Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of high-density special fuel preparation technology, specifically relating to a catalyst for preparing high-density special fuel from high-temperature coal tar, its grading method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Coal tar is a major byproduct of coal pyrolysis. High-temperature coal tar is primarily composed of aromatic and heterocyclic compounds, mostly polycyclic and fused-ring compounds with or without side chains, and heterocyclic compounds containing oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen. Its pitch content is typically above 50%, making it generally viscous with a relative density greater than water and exhibiting a black or dark brown color. Furthermore, high-temperature coal tar contains significant amounts of sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, and mechanical impurities, making it prone to condensation reactions. This makes its hydrogenation process relatively difficult. The hydrogenation products of high-temperature coal tar are polycyclic alkanes, whose unique composition gives them high density and volumetric calorific value, making them ideal for processing into high-density fuels. However, due to their significant compositional variations, they should be modified before being used to produce high-density fuels.

[0003] High-density specialty fuels typically refer to jet fuels used for special purposes, such as military aircraft, high-altitude probes, and rockets. They are characterized by high energy density, low combustion temperature, high thermal efficiency, and good combustion controllability. The main components of high-density specialty fuels are hydrocarbons, such as cycloalkanes and their isomers, along with additives such as antiknock agents and heat stabilizers. The chemical composition of high-density specialty fuels has a significant impact on carbon deposit formation. In engines, aromatic hydrocarbons, especially bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, readily form carbon deposits. Therefore, the content of bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and other aromatic substances in high-density specialty fuels must be strictly limited. Coal tar hydrogenation can remove, crack, or isomerize some aromatic compounds to produce clean gasoline and diesel, although the aromatic content is still relatively high. By improving and optimizing the hydrogenation process and technology, the oil can be hydrogenated and isomerized to obtain high-density coal-based specialty oils. The catalyst is the core of the entire hydrogenation reaction. By improving the hydrogenation catalyst system, the quality of the oil can be significantly improved. Therefore, this invention aims to produce high-density, high-flash-point, low-crystallization-point, and component-concentrated high-performance jet fuel through coal tar hydrogenation.

[0004] Since the 1950s, the main jet fuels used in the United States have been the RJ-4, RJ-5, RJ-7, JP-5, JP-9, and JP-10 series. These fuels are all synthetic hydrocarbon fuels with high production costs. The Pennsylvania Energy Research Institute (Fuel Processing Technology 89 (2008) 364-378) mixed catalytic cracked diesel (LCO) and coal-based liquefied petroleum oil at a 1:1 volume ratio and then hydrogenated them to obtain the primary coal-based jet fuel, JP-900. The density (20 °C) of RP-3 jet fuel, the most widely used dual-use military and civilian jet fuel in my country, ranges from 0.775 to 0.830 g / cm³. 3 Its volumetric calorific value is approximately 35.5 MJ / L, while the density (at 20 °C) of high-energy jet fuels is greater than 0.900 g / cm³. 3 Its volumetric calorific value is higher than 38.3 MJ / L. Therefore, researching the use of high-temperature coal tar as raw material to convert aromatics into cycloalkanes through hydrogenation to produce high-density jet fuel is an effective way to utilize high-temperature coal tar for high value and is also the preferred route for developing coal-based special fuels in my country.

[0005] Chinese patent CN105694970A discloses a method for producing high-density jet fuel by hydrogenating low-temperature coal tar. The method involves hydrogenating medium-low temperature coal tar using a hydrogenation protective catalyst and a hydrogenation refining catalyst, followed by clay refining of the crude jet fuel to obtain high-density No. 6 jet fuel with a density of 910 kg / m³. 3 The aromatic hydrocarbon content is 7%, the low-temperature freezing point is -48℃, and the yield is about 60%. However, the patented multi-stage hydrogenation (protection + purification) combined process with fractionation and clay purification has a long process, large equipment investment, and the clay needs to be replaced regularly, generating solid waste and secondary treatment costs.

