Description

Three-phase separator capable of regulating short-circuit flow, ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biomass energy equipment, and particularly relates to a three-phase separator capable of regulating and controlling short-circuit flow, a fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor and a fluidized bed hydrogenation method.
Background
The ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor is a device for realizing the mixing, mass transfer and heat transfer between solid particles and gas phase and liquid phase, and is a common reactor in industry. Since the development of the reactor, the reactor is mainly used for processing high sulfur, high nitrogen, high metal (nickel and vanadium), poor heavy residual oil with high asphaltene content, coal tar or biomass oil produced by coal pyrolysis, and the like which are difficult to process in the traditional technology, and is widely applied to petrochemical industry and new energy manufacturing industry. The advantages of ebullated bed hydrogenation reactors can be summarized as follows: (1) the adaptability of the raw materials is strong; (2) the reaction rate is high; (3) the operation condition is flexible; (4) the catalyst can be replaced on line, and the product quality is relatively stable; (5) the internal temperature difference is small, so that local overheating is avoided, and the bed pressure is reduced; (6) the device has long running time.
Review the recent decades of commercial development history of ebullated bed hydrogenation reactors, and can be categorized into two major categories, the expanded bed regime and the full mixed flow ebullated bed regime, depending on the state of catalyst fluidization within the reactor. The ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor in the expanded bed state is mainly based on foreign H-Oil and LC-Fining technologies and derivative technologies thereof; the gas-liquid-solid mixed flow boiling bed type hydrogenation reactor is represented by domestic petrochemical 'STRONG' technology. The functional requirements for the separators arranged in ebullated bed hydrogenation reactors are also quite different, due to the different fluidization conditions of the catalysts inside the two types of reactors. For the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor in the expanded bed state, after the internal catalyst bed layer is expanded to a certain height, the upper part of the reactor is a sedimentation zone of catalyst particles, and a gas-liquid two-phase product without solid particles is obtained, so that the requirement on a separator arranged in the reactor is to perform gas-liquid two-phase separation; for a gas-liquid-solid total mixed flow ebullated bed type hydrogenation reactor, the space from the distribution plate to the height of the material surface of the reactor is a gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture, so that the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separation is required for the separator arranged in the reactor.
In the case of ebullated bed hydrogenation reactors in the expanded bed state, for example: U.S. patent application US20170081599A1 discloses a ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor that can control the reaction rate by a circulation channel in the center of the reactor and a circulation cup at the top to keep the heat released by the reaction at a safe level; also for example: chinese patent No. CN103102930B discloses a ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor, which can effectively improve the mass transfer efficiency of gas-liquid two phases through a circulation cup at the upper part and a circulation pipeline at the lower part in the reactor cylinder; similarly, in order to improve the mass transfer efficiency of the gas-liquid two phases, chinese patent No. CN103100356B discloses a ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor, in which a rotatable centrifugal impeller is disposed in a circulation line at the lower part of the reactor cylinder. In summary, it can be found that the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor in the expanded bed state actively controls the flow of the gas-liquid two phases entering the reactor, indirectly controls the expansion height of the catalyst bed, realizes the separation of the gas-liquid two phases and the catalyst particles in the settling zone at the upper part of the bed, and adopts a circulating cup and a circulating channel at the upper part of the reactor cylinder body, thereby realizing the separation of the gas-liquid two phase products, and further meeting the production requirements. However, such reactors suffer from the following disadvantages: (1) low reactor space utilization. The sedimentation area of catalyst particles is needed to be reserved in the expanded bed state, so that the effective utilization space in the reactor is less; and (2) the mass transfer resistance of the catalyst is large, and the conversion rate is low. The separation of the catalyst particles in the expanded bed state is completely settled by the gravity of the catalyst, so that the granularity of the catalyst filler is larger, the mass transfer process of the catalyst is influenced, and the conversion rate is low; (3) Catalyst particles are easy to coke, and the operation period of the reactor is short. Because the gas phase and the liquid phase are separated by the circulating cup at the upper part of the reactor in the state of the expanded bed, the separation strength is smaller, the separation time is longer, and the liquid phase product is easy to coke with the fine particle catalyst in the sedimentation zone. Therefore, under the conditions of increasingly complicating and inferior oil products, the reactor in the gas-liquid-solid fully mixed flow state is the development direction of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor in the future.
