Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of catalytic cracking additives and their preparation, and particularly relates to a high-performance catalytic cracking additive for increasing the production of light olefins and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Light olefins (ethylene, propylene, butene) are important basic organic chemical raw materials.

[0003] Most of the world's light olefin production capacity comes from traditional refining processes such as steam cracking and fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), and a small part is obtained from propane dehydrogenation (PDH) and coal-to-olefins / methanol-to-olefins. From the perspective of the light olefin production capacity structure in China, the production capacity ratio of traditional refining processes has decreased from 85% in 2013 to 68% in 2015, while the production capacity ratio of the PDH process has rapidly increased from 3% to 13%. It is expected that with the commissioning of newly built and planned PDH plants, the PDH production capacity ratio is expected to reach 18%. Nevertheless, compared with processes such as steam cracking and propane dehydrogenation, the catalytic cracking process for increasing the production of light olefins has the following unique advantages: 1) The catalytic cracking catalyst reduces the activation energy of C-C bond cleavage, making its reaction temperature generally 150-200K lower than that of steam cracking, thus being more energy-efficient; 2) The catalytic cracking catalyst or additive has a high selectivity for light olefins, which makes the light olefin yield of the FCC process 15% higher than that of steam cracking under the same reaction conditions, and the efficiency of increasing propylene production is higher; 3) The catalytic cracking process is flexible and easy to adjust, and can quickly adjust the catalyst or additive and operating conditions according to the characteristics of the feedstock; 4) It has strong profitability. Based on this, choosing the catalytic cracking process to increase the production of light olefins is a very effective and economical method. Depending on the raw material type, operating conditions, and catalyst type, the light olefin yield of a conventional catalytic cracking unit is usually only 3-9%. For a catalytic cracking unit, in order to increase the light olefin yield and selectivity, compared with redesigning the operating process, using a catalytic cracking additive for increasing the production of light olefins containing a shape-selective zeolite molecular sieve is a technical route with less investment and quick results. Therefore, improving the performance of the catalytic cracking additive for increasing the production of light olefins by optimizing and modifying the shape-selective zeolite molecular sieve has always been one of the research hot topics in this field.

[0004] At present, the catalytic cracking and light olefins production-increasing additives mainly use the MFI topological structure ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve as the core active component, and the performance of the ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve plays a decisive role in the performance of the additive. However, with the continuous deepening of the research on the optimization and modification of the ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve, the performance of the catalytic cracking and light olefins production-increasing additives using the single topological structure ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve has gradually reached a bottleneck. Studies have shown that compared with the single topological structure shape-selective molecular sieve, the composite shape-selective molecular sieve with a multi-topological structure can give full play to the "synergistic effect" between the structural units of different topological configurations, so that it can have a catalytic performance significantly better than that of the single topological structure shape-selective molecular sieve. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the performance bottleneck problem caused by the single topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve used in the current catalytic cracking light olefin production-increasing additive, the present invention adopts the MFI / CHA binary topology ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve as the active component to prepare a high-performance catalytic cracking light olefin production-increasing additive. By using it in combination with a catalytic cracking catalyst, the high-performance catalytic cracking light olefin production-increasing additive can greatly improve the light olefin yield of the catalytic cracking catalyst.

[0006] The present invention provides a high-performance catalytic cracking low-carbon olefin production-increasing additive and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0007] (1) ZSM-5 molecular sieve, sodium aluminate and deionized water are mixed and slurried, and stirred continuously at a temperature of 50 to 95° C. for 0.5 to 4 hours, and the pH value of the slurry is adjusted to 7 to 9 with an acid, and the slurry is allowed to stand for aging for 1 to 5 hours, and then filtered, washed and dried to obtain a modified ZSM-5 matrix;

[0008] (2) The modified ZSM-5 matrix obtained in (1), phosphoric acid, template agent and deionized water are fully stirred and mixed, and the resulting slurry is placed in an autoclave at 120-180° C. for crystallization for 24-72 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the slurry is filtered, washed, dried and calcined to obtain a binary topology ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve.

[0009] (3) The binary topological structure ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve obtained in (2), a binder and clay are mixed with measured deionized water at a solid content of 20 to 50%, slurried, spray-formed, calcined and solidified to obtain the high-performance catalytic cracking low-carbon olefin production-increasing auxiliary agent.

[0010] The ZSM-5 molecular sieve in step (1) of the above preparation method can be a ZSM-5 molecular sieve with different silicon-to-aluminum ratios, preferably a ZSM-5 molecular sieve with a silicon-to-aluminum ratio of 30 to 400.

[0011] In step (1) of the above preparation method, the mass ratio of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve: sodium aluminate: deionized water is 1: 0.05-0.3: 4-10.

[0012] The acid described in step (1) of the above preparation method can be one of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid, and hydrochloric acid is preferred.

[0013] The template agent described in step (2) of the above preparation method can be one of tetraethylammonium hydroxide, triethylamine, diethylamine, morpholine, diisopropylamine, n-propylamine, and tetraethylammonium hydroxide is preferred.

[0014] In step (2) of the above preparation method, the mass ratio of the modified ZSM-5 matrix: phosphoric acid (calculated by the mass of H3PO4): template agent: deionized water = 1: 0.1-0.3: 0.05-0.15: 10-30.

[0015] The binary topological structure ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve described in step (2) of the above preparation method has an MFI / CHA binary topological structure; and in the binary topological structure, the ZSM-5 molecular sieve structural unit and the silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve secondary structural unit are combined at the nanoscale.

[0016] The binder described in step (3) of the above preparation method is one of silica sol, alumina sol, aluminum phosphate sol and aluminum phosphate gel, and alumina sol is preferred, especially alumina sol with an Al2O3 content of 19.40 wt%.

[0017] The clay described in step (3) of the above preparation method is one of kaolin, halloysite, montmorillonite, diatomite, saponite, rectorite, sepiolite, attapulgite, hydrotalcite and bentonite.

[0018] For a high-performance catalytic cracking olefin production promoter provided by the above preparation method of the present invention, based on the total dry weight of the binary topological structure ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve, binder and clay being 100%, the proportion of the binary topological structure ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve is 10-60%, the proportion of the binder is 5-30%, and the proportion of the clay is 20-80%.

[0019] The beneficial effects obtained by the present invention are:

[0020] Most of the existing additives for increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking use single-topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieves as the core active component. However, with the continuous deepening of the synthesis and modification of single-topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieves, the performance of single-topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieves in increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking has gradually reached a bottleneck, which has greatly hindered the development of new high-performance additives for increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking. To address this prominent problem, the present invention prepares a high-performance additive for increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking using a binary-topology ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve as the active component, breaking through the performance bottleneck of the current single-topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve. The binary-topology ZSM-5 composite shape-selective molecular sieve used contains both CHA and MFI topological configuration zeolite structure units in its structure, and can fully exert the "synergistic effect" mechanism between different zeolite structure units in the reaction of increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking, thereby obtaining significantly better performance in increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking than the single-topology ZSM-5 shape-selective molecular sieve, and greatly improving the performance of the current additives for increasing the production of light olefins by catalytic cracking.