[0006] Chinese patent CN 118725889A discloses a method for preparing high-density coal-based jet fuel by modifying coal tar with NA anhydride. This method utilizes a modifier to perform ring-enhancing modification on coal tar distillate, increasing the content of tricyclic or higher-ring components in the coal tar distillate by approximately 20%. The modifier used is NA anhydride, and the catalyst is a Lewis acid. The solvent / extractant needs to be recovered, making the process complex. The content of tricyclic or higher-ring compounds increases from 14.91% to 33.18%. This patent does not perform aromatic saturation; the carbon deposits from aromatic combustion cannot be directly used as jet fuel and require subsequent hydrogenation treatment. Chinese patent CN 118813292A discloses a method for synthesizing high-density fuel based on phenolic molecules in coal tar. It utilizes dibenzyl ether as a modifier to achieve ring-enhancing modification of the coal tar, thereby increasing the density and calorific value of the high-density fuel. In a fixed-bed reactor, Pd / C is added, resulting in a catalyst density >1.08 g / ml, a net calorific value of 42-43 MJ / L, and a freezing point ≤-70℃. However, in this patent, the phenols are not hydrotreated for deoxygenation, and the combustion of oxygenated compounds produces water. Therefore, this fuel cannot be directly used as a special jet fuel and requires hydrotreating to obtain the final product.

[0007] Coal tar hydrogenation technology removes sulfur, nitrogen, metals, and other heteroatoms from coal tar under specific temperature, pressure, and catalyst conditions, and saturates it with aromatic compounds, thereby producing a blending component for clean fuel oil. Low-temperature and medium-temperature coal tar differ significantly in properties from high-temperature coal tar. Current technologies for hydrogenating heavy components of high-temperature coal tar exhibit poor catalyst conversion efficiency, resulting in products with substandard density and aromatic content.

[0008] Based on the problems existing in the prior art, this invention focuses on directional regulation of ring structure, improvement of heavy component conversion, and optimization of the performance of graded hydrogenation catalysts to achieve efficient conversion of coal tar into high-density clean fuel oil and enhance product market competitiveness. Summary of the Invention

[0010] This invention uses high-temperature coal tar as raw material.

It also boasts high density, high yield, and low pour point. The hydrogenation catalyst used in this invention has NiO, MoO3, and WO3 as active metal components, with the remainder being a support. The support consists of γ-Al2O3, Y, and SAPO-11 molecular sieves, all of which are commercially available. The catalyst is prepared via a saturated impregnation method. This invention utilizes high-temperature coal tar hydrogenation to produce high-density specialty fuels in a fixed-bed reactor. The designed catalyst gradation method results in high hydrogenation efficiency, eliminates solvent recovery steps, and allows for industrial application of the catalyst. The entire preparation process is simple to operate. The catalyst gradation method described in this invention possesses high demetallization capability, high water resistance, excellent hydrotreating saturated isomerization activity, and stability. It can meet the catalyst performance requirements for long-term stable operation of hydrotreating units. Simultaneously, it improves the type of oil hydrotreating, reduces the degree of cracking, and increases saturated isomerization reactions. Therefore, under suitable process conditions, it can produce high-density specialty fuels with a higher yield. These high-density specialty fuels have a density ≥0.9 g / ml, a calorific value ≥42.5 MJ / L, and a pour point ≤-56℃. Existing tar hydrotreating enterprises can produce high-density specialty fuels after improvements, significantly enhancing their economic and social benefits.

[0027] The present invention will be further illustrated by the following embodiments, but is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0028] Table 1 Characteristics of High-Temperature Coal Tar

[0029] Table 1 lists the characteristic indicators of high-temperature coal tar. The data shows that high-temperature coal tar has a high density, high pitch content (approximately 55%), and is rich in valuable chemicals such as naphthalene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, acenaphthene, pyrene, carbazole, and cresol. Pitch can be used as a raw material for carbon-based materials, therefore it requires processing. Traditional coal tar is processed through distillation and other methods to obtain chemicals. For high-temperature coal tar to become a special clean fuel, it must undergo hydrogenation treatment to remove sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, metallic impurities, and saturated cracking of olefins and aromatics.

