Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of hydrocracking, and relates to a method for producing more naphtha by blending waste plastics, mainly relates to a method for producing more naphtha by blending waste plastics and wax oil hydrocracking. BACKGROUND

[0002] The production of plastic materials such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is increasing every year. These plastics are widely used in packaging, construction, agriculture, electrical and electronic appliances and healthcare applications. Plastics have some unique characteristics, such as outstanding versatility, light weight, strength, water resistance, low cost, etc., which make them indispensable to modern civilization. However, most plastic articles have a very short service life, and plastic waste occupies the land for a longer period of time due to poor biodegradability, and only 1-3wt% of the hydrocarbon content in plastics is degraded within 100 years. Therefore, reducing the overall landfill volume of plastic waste has become a huge environmental problem. Today, landfills are being reduced, and the cost of landfill is skyrocketing. Some countries are enacting new legislation to reduce the amount of waste plastics sent to landfills. At the landfill, plastic materials are a burden to the environment, a waste of resources, a source of pollutants, and a source of greenhouse gases such as methane. Burning this plastic waste to generate energy will result in the emission of particulate matter and harmful gases, including unburned hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides, which are highly unacceptable from an environmental point of view. Therefore, incineration and landfill are not the preferred way of plastic waste management, and plastic waste needs to be treated in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly way. Recycling is an alternative to landfill or incineration treatment. It not only protects the environment, but also helps to convert potential resources into useful products. Among various recycling methods, tertiary recycling, which converts waste plastic materials into petrochemical products and fuels, is attracting increasing attention worldwide. Tertiary recycling is an economical and environmentally friendly way of plastic recycling, and is recognized as the most promising method among various waste plastic management methods. Tertiary recycling can be carried out by chemical or thermal recycling technology. Solvent degradation, glycolysis, methanolysis and hydrolysis can be carried out for condensation polymers, while thermal recycling technology such as gasification, thermal cracking or pyrolysis, catalytic cracking and hydrocracking can be carried out for addition polymers (PE, PP, PS and PVC).

[0003] CN202111595049.2 discloses a preparation method of base oil, comprising the following steps: (1) the waste plastic is subjected to catalytic cracking treatment by a fixed bed reactor A filled with a catalytic cracking catalyst to obtain a material stream I; (2) the material stream I is mixed with hydrogen and then subjected to cracking by a fixed bed hydrogenation reactor B filled with a hydrocracking catalyst to obtain a material stream II; (3) the material stream II is subjected to isomerization by a fixed bed reactor C filled with an isomerization dewaxing catalyst, and a base oil product is obtained after separation. However, the method has high energy consumption, and the waste plastic needs to be subjected to catalytic cracking-hydrocracking-hydroisomerization processes to be converted into a base oil product, and the catalytic cracking reaction temperature is 380-650℃.

[0004] CN202111276209.7 discloses a method and system for pyrolysis of waste plastics, which comprises the following steps: the waste plastics containing chlorine are subjected to hot melting and dechlorination treatment in a waste plastic preliminary melting and liquefaction dechlorination unit to obtain a gas phase material containing hydrogen chloride and a dechlorinated waste plastic liquid phase material; the dechlorinated waste plastic liquid phase material and high-temperature pyrolysis raw materials are mixed in a material mixing unit to obtain mixed pyrolysis raw materials; the mixed pyrolysis raw materials are subjected to pyrolysis in a pyrolysis reaction unit to obtain pyrolysis gaseous products and coke; and the pyrolysis gaseous products are subjected to separation in a separation unit to obtain dry gas and liquefied gas, gasoline fraction, diesel fraction and wax oil fraction. The method realizes the resource utilization of waste plastics and can avoid the coking phenomenon of furnace tubes in the heating process of liquefied waste plastic oil. However, the method uses a high-temperature hot melting method of 400-500℃ to liquefy the waste plastics, and the high-temperature hot melting method can form a high-viscosity polymer melt in the melting process of the waste plastics, which can cause device blockage and coking problems. In addition, the method needs a high reaction temperature of 480-650℃ in the pyrolysis reaction unit, and the reaction conditions are difficult to control.

[0005] CN116064071A discloses a method for treating waste plastics containing chlorine using a delayed coking device, comprising the following steps: S1, heating and mixing the waste plastics containing chlorine to be treated in a raw material mixing and melting device (2) to obtain a waste plastic mixture; and mixing the waste plastic mixture with a high-temperature solvent and then feeding it into a liquefied dechlorination reactor (3) to perform dechlorination treatment under stripping conditions to obtain a gas phase material containing hydrogen chloride and a dechlorinated waste plastic liquid phase material. However, the dechlorinated waste plastic phase material needs to be heated in a high-temperature liquefaction unit, and the high-temperature liquefaction unit comprises a screw pump, which can cause uneven heating and coking and fouling during the plastic liquefaction process.
