Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a fluidized bed device and a method for using the device, belonging to the technical field of the chemical industry, and particularly relates to a device and a method for producing aromatic hydrocarbons from naphtha.

Background Art

[0002] Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, and xylene, generally referred to as BTX) are important organic chemical raw materials, and p-xylene (PX) is the most notable product among aromatic hydrocarbons. PX is mainly used to produce polyesters such as terephthalic acid (PTA), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT). In recent years, the production and consumption of p-xylene in China have been continuously increasing. In 2021, the total import volume of PX in China was about 13.65 million tons, and the trade dependence was about 38%.

[0003] The naphtha catalytic reforming technology is the main technical route for producing aromatic hydrocarbons. The composition of naphtha is very complex, and naphtha is not only the main raw material for catalytic reforming but also the main raw material for ethylene production by cracking, and the composition plays an important role in the economic benefits of the device. Generally speaking, raw material aromatic hydrocarbons with a high potential content and a medium distillation range are beneficial for catalytic reforming. However, a high content of straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons and a low content of naphthenic hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons are suitable for ethylene production by cracking. Usually, in order to achieve the full use of naphtha resources and the improvement of economic benefits, it is necessary to first separate the straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons in naphtha from naphthenic hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons. The former is used as a raw material for ethylene production, and the latter is used as a raw material for the catalytic reforming device.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] The distillation range of the naphtha fraction is wide, and it is difficult to effectively separate straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons from naphthenic hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons by general separation methods. In addition, it is difficult to convert straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons into aromatic hydrocarbons by catalytic reforming technology. In order to increase the potential content of the raw material aromatic hydrocarbons used in catalytic reforming, generally, it is necessary to distill the naphtha raw material used in catalytic reforming to separate the topping oil with a boiling point of less than 60°C. However, the fraction with a boiling point above 60°C still contains a large number of straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons that are difficult to convert into aromatic hydrocarbons. Therefore, the problem of converting straight-chain and branched-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons into aromatic hydrocarbons in a highly selective manner has always existed as a difficult and intense argument in the technological development for producing aromatic hydrocarbons using naphtha.

[0005] Due to the constraints of thermodynamic equilibrium, p-xylene in the xylene mixture produced by the naphtha catalytic reforming device only accounts for about 24%, and it is necessary to further increase the yield of p-xylene through isomerization separation technology. Therefore, increasing the content of p-xylene in the xylene mixture is an important method for reducing the energy consumption in p-xylene production.

[0060] This application may have the following beneficial effects. 1) According to this application, linear and branched aliphatic hydrocarbons can be effectively converted into aromatic hydrocarbons in a highly selective manner. The raw material has a wide range of applications, and aromatic hydrocarbons can be produced from naphtha with a low potential content of aromatic hydrocarbons. 2) According to this application, the aromatization of light alkanes is achieved by a riser reactor and a metal molecular sieve dual-functional catalyst. By doing so, in the technology for producing aromatic hydrocarbons from naphtha, the yield of aromatic hydrocarbons increases significantly. 3) In the aromatic hydrocarbon product generated by this application, the content of p-xylene in the xylene mixture exceeds 50 wt%, which is much higher than the thermodynamic equilibrium content (about 24 wt%). Therefore, the yield of p-xylene can be effectively increased, and the energy consumption required for the separation of p-xylene can be significantly reduced. 4) The device for producing aromatic hydrocarbons from naphtha in the present application comprises a fluidized bed reactor and a riser reactor. Since low-carbon alkanes are very stable and require a high reaction temperature, in the device for producing aromatic hydrocarbons from naphtha described in the present application, a high-temperature regenerated catalyst first enters the riser reactor and contacts the low-carbon alkane. The low-carbon alkane becomes the target of the aromatization reaction under catalysis, thereby increasing the yield of aromatic hydrocarbons. However, when a catalyst with a lower temperature is then introduced into the fluidized bed reactor and contacts the naphtha, the local high-temperature zone in the fluidized bed reactor is eliminated. Therefore, the yield of low-carbon alkanes effectively decreases, and the yield of aromatic hydrocarbons increases. According to the device for producing aromatic hydrocarbons from naphtha described in the present application, by connecting a riser reactor at a high temperature and a fluidized bed reactor at a relatively low temperature in series, the beneficial effect of reducing the yield of low-carbon alkanes and increasing the yield of aromatic hydrocarbons is achieved.
