Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of petrochemical technology and relates to a liquefied gas hydrogenation catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid increase in my country's crude oil processing capacity, refining and chemical plants are producing large quantities of low-carbon hydrocarbons such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). These low-carbon hydrocarbons are high-quality feedstocks for ethylene cracking. However, apart from hydrocracking LPG, which has a high saturation level and can be directly used as ethylene cracking feedstock, the LPG produced by catalytic cracking and coking units contains a large amount of olefins. It must be hydrogenated to saturation before entering the ethylene cracking furnace; otherwise, the olefins will undergo polymerization and coking reactions in the cracking furnace. Furthermore, the presence of organic sulfur in LPG also limits its development and utilization as a chemical feedstock. Direct emission as industrial or domestic fuel would cause environmental pollution, so hydrogenation is also necessary to remove these organic sulfur compounds.

[0003] CN201210419417.2 discloses a sulfur-containing coking liquefied gas hydrogenation catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. The catalyst uses γ-alumina as a support, and the active components are molybdenum and nickel. Based on 100% of the total catalyst weight, it contains 10.0–20.0% Mo₂O₃ and 6.0–18.0% NiO. The catalyst is in the form of strips, cloverleaf shapes, or spheres with a diameter of 3×3–5 mm, and a specific surface area of ​​100–200 m². 2 / g. In the catalyst preparation process, molybdenum is first loaded, followed by nickel, and then dried and calcined to obtain the catalyst. The catalyst of this invention can be used for high-temperature hydrogenation saturation of coking liquefied gas and residual coking C4. The catalyst does not require pre-sulfurization; after reduction in a hydrogen atmosphere, it can be directly used for high-temperature hydrogenation of coking liquefied gas and residual coking C4. No pretreatment is required for the coking liquefied gas and residual coking C4. The feed temperature for the hydrogenation reaction is 180–230℃, the reaction temperature is 280–300℃, the reaction pressure is 2.3–3.5 MPa, and the volumetric liquid hourly space velocity is 1.5–8.0 h⁻¹. -1 The hydrogen / olefin molar ratio is 1.2 to 1.8:1, and the olefin content can be less than 1% after hydrogenation.

[0004] When the above-mentioned catalyst is used in the hydrogenation process of liquefied gas, the stability of the catalyst needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] During their research, the inventors discovered that high-temperature conditions are beneficial for the removal of organic sulfur from liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and the hydrogenation saturation of unsaturated olefins. However, the multilayer metal sulfide active phase in the catalyst is prone to migration and aggregation under high-temperature conditions, which affects the stability of the LPG hydrogenation catalyst.

[0006] Based on the above research results, this invention proposes a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) hydrogenation catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. The LPG hydrogenation catalyst uses modified γ-alumina as a support, exhibits a low average number of lamellar layers in the active metal component, and a high proportion of monolayers.

[0017] In the above preparation method, the γ-alumina support in step (1) can be an existing commercial support, or it can be prepared according to common knowledge in the field as needed.

[0018] In the above preparation method, the oxygen content in the oxygen-containing atmosphere in step (1) is 10v% to 30v%, preferably an air atmosphere.

[0019] In the above preparation method, the operating conditions of the high-temperature calcination treatment in step (1) are as follows: the calcination temperature is 800-1100℃ and the calcination time is 0.5-5h.

[0020] In the above preparation method, the preparation process of the impregnation solution containing quaternary ammonium salt compounds and active components in step (2) is as follows: add the active components and quaternary ammonium salt compounds to water, and the pH value of the resulting impregnation solution is 8.5 to 11.5.

[0021] In the above preparation method, the active component is a Group VIB and / or Group VIII metal, preferably Mo and / or W, and preferably one or more of Ni, Fe-Ni, Co-Ni, and Fe-Co-Ni. Specifically, in this invention, the active component is derived from one or more of metal salts such as ammonium molybdate, ammonium metatungstate, cobalt nitrate, nickel nitrate, basic cobalt carbonate, and basic nickel carbonate.

Specific process conditions can be adjusted according to variations in raw material quality.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0031] 1. In the catalyst of this invention, the average number of lamellar layers of metal sulfides is low, and the proportion of single layers is high. By reducing the proportion of multilayer metal sulfides, the migration and aggregation of the multilayer metal sulfide active phase with weak interaction with the support under high-temperature conditions are avoided, thus preventing a decrease in catalyst activity and improving catalyst stability. Furthermore, the total acid content in the catalyst is low, and the proportion of strong acids is relatively low, which can inhibit the polymerization of olefins and dienes in liquefied gas to form carbon precursors, thereby improving catalyst lifespan.

[0032] 2. In the preparation method of the catalyst of the present invention, the γ-alumina support is modified with a modifying agent and then calcined at high temperature in an oxygen-containing atmosphere; then, it is impregnated with an impregnation solution containing quaternary ammonium salt compounds and active components, and the catalyst is calcined in an oxygen-containing atmosphere and then in an H2S+H2 atmosphere. The resulting catalyst has a low average number of lamellar layers of active metal components, a high proportion of monolayers, and a low total acid content and a low proportion of strong acids. The catalyst exhibits good stability in the hydrogenation reaction of liquefied gas. Attached Figure Description
