Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an adjustment method for switching from wax oil hydrocracking to catalytic diesel hydrocracking, and in particular to an adjustment method for a smoothly operating wax oil hydrocracking unit when the raw materials to be processed are changed and catalytic diesel needs to be processed. Background Art
[0002] The hydrocracking process is a process in which heavy distillate oil (VGO, CGO, DAO) is hydrodesulfurized, hydrodenitrogenated, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are hydrosaturated and ring-opened cracked under the conditions of hydrogen, high temperature, high pressure and catalyst to convert it into target products such as light oil and middle distillate oil.
[0003] CN109988629 discloses a wax oil hydrocracking method and system, which includes: subjecting wax oil feedstock to hydrogenation pretreatment to obtain a hydropretreatment stream; contacting the hydropretreatment stream and a hydrogen-containing stream with a first hydrocracking catalyst to obtain a first hydrocracking stream, and dividing the first hydrocracking stream into two parts, first hydrocracking stream a and first hydrocracking stream b; contacting the first hydrocracking stream b and the hydrogen-containing stream with a second hydrocracking catalyst, and separating and fractionating the obtained second hydrocracking stream to obtain a hydrocracking tail oil product; contacting the first hydrocracking stream a, at least a portion of the hydrocracking tail oil product, the hydrogen-containing stream with a hydroisomerization cracking catalyst, and separating and fractionating the obtained hydroisomerization cracking stream. The method provided by this invention can meet the needs of producing naphtha products, aviation kerosene products, diesel products, and tail oil products of different specifications. CN110938466 discloses a wax oil hydrocracking method, comprising the following contents: (1) the wax oil raw material is mixed with hydrogen and first enters a hydrorefining reactor for desulfurization, denitrogenation and aromatic saturation reaction; (2) the effluent of step (1) enters a hydrocracking reactor, and the hydrocracking reactor comprises 1st to nth catalyst beds along the material direction, wherein n≥3, preferably n is 3 or 4, wherein the 1st to n-1th catalyst beds are filled with a hydrocracking catalyst containing a modified Y molecular sieve; and the nth catalyst bed is filled with a hydroisomerization catalyst containing a β and / or ZSM series molecular sieve with strong isomerization performance; (3) the effluent of the hydrocracking reactor is subjected to gas-liquid separation and liquid phase fractionation to obtain naphtha, jet fuel, diesel and tail oil. This method uses wax oil as raw material, and by setting a reasonable catalyst grading method and adjusting the catalyst composition and structure in the graded bed, the production of heavy naphtha with high aromatic potential is increased, and the quality of jet fuel and diesel products is improved. CN103102913 discloses a wax oil hydrotreating method for producing by-product diesel. First, bio-oil is mixed with recycled hydrogen for hydrogenation. The resulting liquid is then mixed with wax oil feedstock for hydrogenation and fractionated to produce naphtha, high-quality diesel, and hydrogenated wax oil products. This method can produce high-quality diesel as a by-product, has good catalyst activity and stability, and allows the device to operate stably over a long period of time. CN101875856 discloses a combined wax oil hydrotreating and catalytic cracking method. The hydrotreated feedstock undergoes a hydrogenation reaction in the presence of hydrogen and a hydrotreating catalyst. The liquid phase of the hydrogenation reaction effluent is directly fed into a catalytic cracking unit. The catalytic cracking heavy fraction, which is separated after the catalytic cracking gasoline, is mixed with the hydrotreated feedstock for hydrogenation. This method can maximize gasoline production while saving equipment investment, fully utilizing reaction heat, and reducing production energy consumption. CN115785994 discloses a wax oil hydrogenation method and apparatus. The method comprises: the wax oil feedstock is first hydrotreated to separate into gas and liquid. The liquid enters a hydrocracking reactor and is separated into a lighter fraction and a heavier fraction after passing through a liquid distribution assembly.The lighter part is not subjected to hydrocracking, while the heavier part is subjected to hydrocracking reaction, and the resulting products are separated to obtain naphtha fraction and diesel fraction. The method of the invention controls the reaction depth in a more balanced manner, ultimately achieving the purpose of increasing the yield of the target product, especially improving the selectivity and yield of naphtha, while eliminating the risk of "temperature runaway" or flooding of the bed. CN113430002 discloses a method for hydrogenating inferior wax oil. The method involves a direct graded combination of two different types of catalysts, namely, a type II catalyst containing an organic additive and a type I / II mixed catalyst. The inferior wax oil feed first flows through the type II catalyst containing an organic additive, and then the effluent contacts the type I / II mixed catalyst to achieve the purpose of removing sulfur and nitrogen impurities by coking depth, while improving the stability of the catalyst. CN 111100695 discloses a segmented feed wax oil hydroprocessing method, comprising the following steps: (1) under hydrorefining process conditions, vacuum wax oil is mixed with hydrogen and enters a first hydrorefining reaction zone, wherein a hydrorefining catalyst A is loaded; (2) the hydrorefining reaction effluent obtained in step (1) is mixed with secondary processed wax oil and enters a second hydrorefining reaction zone, wherein a hydrogenation protective agent, a hydrodemetallization catalyst, and a hydrorefining catalyst B are sequentially loaded in the second hydrorefining reaction zone along the flow direction; (3) the hydrorefining reaction effluent obtained in step (2) enters a separation system, where gas, naphtha, diesel, and tail oil are separated and the tail oil is used as feed for a catalytic cracking unit. This method effectively reduces the energy consumption of the unit by segmented processing of different inferior raw materials, while also extending the operating cycle of the unit. CN102899081 discloses a wax oil hydrotreating method. Feedstock oil is mixed with hydrogen and sequentially fed into three hydrogenation reaction zones. These zones are respectively loaded with a hydrogenation protective agent, a nickel-molybdenum-tungsten catalyst, and a cobalt-molybdenum catalyst. This method improves cracking performance and increases light oil yield.
