For ranges of values, between the endpoints of each of the ranges and the individual points, and between the individual points may be combined with each other to give one or more new ranges of values, and these ranges of values should be considered as specifically disclosed herein.
In a first aspect the present invention provides a process for the production of hydrocarbons from synthesis gas, the process comprising the steps of:
(1) in the presence of a catalyst-I, mixing raw material synthesis gas with recycle gas A and then carrying out primary reaction;
(2) performing first separation on a product obtained by the first-stage reaction to obtain a first gas phase material and a first hydrocarbon product;
(3) after supplementing hydrogen into the first gas phase material, mixing the first gas phase material with optional circulating gas B, and carrying out secondary reaction in the presence of a catalyst-II;
(4) performing second separation on the product obtained by the second-stage reaction to obtain a second gas-phase material and a second hydrocarbon product;

The two-stage reaction is simply connected in series, so that the reaction load of the first-stage reaction can be effectively reduced, the heat release of the first-stage reaction is reduced, and the temperature runaway phenomenon is avoided; the concentration of the synthesis gas in the secondary reaction is low, and the temperature runaway phenomenon can not occur, so that the system can stably run. However, if two-stage reactions are connected in series, the pressure difference of the system is large, the work of the circulating compressor is increased, and the energy consumption is increased. The inventor of the invention finds that the circulating gas is divided and then enters the first-stage reaction and the second-stage reaction respectively, the first-stage reaction is mainly carried out, and a small amount of circulating gas enters the second-stage reaction, so that heat in the first-stage reaction can be effectively brought out, the pressure difference of a system is reduced, and the energy consumption of the system is reduced.
H consumed in the Fischer-Tropsch reaction of cobalt based 2 The volume ratio of the carbon to the CO is more than 2.0, so as the reaction is carried out, the hydrogen-carbon ratio of the gas in the system is lower, the final CO total conversion rate of the system is higher, and the hydrogen-carbon ratio of the outlet gas of the system is lower. For the cobalt-based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction, the catalyst has low activity and is easy to generate carbon deposition inactivation under a low hydrogen-carbon ratio, and in order to ensure that the catalyst does not generate carbon deposition inactivation, the total conversion rate of CO is generally maintained below 90%, which causes the utilization efficiency of CO in the whole system to be low.
