TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of petrochemical industry, in particular to a system for producing light aromatic hydrocarbons from ethylene tar. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of China's ethylene industry, the production capacity of ethylene cracking device has been increasing year by year. Ethylene tar, a by-product with high polymerization degree produced in the process of ethylene cracking reaction of ethylene cracking raw material, its main component is condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbon with short alkyl side chain. The yield of ethylene tar is affected by cracking raw material and processing conditions, generally accounting for about 20% of ethylene production. Due to the characteristics of high polymerization and high carbon content, ethylene tar is currently mainly used to produce low value-added products such as road asphalt, fuel blending oil and carbon black, and the rich aromatic hydrocarbon resources in ethylene tar have not been fully utilized.
[0003] Chinese patent CN116004284A discloses a method and system for hydrogenation of ethylene tar to produce light hydrocarbons. After removing gum from the pretreated ethylene tar, the first liquid phase hydrogenation and the second gas phase hydrogenation are carried out to separate the light fraction and the heavy fraction in the range of 40-220℃, thereby increasing the production of high value-added light aromatic hydrocarbons or high octane gasoline blending components and recovering and separating heavy aromatic hydrocarbon solvent oil. The method can effectively reduce the content of olefinic aromatic hydrocarbons, indenes and condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons through hydrogenation treatment, but the aromatic hydrocarbon resources in the heavy aromatic hydrocarbon solvent oil are not fully utilized.
[0004] Chinese patent CN103102976A discloses a method for treating ethylene tar. The method fractionates the ethylene tar into light fraction and heavy fraction, mixes the heavy fraction with conventional coking raw material to carry out delayed coking reaction, and then mixes the coking diesel obtained with the light fraction of ethylene tar to purify naphthalene by rectification / crystallization. The method mainly focuses on improving the yield of chemical raw material naphthalene.
[0005] Chinese patent CN115141651A discloses a system and method for producing chemical raw materials by partitioning and intensifying the production of aromatic hydrocarbon-rich fraction oil. The method processes catalytic cracking diesel, ethylene tar and DCC diesel through a hydrogenation refining reactor to obtain hydrogenation refined products, and then transfers the hydrogenation refined products into light hydrocarbonization reactors with different catalysts to obtain liquid products with an aromatic hydrocarbon purity of 99.9wt% and gas products rich in n-alkanes, thereby realizing the full utilization of aromatic fraction oil. The method hydrogenates the ethylene tar as a whole, which has high requirements for the operation of the hydrogenation refining reactor, and the subsequent light hydrocarbonization process is a single pass, which limits the conversion depth of ethylene tar to produce light aromatic hydrocarbons.
[0006] Technical development and economic analysis of hydrogenation of ethylene tar to produce aromatics (Suying, He Laibin, Liaoning Chemical, Vol. 50, No. 12) discloses a technology for producing BTX light aromatics by three-stage hydrogenation of ethylene tar as raw material. However, this way has large equipment investment and high hydrogen consumption.
[0007] In summary, there is no relatively mature technology for producing light aromatics from ethylene tar in the market at present. Developing ethylene tar full-range production of light aromatics, fully utilizing the rich aromatic resources in ethylene tar, and converting ethylene tar into high-value light aromatics BTX product are effective development of the technical route for producing light aromatics from ethylene tar.

[0026] Example 1
[0027] The present invention discloses a system for producing light aromatic hydrocarbons from ethylene tar, comprising a flash device 2 for fractionating ethylene tar, a hydrogenation device 4 connected to the light fraction outlet of the flash device 2, and a coking tower 20 connected to the heavy fraction outlet of the flash device 2. A catalytic cracking riser 7 and a catalytic cracking fractionating tower 9 are sequentially connected downstream of the hydrogenation device 4, a coking fractionating tower 22 is connected downstream of the coking tower 20, a catalytic diesel outlet of the catalytic cracking fractionating tower 9 and a coking diesel outlet of the coking fractionating tower 22 are both connected to the hydrogenation device 4 through pipelines; a catalytic gasoline outlet of the catalytic cracking fractionating tower 9 and a coking gasoline outlet of the coking fractionating tower 22 are both connected to an aromatics combination device 15 through pipelines for pre-hydrogenation and aromatics extraction to obtain light aromatic hydrocarbons.
[0028] Specifically, the flash device 2 is a fractionation device for fractionating ethylene tar. The ethylene tar is cut and fractionated in the flash device 2. The cutting point is 250-350° C., so that the content of dicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the light fraction of the ethylene tar reaches the maximum.
