The invention relates to a method for refining vacuum gas oil, which can be used for producing environment-friendly rubber extending oil with a high content of
aromatic hydrocarbon and a low content of
polyaromatic hydrocarbon. The method is characterized in that
furfural, N-methyl pyrrolidone,
phenol and
dimethyl sulfoxide are used as
solvent for extraction in an extraction
tower, the
solvent is fed in from the upper part of the extraction
tower, vacuum distillate is fed in from the lower part of the extraction
tower, the
solvent and the vacuum distillate are in countercurrent contact, then refined solution flows out of the top of the extraction tower, and refined
oil can be obtained after solvent
recovery through
evaporation and stripping; and primary extract solution on the tower bottom is fed into the middle upper part of a secondary extraction tower, extract oil is fed into the lower part of the secondary extraction tower, fresh solvent is fed into the upper part of the secondary extraction tower, then secondary refined solution flows out of the top of the secondary extraction tower, secondary refined
oil can be obtained after solvent
recovery through
evaporation and stripping and can be used as the environment-friendly rubber extending oil with a high content of
aromatic hydrocarbon, secondary extract solution flows out of the bottom of the secondary extraction tower, extract
oil can be obtained after solvent
recovery through
evaporation and stripping, part of the extract oil returns to the lower part of the secondary extraction tower, and the rest of the extract oil is thrown out as the product.
