium. These contaminants deposit on the catalyst during catalytic cracking, causing catalyst poisoning and deactivation. This leads to decreased selectivity in the catalytic cracking reaction, increased yields of coke and dry gas, and decreased yields of target products such as gasoline and diesel, affecting the stable operation of the catalytic cracking unit and the refinery's economic efficiency. As FCC feedstocks become increasingly heavier and of lower quality, the impact of metal poisoning on FCC catalysts is becoming more severe. Iron can deposit on the catalyst surface, forming low-melting-point eutectic compounds with sodium and silicon in the catalyst. This blocks the catalyst pores, affecting the diffusion and mass transfer of oil and gas molecules within the catalyst pores, reducing the accessibility of the catalyst's active centers, and thus decreasing the catalyst's heavy oil conversion capacity and the selectivity of the catalytic cracking reaction. Vanadium in the feedstock will form vanadate under FCC conditions, causing dealuminization and structural collapse of the molecular sieve framework, ultimately leading to the deactivation of the molecular sieve and the catalyst. This will also reduce the catalyst's heavy oil conversion capacity and the selectivity of the catalytic cracking reaction. Nickel in crude oil deposits on the catalyst. During the catalytic cracking reaction, nickel has strong dehydrogenation activity, increasing hydrogen yield and promoting the coking reaction of unsaturated hydrocarbons, which blocks the catalyst pores, reduces the catalyst's specific surface area, and worsens the selectivity of the catalytic cracking reaction.
[0004] To address the adverse effects of metal contaminants such as iron, nickel, and vanadium on catalysts, current technologies mainly focus on three aspects: improving the resistance of catalytic cracking catalysts to metal contamination, using catalytic cracking promoters, and using metal passivators. Among these, the use of catalytic cracking promoters and metal passivators is convenient to use, eliminates the need to replace all catalysts in the catalytic cracking unit to achieve a specific reaction target, and is characterized by low dosage and rapid effectiveness.
[0005] Regarding catalysts for resisting metal contamination, CN1057022C discloses a zeolite catalyst with a chemically modified matrix and its preparation method. The catalyst matrix is a novel component composed of alkaline earth metal titanates and phosphorus-containing γ-Al₂O₃. The catalyst consists of 10-60 wt% of one of HY, REY, or USY zeolites, 5-40 wt% of natural or synthetic kaolinite, 5-40 wt% of 0.1-4.0 wt% of high-temperature resistant phosphorus-containing γ-Al₂O₃, and 1-30 wt% of alkaline earth metal titanates selected from Ba, Sr, or Mg. This catalyst exhibits high activity, high resistance to carbon, and strong resistance to heavy metal contamination by nickel and vanadium.
[0006] CN104014361B discloses a catalytic cracking catalyst and its preparation method. The catalyst comprises 1-60 wt% modified biporous alumina, 10-70 wt% molecular sieve with a FAU structure, 1-60 wt% binder, and 5-70 wt% clay. Based on the weight of the modified biporous alumina, it contains 0.05-1 wt% rare earth elements (based on RE₂O₃) and 0.5-10 wt% silicon (based on SiO₂). The modified biporous alumina has a γ-alumina crystal structure, with accessible pore sizes of 4-9.5 nm for smaller pores and 12-25 nm for larger pores, and a specific surface area of 250-500 m². 2 / g, pore volume 0.6-1.8cm³ 3 / g. This catalyst can improve gasoline quality and increase liquid product yield, and has strong heavy oil cracking capability under metal contamination conditions.
[0007] CN103769192B discloses a catalytic cracking catalyst and its preparation method. The catalyst contains a biporous silica-alumina material and a molecular sieve. The smaller pore of the biporous silica-alumina material has a visible pore size of 2-10 nm, and the larger pore has a visible pore size of 10-25 nm. Based on the total catalyst volume, the content of the biporous silica-alumina material is 1-52% by weight, the clay content is 9-60%, the phosphorus content (based on P2O5) is 0-8%, the rare earth metal content (based on RE2O3) is 0-3%, the binder content is 19-70%, and the Y-type molecular sieve content is 20-70%. This catalyst exhibits strong resistance to metal contamination, strong heavy oil cracking capacity, high liquid yield, and can improve the quality of gasoline in the cracking products.