The solution is stirred at 60℃ until completely dissolved to obtain an active component solution. This active component solution is then used to impregnate a γ-Al2O3 support for 5 hours, followed by drying at 20℃ for 5 hours and then at 100℃ for 6 hours. The temperature is then increased to 550℃ at a rate of 6℃ / min and calcined for 6 hours to obtain the catalyst. The percentages of each component are shown in Table 2.

[0033] Preparation method of hydrocracking catalyst: Ammonium metatungstate, a tungsten trioxide precursor, and nickel nitrate (Ni(NO3)2·6H2O), a nickel monoxide precursor, are added to distilled water according to their concentration ratios. The mixture is stirred at 60°C until completely dissolved to obtain an active component solution. This active component solution is then used to impregnate a γ-Al2O3 / Y support (γ-Al2O3 / Y mass ratio 8:2) for 5 hours. After impregnation, the solution is dried at 20°C for 5 hours and then at 100°C for 6 hours. Finally, the temperature is increased to 550°C at a rate of 6°C / min, and calcined for 6 hours to obtain the catalyst. The percentages of each component are shown in Table 2.

[0034] Preparation method of hydroisomerizer: Ammonium metatungstate, a tungsten trioxide precursor, and nickel nitrate (Ni(NO3)2·6H2O), a nickel monoxide precursor, were added to distilled water according to their concentration ratios. The mixture was stirred at 60°C until completely dissolved to obtain an active component solution. The support γ-Al2O3 / SAPO-11 (γ-Al2O3 / SAPO-11 mass ratio 8:2) was then impregnated with the active component solution for 5 h, dried at 20°C for 5 h, and then dried at 100°C for 6 h. Finally, the temperature was increased to 550°C at a rate of 6°C / min, and calcined for 6 h to obtain the catalyst. The percentages of each component are shown in Table 2.

After sulfidation, the temperature was allowed to drop to room temperature before switching to the feed line to raise the temperature to 320°C. Coal tar feedstock was then pumped in at 4 MPa, with a hydrogen-to-oil volume ratio of 800 and a liquid hourly space velocity of 0.1 h⁻¹. -1 Hydrogenation was carried out under specific conditions. After 24 hours of reaction, the oil product was obtained. The fraction distilled at 190-300℃ was then separated to obtain the high-density special fuel.

[0046] Table 3 Process parameters and special fuel indicators of the embodiments .

[0047] Comparative Example 1 Compared to Example 1, the high-temperature coal tar was replaced with medium- and low-temperature coal tar, while other quantities remained unchanged. The resulting high-density fuel performance was tested and found to have a density of 830 kg / m³. 3 It has a net calorific value of 39.4 MJ / kg, a freezing point of -48℃, and an aromatic hydrocarbon content of 10.50%.

[0048] Comparative Example 2 Compared to Example 1, the hydroisomerization catalyst was replaced with the same amount of hydrorefining agent, while other quantities remained unchanged. The resulting high-density fuel performance test showed a density greater than 950 kg / m³. 3 It has a net calorific value of 39.6 MJ / kg, a freezing point of -57℃, and an aromatic hydrocarbon content of 22.05%.

[0049] Comparative Example 3 Compared to Example 1, the hydrocracking catalyst was replaced with the same amount of hydrorefining agent, while other quantities remained unchanged. The resulting high-density fuel performance test showed a density greater than 880 kg / m³. 3 It has a net calorific value of 39.1 MJ / kg, a freezing point of -49℃, and an aromatic hydrocarbon content of 8.55%.

[0050] Comparative Example 4 Compared to Example 1, the hydrorefining catalyst was replaced with the same amount of hydrocracking agent, while other quantities remained unchanged. The resulting high-density fuel performance test showed a density greater than 820 kg / m³. 3 It has a net calorific value of 39.5 MJ / kg, a freezing point of -44℃, and an aromatic hydrocarbon content of 8.59%.

[0051] Based on the above test results, it can be seen that the high-density fuel of this application has good quality (considering all performance indicators). Comparative Example 1 has a low density, Comparative Example 2 has a high density but a high aromatic content, which causes carbon deposits and is not conducive to combustion. Comparative Examples 3 and 4 have low density and calorific value.
