Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of petroleum refining, and relates to a catalyst and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a hydrogenation catalyst and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous exploitation of oil, the proportion of heavy oil increases year by year. How to fully utilize heavy oil is the key to solving the energy problem, especially to improving energy utilization efficiency. The ebullated bed hydrogenation process has wide adaptability to raw materials, and can treat various inferior crude oil, residual oil, oil sand, asphalt oil, shale oil and other raw materials, remove various impurities to realize the lightening and cleaning of inferior heavy oil, convert heavy oil into high value-added light oil, and improve the economic benefit of enterprises. However, to achieve the above-mentioned goals, the continuous improvement of catalyst performance is the key.

[0003] With the increasingly stringent environmental protection regulations, the sulfur content of gasoline and diesel used by automobiles and fuel oil used by ships is required to be more stringent. With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the demand for gasoline and diesel in the world is slowing down, and the production of low-sulfur heavy ship fuel provides options for some refineries to maintain existing capacity or moderately utilize idle capacity. In order to meet the new needs of refineries, the ebullated bed hydrogenation technology needs to continuously improve the performance of its catalyst, especially the performance of the desulfurization catalyst, to meet the lower requirements of downstream devices for the sulfur content of raw oil.

[0004] CN104646008A discloses a poor quality heavy oil hydrodesulfurization and demetallization catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The catalyst uses alumina as a carrier and Ni-Mo as an active component, and the average pore diameter of the catalyst gradually increases from the center to the outer surface of the catalyst particle in the radial direction. The preparation method of the catalyst is to treat the carrier particle after molding and calcination with an acid solution with continuously increasing concentration. The catalyst provided by the present application has larger surface pore openings, open pores, excellent diffusion performance, high hydrodesulfurization and demetallization activity, and high activity stability. However, the active metal of the catalyst still uses the conventional impregnation method for loading, which makes the active metal have a strong interaction with the alumina carrier, the utilization rate of the active metal is not high, and the further improvement of the catalyst activity is limited.

[0005] CN105772005A discloses a hydrogenation catalyst, a preparation method thereof and a method for heavy oil hydrodesulfurization. The hydrogenation catalyst includes a carrier and an active metal component, and the active metal component is distributed in a double layer along the radial direction of the carrier. The active metal component of the core layer is CoO and MoO3, and the active metal component of the shell layer is NiO and MoO3 and / or WO3. The hydrogenation catalyst provided by the present application has high hydrodemetallization, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodecarbon and hydrodenitrogenation activity. However, the conversion capacity of macromolecules such as asphaltene of the catalyst still needs to be further improved. SUMMARY

[0045] 2. The preparation method of the residue hydrodesulfurization catalyst provided by the application, wherein the organic polymer is decomposed into small molecules in water after heat treatment, so that the aqueous solution has high cohesiveness, and the interaction force between pseudo-boehmite is enhanced, and the strength and wear resistance of the carrier are improved.

[0046] 3. The preparation method of the residue hydrodesulfurization catalyst provided by the application, wherein the organic polymer is modified by acid, the molecular size is reduced and the cohesiveness is weakened, and the organic polymer is mixed with pseudo-boehmite to increase the proportion of mesopores in the core layer of the carrier. After the organic polymer is reacted with the alkaline compound, the molecular size does not change, but the cohesiveness is poor, and the organic polymer is mixed with pseudo-boehmite, which mainly utilizes the pore expansion function to increase the proportion of macropores in the shell layer of the carrier.