In the aspect of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor in a gas-liquid-solid fully mixed flow state, the technology of petroleum and chemical industry and the derivative technology thereof are represented in China, and the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor is mainly characterized in that a three-phase separator with a three-layer or multi-layer concentric sleeve structure is arranged at the top of the reactor, and three-phase separation is mainly realized by baffling sedimentation, for example: the Chinese patent application CN1448212A only depends on the gravity action of the catalyst particles and cannot be disturbed by external fluid, and has certain limitation on the fluidization operation. Then, in order to optimize gravity sedimentation conditions, a Z-shaped baffle structure is arranged between an inner support cylinder and an outer support cylinder on the basis of CN1448212A in the Chinese patent application CN 108114510A; the Chinese patent application CN101721960A is characterized in that the concentric inner cylinder and the outer cylinder are designed into a structure with an inverted cone at the upper part and a positive cone at the lower part; in addition, on the basis of CN1448212A, a diamond-shaped diversion cone is arranged below the three-phase separator in the Chinese patent application CN 101721961A. Said invented patent application optimizes the separation condition to different extent, but its substantial separation principle still depends on baffling sedimentation, and separation efficiency and accuracy are limited by operation condition of reactor.
In order to solve the problems, researchers at the university of eastern China have conducted extensive and intensive studies, and then introduced the reinforced separation methods such as cyclone separation and guide vane separation into the design of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor in a fully mixed flow state. For example: the invention patent CN113083169B discloses a fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor and a use method thereof, wherein the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor strengthens gas-liquid-solid three-phase separation in a gas-liquid-solid three-phase cyclone separator and internal components thereof which are arranged in the upper space of the reactor by cyclone separation, sieve mesh separation and guide vane separation methods; for another example: the invention discloses a fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor and a use method thereof, wherein a baffle plate arranged in the upper space of the reactor and a gas-liquid-solid three-phase cyclone separator connected with the baffle plate are utilized to strengthen the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separation by cyclone separation, baffle separation and guide vane separation methods; also for example: the invention discloses a fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor and a use method thereof, wherein a gas-liquid-solid three-phase cyclone separator and internal components thereof arranged in the upper space of the reactor are utilized to strengthen the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separation by cyclone separation and guide vane separation methods. Said invention mainly uses cyclone separation mode to intensify gas-liquid-solid three-phase separation in the reactor, and compared with baffle sedimentation method it has the advantages of large operation elasticity and high separation strength; however, because the upper end of the overflow pipe is of an opening structure, and the overflow pipe is sleeved on the periphery of the liquid-falling type liquid-phase product eduction pipe, the upper end of the liquid-falling type liquid-phase product eduction pipe is lower than the upper end of the overflow pipe, and therefore, the phenomenon of short-circuit flow can be inevitably generated in the operation process of the three-phase cyclone separator. The short-circuit flow is formed by that after fluid enters the three-phase cyclone separator along the axial inlet due to the viscous action of the wall surface boundary layer, the speed of the boundary layer fluid is low due to the viscous force of the wall surface, and the generated centrifugal force is insufficient, so that part of the fluid escapes without participating in separation, namely, part of the fluid separated from the main flow directly escapes along the outer wall of the liquid-falling type liquid-phase product eduction tube, bypasses the bottom of the liquid-falling type liquid-phase product eduction tube and is formed by the upper end of the overflow tube, and is opposite to the fluid entering the three-phase cyclone separator along the axial direction. The existence of short-circuit flow can cause problems such as reduction of separation precision and separation efficiency, escape or running loss of catalyst micro powder and the like.
In the research of improving short-circuit flow in a three-phase cyclone separator, researchers mainly reduce the influence of the short-circuit flow on separation efficiency by changing a motion path. For example: chinese patent No. CN211937451U discloses a cyclone with a short-circuit flow suppressing structure, which is provided with a short-circuit flow suppressing component below a top cap of a cylinder at an upper end of the cylinder, and improves classification efficiency by changing an internal short-circuit flow path of the cyclone through the suppressing component. Similarly, chinese patent No. CN106475238B discloses a cyclone separator for suppressing top short-circuit flow, which is provided with a protrusion structure on the top plate of the barrel section to limit the flow rate of the top plate short-circuit flow, thereby improving the separation efficiency. The above patents are all solutions proposed by changing the short-circuit flow motion path to reduce the adverse effect, and are all solutions proposed by the cyclone structure based on the tangential inlet, but the axial liquid inlet type cyclone is different from the tangential liquid inlet type cyclone short-circuit flow forming mechanism, so that no related prior art is proposed at present.
In view of the foregoing, in order to reduce the adverse effects of short-circuit flow on the separation strength and separation efficiency of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor in the gas-liquid-solid fully mixed flow state during the operation of the three-phase cyclone separator, and reduce the escape or run-out behavior of the catalyst fines, there is a strong need in the art to develop a three-phase separator and ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor and method that overcome the above-mentioned technical drawbacks.

