Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001] [Technical Field] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of fluidized bed reactors, and in particular to gas-solid composite fluidized bed reactors and their applications.

[0002] [Background technology] Petrochemical manufacturing processes often use single or multiple feedstocks to produce desired products through multiple reactions, such as dehydrogenation and cracking of alkanes, hydrogenation and cracking of inferior feedstocks, isomerization and hydrogen transfer reactions to convert linear olefins in gasoline to multi-branched alkanes to improve gasoline properties, and primary cracking reactions to convert heavy feedstocks or crude oils to lower olefin precursors and then secondary cracking reactions to convert them to lower olefins.

[0003] For example, CN104560149A discloses a catalytic conversion method for producing butenes, which includes a total of four reactors. In addition to the reactor configuration of two risers and a fluidized bed, a fluidized bed reactor for cracking the gasoline fraction is installed outside the settler, and the reaction product enters the riser reactor to continue the cracking reaction. After the reaction, the catalyst is carbonized and regenerated, and then returned to the reactor for recycling. This method uses a mixture containing Y zeolite and β zeolite as a catalyst, and can achieve high yields of propylene and butenes.

[0004] However, there remains a need for a fluidized bed reactor that can efficiently perform two or more different catalytic reactions.

[0005] Summary of the Invention The objective of the present disclosure is to provide a gas-solid combined fluidized-bed reactor and its application, wherein the fluidized-bed reactor can efficiently carry out at least two different catalytic reactions on a reaction feedstock in succession (e.g., dehydrogenation of an alkane and cracking of the dehydrogenated product), thereby improving the conversion ratio of the reaction feedstock and the yield of the target product.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned object, in one aspect, the present disclosure provides a gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor, the gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor comprising: a reverse-flow bed reaction zone and an up-flow bed reaction zone connected in series from bottom to top, with the upper part of the reverse-flow bed reaction zone connected to the lower part of the up-flow bed reaction zone; a first feed inlet, a first catalyst outlet, and an optional first lifting medium inlet located at a lower portion of the upflow bed reaction zone; a first catalyst inlet disposed at an upper portion of the upflow bed reaction zone and a first catalyst distributor connected to the first catalyst inlet; a first catalyst separator optionally located at the upper outlet of the upflow-bed reaction zone and / or the lower inlet of the upflow-bed reaction zone; a second catalyst inlet, an optional second feed inlet, and an optional second pumping medium inlet located in the lower portion of the upflow bed reaction zone; and a material outlet located at the top of said upflow bed reaction zone;

[0007] In another aspect, a fluidized catalytic conversion system is provided, the fluidized catalytic conversion system comprising the gas-solid hybrid fluidized bed reactor of the present disclosure, a first catalyst stripper, a first catalyst regenerator, a second catalyst separator, a second catalyst stripper, and a second catalyst regenerator, or the first catalyst regenerator and the second catalyst regenerator are combined into a hybrid catalyst regenerator having a first catalyst regeneration zone and a second catalyst regeneration zone; The first catalyst outlet of the upflow bed reaction zone in the gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor is connected to the spent catalyst inlet of the first catalyst regenerator or the first catalyst regeneration zone via the first catalyst stripper, and the regenerated catalyst outlet of the first catalyst regenerator or the first catalyst regeneration zone is connected to the first catalyst inlet of the upflow bed reaction zone; and The material outlet at the top of the upflow-bed reaction zone in the gas-solid combined fluidized-bed reactor is connected to the inlet of the second catalyst separator, the catalyst outlet of the second catalyst separator is connected to the spent catalyst inlet of the second catalyst regenerator or the second catalyst regeneration zone via the second catalyst stripper, and the regenerated catalyst outlet of the second catalyst regenerator or the second catalyst regeneration zone is connected to the second catalyst inlet of the upflow-bed reaction zone.

[0008] In the gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor of the present disclosure, the upflow bed reaction zone and the upflow bed reaction zone are connected in series, and different catalytic reactions can be carried out in the upflow bed reaction zone and the upflow bed reaction zone. The catalysts in the two reaction zones move in opposite directions, which makes it possible to carry out different catalytic reactions in sequence and to independently and flexibly adjust the reaction conditions in the two reaction zones, thereby improving the conversion rate of the reaction raw materials and the yield of the target product.

[0009] In yet another aspect, there is provided a method for producing ethylene and propylene from C4 to C12 alkanes using the gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor of the present disclosure, the method comprising the steps of: 1) introducing a first feedstock containing C4 to C12 lower alkanes into a lower part of the countercurrent bed reaction zone of the gas-solid combined fluidized bed reactor, and bringing the first feedstock into countercurrent contact with a dehydrogenation catalyst introduced from an upper part of the reaction zone to carry out a dehydrogenation reaction of the alkanes, and optionally separating the entrained catalyst from the resulting reaction stream through a first catalyst separator to obtain a first oil-gas product containing olefins; 2) The first oil-gas product, optionally together with the second feedstock containing C4 to C12 lower olefins introduced from the lower part of the upflow-bed reaction zone, is directly introduced into the lower part of the upflow-bed reaction zone of the gas-solid combined fluidized-bed reactor, and brought into co-current contact with a catalytic cracking catalyst introduced from the lower part of the reaction zone to carry out an olefin cracking reaction, thereby obtaining a reaction product stream containing ethylene and propylene.

[0010] The method of the present disclosure uses a composite fluidized-bed reactor equipped with a reverse-flow bed reaction zone and an upflow bed reaction zone connected in series. The alkane dehydrogenation reaction is primarily carried out in the reverse-flow bed reaction zone, while the olefin cracking reaction is primarily carried out in the upflow bed reaction zone. By using the reverse-flow bed reaction zone to carry out the alkane dehydrogenation reaction, the reaction between the alkane and the dehydrogenation catalyst can be strengthened and the alkane conversion can be improved. The reverse-flow bed reaction zone and the upflow bed reaction zone are connected to each other, allowing the alkane dehydrogenation reaction and the olefin cracking reaction to be carried out sequentially. The active species produced in the first stage of the dehydrogenation reaction can be sufficiently retained in the feed for the olefin cracking reaction, thereby facilitating the olefin cracking reaction and suppressing the occurrence of side reactions. At the same time, the reaction conditions for the alkane dehydrogenation reaction and the olefin cracking reaction can be independently and flexibly adjusted, thereby improving the conversion of the alkane feedstock and the yields of the target products, ethylene and propylene.

[0019] All patent and non-patent literature (including, but not limited to, textbooks and journal articles, and the like) referred to herein is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0021] According to the present disclosure, in the gas-solid combined fluidized-bed reactor, the reaction feedstock is first countercurrently contacted with the first catalyst in the upflow-bed reaction zone to carry out a first catalytic conversion reaction. The resulting reaction stream is then fed upward into the upflow-bed reaction zone and contacted with the second catalyst in a cocurrent manner to carry out a second catalytic conversion reaction to obtain a target product. This allows the first and second catalytic conversion reactions to be carried out sequentially. Preferably, a first catalyst separator is disposed at the upper outlet of the upflow-bed reaction zone and / or the lower inlet of the upflow-bed reaction zone to separate the entrained catalyst from the reaction stream ascending from the upflow-bed reaction zone, so that the reaction stream flowing into the upflow-bed reaction zone is substantially free of the first catalyst.
