Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of diesel anti-wear agent production technology, specifically relating to an anti-blocking system for the diesel anti-wear agent production process. Background Technology
[0002] With increasingly stringent environmental requirements in the oil refining industry, the sulfur and nitrogen content in diesel fuel has been strictly controlled. This has led to a gradual decrease in the natural anti-wear components (sulfur and nitrogen compounds) in diesel products, resulting in a decline in their anti-wear performance. Currently, the method to improve the lubricity of low-sulfur, low-nitrogen diesel fuel is to add anti-wear agents.
[0003] Currently used diesel fuel anti-wear agents are mainly unsaturated fatty acid and unsaturated fatty acid ester type anti-wear agents. The production process of unsaturated fatty acid ester type anti-wear agents uses long-chain unsaturated fatty acids and polyols as raw materials. After esterification under the catalysis of inorganic acids, the products undergo washing, neutralization, and drying to obtain the final ester-based anti-wear agent. The production process of unsaturated acid type anti-wear agents uses oleic acid as raw material, and involves freeze centrifugation, washing, demulsification, and drying to obtain the final unsaturated acid type anti-wear agent product.
[0004] Existing technologies disclose diesel anti-wear agent production and post-treatment systems. For example, multiple discontinuous stirred tanks are used as alcohol washing and alkali washing devices, undergoing multiple impurity removal and refining processes to improve the quality of the anti-wear agent product. Alternatively, multiple water washing devices are connected in parallel to transform diesel anti-wear agent production into a semi-intermittent, semi-continuous process, improving production efficiency. All of these processes employ ordinary centrifugation and demulsification processes to achieve post-treatment of the anti-wear agent, but the composition of the post-treatment system varies significantly depending on the anti-wear agent, resulting in poor universality. Because the palmitic acid-water mixture from centrifugation is severely emulsified, it requires heating to demulsify. However, during the separation process after demulsification, some palmitic acid dissolves in the water. During water separation, as the temperature of the palmitic acid oil phase and the palmitic acid-containing aqueous phase gradually decreases in the pipeline, the palmitic acid gradually solidifies or precipitates, forming a solid phase that blocks the pipeline, causing the anti-wear agent unit to shut down and significantly reducing the company's production efficiency. Utility Model Content

Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0027] In a typical embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, a diesel anti-wear agent production process anti-clogging system is provided, including a first mixing vessel 101, a centrifuge 2, a second mixing vessel 102, a first centrifugal pump 301, a third mixing vessel 103, a second centrifugal pump 302, and a third centrifugal pump 303.

The bottom outlet of the centrifuge 2 is connected to the top inlet of the third mixing vessel 103 via a first jacketed, heated conveying pipe 401. The third mixing vessel 103... The bottom outlet of the mixing vessel 103 is connected to the second centrifugal pump 302 and the third centrifugal pump 303 respectively through pipes, and the second centrifugal pump 302 and the third centrifugal pump 303 are connected in parallel; the second centrifugal pump 302 is connected to the sewage tank through the second jacketed and heated conveying pipe 402; the third centrifugal pump 303 is connected to the palmitic acid tank through the third jacketed and heated conveying pipe 403; the top of the first centrifugal pump 301 is provided with an outlet, which conveys water to the first jacketed and heated conveying pipe 401, the second jacketed and heated conveying pipe 402 and the third jacketed and heated conveying pipe 403 respectively through pipes.
[0028] The first mixing vessel 101 has a feed inlet on its top side wall, which is connected to the water phase pipeline and the oil phase pipeline respectively; the first mixing vessel 101 has a discharge outlet at its bottom, which is connected to the inlet of the first centrifugal pump 201.
[0029] Furthermore, to improve the versatility of the anti-clogging system provided for the production process of diesel anti-wear agents, the reaction type of the first stirred reactor can be adjusted according to the type of anti-wear agent, thereby meeting the requirements for continuous production of unsaturated fatty acid and unsaturated fatty acid ester type anti-wear agents. When the anti-wear agent is an unsaturated fatty acid, the first stirred reactor 101 is an emulsification stirred reactor, where the aqueous phase pipeline and the oil phase undergo cryogenic emulsification at low temperature (0-5℃, time 2-4h) in the first stirred reactor 101 to obtain the product; when the anti-wear agent is an unsaturated fatty acid ester type anti-wear agent, the first stirred reactor 101 is a reaction stirred reactor, typically using C16-C18 unsaturated fatty acids (such as oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid), whose double bond structure can enhance molecular adsorption capacity, reacting with polyols (ethylene glycol, glycerol, etc.) through esterification reactions between the hydroxyl groups and carboxyl groups of fatty acids to generate ester compounds, while simultaneously releasing water molecules. For example, oleic acid reacts with glycerol to generate glyceryl oleate.
[0030] Centrifuge 2 is used to centrifuge and separate the product from the outlet of the first stirred tank 101 to obtain a crude anti-wear agent and a palmitic acid-water emulsion phase. The first centrifuge 2 has outlets at both the top and bottom. The top outlet of centrifuge 2 is used to discharge the crude anti-wear agent; the bottom outlet of centrifuge 2 is used to discharge the palmitic acid-water emulsion phase.

