Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of hydrodesulfurization catalysts, and particularly relates to a gasoline selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0003] In the existing catalytic cracking gasoline desulfurization technologies, the French Prime-G + selective hydrodesulfurization process and the Szorb adsorption desulfurization process are mainly representative. The Prime-G + technology uses Mo-Co / Al 2 O 3 as a hydrodesulfurization catalyst, and adopts a process of full-fraction pre-hydrogenation, light and heavy gasoline fractionation, and heavy fraction gasoline hydrodesulfurization. When producing clean gasoline with a sulfur content of ≯10 μg / g, the octane number loss is relatively large. When producing national VI standard gasoline with an olefin content of ≯15.0 v%, the octane number loss of the product will be further increased due to the hydrogenation saturation of olefins. The Szorb technology uses NiO-ZnO as an adsorbent and adopts an adsorption-regeneration cycle process to treat full-fraction catalytic cracking gasoline. Compared with the raw material, the product has a significantly reduced sulfur content, a slight reduction in olefins, a slight increase in alkanes, and the loss of (RON+MON) / 2 is less than 1.0 unit. However, this method cannot significantly reduce the olefin content in gasoline products, and it cannot solve the problem of reducing olefins for catalytic cracking gasoline with a high olefin content.

[0004] CN103450935A discloses a method for producing ultra-low sulfur gasoline. This method uses a stepwise impregnation method to prepare a traditional selective hydrodesulfurization MoO 3 -CoO / Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The process includes: mixing pseudo-boehmite aluminum hydroxide powder, a lubricant such as carboxymethyl cellulose, and nitric acid aqueous solution and rolling them into a plastic powder, extruding the powder into strips, drying and calcining to prepare a catalyst support; impregnating and loading phosphorus and potassium on the catalyst support, drying and calcining to prepare a P 2 O 5 -K 2 O / Al 2 O 3 catalyst intermediate; impregnating and loading molybdenum and cobalt on the catalyst intermediate, drying and calcining to prepare a highly active MoO 3 -CoO-P 2 O 5 -K 2 O / Al 2 O 3 catalyst. When this hydrodesulfurization catalyst is used to produce gasoline meeting the national V standard in terms of sulfur content, the octane number loss is relatively large.

[0005] CN102309971B discloses a preparation method of a hydrotreating catalyst. By utilizing the characteristic of large liquid absorption amount of the powder of the hydrotreating catalyst support material before forming, the method obtains a hydrotreating catalyst with a high active metal content by using a one-step impregnation method. The disadvantages of this method are that alumina, as the main support component, needs to be pre-hydrothermally treated at a high temperature to stabilize its pore channels and reduce acidity, and it needs to go through multiple drying and calcination steps, with complex procedures; in particular, this method involves rolling and extrusion, resulting in unsmooth pore channels, which is not conducive to the diffusion of reactants and products on the surface and in the pores of the catalyst. The catalyst prepared by this method is suitable for use as a hydrotreating catalyst for heavy distillate oil, but not suitable for a gasoline selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst.

[0006] The hydrodesulfurization catalysts for the existing traditional technology of producing clean gasoline from sulfur- and olefin-containing inferior gasoline generally adopt a process scheme with a low hydro-metal content, high temperature, high hydrogen-oil volume ratio, and low space velocity to reduce the loss of the octane number of the hydrogenation product. Therefore, it causes a large amount of catalyst consumption and high energy consumption in the device. Especially under the conditions of a small reactor space and a small amount of hydrogen gas (such as without a recycle hydrogen compressor) in the device, it cannot meet the enterprise's need to produce national VI gasoline with a sulfur content of no more than 10 μg / g. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a gasoline selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst, its preparation method, and application. This catalyst is applicable to the hydrodesulfurization of FCC gasoline and can meet the production of clean gasoline with a sulfur content of no more than 10 μg / g under the conditions of high space velocity and low hydrogen-oil volume ratio with a relatively small loss of octane number.