[0008] Regarding anti-metal contamination additives, CN100478420C discloses a catalytic cracking additive and its preparation method. This additive contains alumina and molecular sieves, with or without clay. The alumina is n-alumina and / or X-alumina, or a mixture of n-alumina and / or X-alumina with γ-alumina. The additive also contains phosphorus and alkaline earth metals. Based on the additive weight, the content of n-alumina and / or X-alumina is 0.5-50 wt%, the content of γ-alumina is 0-50 wt%, the content of molecular sieve is 0.5-20 wt%, the content of clay is 0-75 wt%, the phosphorus content (based on P2O5) is 0.1-4 wt%, and the alkaline earth metal content (based on oxides) is 0.1-4 wt%. The molecular sieve is Y-type zeolite. This additive has strong resistance to heavy metal contamination and can improve the quality of gasoline in cracking products.
[0009] CN101439303A discloses a heavy hydrocarbon oil catalytic cracking additive and its preparation method, comprising the following components (wt%): Al2O3 10-65%, P (based on elemental P) 2-13%, SiO2 1-15%, and clay 10-65%. The preparation method includes: a. Preparation of aluminum phosphate colloid: dissolving a phosphorus source compound and hydrated alumina separately in deionized water according to a P:Al2O3 molar ratio of 0.5-5:1, and preparing an aluminum phosphate colloid with a solid content of 20-40 wt%; stirring and dissolving at 20℃-60℃ for 1-5 hours; obtaining the aluminum phosphate colloid for later use; b. Preparation of aluminum phosphate colloid: adding water glass to the dissolved aluminum phosphate colloid, wherein the amount of water glass added is by weight percentage. The ratio of SiO2:Al2O3 is 0.01-1.5:1. Under stirring, the mixture is aged at 20℃-80℃ for 1-3 hours to obtain a silica-alumina phosphate gel for later use. c. Mixing and pulping: Clay is added to the silica-alumina phosphate gel, with the amount of clay added ensuring that the clay content in the final additive is 10-65 wt%. The mixture is then mixed and pulped for 1-3 hours. d. Spray molding; e. Washing and drying: The filtrate is washed with deionized water until the pH value is between 6 and 7, and then dried at 80-120℃. This additive has a strong resistance to heavy metal contamination and improves the selectivity of heavy hydrocarbon oil cracking reactions. However, this patent does not provide information on the additive's resistance to heavy metal contamination, nor does it specify which heavy metal contamination the additive resists. The presence of silica is detrimental to the resistance to iron contamination. The additive contains SiO2 provided by water glass, while iron oxide, sodium, and silica form a low-melting-point eutectic with a melting point below 500℃. Under reaction-regeneration temperature conditions, it has strong fluidity, which blocks the catalyst pores, prevents the diffusion of macromolecules, affects the accessibility of the catalyst active center, and reduces the heavy oil conversion capacity (Reference 1: Shi Lei, Bi Lintian, Yao Yuan. The effect of iron on catalytic cracking catalyst [J]. Qilu Petrochemical, 2012, 40(1): 50-53; Reference 2: Bai Rui. Study on the iron migration law of catalytic cracking reactor bed and industrial application of new iron-resistant catalyst [J]. Petroleum Refining and Chemical Industry, 2022, 53(4): 38-42).
[0010] Regarding anti-metal contamination passivating agents, CN88102585A discloses a method for suppressing the poisoning effect of contaminating metals on cracking catalysts during fluidized catalytic cracking. This method involves depositing a small amount of bismuth-containing passivating agent onto the catalyst to suppress the poisoning effect of contaminating metals such as nickel, vanadium, and iron on the cracking catalyst during fluidized catalytic cracking with hydrocarbon feed containing contaminating metals. Ideally, the weight ratio of bismuth to nickel equivalent (nickel + 0.2 vanadium and 0.1 iron) is approximately 0.01:1 to 1:1. The passivating agent may also contain mixtures of bismuth and antimony, as well as compounds of bismuth and tin.