[0029] The top of the flash unit 2 is provided with an ethylene tar light fraction outlet for discharging the ethylene tar light fraction fractionated therein. The ethylene tar light fraction outlet is connected to the hydrogenation unit 4 via the ethylene tar light fraction pipeline 3. In the hydrogenation unit 4, the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the ethylene tar light fraction are selectively hydrogenated and saturated into monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to obtain the hydrogenated light fraction. When the ethylene tar light fraction is selectively hydrogenated and saturated in the hydrogenation unit 4, the reaction temperature is selected to be 320-400°C, the hydrogen partial pressure is 5.0-10.0 MPa, and the volume space velocity is 0.5-3h -1 The hydrogen / oil volume ratio is 300 to 800:1. The catalyst for selective hydrogenation and saturation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons can be a combination of one or more of a hydrotreating catalyst and a hydrocracking catalyst. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the active metal in the hydrotreating catalyst includes one or more of nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, or tungsten. The mass of the active metal is 10% to 30%.
[0030] A hydrogenated light fraction pipeline 6 is provided between the hydrogenation unit 4 and the catalytic cracking riser 7 to transport the hydrogenated light fraction from the hydrogenation unit 4 to the catalytic cracking riser 7, where it undergoes a cracking reaction to produce products such as catalytic dry gas, catalytic liquefied gas, catalytic gasoline, catalytic diesel, and catalytic slurry oil. The cracking reaction in the catalytic cracking riser 7 is conducted at a temperature of 500-650°C, a catalyst-to-oil ratio of 8-14, a reaction pressure of 0.1-0.5 MPa (gauge pressure), a reaction time of 2-5 seconds, and atomized steam accounting for 1-5% by weight of the feed. Conventional catalytic cracking catalysts are used as catalysts.
[0031] The outlet at the upper end of the catalytic cracking riser 7 is connected with a separation unit for separating the mixed material, which is a settler, and a catalytic cracking regenerator 28 is installed at the lower part of the settler to regenerate and recycle the catalyst in the catalytic cracking riser 7.
[0032] The catalyst outlet of the catalytic cracking regenerator 28 is located at the lower side thereof and communicates with the catalyst inlet of the catalytic cracking riser 7, and the catalyst inlet of the catalytic cracking riser 7 is also located at the lower side thereof. The feed inlet for the hydrogenated light fraction into the catalytic cracking riser 7 is also located at the lower side thereof.
[0033] After the hydrogenated light fraction enters the catalytic cracking riser 7, catalytic cracking reaction occurs under the action of the catalyst, and the reacted mixed material is transported from the outlet at the upper end thereof to the settler, and the separated catalyst in the settler enters the catalytic cracking regenerator 28. The top of the settler is provided with a reaction oil gas pipeline 8 communicating with the catalytic cracking fraction column 9 to transport the separated reaction oil gas in the settler to the catalytic cracking fraction column 9.
[0034] The bottom of the catalytic cracking fraction column 9 is provided with a catalytic oil slurry pipeline 14 to discharge the fractionated catalytic oil slurry; the side of the catalytic cracking fraction column 9 is provided with a catalytic diesel outlet, and the fractionated catalytic diesel is transported to the ethylene tar light fraction pipeline 3 through the catalytic diesel pipeline 13 to flow into the hydrogenation device 4 together with the ethylene tar light fraction for hydrogenation saturation; other components fractionated in the catalytic cracking fraction column 9 enter the catalytic cracking naphtha tank 30 through the top outlet thereof, and are fractionated into catalytic rich gas, catalytic sewage and catalytic gasoline in the catalytic cracking naphtha tank 30. The catalytic cracking naphtha tank 30 is provided with a catalytic rich gas discharge pipeline 10 for discharging the catalytic rich gas, a catalytic sewage discharge pipeline 11 for discharging the catalytic sewage, and a catalytic gasoline pipeline 12 for discharging the catalytic gasoline, and the outlet of the catalytic gasoline pipeline 12 communicates with the aromatic complex device 15.
[0035] The flash device 2 heavy fraction outlet communicates with the ethylene tar heavy fraction pipeline 18 and the coking tower 20, and the coking heater 19 is arranged on the ethylene tar heavy fraction pipeline 18 to heat the ethylene tar heavy fraction entering the coking tower 20. The ethylene tar heavy fraction pipeline 18 is connected to the bottom of the coking tower 20, and the top of the coking tower 20 is provided with a coking oil gas pipeline 21 communicating with the coking fraction column 22.
[0036] The outlet of the catalytic slurry oil pipeline 14 is connected to the ethylene tar heavy fraction pipeline 18, and the connection point of the catalytic slurry oil pipeline 14 and the ethylene tar heavy fraction pipeline 18 is located upstream of the coking furnace 19, so that the catalytic slurry oil and the ethylene tar heavy fraction are heated together by the coking furnace 19 and then transported into the coking tower 20. Since the catalytic slurry oil is a heavy product obtained from catalytic cracking, it is difficult to handle. If it is recycled back to the catalytic cracking unit for cracking reaction, the product distribution of the catalytic cracking unit will be deteriorated. The delayed coking unit can handle relatively poor raw materials, and the yield of light aromatic hydrocarbons can be further improved by processing the catalytic slurry oil through the delayed coking unit.
