Description

A Low-Temperature Regeneration Method for Diesel Adsorbent Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a process for regenerating adsorbents, specifically a low-temperature regeneration method for diesel adsorbents. Background Technology

[0002] The removal of aromatics from diesel fuel by adsorption has been studied for many years. However, highly polar impurities such as sulfur and nitrogen compounds and gums in diesel fuel can deactivate the adsorbent, causing it to lose its selective adsorption capacity for aromatics. Currently, adsorbent regeneration processes still face problems such as difficulty in regenerating the adsorbent, decreased adsorption performance after regeneration, and high energy consumption during the regeneration process.

[0003] CN111996030A discloses a process for in-situ regeneration of adsorbents in a simulated moving bed. It uses weakly polar solvents and strongly polar solvents to perform in-situ steam regeneration of deactivated adsorbents in a simulated moving bed device. However, the weak / strong polar solvents result in high regeneration temperatures, narrow applicability, and low regenerated capacity.

[0004] CN107790112A discloses an activation method for an adsorbent to remove oxygen-containing compounds from low-carbon olefins. This method removes low-carbon oxygen-containing compounds from the adsorbent through a step-by-step temperature-progression purging process, avoiding coking and carbon buildup on the adsorbent. However, the processing range is narrow, and it can only process low-carbon oxygen-containing compounds such as methanol and dimethyl ether.

[0005] CN107321337A discloses an adsorbent regeneration system and a method for adsorbent regeneration. The regeneration system mainly includes a regeneration furnace, a condenser, a gas-liquid separator, and a vacuum pump. The adsorbent is placed in a regeneration furnace at 420–460°C, and nitrogen is introduced through the inlet pipe for purging for 1–2 hours, followed by nitrogen calcination regeneration. CN108795476A discloses a gasoline desulfurization adsorbent regeneration process. This method involves initial regeneration via a fluidized bed, followed by placement in a high-temperature heating furnace, introduction of oxygen, heating to 500–600°C, and calcination for 2–5 hours to complete adsorbent regeneration. Both of these methods employ high-temperature calcination to remove deactivated substances from the adsorbent, resulting in high regeneration efficiency but also posing a risk of adsorbent structure damage and high energy consumption.

[0006] Existing adsorbent regeneration processes mainly consist of external regeneration in a high-temperature calciner and in-situ regeneration in a high-temperature gas environment. External regeneration suffers from problems such as frequent loading and unloading of adsorbents, high energy consumption, and large resource consumption. In-situ regeneration in a high-temperature gas environment is complex, and the adsorption capacity and adsorption separation performance decrease significantly after regeneration, making it difficult to meet separation standards. Summary of the Invention

[0007] This invention is proposed to address the problems of high temperature, high energy consumption, poor stability, severe degradation of adsorption performance after regeneration, and low adsorption capacity in existing diesel adsorbent regeneration methods. Its purpose is to provide a low-temperature regeneration method for diesel adsorbents.

[0008] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0009] A low-temperature regeneration method for diesel adsorbent includes the following steps:

[0010] S1. The diesel feedstock in the bed is purged with nitrogen at low temperature.

[0011] S2. Low-temperature solvent flushing and regeneration of the deactivated diesel adsorbent in the bed is performed using a liquid-phase composite solvent.

[0012] S3. Nitrogen gas is used to purge the bed at low temperature to remove the liquid-phase composite solvent in the bed gaps;

[0013] S4. Nitrogen gas is used to purge the bed at high temperature to remove the liquid-phase composite solvent in the deactivated diesel adsorbent.

[0014] S5. Nitrogen gas is used to purge the bed at low temperature to reduce the bed temperature to the adsorption temperature, thus completing the regeneration of the adsorbent.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0016] This invention provides a low-temperature regeneration method for diesel adsorbents, which features low regeneration temperature and low process energy consumption. The liquid-phase composite solvent can efficiently remove poisons from the diesel adsorbent with a low agent-to-oil ratio. The liquid-phase composite solvent can form a minimum azeotrope, which significantly reduces the regeneration temperature during high-temperature N2 purging and completely removes the composite solvent from the adsorbent, resulting in high regeneration efficiency. The adsorption capacity (mass) loss of the diesel adsorbent after the first regeneration is ≤3%, and the adsorption capacity (mass) loss is ≤20% within 20 regenerations. Attached Figure Description

[0022] As shown in Figure 1, a method for low-temperature regeneration of diesel adsorbent includes the following steps:

[0023] S1. Nitrogen cryogenic purging is used to purge the diesel feedstock in the bed.

