Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of petrochemical catalyst technology, specifically relating to a hydrorefining catalyst for fluidized bed and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrorefining is an important process in the petroleum refining industry, mainly used to remove impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen from petroleum fractions, thereby improving oil quality. Ebullated bed hydrorefining technology, as an advanced hydrorefining process, has advantages such as high mass and heat transfer efficiency, mild reaction conditions, and high catalyst utilization, making it particularly suitable for the hydrorefining of heavy feedstocks.
[0003] Traditional fluidized bed hydrogenation catalysts mostly employ Mo-Co or Mo-Ni based catalysts with γ-Al₂O₃ as the support. However, existing catalysts suffer from the following problems under fluidized bed operating conditions: First, traditional supports are prone to surface carbonization and pore blockage under high temperature, high pressure, and sulfur-containing environments, leading to rapid catalyst deactivation; second, the active metal exhibits poor dispersion on the support surface, easily resulting in agglomeration and sintering, affecting the persistence of catalytic activity; third, severe mechanical collisions and wear between catalyst particles in the fluidized bed place higher demands on the catalyst's mechanical strength.
[0004] In recent years, carbide catalysts have attracted widespread attention due to their unique electronic structure and excellent hydrogenation performance. Tungsten carbide (W₂C) possesses platinum-like electronic properties and exhibits excellent activity and selectivity in hydrogenation reactions. However, W₂C is prone to agglomeration and phase transition during preparation, making it difficult to obtain a highly dispersed active phase. Furthermore, the sulfur resistance of single carbides still needs improvement.
[0005] Graphene, as a two-dimensional carbon material, possesses excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, and chemical stability, making it a promising catalyst support. Fluorinated graphene, by introducing CF bonds, can modulate its surface electronic properties and hydrophobicity, providing a new approach to solving the problem of catalyst deactivation in sulfur-containing environments.
[0006] Therefore, developing a novel hydrorefining catalyst suitable for fluidized bed operation, with high activity, high stability, and excellent mechanical strength is of great significance for improving the hydrorefining efficiency of heavy oil products. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hydrorefining catalyst for fluidized bed and its preparation method. By using fluorinated graphene-modified support and phosphotungstic acid confined pyrolysis technology, a catalyst with a unique heterostructure is prepared. While ensuring high hydrogenation activity, the catalyst's anti-carbon deposition performance and mechanical strength are significantly improved, meeting the stringent requirements of fluidized bed operation.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0009] The hydrorefining catalyst for fluidized beds described in this invention comprises a support and an active component supported on the support. The support is a spherical porous γ-Al₂O₃ modified with fluorinated graphene. An oleophobic interface is formed on the support surface through CF bonds. The fluorine content is 0.5-2.0 wt%, more preferably 1.0-1.5 wt%, to balance oleophobicity and support mechanical strength. The graphene mass fraction accounts for 2-6% of the total support mass. The active component is a phosphotungstic acid (H₃PW₂O₃) modified with fluorinated graphene. 12 O 40 Ni-Co-W2C heterostructured nanoparticles were prepared by confined pyrolysis, in which phosphorus was mainly present as PO4. 3- The form is anchored at the metal-carbide interface, with a Ni to Co molar ratio of 0.8-2.0:1 and a total loading of 12-25 wt% of active components.
[0010] in:
[0011] The fluorinated graphene-modified support employs a unique surface engineering strategy. Fluorinated graphene, through the introduction of CF bonds, significantly alters the electronic properties and hydrophobicity of the support surface. The fluorine content is controlled within the range of 0.5-2.0 wt%; below 0.5 wt%, the modification effect is not significant, while above 2.0 wt% may affect the mechanical strength of the support. A graphene mass fraction of 2-6% is optimal, ensuring both the conductivity and mechanical strength of the support while avoiding the adverse effects of excessive graphene on the specific surface area. The oleophobic interface design effectively prevents the deep adsorption of heavy oil molecules on the support surface, slowing down the carbon deposition and deactivation process.
[0012] Specifically, the carrier has a hierarchical pore structure, with mesopores having a diameter of 8-15 nm and macropores having a diameter of 50-150 nm, resulting in a mesopore / macropore volume ratio of 0.6-1.2. This hierarchical pore structure facilitates mass transfer and diffusion of reactants and products. Mesopores provide a high specific surface area for dispersing active components, while macropores facilitate the transport of macromolecules. The optimized pore size ratio ensures a balance between mass transfer efficiency and the dispersion of active components.