[0037] The ethylene tar heavy fraction and the catalytic slurry oil are subjected to coking reaction in the coking tower 20 to obtain coking dry gas, coking liquefied gas, coking gasoline, coking diesel, coking wax oil and petroleum coke. The reaction temperature for the coking reaction is 420-500℃, the reaction pressure is 0.10-0.15 MPa, and the circulation ratio is 0.10-0.30.
[0038] The coking wax oil pipeline 27 is provided at the bottom of the coking fractionation tower 22 to discharge the coking wax oil fractionated. The coking diesel outlet is provided at the side of the coking fractionation tower 22, and the coking diesel pipeline 26 is used to transport the coking diesel fractionated to the ethylene tar light fraction pipeline 3, so that the coking diesel, the ethylene tar light fraction and the catalytic diesel are flowed into the hydrogenation unit 4 together for hydrogenation saturation. The other components fractionated in the coking fractionation tower 22 are discharged from the top outlet into the coking gasoline tank 31, and are fractionated into coking rich gas, coking sewage and coking gasoline in the coking secondary flow tank. The coking rich gas discharge pipeline 23 is provided on the coking gasoline tank 31 to discharge the coking rich gas, the coking sewage discharge pipeline 24 is provided to discharge the coking sewage, and the coking gasoline pipeline 25 is provided to discharge the coking gasoline. The outlet of the coking gasoline pipeline 25 is connected to the aromatic hydrocarbon combination unit 15.
[0039] The coking gasoline and the catalytic gasoline are subjected to pre-hydrogenation and aromatic hydrocarbon extraction in the aromatic hydrocarbon combination unit 15 to obtain light aromatic hydrocarbons (i.e. BTX light aromatic hydrocarbons) and raffinate gasoline. The aromatic hydrocarbon combination unit 15 is provided with the light aromatic hydrocarbon discharge pipeline 16 at the top and the raffinate gasoline discharge pipeline 17 at the bottom. The raffinate gasoline is discharged as a gasoline blending component. The pre-hydrogenation reaction temperature in the aromatic hydrocarbon combination unit 15 is 300-420℃, the hydrogen partial pressure is 2.5-3.5 MPa, the hydrogen / oil volume ratio is 300-500:1, the volume space velocity is 1.5-4 h -1 The extraction solvent is one or more of sulfolane, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethyl formamide, N-methyl pyrrolidone, N-formyl morpholine, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, pentaethylene glycol, methanol or acetonitrile. The mass ratio of the extraction solvent to the gasoline (including the catalytic gasoline and the coking gasoline) is 3-8:1, the extraction tower used for the aromatic hydrocarbon extraction has a top temperature of 80-190℃ and a pressure of 1.1-2.0 MPa.
[0040] By the method of the present application, the di- and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the light fraction of ethylene tar are hydrogenated to monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and the side chains of the aromatic hydrocarbons are broken by catalytic cracking, thereby reducing the hydrogen consumption. The heavy fraction is processed after being lightened by a delayed coking device, and there is no hydrogen consumption in the catalytic cracking and delayed coking processes. Therefore, the overall hydrogen consumption in the processing of ethylene tar is low, and the catalytic cracking and delayed coking devices are conventional lightening devices in a refinery, which generally do not need to be newly built, thereby reducing the investment cost.
[0041] Next, the system of the present application is used to produce light aromatic hydrocarbons from ethylene tar to test the performance of the system.

The obtained catalytic cracking reaction oil gas is fed into a catalytic cracking fractionating tower 9 through a reaction oil gas pipeline 8 to be fractionated. The catalytic rich gas is discharged through a catalytic rich gas discharge pipeline 10 to a subsequent gas separation unit to obtain low-carbon olefins such as ethylene and propylene. The catalytic cracking sewage is discharged through a catalytic sewage discharge pipeline 11. The catalytic gasoline is fed into an aromatic hydrocarbon combination device 15 through a catalytic gasoline pipeline 12 to be extracted to obtain light aromatic hydrocarbons such as BTX and raffinate gasoline.

[0044] The heavy fraction of ethylene tar and the catalytic oil slurry fractionated from the catalytic cracking fractionating tower 9 are preheated in a coking heating furnace 19 and then fed into a coking tower 20 to occur coking reaction.

The coking wax oil is discharged through a coking wax oil discharge pipeline 27. The coking gasoline is fed into the aromatic hydrocarbon combination device 15 through a coking gasoline pipeline 25 to be extracted to obtain light aromatic hydrocarbons such as BTX and raffinate gasoline. In this process, the catalytic cracking main air 29 is introduced into the catalytic cracking regenerator 28 to cyclically regenerate the catalytic cracking catalyst.