The liquid-phase product eduction tube 6 is arranged on a tube section of the light liquid guide tube 4 outside the annular gap overflow tube 2 and is communicated with the inner cavity of the light liquid guide tube 4 through a liquid-phase inlet thereof; the liquid product eduction tube 6 is mainly used for educing and discharging the light liquid overflowed by the light liquid flow guide tube 4; in the working process, the liquid phase product eduction tube 6, the light liquid guide tube 4 and the annular overflow tube 2 together enable part of liquid phase (light liquid) close to the center of the light liquid guide tube 4 to move upwards along the light liquid guide tube 4 under the action of internal rotational flow, and finally, the liquid phase product eduction tube 6 is discharged.
Referring to fig. 4, the process of regulating the short-circuit flow by the three-phase separator or the reactor and/or the method using the three-phase separator is as follows: the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture moves upwards along the axial direction of the reactor, the gas phase mainly composed of large bubbles continues to move upwards under the action of inertia through a channel between the three-phase separator and the wall of the reactor, and when the fluidization liquid level exceeds the straight barrel section 1 of the three-phase separator, the rest gas phase, liquid phase and catalyst particles enter the three-phase separator through an annular gap channel between the straight barrel section 1 of the three-phase separator and an annular gap overflow pipe 2, as shown by an arrow at A in fig. 4; the gas-liquid-solid three phases form a centrifugal force field through the drainage effect of the cyclone guide vane 3, the fluid flow velocity near the wall surface is reduced due to the viscous force of the annular gap channel wall surface, the received centrifugal force is reduced, and the fluid can form short-circuit flow in the past; because the lower end of the light liquid guide pipe 4 extends into the inner cavity of the annular gap overflow pipe 2, the upper end of the light liquid guide pipe is higher than the upper end of the annular gap overflow pipe 2, and a closed structure 11 is arranged between the light liquid guide pipe 4 and the upper end of the annular gap overflow pipe 2, an annular gap overflow structure capable of regulating and controlling short-circuit flow is formed, and the short-circuit flow can be led out of the reactor from the liquid-solid mixed phase product eduction pipe 5 through the annular gap overflow structure, as shown by an arrow at B in fig. 4; the mixture, which consists mainly of large particle size catalyst, continues to rotate down the cone section 7 and the underflow pipe 8 to effect separation, as indicated by the arrow at C in fig. 4.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, as shown in connection with fig. 2 and 4, the inner diameter Da of the annular overflow pipe 2 is optionally 75-95% of the inner diameter D of the straight section 1; therefore, the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture entering the three-phase separator can be ensured to generate enough centrifugal force under the flow guiding action of the rotational flow guide vanes 3 in the annular space channel, and meanwhile, the flow guiding quantity during annular space overflow is ensured; the inner diameter Da of the annular overflow pipe 2 is preferably 85% of the inner diameter D of the straight section 1. Optionally, the height of the annular gap overflow pipe 2 is 50-130% of the height of the light liquid guide pipe 4, so that the short-circuit flow in the three-phase separator is guided by an annular gap overflow structure formed by the annular gap overflow pipe 2 and the light liquid guide pipe 4; the height of the annular overflow pipe 2 is preferably set to 80% of the height of the light liquid guide pipe 4, and the short-circuit flow rate can be set to 0.
Considering that the inclination angle theta of the swirl guide vanes 3 is a main influencing factor for generating centrifugal force, the tangential velocity of the fluid is determined; the inclination angle of the swirl guide vane 3 is represented by an included angle between a tangent line of the ventral surface of the swirl guide vane 3 and the axis of the straight barrel section 1; the inclination angle is smaller than 45 degrees, so that the axial speed of the fluid is increased, the tangential speed is reduced, and the basic centrifugal force condition required by the separation of the catalyst particles can not be met; the inclination angle is larger than 65 degrees, so that the axial speed of the fluid is reduced, the tangential speed is increased, the separation condition of catalyst particles is achieved, but the integral pressure drop of the reactor is increased, and the energy consumption is increased; therefore, the swirl guide vanes 3 are preferably provided at an inclination angle of 45 to 65 °. The inclination angle θ of the swirl vane 3 is more preferably 50 °, 55 °, 60 °.