[0013] Specifically, the Ni-Co-W2C heterostructure nanoparticles are prepared via phosphotungstic acid confined pyrolysis. Phosphorus is represented by PO4. 3- The structure is anchored at the metal-carbide interface, playing a dual role in structure guidance and electronic regulation. The optimal molar ratio of Ni to Co is 0.8-2.0:1. Ni provides excellent hydrogenation activity, while Co enhances sulfur resistance; the synergistic effect of the two significantly improves catalytic performance. The heterostructured nanoparticles have an average particle size of 3-8 nm, with W2C encapsulating the Ni-Co alloy in a core-shell structure. This unique structure ensures high metal dispersion while utilizing the electronic effects of W2C.
[0014] Specifically, the catalyst particles are spherical with an average particle size of 0.5-1.2 mm, a bulk density of 1.0-1.4 g / cm³, and an attrition index ≤1.5 wt% / h. They are specifically designed for the operating characteristics of fluidized bed reactors. The spherical particle shape facilitates fluidization uniformity, the particle size range ensures good fluidization performance, and the bulk density and attrition index meet the requirements for industrial applications.
[0015] Specifically, the method for preparing the catalyst includes:
[0016] (1) Preparation of fluorinated graphene: Graphene oxide and ammonium fluoride are reacted at 250-300℃ for 2-4 hours under argon protection at a mass ratio of 1:2-4. The HF produced by the decomposition of ammonium fluoride is fluorinated in situ on the surface of graphene.
[0017] (2) Carrier preparation: Fluorinated graphene was mixed with γ-Al2O3 precursor, spray dried and calcined at 500℃ for 3h;
[0018] (3) Phosphotungstic acid impregnation: 0.1-0.3 mol / L phosphotungstic acid H3PW 12 O 40 The solution is immersed on the carrier for 6-12 hours;
[0019] (4) Metal precursor loading: A solution of Ni(NO3)2·6H2O and Co(NO3)2·6H2O with a total concentration of 0.8-1.5 mol / L was loaded onto the support by a stepwise impregnation method;
[0020] (5) Confined pyrolysis: The pyrolysis treatment is carried out in a stepwise manner under a hydrogen atmosphere. The temperature is raised to 400℃ and held for 30 min to decompose phosphotungstic acid to form a WO3 coating. The temperature is then raised to 650℃ and held for 2 h to reduce WO3 to W2C and migrate to the Ni-Co phase interface. The heating rate is 3-5℃ / min.
[0021] Specifically, the hydrogen flow rate was controlled at 100-300 mL / min during the preparation process, and the catalyst was dried at 120℃ for 8 hours between each step to ensure the reproducibility and stability of the catalyst preparation.
[0022] Specifically, the stepwise impregnation method refers to: first impregnating the carrier in a phosphotungstic acid solution (0.1-0.3 mol / L, 6-12 h), drying it, and then impregnating it in a Ni / Co nitrate mixed solution (total concentration 0.8-1.5 mol / L, impregnated twice, 6 h each time), and drying it at 120°C for 8 h after each impregnation.
[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0024] 1. The oleophobic interface formed by the fluorinated graphene-modified support significantly improves the catalyst's resistance to carbon deposition. The introduction of CF bonds alters the electron density distribution on the support surface, reducing the adsorption capacity of heavy oil molecules, effectively delaying the carbon deposition and deactivation process, and improving the catalyst's lifespan.
[0025] 2. The confined pyrolysis technology of phosphotungstic acid enabled the precise construction of Ni-Co-W2C heterostructures. The anchoring effect of phosphate groups ensured high dispersion of the active components, while the confined environment suppressed W2C aggregation and phase transition. The resulting heterostructure possessed unique electronic properties and geometric structure, significantly improving hydrogenation activity and selectivity.
[0026] 3. The hierarchical pore structure optimizes the mass transfer performance of the catalyst. The reasonable ratio of mesopores and macropores ensures both a high specific surface area and effective diffusion of macromolecules, avoiding activity degradation caused by pore blockage, making it particularly suitable for the hydrogenation treatment of heavy feedstocks.
[0027] 4. The synergistic effect of the Ni-Co-W2C ternary system fully leverages the advantages of each component. Ni provides excellent C-C bond hydrogenolysis activity, Co enhances tolerance to sulfur-containing compounds, and W2C acts as an electronic promoter to regulate the electronic properties of the metal. The synergistic effect of the three significantly improves the overall performance of the catalyst.
[0028] 5. The spherical particle design and optimized mechanical properties ensure stable operation of the catalyst in the fluidized bed. The wear index is ≤1.5wt% / h, far superior to traditional catalysts, effectively reducing catalyst replenishment costs and environmental pollution.
[0029] 6. The prepared catalyst has excellent hydrorefining performance: desulfurization rate ≥99.5%, denitrification rate ≥95%, and maintains high activity after continuous operation for more than 2000 hours under fluidized bed conditions, meeting the stringent requirements of industrial applications.
