Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of light oil utilization and conversion, and in particular to a method for producing C3 / C4 products from light oil. Background Art

[0002] At present, the traditional oil refining industry is facing the challenge of transforming from large-scale and clean production to "oil conversion" and energy conservation and carbon reduction. Since the octane number of aromatic raffinate oil itself is not high and the demand for blending gasoline is low, there is an urgent need for a high-value utilization method for aromatic raffinate oil.

[0003] The best raw materials for chemical plants such as ethylene are low-carbon normal alkanes. Therefore, using low-sulfur and low-nitrogen raffinate oil as raw materials to produce propane and butane, while producing a portion of light naphtha mainly composed of low-carbon hydrocarbons, can provide high-quality raw materials for chemical plants and solve the problem of excess low-value-added raffinate oil resources in refineries.

[0004] CN12409121A discloses a method for converting light naphtha into low-carbon olefins and aromatics, wherein light naphtha with a C5 and C6 paraffin content of 99% is separated by normal isomerization, and the isomer components are fed to a hydrocracking unit and separated to obtain refinery dry gas, propane, normal butane and isobutane, and then these components are further converted into ethylene and propylene by steam cracking or propane dehydrogenation. The conditions of the hydrocracking unit in the method include a temperature of 330 to 360°C and a pressure of 6 to 8 MPa gauge pressure. After separation by the hydrocracking unit, the proportions of refinery dry gas, propane, normal butane and isobutane are 6%, 31%, 29% and 34% respectively.

[0005] WO2021236149A1 discloses a method for converting light naphtha fractions into high-value products through two-stage reaction zones. The raw material passes through a first reactor loaded with a bifunctional catalyst, partially reforming the light naphtha into BTEX, and partially cracking the light naphtha into ethane, propane and butane. The effluent from the first reactor is passed through a gas-liquid separation unit to produce liquid and gas products. After removing hydrogen and methane from the gas product, the gas is converted into light olefins under steam cracking conditions through a second reactor.

[0006] CN13307717A discloses a method for producing propane by hydrogenation of light hydrocarbons, wherein the light hydrocarbon raw material, hydrogen-rich gas and circulating light hydrocarbon are heated, and then catalytic cracking reaction is carried out under acidic catalyst conditions, and the reaction product is cooled and fractionated to obtain dry gas, propane and aromatic gasoline components. The raw material of the method is a raw material with an alkane content greater than 50wt% and a carbon number range of C4 to C13, the reaction temperature is 250 to 550°C, the pressure is 0.01 to 5.0MPa, and the mass space velocity is 0.1 to 5.0h -1, the hydrogen-to-oil ratio is 30 to 800:1, and the catalyst is a HZSM-5 molecular sieve.

[0007] At present, technologies that use propane and butane as their main products often have relatively high restrictions on raw materials, such as the carbon number and alkane content of the raw material hydrocarbon composition. In addition, under relatively mild reaction conditions, the yields of the products propane and butane are often relatively low. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hydrocarbon oil conversion method which takes light oil as raw material and maximizes the yield of propane and isobutane.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for producing C3 / C4 products from light oil, the method comprising:

[0010] (1) introducing light oil into a hydrocracking reaction zone filled with a hydrocracking catalyst under low pressure and hydrogen conditions to carry out a hydrocracking reaction to obtain a hydrocracking product; the content of saturated hydrocarbons in the light oil is 90 wt% to 100 wt%;

[0011] (2) separating the hydrocracking products to obtain C3 / C4 products and light naphtha products above C5; the yield of liquefied gas in the C3 / C4 products is not less than 50 wt%;

[0012] The conditions of the hydrocracking reaction are controlled so that the conversion rate of the hydrocracking reaction zone is 42% to 88%; the conversion rate = (1-the mass percentage of C5 or higher hydrocarbons in the C5 or higher light naphtha product * the yield of the C5 or higher light naphtha product / the mass percentage of C5 or higher hydrocarbons in the light oil) * 100%;

[0013] Based on the total weight of the hydrocracking catalyst, the content of active metal elements in the hydrocracking catalyst in terms of oxides is 10wt% to 50wt%, and the remainder is a carrier; based on the total weight of the carrier, the carrier contains 45wt% to 80wt% of an acidic component, and the acidic component is at least one of a Y-type molecular sieve and its modified products.

[0014] The method provided by the present invention can convert light oil raw materials such as aromatic raffinate oil to produce C3 / C4 products.

[0015] The method provided by the invention can produce liquefied gas rich in C3 and isomerized C4 using light oil as a raw material under low-pressure hydrogen conditions.

[0016] The method provided by the present invention realizes the production of C3 and C4 products from raffinate oil under low-pressure hydrocracking conditions for low-nitrogen naphtha raw materials, maximizes the yield of propane and isobutane, and provides high-quality raw materials for chemical plants.
