Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lubricating oil base oil production, and particularly relates to a high viscosity index base oil and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Lubricating oil base oils are mainly divided into three categories: mineral base oils, synthetic base oils, and vegetable oil base oils. Among them, mineral oil base oils have the widest range of applications. Mineral oil base oils generally originate from the lubricating oil components in crude oil and are special mineral oil products obtained by deep refining to remove impurities such as aromatics, sulfur, and nitrogen. Their components are generally naphthenes and paraffins with a relative molecular mass of 300 - 400, belonging to the lubricating oil fraction, colorless, odorless, tasteless, chemically inert, and having excellent light and heat stability, with wide uses.
[0003] The classification standard of lubricating oil base oils in China is in line with international standards. Generally, the American API standard is adopted, and the base oils are divided into five categories: Category I, II, III, IV, and V. Among them, Categories I, II, and III are all mineral oils, Category IV is synthetic oil, and Category V is base oils not included in Categories I - IV. The main property indicators of Categories I, II, and III mineral oil base oils are: viscosity, viscosity index, sulfur content (mass fraction), saturated hydrocarbons (mass fraction), pour point, evaporation loss, oxidation stability, etc. They are mainly used for vehicle engine lubricating oils, and also for the lubrication of textile machinery, precision instruments, and compressor sealing oils; the lubrication of non - directly - contacted food processing machinery and equipment, including food industrial processing equipment such as grain and oil processing, fruit and vegetable processing, and dairy product processing. Generally, the higher the viscosity index of the base oil product, the higher the price and the greater the profit.
[0004] The domestic production processes of lubricating oil base oils mainly include the "old three sets" and full - hydrogenation. Among them, the "old three sets" process is ketone - benzene, furfural, and clay refining, mainly producing Category I base oils; while the full - hydrogenation process can produce Category II and III base oils. The domestic full - hydrogenation method for producing base oils has been studied and applied for more than 20 years, but the development is slow, and it is mainly used to produce Category II base oils, and only a small part can meet the Category III standard, while developed foreign countries mainly produce high - value - added Category III oils.
[0005] Currently, the hydrogenation process for processing lubricating oil base oils includes the patent CN202111278573.7 (a method for hydrogenation production of high viscosity index lubricating oil base oil) applied by Dalian Research Institute of Petroleum and Chemical Industry, Sinopec. This method uses waxy oil as the raw material. First, a hydrotreating reaction is carried out. After the effluent from the hydrotreating reaction is stripped with high - pressure hydrogen to remove impurities such as H2S and NH3 that affect the noble metal catalyst, it enters the isomerization - dewaxing - deep supplementary refining reaction zone to improve the low - temperature performance and stability of the oil product.

[0038] In the above method, in step 1), the ketone-benzene wax bottom oil is the oil product produced after temperature reduction and dewaxing in the ketone-benzene dewaxing unit of the lubricating oil product line in a general petroleum processing enterprise. Generally, the wax bottom oil produced by ketone-benzene dewaxing can be used as the ketone-benzene wax bottom oil, and the source is relatively wide.
[0039] In the above method, in step 1), the nitrogen content in the mixture of the vacuum distillation reduced fourth-line wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone-benzene wax bottom oil is ≤1700 mg / kg.
[0040] In the above method, in step 1), the distillation range of the mixture of the vacuum distillation reduced fourth-line wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone-benzene wax bottom oil is 320°C to 460°C, and the distillation range width is ≥80°C.
[0041] In the above distillation range, the initial boiling point of the mixture raw material should be not less than 320 °C, and the final boiling point should not exceed 460 °C. The width of the above distillation range is the temperature difference between the final boiling point and the initial boiling point.
[0042] In the above method, in step 1), the wax content in the material after mixing the vacuum distillation fourth side stream wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone benzene underflow wax is 20 wt% - 55 wt%.
[0043] In the above method, in step 1), the water content in the material after mixing the vacuum distillation fourth side stream wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone benzene underflow wax is ≤ 0.03 wt%.
[0044] In the above method, in step 1), the pour point of the material after mixing the vacuum distillation fourth side stream wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone benzene underflow wax is 32 °C - 45 °C.
[0045] In the above method, in step 1), the kinematic viscosity (at 100 °C) of the material after mixing the vacuum distillation fourth side stream wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone benzene underflow wax is 4.5 - 5.2 mm 2 / s.

[0047] In the above method, in step 1), after mixing the vacuum distillation fourth side stream wax oil, hydrocracking tail oil, and ketone benzene underflow wax, it needs to be filtered to remove solid particles and impurities. Preferably, the particle size of the solid particles and impurities removed by filtration is > 25 μm.
[0048] In the above method, in step 1), the hydrocracking reaction is carried out in a hydrocracking reactor.
[0049] In the above method, in step 1), the hydrogen sulfide concentration in the recycled hydrogen introduced into the hydrocracking reaction is ≤ 1500 ppm.
[0050] In the above method, in step 1), the temperature of the hydrocracking reaction is 370 °C - 380 °C.

