Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of petrochemical technology, specifically to a method for processing straight-run light naphtha (mainly referring to hydrocarbons rich in C5 and C6 hydrocarbons). Background Technology
[0002] Straight-run light naphtha is a light component obtained from crude oil through atmospheric distillation. Its content varies considerably depending on the origin of the crude oil, typically ranging from 1 wt% to 10 wt%. Straight-run light naphtha is mainly composed of C5 and C6 saturated hydrocarbons, with isomeric hydrocarbons comprising 20 wt% to 40 wt%. It is commonly used as a feedstock for ethylene production via steam cracking.
[0003] The yields of ethylene and trienes vary significantly when hydrocarbons with different structures are used as feedstocks for steam cracking ethylene. For example, isoalkanes such as isobutane, isopentane, and isohexane yield ethylene at 12.2%, 21.9%, and 24.2%, respectively, and triene yields at 37.9%, 43.9%, and 57.2%, respectively; while n-alkanes such as n-butane, n-pentane, and n-hexane yield ethylene at 40.8%, 41.8%, and 39.3%, respectively, and triene yields at 61.1%, 62.8%, and 61.6%, respectively. This indicates that the yields of ethylene and trienes from isoalkanes are significantly lower than those from n-alkanes. Increasing the proportion of n-alkanes in straight-run light naphtha is key to improving the yields of ethylene and trienes. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a method for processing straight-run light naphtha, which can effectively increase the content of n-hydrocarbons in straight-run light naphtha, thereby significantly increasing the olefin yield of steam cracking ethylene production units.

Preferably, based on the weight of the light naphtha conversion catalyst, the content of modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 50wt%–75wt%, the content of macroporous alumina is 20wt%–30wt%, and the total content of Group VIB and Group VIII metals (calculated as oxides) is 1.0wt%–5.0wt%. Further, the Group VIB metal is preferably molybdenum and / or tungsten, and the Group VIII metal is preferably cobalt and / or nickel. Further, in the macroporous alumina loaded with Group VIB and Group VIII metals, the mass ratio of Group VIB metals (calculated as oxides) to Group VIII metals (calculated as oxides) is 2.0–6.0.
[0013] Furthermore, the pore volume of the macroporous alumina is 0.8–1.5 cm³.3 / g, specific surface area of 200-400m² 2 / g.

[0015] Furthermore, the preparation method of the hydrogenation conversion catalyst includes the following steps:
[0016] (1) Pore expansion treatment of ZSM-5 molecular sieve;
[0017] (2) Remove non-framework aluminum from step (1) to obtain modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve;
[0018] (3) Macroporous alumina was impregnated with an impregnation solution containing Group VIB and Group VIII metals and then calcined to obtain macroporous alumina loaded with Group VIB and Group VIII metals.
[0019] (4) The modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve and macroporous alumina loaded with Group VIB and Group VIII metals were mixed, shaped, and calcined to obtain a hydroconversion catalyst.

