Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of petrochemical technology, specifically to a catalyst for the conversion of light naphtha (mainly referring to hydrocarbons rich in C5 and C6 hydrocarbons), its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In petroleum processing, units such as atmospheric and vacuum distillation, catalytic cracking, and hydrocracking all produce light naphtha rich in C5 and C6 hydrocarbons. The light naphtha from atmospheric and vacuum distillation units and hydrocracking units is composed mainly of alkanes, while the light naphtha from catalytic cracking units contains some olefins. From a carbon chain structure perspective, light naphtha is dominated by isomeric hydrocarbons, especially the light naphtha from catalytic cracking and hydrocracking units, where the isomeric hydrocarbon content reaches over 70%.

[0003] There are currently two main ways to utilize light naphtha: one is to use it directly as a gasoline blending component, but due to the influence of saturated vapor pressure, the amount added when used as a gasoline blending component is relatively low; the other is to use it as a feedstock for steam cracking to produce ethylene, but due to its high degree of isomerization, the yield of trienes is low when used as an ethylene feedstock, and its hydrocarbon composition needs to be further improved.

[0004] CN201510944765.5 discloses a method for producing high-octane gasoline by isomerization of light naphtha. While maintaining the product performance of traditional process methods (the highest research octane number RON can reach 92), it simplifies and shortens the production process, saves investment, reduces energy consumption, makes operation and maintenance easier, and reduces production costs.

[0005] CN201510379026.6 discloses a method for optimizing the utilization of light naphtha. This method first passes the light naphtha through an adsorption separation unit to obtain an adsorbed oil rich in isoalkanes and a desorbed oil rich in n-alkanes. The desorbed oil can be directly used as feedstock for ethylene cracking. The adsorbed oil is then passed through a distillation unit to obtain gasoline blending material rich in isocyanate C6 and high-purity isopentane. This process uses adsorption separation, which has high energy consumption. Summary of the Invention

[0042] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0043] The light naphtha conversion catalyst of this invention comprises ZSM-5 molecular sieve and macroporous alumina supported on Group VIB and Group VIII metals, and controls the amount of Brønsted acid (B acid) in the catalyst. A The total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk catalyst phase I mt molar ratio I A / I mt The value is 5–0.5. Furthermore, the total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals on the catalyst surface is I. ms The total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk catalyst phase I mtThe molar ratio is 0.60–0.90. The catalyst of this invention can significantly improve the conversion activity of light naphtha and the proportion of n-alkanes in the products, while reducing the carbon deposition content. Specifically, the catalyst of this invention exhibits low hydrogenation activity within the molecular sieve channels, which is beneficial for improving the conversion reaction activity. Simultaneously, due to the restriction of the molecular sieve channels, the reaction intermediate olefins are less prone to carbon deposition. The n-olefins or small molecule olefins obtained from the conversion of light hydrocarbons diffuse out of the molecular sieve channels and rapidly contact the hydrogenation centers on the macroporous alumina, undergoing a saturation reaction, thus preventing carbon deposition and improving catalyst stability.

[0044] In the preparation method of the catalyst of this invention, Group VIB and VIII metals are first supported on macroporous alumina, then mixed with ZSM-5 molecular sieves, shaped, and calcined to obtain the catalyst. The inventors have discovered that by comprehensively coordinating each step, the amount of Brønsted acid (B acid) in the catalyst can be controlled. A The total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk catalyst phase I mt molar ratio I A / I mt The concentration is 5–0.5. Furthermore, by controlling the impregnation conditions, the total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals on the catalyst surface is adjusted to I0.5. ms The total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk catalyst phase I mt The molar ratio is controlled between 0.60 and 0.90. This catalyst, used in the conversion of light naphtha, can significantly improve the conversion rate and the proportion of n-alkanes in the product, while also reducing the carbon deposit content.

[0045] This invention introduces a small amount of olefin-rich stream into the light naphtha conversion process. The introduced olefins can rapidly react with the acidic centers of the catalyst to generate carbocations. After the carbocations complete the reaction, they continue to propagate, allowing the reaction to proceed continuously, thus acting as an initiator. The metal in the catalyst no longer needs to complete the dehydrogenation initiation process; it only needs to complete the hydrogenation to avoid catalyst deactivation, thereby enabling the reaction to proceed at a lower metal content. Detailed Implementation

[0046] The following examples and comparative examples further illustrate the role and effect of the technical solution of the present invention, but the following examples do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] In this invention, the total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals on the catalyst surface is I msThe elemental composition and state of the catalyst surface (3 nm–10 nm) were determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) using a Thermofisher Multilab 2000 electron spectrometer. The excitation source was Mg Kα, and the cathode voltage and current were 13 kV and 20 mA, respectively. The electron binding energy was calibrated using C1s (284.6 eV). The data obtained directly from XPS are mass percentages. ms The values ​​are converted to mol / g.

[0048] In this invention, the total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk phase of the catalyst is I mt The results were obtained by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) analysis using a ZSX100e X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. The spectral line was Kα, the crystal was LiF1, the target material was Rh, the detector was SC scintillation, the timing was 20 s, and the optical atmosphere was vacuum. The data obtained directly from XRF are mass percentages. mt The values ​​are converted to mol / g. The total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the bulk catalyst refers to the total amount of Group VIB and Group VIII metals in the entire catalyst.

[0049] In this invention, the amount of carbon deposited on the catalyst is measured by an infrared sulfur and carbon analyzer. A high-frequency infrared carbon and sulfur analyzer of EMIA-820V from HORIBA Corporation of Japan is used. The high-frequency induction heating furnace has an output power of 2300W and a frequency of 20MHz. The sample heating temperature is 1800℃. The carbon content of the catalyst is calculated based on the peak area of ​​the vibrational spectrum of CO2 generated by the combustion of carbon deposits.

[0050] In this invention, the amount of Brønsted acid in the catalyst is I. A Measurements were taken using a pyridine infrared spectroscopy device. The powdered catalyst was compressed into tablets, evacuated, and degassed at 450°C for 2 hours. After the temperature dropped to room temperature, the kinetic diameter was measured... Pyridine molecules are used as probe molecules to measure the infrared spectrum of chemical desorption and calculate the amount of Brønsted acid (B acid) adsorption. Because the diameter of pyridine molecules is smaller than that of molecular sieve channels, this method can obtain the amount of B acid, expressed in mol / g.

[0051] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, all percentages (%) in the embodiments and comparative examples refer to mass fractions.

The macroporous alumina is a commercially available product with a pore volume of 1.1 cm³. 3 / g, specific surface area is 350cm² 2 / g.

[0053] In this invention, the conversion rate of light naphtha and the proportion of n-alkanes in the product are calculated as follows:

[0054] Conversion rate = (mass of isomeric C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock - mass of isomeric C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in product) / (mass of isomeric C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock) × 100%;

[0055] The proportion of n-alkane = mass of n-alkane in the product / total mass of the product × 100%, where n-alkane includes ethane, propane, n-butane, n-pentane and n-hexane.

[0056] In this invention, the olefin-rich stream introduced in each example is a mixed olefin of butene, pentene, and hexene. The olefin content refers to the total content of butene, pentene, and hexene.

[0057] In this invention, in each example, the nickel source used is nickel nitrate, and the tungsten source is ammonium metatungstate.