[0052] The above hydrocracking reaction is carried out under high temperature and high pressure conditions. Through the hydrogenation reaction, desulfurization, denitrification, saturation of olefins and aromatics, and hydrocracking are achieved. All of these reactions are exothermic reactions. In the desulfurization and denitrification reactions, sulfur and nitrogen are split from the sulfur- or nitrogen-containing hydrocarbon rings through aromatic ring saturation and cracking, generating H2S and NH3. The hydrocracking reaction largely retains the hydrocarbon rings. The unsaturated bonds in olefins and aromatics are significantly saturated. The aromatic rings are hydrogenated to form cycloalkanes and then cracked to open the rings.

[0058] The above first atmospheric fractionation is carried out in a plate fractionation tower. The stripping steam is fed from the bottom of the tower, and the material is fed into the first atmospheric fractionation tower from the 8th plate. Under the action of the stripping steam, the light components rise and the heavy components fall, and the gas-liquid two phases are fully contacted on each tower plate, and the product separation is achieved according to different boiling points.
[0059] In the above method, in step 2), the first top component is hydrocracked naphtha. The hydrocracked naphtha is the raw material after being treated by the hydrocracking reaction, and it is the light component oil product obtained at the top of the first atmospheric fractionation tower in the first atmospheric fractionation, generally mainly composed of C5 and C6.
[0060] The above hydrocracked naphtha is withdrawn after being obtained from the top of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit. Among them, a part of the hydrocracked naphtha is used as a conventional naphtha product, which is cooled and then sent out of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit, and the other part is returned as reflux to the top of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit to control the top temperature of the column.
[0061] In the above method, in step 2), the first side stream component is hydrocracked kerosene, which is the raw material after being treated by hydrocracking reaction and is the kerosene component withdrawn from the side stream of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit, generally composed of C11 - C19. In this preparation method, the above hydrocracked kerosene can be withdrawn from the 27th plate of the side stream of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit, and the hydrocracked kerosene is taken out of the column as a kerosene product.
[0062] In the above method, in step 2), the first bottom component is the raw material after being treated by hydrocracking reaction, and after the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit separates light components such as hydrocracked naphtha and hydrocracked kerosene, the product obtained at the bottom of the atmospheric fractionation column of the hydrocracking unit.

[0069] The above isodewaxing reaction selects long-chain alkyl hydrocarbons and isomerizes them into isoparaffins to reduce the pour point of the target product and retain the viscosity index of the original paraffins.
[0070] In the above method, in step 3), the post-hydrofining reaction is carried out in a post-hydrofining reactor.
[0071] In the above method, in step 3), the reaction temperature of the post-hydrofining reaction is ≤ 300 °C, preferably 225 °C to 255 °C.

[0076] In the above method, in step 4), the feed temperature of the second atmospheric distillation is 300 °C to 320 °C, specifically it can be 300 °C to 308 °C, 308 °C to 313 °C, 313 °C to 320 °C, preferably 308 °C to 313 °C.
[0077] In the above method, in step 4), when the second oil product is subjected to the second atmospheric distillation, the draw temperature of the side line of the second atmospheric distillation column is ≥ 170 °C, preferably 190 °C to 205 °C.

[0079] The mechanism of action of the above second atmospheric distillation is that in a plate fractionating column, stripping steam is fed from the bottom of the column, and the material is fed into the column from the 8th plate of the second atmospheric distillation column. Under the action of the stripping steam, the light components rise and the heavy components descend, and the gas-liquid two phases are in full contact on each tray, and product separation is achieved according to different boiling points.
[0080] In the above method, in step 4), the second overhead component is isomerized naphtha, generally mainly composed of C5 and C6. After the second overhead component is withdrawn from the top of the isomerization dewaxing atmospheric distillation column, it is divided into two paths. One path is sent out of the isomerization dewaxing atmospheric distillation column as a conventional naphtha product, and the other path is returned as reflux to the inside of the top of the isomerization dewaxing atmospheric distillation column to control the top temperature.
[0081] In the above method, in step 4), the second side stream component is isomerized dewaxed kerosene. The isomerized dewaxed kerosene, as a conventional kerosene component, is generally composed of C11 to C19. In this preparation method, the second side stream component can be withdrawn from the 17th plate of the side stream of the isomerization dewaxing atmospheric distillation column, and after being stripped of light components by a reboiler, it is sent out of the column as a conventional kerosene product.

[0085] The vacuum distillation column for the above vacuum distillation is a packed column and can be divided into 7 layers of packing. Stripping steam is fed from the bottom of the column, and the material is fed between the first and second packing beds. Under vacuum conditions, the gas-liquid two phases are in full contact on the packing of each bed, the light components rise layer by layer, and the heavy components descend layer by layer to achieve fine separation of the products.