The properties of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve are as follows: SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio 30-100, specific surface area 300-450 m² / g. 2 / g, pore volume 0.15~0.20cm³ 3 / g.
[0021] Further, in step (1), the pore-expanding treatment can be one or more of acid treatment, alkali treatment, and hydrothermal treatment, preferably hydrothermal treatment. The temperature of the hydrothermal treatment is 400-700℃, preferably 500-600℃, the time is 0.5-5h, preferably 1-2h, and the pressure is 0.05-0.5MPa, preferably 0.1-0.3MPa.
[0022] Further, in step (2), the method for removing non-skeletal aluminum can be a buffer solution method. The buffer solution used is one or more of oxalic acid-ammonium oxalate solution and acetic acid-ammonium acetate solution. The pH value of the buffer solution is 4.5-6.5, preferably 5.0-6.0. The molar concentration of the organic acid in the buffer solution is 0.1-1.0 mol / L. The liquid-solid volume ratio of the buffer solution to the molecular sieve obtained in step (1) is 3:1-10:1.
[0023] Further, in step (2), the specific process for removing non-skeletal aluminum is as follows: the molecular sieve obtained in step (1) is mixed with a buffer solution and stirred, the treatment temperature is 40-80℃, the treatment time is 0.5-3h, and then solid-liquid separation (e.g., vacuum filtration) is performed; and the above operation is repeated 2-4 times.
[0024] Furthermore, the impregnation in step (3) is performed using a pressure impregnation method.
[0025] Furthermore, the pressure impregnation includes: mixing macroporous alumina with an impregnation solution containing Group VIB and Group VIII metals, and impregnating in a closed atmosphere under nitrogen.
[0026] Furthermore, the impregnation conditions include: a pressure of 0.5–3.0 MPa, a temperature of 60–80 °C, and an impregnation time of 1–4 h.
[0027] Further, the impregnation is preferably carried out under stirring at a stirring rate of 100–300 rpm. Further, after impregnation, stirring and heating are stopped, and the mixture is allowed to stand for 2–4 hours until cooled to room temperature. The resulting material is first subjected to conventional filtration and drying, and then calcined to obtain macroporous alumina loaded with Group VIB and Group VIII metals. The drying temperature is 100°C–150°C, and the drying time is 2–4 hours; the calcination temperature is 400°C–600°C, and the calcination time is 3–5 hours.
[0028] Furthermore, in step (3), the pore volume of the macroporous alumina is 0.8–1.5 cm³. 3 / g, specific surface area of 200-400m² 2 / g.
[0029] Further, in step (3), the impregnation solution containing Group VIB and Group VIII metals contains one or more of tungsten or molybdenum salts as the source of the Group VIB metal, and one or more of nickel or cobalt salts as the source of the Group VIII metal. Further, in the impregnation solution containing Group VIB and Group VIII metals, the mass content of the Group VIB metal (calculated as oxide) is 3.0–30.0 g / 100 mL, and the mass content of the Group VIII metal (calculated as oxide) is 1.0–10.0 g / 100 mL.
[0030] Further, in step (3), the pH value of the impregnation solution containing Group VIB and Group VIII metals is 8.0 to 10.0. Further, there are no particular limitations on the pH adjuster used; conventional pH adjusters in the art can be used.
[0031] Furthermore, in step (4), the mass ratio of macroporous alumina loaded with Group VIB and Group VIII metals to modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 0.2 to 1.0.
[0032] Further, in step (4), the molding can be carried out using conventional methods in the art, such as extrusion molding. Conventional molding aids can be added during the molding process, such as at least one of extrusion aids and pectinic acids; the extrusion aid can be guar gum powder, and the pectinic acid can be at least one of citric acid and nitric acid, preferably citric acid and nitric acid. The amount of molding aid added accounts for 1.0% to 5.0% of the mass of the hydroconversion catalyst.
[0033] Further, in step (4), after molding, the catalyst is dried and calcined to obtain the catalyst. The drying temperature is 100℃~150℃, and the drying time is 2~4h; the calcination temperature is 400℃~600℃, and the calcination time is 3~5h.
[0034] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0035] 1. Compared to long-chain alkanes, the dehydrogenation process is more difficult to carry out during the conversion of light hydrocarbons. As the controlling step of the overall reaction, increasing the number of metal active centers can improve the dehydrogenation activity of the catalyst. In this invention, a small amount of olefin-rich stream is introduced. The olefins can rapidly react with the acidic centers of the catalyst to generate carbocations. After the generated carbocations complete the reaction, they continue to propagate, allowing the reaction to continue, thus acting as an initiator.
[0036] 2. The proportion of isoalkanes in straight-run naphtha is usually less than 50%, resulting in a low probability of contact between isoalkanes and the catalyst. The catalyst used in this invention employs ZSM-5 molecular sieves with a higher mesopore content, which promotes the contact and reaction between isoalkanes and acid centers in the feedstock, thereby improving the conversion selectivity of isoalkanes.
[0037] 3. In the catalyst of this invention, the hydrogenation metal is mainly supported on macroporous alumina, resulting in low hydrogenation activity within the molecular sieve channels, reducing carbocation saturation, and promoting the conversion of light naphtha. After the n-olefins or small molecule olefins obtained from the conversion of light hydrocarbons diffuse out of the molecular sieve channels, they rapidly contact the hydrogenation centers on the alumina, undergoing a saturation reaction, preventing carbon deposition, and improving catalyst stability.

[0045] In this invention, the conversion rate of light naphtha isohydrocarbons, the selectivity of isohydrocarbon conversion, and the proportion of n-alkanes in the products are calculated as follows:
[0046] Isomer hydrocarbon conversion rate = (mass of isomer C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock - mass of isomer C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in product) / (mass of isomer C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock) × 100%;
[0047] Isomer hydrocarbon conversion selectivity = (mass of isomer C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock - mass of isomer C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in product) / (mass of C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in feedstock - mass of C5 and C6 hydrocarbons in product) × 100%;
[0048] 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.
