Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of coal tar hydrogenation technology, specifically relating to a coal tar full-fraction hydrogenation system that can recycle top oil. Background Technology
[0002] Coal tar full-fraction hydrogenation is an advanced technology that transforms coal tar into clean fuels and chemical raw materials through deep processing. Its core principle is to remove metal impurities, ash, and heteroatoms such as sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen from coal tar through hydrogenation reactions, while saturating olefins and aromatics, thereby obtaining products such as diesel and naphtha that meet national standards, significantly improving resource utilization.
[0003] In the process of full-fraction hydrotreating of coal tar, top distillate is a common byproduct. It is the light fraction with a lower boiling point that is collected from the top of the vacuum distillation tower during the vacuum distillation of coal tar.
[0004] In existing coal tar full-fraction hydrotreating systems, the top oil is generally sent back to the tank farm as a substandard product and reprocessed in subsequent coal tar full-fraction hydrotreating processes. This process involves repeated processing, which increases the energy consumption of the unit. Utility Model Content

[0026] This invention provides a coal tar full-fraction hydrogenation system for the recyclable top-oil of coal tar. After hydrogenation treatment of the coal tar to be processed in a pretreatment unit, the hydrogenated coal tar is heated to 370°C using a heating device. The flow rate of the hydrogenated coal tar entering the vacuum distillation tower is controlled to prevent system overload and ensure effective separation. In the vacuum distillation tower, the hydrogenated coal tar undergoes vacuum fractionation, forming top-oil at the top.

[0036] See Figure 1This paper illustrates a schematic diagram of a coal tar full-fraction hydrogenation system with recyclable top oil according to this application, including: a pretreatment unit 1, a heating device 2, a vacuum tower 3, a top oil output device 4, a first-line vacuum oil output device 5, and a tank area unit 6; the pretreatment unit 1 is connected to the heating device 2 for hydrogenation pretreatment of the coal tar to be treated, to obtain hydrogenated coal tar; the heating device 2 is connected to the vacuum tower 3 for heating the hydrogenated coal tar to above 370°C; a flow control valve 21 is installed between the vacuum tower 3 and the heating device 2 to ensure that the flow rate of hydrogenated coal tar entering the vacuum tower 3 does not exceed 50 t / h; the top oil output device 4 is connected to the top of the vacuum tower 3; the first-line vacuum oil output device 5 is connected to the vacuum tower 3 and, through an output pipeline 51, to the tank area unit 6 for outputting diesel components; the top oil output device 4 is connected to the output pipeline 51.
[0037] In this embodiment, after the coal tar to be treated is hydrogenated by the pretreatment unit 1, the hydrogenated coal tar is heated to 370°C using the heating device 2. The flow rate of the hydrogenated coal tar entering the vacuum distillation tower 3 is controlled to achieve fine separation of all coal tar components, while preventing system overload from affecting the separation effect. The hydrogenated coal tar undergoes vacuum fractionation in the vacuum distillation tower 3, forming a top fraction oil at the top of the tower. Diesel components are obtained from the vacuum distillation tower 3 using the first-line output device 4. The top fraction oil after vacuum distillation has a distillation range and composition close to that of diesel components. Therefore, the top fraction oil and diesel components are mixed and sent to the tank area unit 6 for storage and subsequent application. The coal tar full-fraction hydrogenation system of this invention mixes the top fraction oil and diesel components for direct storage and utilization, avoiding the technical problems of treating the top fraction oil as a substandard product and repeatedly processing it, leading to system complexity and increased energy consumption in existing technologies.

The condensate pump 422 is connected to the oil-water separator 421 and the condensate circulation pipeline 401.
[0042] In this embodiment, the oil-water separator 421 is used to separate the extracted light oil gas into oil, water and non-condensable gases; the generated condensate is sent into the condensate circulation pipeline for device cooling or steam generation.

[0046] Optionally, the heating device 2 in this utility model is a pressure reducing furnace.
[0047] In this embodiment, hydrogenated coal tar is added using a vacuum furnace to ensure uniform heating of the hydrogenated coal tar and prevent localized coking.
[0048] Optionally, a guide valve 43 is provided between the top oil output device 4 and the output pipeline 51 in this utility model, and the top oil output device 4 is also connected to the top oil storage unit 10.