The pipe is equipped with a jacket, through which a hot medium, such as hot water, can be introduced. The jacket also has a circulating water outlet. The third stirred tank 103 is used for high-temperature demulsification and separation of the palmitic acid-water emulsion phase.
[0031] The second mixing vessel 102 has a first feed inlet and a second feed inlet on its top sides, respectively. The outlet of the centrifuge 2 is connected to the first feed inlet of the second mixing vessel 102 via a pipe. The outlet of the centrifuge 2 delivers coarse anti-wear agent to the second mixing vessel 102 for water washing via the pipe. The second feed inlet of the second mixing vessel 102 is connected to the water phase, which adds water to the second mixing vessel 102. The bottom of the second mixing vessel 102 has a discharge outlet for discharging the mixture of high-temperature hot water and anti-wear agent. The discharge outlet at the bottom of the second mixing vessel 102 is connected to the first centrifugal pump 301 via a pipe. The first centrifugal pump 301 uses centrifugal force to draw the liquid (high-temperature hot water) into the pump and accelerate its flow, then discharges the liquid at high speed.

The high-temperature hot water in the jacket is used to heat the palmitic acid-water emulsion phase in the pipe to prevent it from crystallizing and clogging the pipe.
[0033] The bottom of the third stirred tank 103 is equipped with a discharge port for discharging the palmitic acid-water emulsion phase after high-temperature demulsification. The discharge port at the bottom of the third stirred tank 103 is connected to the second centrifugal pump 302 and the third centrifugal pump 303 via a three-way pipe, with the second and third centrifugal pumps connected in parallel. The second centrifugal pump 302 is connected to a wastewater tank via a second jacketed and heated conveying pipe 402 (containing palmitic acid wastewater, low-temperature palmitic acid coagulation, and precipitated blockage pipe). The second centrifugal pump 302 is used to separate the wastewater and discharge it into the jacketed and heated conveying pipe. The third centrifugal pump 303 is connected to a palmitic acid storage tank via a third jacketed and heated conveying pipe 403. The third centrifugal pump 303 is used to separate palmitic acid and discharge it into the jacketed and heated conveying pipe.
[0034] The working process of the anti-clogging system in the production process of diesel anti-wear agent of this utility model is as follows:
[0035] The aqueous and oil phases are respectively transported through pipelines to the top inlet of the first stirred tank 101, where they undergo cryogenic emulsification (0-5℃, 2-4h) or reaction at low temperature (usually C16-C18 unsaturated fatty acids (such as oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid), whose double bond structure enhances molecular adsorption capacity, and reacts with polyols (ethylene glycol, glycerol, etc.) through esterification reactions between the hydroxyl groups and the carboxyl groups of fatty acids to generate ester compounds, while releasing water molecules. For example, oleic acid reacts with glycerol to generate glyceryl oleate). The product is centrifuged by centrifuge 2 to obtain a crude anti-wear agent and a palmitic acid-water emulsion phase. The crude anti-wear agent is transported through the top outlet of centrifuge 2 to the second stirred tank 102 for water washing. The palmitic acid-water emulsion phase is transported through the bottom outlet of centrifuge 2 to the third stirred tank 103 for high-temperature demulsification separation.
[0036] The aqueous phase is also added to the second mixing vessel 102 through the second feed port at the top of the second mixing vessel 102. The bottom of the second mixing vessel 102 has a discharge port to discharge the mixture of high-temperature hot water and anti-wear agent. The first centrifugal pump 301 uses centrifugal force to draw the liquid (high-temperature hot water) into the pump and accelerate its flow, and then discharges the liquid from the pump body at high speed. The high-temperature hot water is then delivered to the first jacketed heating pipe 401, the second jacketed heating pipe 402, and the third jacketed heating pipe 403 for auxiliary heating of the delivery pipes.
[0037] The bottom of the third stirred tank 103 is equipped with a discharge port for discharging the palmitic acid-water emulsion phase after high-temperature demulsification. The discharge port at the bottom of the third stirred tank 103 is connected to the second centrifugal pump 302 and the third centrifugal pump 303 via pipes.
[0038] The second centrifugal pump 302 is connected to the sewage tank via a second jacketed and heated delivery pipe 402. The second centrifugal pump 302 is used to separate sewage and discharge it into the jacketed and heated delivery pipe. The third centrifugal pump 303 is connected to the palmitic acid storage tank via a third jacketed and heated delivery pipe 403. The third centrifugal pump 303 is used to separate palmitic acid and discharge it into the jacketed and heated delivery pipe.
[0039] The present invention provides an anti-blocking system for the production process of diesel anti-wear agent. The hot water phase (80-90℃) generated after the rough anti-wear agent is washed in the mixing tank is used to heat the discharge pipeline of palmitic acid and wastewater containing palmitic acid. This prevents the palmitic acid from solidifying or precipitating, ensures that the discharge pipeline is unobstructed, reduces the consumption of heating steam, ensures the normal production of the anti-wear agent unit, and improves the efficiency of the enterprise.