[0016] According to the present invention, the specific surface area of the catalyst is 175 - 210 m 2 / g; the pore volume of the catalyst is 0.30 - 0.40 mL / g; the average pore diameter of the catalyst is 6.0 - 8.0 nm; the bulk density of the catalyst is 0.80 - 0.95 g / cm 3 .

[0017] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the gasoline selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst. The method includes:

[0018] (1) Mixing a hydrogenation metal source, a promoter, and an acid solution to form a slurry, followed by spray drying to obtain microspheres;

[0019] (2) Mixing the microspheres and a binder, followed by shaping and calcination to obtain the catalyst.

The promoter is a salt containing a promoter component. The binder is a salt and / or oxide containing a binder component, preferably at least one of pseudoboehmite and silica sol.

[0021] According to the present invention, the acid solution in step (1) is a nitric acid solution. The concentration of the nitric acid aqueous solution is 5.0 - 20.0 g / 100 mL. The addition amount of the nitric acid aqueous solution, calculated as nitric acid, accounts for 5.0 wt% - 10.0 wt% of the total amount of the hydrogenation metal source and the promoter, where the hydrogenation metal source is calculated as the oxide and the promoter is calculated as the oxide. Additionally, an appropriate amount of water can be added as needed. The liquid-solid mass ratio of the slurry is 2:1 - 6:1. The spray drying process is generally carried out in a spray drying device, such as a spray drying tower. The hot air inlet pressure of the spray drying device is 3.0 - 7.0 MPa, the inlet temperature is 300 - 400 °C, the outlet temperature is 120 - 200 °C, and microspheres are obtained through a cyclone separator.

[0022] According to the present invention, the diameter of the microspheres in step (1) is 20 - 50 μm particles; among them, the microspheres with a diameter of 30 - 40 μm account for 60 wt% - 95 wt%, preferably 80 wt% - 95 wt%, by mass.

[0023] According to the present invention, the shaping in step (2) is kneading shaping, preferably extrusion shaping. A nitric acid aqueous solution can also be added during the shaping process in step (2). Further, the concentration of the nitric acid aqueous solution is 5.0 - 20.0 g / 100 mL. The addition amount of the nitric acid aqueous solution, calculated as nitric acid, accounts for 5.0 wt% - 10.0 wt% of the total amount of the microspheres and the binder. An appropriate amount of water can be added as needed. The calcination conditions are: calcination at 400 - 600 °C for 3.0 - 6.0 hours. Drying can be carried out before calcination, and the drying conditions are: drying at 120 - 200 °C for 3.0 - 6.0 hours.

[0024] According to the present invention, the catalyst can be pre-sulfurized before application. The pre-sulfurization treatment method can adopt conventional methods. Preferably, the catalyst is pre-sulfurized in the presence of a sulfurizing agent and hydrogen. The pre-sulfurization conditions are: the pressure is 1.0 MPa - 4.5 MPa, the temperature is 200 °C - 400 °C, the sulfurization time is 5 - 15 hours, and the hydrogen-agent volume ratio (the volume ratio of hydrogen and the sulfurizing agent) is 10:1 - 100:1; the preferred sulfurization conditions: the pressure is 1.5 MPa - 3.0 MPa, the temperature is 260 °C - 330 °C, the hydrogen-agent volume ratio is 20:1 - 80:1, and the sulfurization time is 6 - 10 hours. The sulfurizing agent is a sulfide that can decompose into H 2 S. Preferably, the sulfurizing agent includes at least one of carbon disulfide (CS 2 2) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS). Sulfurizing oil can also be added during the pre-sulfurization process. The sulfurizing oil is at least one of straight-run gasoline and hydrotreated naphtha. The distillation range of the sulfurizing oil is 40 - 180 °C. The liquid hourly space velocity of the sulfurizing oil is 2.0 h -1 -1 - 4.0 h -1 .

[0025] The third aspect of the present invention provides the application of the above gasoline selective hydrodesulfurization catalyst in gasoline hydrodesulfurization reaction.

[0026] According to the present invention, the method of the application can adopt a fixed-bed process.