[0011] CN100540141C discloses a catalytic cracking metal passivator and its preparation method, which provides boron-containing compounds and compounds containing both boron and phosphorus as catalytic cracking metal passivators. This passivator exhibits a significant passivation effect on nickel on the catalytic cracking catalyst, resulting in a marked improvement in the distribution of reaction products. The yield of the ideal product, gasoline, increases by 2.5–4 percentage points, while the yields of the non-ideal products, coke and hydrogen, decrease, with the hydrogen yield decreasing by 20–40%. However, if boron migrates onto the catalyst, even a small amount can disrupt the structure of the active molecular sieve component in the catalyst, leading to a decrease in the catalyst's cracking activity and conversion rate.
[0012] CN1133717C discloses a water-soluble catalytic cracking (FCC) metal passivator and its preparation method. This passivator is effective against heavy metal contamination on catalytic cracking catalysts, especially nickel, iron, vanadium, and sodium. The agent uses antimony, aluminum, and rare earth metal elements lanthanum (or cerium) as the main active components. After the compounds of these metal elements react with organic carboxylic acids, they are mixed to form highly stable compounds. It has the characteristics of high efficiency, low toxicity, stable properties (does not decompose below 300℃), convenient use, and water miscibility. It can passivate the contamination of catalysts by nickel, iron, vanadium, and sodium, improve the yield of gasoline and light oil, reduce hydrogen yield and hydrogen / methane ratio, improve product selectivity, and enhance catalyst activity.
[0013] In existing technologies, anti-metal contamination catalytic cracking catalysts generally contain metal trapping components, such as rare earth oxides and alkaline earth metals, in their formulation design. They also employ porous active support materials or modify catalyst preparation techniques to increase the pore volume and the proportion of mesopores and macropores, thereby passivating heavy metals, reducing the adverse effects of metal contamination on the catalyst, and improving the catalyst's resistance to metal contamination. However, the rare earth oxides and alkaline earth metals used for metal trapping in the catalyst can transfer to the molecular sieve during use. Rare earths can increase the acid density and coke yield of the molecular sieve catalyst, while excessive alkaline earth metals can neutralize the acid active sites of the molecular sieve, reducing catalyst activity. Therefore, the content of rare earth and alkaline earth metals used for metal contamination resistance in catalytic cracking catalysts is usually low, affecting their anti-metal contamination effect.
[0014] In existing technologies, passivating agents for resisting metal contamination are liquid-phase and generally contain organic solvents and metal trapping components, such as Sb, rare earth oxides, and alkaline earth metals. During catalytic cracking, the passivating agent is added to the reactor along with the feedstock. The passivating agent droplets deposit on the surface of catalyst microspheres and interact with harmful contaminating metal components, thereby passivating heavy metals, reducing the adverse effects of metal contamination on the catalyst, and improving the catalyst's resistance to metal contamination. However, the metal passivating agents with industrial application value are mainly organometallic passivating agents such as antimony-based, bismuth-based, and tin-based agents. These organometallic passivating agents are highly toxic and harmful to human health and the environment, limiting their use. Furthermore, the stability of the passivating agent also affects its performance.
[0015] Therefore, in order to reduce the adverse effects of metal contaminants such as iron, nickel, and vanadium contained in catalytic cracking feedstock on catalysts, despite recent advancements in catalyst, additive, and metal passivator technologies, there is still a need for new additive preparation technologies that are environmentally friendly, simple, and feasible, while also possessing excellent resistance to metal contamination such as iron, nickel, and vanadium.

After the catalysts contaminated with nickel and vanadium were aged at 800°C and 100% water vapor for 4 hours, the catalytic cracking reaction performance was evaluated on a heavy oil microreactor evaluation device (ACE). The evaluation results are listed in Table 2.
[0127] Wherein, total liquid yield = LPG yield + gasoline yield + diesel yield; coke factor = (100 - conversion rate) × coke yield / conversion rate.

[0129]
[0130] In Table 2, the additives CAT-1, CAT-2, CAT-3, CAT-4, and CAT-5 prepared in Examples 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, when mixed with the base agent LDO-70 industrial catalyst at a weight ratio of 9:1, still exhibited high conversion rates and total liquid yields even with V contamination levels of 5000 μg / g and Ni contamination levels of 3000 μg / g. The conversion rates increased by more than 3.50 percentage points, and the total liquid yield increased by more than 1.50 percentage points.