[0024] Nitrogen feedstock is used to purge the deactivated diesel adsorbent in the adsorption device 5 at low temperature via N2 flow meter 8 and N2 heater 6. The diesel feedstock in the adsorption device 5 then enters the collection tank 7 for collection.

[0026] S2. Low-temperature solvent flushing and regeneration of the deactivated diesel adsorbent in the bed is performed using a liquid-phase composite solvent.

[0027] The liquid phase composite solvent in the rinsing tank 1 is used by pump II 9 to regenerate the deactivated adsorbent in the adsorption device 5 by low-temperature solvent rinsing.

The content of aromatics in the liquid-phase composite solvent is 10% to 30%.

[0029] S3. The bed is purged with nitrogen at low temperature to remove the liquid-phase composite solvent in the bed gaps.

[0030] After the nitrogen feedstock is flushed through the N2 flow meter 8 and the N2 heater 6, the adsorbent is purged at low temperature, and the flushing solvent in the adsorption device 5 enters the collection tank 4 for collection.

[0031] In step S3, nitrogen is used to purge the bed at a temperature of 40°C to 80°C, and the nitrogen purge space velocity is 100 h⁻¹. -1 ~500h -1 The N2 purging pressure is 0.1 MPa to 0.3 MPa, and the purging time is 30 min to 150 min; preferably, the nitrogen cryogenic purging space velocity is 150 h⁻¹. -1 ~350h -1 The N2 purging pressure is 0.1MPa to 0.2MPa, and the purging time is 40min to 80min.

[0032] S4. High-temperature purging of the bed with nitrogen gas is used to remove the liquid-phase composite solvent in the deactivated diesel adsorbent.

[0033] After the nitrogen feedstock is flushed through the N2 flow meter 8 and the N2 heating furnace 6, the adsorbent is purged at high temperature to remove the residual flushing solvent from the adsorbent.

[0034] In step S4, the bed is purged with nitrogen at a temperature of 100℃~160℃, and the nitrogen purge space velocity is 100 h⁻¹. -1 ~500h -1 The nitrogen purging pressure is 0.1 MPa to 0.3 MPa, and the purging time is 30 min to 150 min; preferably, the nitrogen high-temperature purging space velocity is 300 h⁻¹. -1 ~450h -1 The nitrogen purging pressure is 0.15MPa to 0.25MPa, and the purging time is 50min to 120min.

[0035] S5. The bed is purged with nitrogen at low temperature to lower the bed temperature to the adsorption temperature, thus completing the adsorbent regeneration.

[0036] Nitrogen feed is used to purge the adsorbent in the adsorption unit 5 after high-temperature purging through N2 flow meter 8 and N2 heating furnace 6, thereby reducing the bed temperature to the adsorption temperature and completing the regeneration of the adsorbent.

[0037] In step S5, nitrogen is used to purge the bed at a temperature of 40°C to 80°C, and the nitrogen purge space velocity is 100 h⁻¹. -1 ~500h -1 The N2 purging pressure is 0.1 MPa to 0.3 MPa, and the purging time is 30 min to 150 min; preferably, the nitrogen cryogenic purging space velocity is 150 h⁻¹. -1 ~350h -1 The N2 purging pressure is 0.1MPa to 0.2MPa, and the purging time is 40 to 80 minutes.

[0038] S6. The composite solvent containing diesel feedstock is recovered and reused through distillation separation.

[0039] The composite solvent containing diesel feedstock enters the distillation column 2 from the collection tank 4 via pump I 3 to regenerate the flushing solvent. The liquid composite solvent collected from the top of the distillation column 2 is returned to the flushing liquid tank 1.

[0040] In step S6, during the distillation process to recover the solvent, the theoretical number of distillation columns is 30 to 50, the reflux ratio is 0.3 to 1.2, the solvent mass loss is ≤0.1%, and the purity of the recovered solvent is ≥95%.

[0042] The formula for calculating the adsorption capacity (mass) of the adsorbent in the following examples is as follows:

[0043] Adsorption capacity (mass) = Diesel feedstock mass flow rate × Aromatic content × Breakthrough time / Adsorbent mass;

[0044] Loss of adsorption capacity (mass) after regeneration = (Adsorption capacity (mass) of fresh adsorbent - Adsorption capacity (mass) after regeneration) / Adsorption capacity (mass) of fresh adsorbent × 100%.