[0027] According to the present invention, the gasoline is poor-quality gasoline. The poor-quality gasoline comes from the heavy fraction of catalytic cracking stabilized gasoline. The sulfur content of the gasoline is 20 - 300 μg / g, and the olefin content is 15.0 - 30.0 wt%; the initial boiling point of the gasoline is 60 - 80 °C, and the final boiling point is 190 - 205 °C.

[0028] According to the present invention, the conditions of the hydrodesulfurization reaction are as follows: the reaction pressure is 1.0 MPa - 4.5 MPa, the reaction temperature is 200 °C - 400 °C, the liquid hourly space velocity is 3.0 h -1 -10.0 h -1 , and the hydrogen-oil volume ratio is 10:1 - 100:1; the preferred reaction conditions: the reaction pressure is 1.5 MPa - 3.0 MPa, the reaction temperature is 250 °C - 300 °C, the liquid hourly space velocity is 5.0 h -1 -7.0 h -1 , and the hydrogen-oil volume ratio is 20:1 - 80:1.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0030] (1) The catalyst of the present invention comprises a hydrogenation metal component, a promoter component and a binder component; the hydrogenation metal component comprises at least one metal of Group VIB and Group VIII metals; preferably, based on the weight of the catalyst, the content of the Group VIB metal in terms of oxide is 50.0 wt% to 65.0 wt%; the content of the Group VIII metal in terms of oxide is 10.0 wt% to 25.0 wt%; the content of the promoter component in terms of oxide is 1.0 wt% to 8.0 wt%; the content of the binder component in terms of oxide is 10.0 wt% to 30.0 wt%; the average pore diameter of the catalyst is 6.0 to 8.0 nm. The hydrogenation metal component of the present invention adopts a high metal content, the content of the hydrogenation metal component in terms of oxide is above 60% and has an appropriate average pore diameter, compared with the traditional method using a low metal content (the content in terms of oxide is 15.0 wt% to 25.0 wt%). Further, the catalyst of the present invention also has an appropriate bulk density. The hydrodesulfurization catalyst is applied to the hydrodesulfurization of FCC gasoline, and can meet the production of clean gasoline with a sulfur content of ≤10 μg / g under the conditions of high space velocity and low hydrogen-oil volume ratio with a small loss of octane number; while the low hydrodesulfurization activity catalyst prepared by the traditional method can usually only meet the production of clean gasoline with a sulfur content of ≤10 μg / g under conventional process conditions, that is, low space velocity (liquid hourly space velocity is 2.0 h -1 ~4.0 h -1 ), high hydrogen-oil volume ratio (hydrogen-oil volume ratio is 200:1 to 300:1), and has a large loss of octane number.

[0031] In addition, in the prior art, alumina is used as the main carrier component, with a high content, and pre-high-temperature hydrothermal treatment is required to stabilize its pores and reduce acidity, and it needs to go through multiple drying and calcination steps, with complex steps; in the catalyst of the present invention, alumina is only used as a binder, with a small content and no special treatment is required. In the present invention, the hydrogenation metal component, the promoter component and the binder component work together to help improve the hydrodesulfurization performance of the catalyst.

[0032] (2) The preparation method of the catalyst of the present invention is to prepare the catalyst by first spray drying and then shaping and calcining. Compared with the prior art (for example, the prior art uses a powdered hydrotreating catalyst material to impregnate the active metal and then shaping treatment), the metal components of the present invention are more uniformly mixed and the pores are more unobstructed, which is more conducive to the diffusion of reactants and products such as sulfides and olefins on the surface and in the pores of the catalyst, reduces the residence time of olefins on the metal hydrogenation centers, and inhibits the over-hydrogenation saturation of olefins.

[0033] The method of the present invention can produce gasoline products meeting the National VI standard, in which the sulfur content is ≤10 μg / g and the research method octane number loss is ≤2.0.

[0034] (3) The catalyst of the present invention is applied to FCC gasoline hydrodesulfurization, and can meet the production of clean gasoline with a sulfur content of ≯10 μg / g under the conditions of high space velocity and low hydrogen-oil volume ratio with less octane number loss.