On the basis of the above, the swirl guide vanes 3 are preferably arranged at an inclination angle of 55 °; thus, the separation efficiency of the three-phase separator can be more than 99.2%, the amount of the catalyst with the particle size of 0.04mm is less than or equal to 0.9 mug/g, the amount of the catalyst with the particle size of 0.08mm is less than or equal to 0.4 mug/g, and the amount of the catalyst with the particle size of 0.1mm is 0; the pressure drop was 70kPa.
Considering that the gas content and the catalyst particle ratio are about 30-40% and the liquid phase ratio is about 60-70% at the lower part of the inner cavity of the straight barrel section 1 in the working process, the gas phase ratio is reduced in the upward fluidization process, the catalyst particles are collected, the liquid phase ratio is increased, and the liquid velocity in the light liquid guide pipe 4 is required to be reduced in order to prevent the liquid phase from flowing upward at the same speed to carry catalyst particles and escaping, so that the inner diameter Do of the light liquid guide pipe 4 is limited to be 70-90% of the inner diameter Da of the annular overflow pipe 2 and is larger than the highest ratio of the liquid phase, so that the purpose of reducing the real liquid velocity of the liquid phase is achieved, and the probability of the liquid phase carrying catalyst particles or micro powder is effectively reduced.
In addition to the above, the inner diameter Do of the light liquid guide pipe 4 is preferably set to 85% of the inner diameter Da of the annular overflow pipe 2; thus, the true liquid velocity in the light liquid guide pipe 4 can be reduced from 6.9mm/s to 5.2mm/s or less, resulting in 0.04mm of catalyst being carried over in an amount of 0.9 μg/g or less, resulting in 0.08mm of catalyst being carried over in an amount of 0.4 μg/g or less, resulting in 0.1mm of catalyst being carried over in an amount of 0.
Referring again to fig. 2, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the height of the light liquid guide pipe 4 is 100-150% of the height of the straight section 1; therefore, the light liquid guide pipe 4 is ensured to have enough insertion depth, the separation efficiency is improved, the probability of liquid phase entraining catalyst particles or micro powder is reduced, and good flow field adjustment and short-circuit flow drainage effects are achieved; the height of the light liquid guide pipe 4 is preferably 120% of the height of the straight cylinder section 1, and the flow field adjustment and the short-circuit flow drainage function are optimal.
Referring again to fig. 2, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, alternatively the angle α of the generatrix of the cone section 7 to its axis is between 10 and 25 °; in this way, it is ensured that the denser catalyst particles impinge on the outer conical surface and return along the impingement path, and that about 60% of the catalyst returns directly to the lower reaction bed in the reactor. The angle α is preferably 10 ° at which the three-phase separator has the highest separation efficiency for the catalyst particles.
Referring again to fig. 2, in some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the light liquid guide pipe 4 may be configured to have a lower end higher than the liquid-solid inlet of the liquid-solid mixed phase product lead-out pipe 5, may be configured to have a lower end lower than the liquid-solid inlet of the liquid-solid mixed phase product lead-out pipe 5 and higher than the lower end of the annular overflow pipe 2, may have a lower end equal to the lower end of the annular overflow pipe 2, and may be configured to have a lower end lower than the lower end of the annular overflow pipe 2 and higher than the lower end of the straight section 1; therefore, the adjusting effect on the flow field and the drainage effect on the short-circuit flow can be effectively improved. It is further preferable to make the lower end of the light liquid guide pipe 4 lower than the liquid-solid inlet of the liquid-solid mixed phase product outlet pipe 5 so as to promote the utility of the above-mentioned regulation and drainage.
Referring again to fig. 1 and 2, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the axis of the liquid-solid mixed phase product outlet pipe 5 is perpendicular to the axis of the annular space overflow pipe 2, so that the liquid-solid mixed phase product in the annular space between the annular space overflow pipe 2 and the light liquid guide pipe 4 is smoothly discharged outwards, and the amount of catalyst particles or micro powder carried out is reduced; simultaneously, the axis of the liquid-phase product eduction tube 6 is mutually perpendicular to the axis of the light liquid guide tube 4, so that the light liquid guide tube 4 is beneficial to smoothly and outwards guiding and discharging the liquid-phase product, and the amount of catalyst particles or micro powder carried out is reduced.
As shown in fig. 3, the present invention further provides a ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor, which comprises a pressure-bearing shell 23 and a gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 disposed at the upper part of the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing shell 23; the pressure-bearing shell 23 is a main body part of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor and is mainly used for the installation and arrangement of other parts and the reaction of materials; the top of the pressure-bearing shell 23 is provided with a gas phase outlet 21, and the bottom of the pressure-bearing shell is provided with a gas-liquid mixed phase inlet 25; the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 is the three-phase separator capable of regulating short-circuit flow, and the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 is generally coaxially arranged with the pressure-bearing shell 23; both the liquid-solid mixed phase product eduction tube 5 and the liquid phase product eduction tube 6 penetrate out from the side wall of the pressure-bearing shell 23.