[0004] CN1955261 discloses a method for hydrocracking low-quality catalytically cracked diesel. This method mixes low-quality catalytically cracked diesel with heavy hydrocracking feedstock, first hydrocracking it, and then subjecting the resulting intermediate distillate to two-stage hydrocracking to produce high-aromatic potential naphtha and a tail oil with a low BMCI value. CN1955262 discloses a method for hydrotreating low-quality catalytically cracked diesel. This method utilizes a two-stage hydrocracking process to treat low-quality catalytically cracked diesel. This method can produce heavy naphtha with high aromatic potential. CN103805245 discloses a hydrogenation method that combines hydrocracking and hydrodearomatization. The catalytic diesel is hydrorefined with hydrogen in a countercurrent flow; the refined oil is dearomatized with a precious metal catalyst; the wax oil is subjected to a hydrocracking pretreatment reaction with hydrogen; the pretreatment effluent is mixed with the dearomatization effluent and subjected to a hydrocracking reaction, and the resulting tail oil enters a dearomatization reactor. This method enhances the cracking function of the hydrocracking catalyst. CN106047404 discloses a combined process method for increasing the production of high-octane gasoline using inferior catalytic diesel. The method first subjects the catalytic diesel to a hydrogenation refining reaction, and then reacts the refined liquid product with a precious metal catalyst to ultimately achieve the purpose of producing more high-octane gasoline.
[0005] During the normal operation of the hydrocracking unit, in order to meet the needs of production and market, it is necessary to temporarily change the raw oil to produce products that meet the current market needs. Since the hydrocracking operating conditions of different raw materials vary greatly, it is generally necessary to stop the operation for processing, and the operation efficiency is relatively low.

[0007] A method for adjusting the process of switching from wax oil hydrocracking to catalytically cracked diesel hydrocracking, comprising the following steps:
[0008] (1) The average temperature of each bed of the stable-operating wax oil hydrocracking unit is cooled to 90°C to 230°C, preferably 180°C to 230°C, and the feed is switched to direct-flow diesel;

[0014] In step (1) of the method of the present invention, the hydrocracking catalyst loaded into the wax oil hydrocracking unit can be a commercially available product or prepared by conventional methods, or a regenerated hydrocracking catalyst can be used.
[0015] In step (1) of the method of the present invention, the cracking component of the hydrocracking catalyst loaded into the wax oil hydrocracking unit includes, but is not limited to, Y-type or β molecular sieves. The hydrocracking catalyst comprises a hydrogenation-active metal, a molecular sieve component, and an alumina carrier. The hydrogenation-active metal includes, but is not limited to, one or a mixture of Wo, Mo, Co, and Ni. The hydrocracking catalyst comprises a carrier and a supported hydrogenation metal. Based on the weight of the catalyst, the hydrogenation metal generally comprises a Group VIB metal component of the periodic table, such as tungsten and / or molybdenum, calculated as oxide, in an amount of 10% to 45%, preferably 15% to 30%; a Group VIII metal such as nickel and / or cobalt, calculated as oxide, in an amount of 1% to 7%, preferably 1.5% to 6.5%. The carrier is a molecular sieve and alumina, with emphasis on the molecular sieve content, generally 2% to 50%.
[0016] In step (1) of the method of the present invention, the wax oil is a vacuum wax oil, and the final boiling point of the vacuum wax oil is generally 450-550°C, preferably 460-520°C, the density is generally below 0.92g / cm3, preferably below 0.91g / cm3, the sulfur content is generally above 0.1wt%, preferably 0.1-3.0wt%, there is no special requirement for the nitrogen content, the aromatics content is generally below 60wt%, preferably 1.0-50wt%, and can be selected from various vacuum wax oils (VGO) obtained by processing Middle Eastern crude oil, such as one or more of Iranian VGO, Saudi VGO, etc.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the adjustment method of the present invention for switching from wax oil hydrocracking to catalytic cracking diesel hydrocracking can be switched online to catalytic cracking diesel hydrocracking on a normally operating wax oil hydrocracking unit without stopping the unit, thereby improving the effect of catalytic cracking diesel hydrocracking, especially the yield of heavy naphtha.