According to the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor, the three-phase separator is arranged, partial fluid separated from the main flow can be drained, the partial fluid is prevented from entering the light liquid guide pipe 4 along the outer wall of the light liquid guide pipe 4 and bypassing the bottom of the side wall of the light liquid guide pipe, and short-circuit flow is formed by escaping from the upper end of the light liquid guide pipe 4, so that the regulation and control of the short-circuit flow are realized, the adverse effect of the short-circuit flow can be effectively reduced, the separation precision and efficiency are ensured, and the escaping or the escaping loss of catalyst micro powder is reduced.

In this way, the fluidization velocity required in the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor can be reduced, and the energy consumption can be reduced. Preferably, h1 is 40%, 50% or 60% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing shell 23, and most preferably 40%, at which time the fluidization velocity required in the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor is minimized and the energy consumption is minimized. The difference in height between the liquid-solid phase product outlet pipe 5 and the liquid phase product outlet pipe 6 is typically characterized by the height distance between the axes of the two, and may also be characterized by the height distance between the lower or upper edges of the two.
Referring again to fig. 2 and 3, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the inner diameter D of the straight barrel section 1 is optionally 50-90% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure housing 23; thus, the channel between the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 and the wall of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor has better acceleration effect on the upward movement of the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture and the separation promotion effect of the gas phase; the inner diameter D of the straight tube segment 1 is preferably set to 80% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing housing 23, and in this case, the acceleration of the upward movement of the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture and the separation acceleration of the gas phase are preferably optimized. Alternatively, the height of the straight cylinder section 1 is 3-10% of the tangential height of the pressure-bearing shell 23; therefore, the gas-liquid two-phase carried part catalyst with smaller density can move upwards, so that the gas phase is ensured to have sufficient separation space, and the energy consumption is reduced. The height of the straight section 1 is preferably 6% of the tangential height of the pressure housing 23 to optimize the above effect. The tangential height of the pressure-bearing housing 23 is: the distance between the tangent line at the top end of the pressure-bearing shell 23 and the tangent line at the bottom end thereof; colloquially the maximum height of the pressure bearing housing 23.

Referring again to fig. 2 and 3, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the height difference between the upper end of the light liquid guiding pipe 4 and the upper end of the annular overflow pipe 2 is h3, h3 being 10-60% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing housing 23; thus, the short-circuit flow in the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 can be effectively guided by the annular gap overflow structure. Preferably, h3 is 20% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing shell 23, and at this time, the short-circuit flow in the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 is guided by the annular overflow structure, and the short-circuit flow is 0.
Referring again to fig. 2 and 3, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the height difference between the upper end of the light liquid guide pipe 4 and the axis of the liquid product outlet pipe 6 is h4, where h4 is 5-20% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing housing 23; thus, the upward movement and separation of partial gas phase mixed in the liquid phase product are facilitated, and the amount of catalyst particles and catalyst micropowder carried in the liquid phase product is reduced. Preferably, h4 is 8%, 10% and 15% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing housing 23; it is further preferable that h4 is 10% of the inner diameter Dn of the pressure-bearing housing 23 so as to optimize the above effect.

The invention also provides a boiling bed hydrogenation reaction method, which is combined with the figures 3 and 4 to carry out reaction by adopting the boiling bed hydrogenation reactor, and comprises the following steps:
step one, cyclone degassing: loading the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture into a fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor for reaction, after reaching the fluidized liquid level of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor, under the fluidization action of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor, enabling the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture to flow to the upper part of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor and pass through a channel between a gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 and a pressure-bearing shell 23, and before the gas-liquid-solid three-phase mixture enters the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22, breaking large bubbles under the action of inertia and continuing to move upwards to be discharged from a gas phase outlet 21; the rest gas phase, liquid phase and catalyst particles enter a gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 from the upper end of an annular gap channel between a straight cylinder section 1 and an annular gap overflow pipe 2, a centrifugal force field is formed through the drainage effect of a rotational flow guide blade 3, and the gas phase mainly composed of small bubbles moves towards the center of a light liquid guide pipe 4 under the effect of the centrifugal force field due to the large density difference of the gas phase and the liquid phase, and continues to upwards along the light liquid guide pipe 4 after the gas phase has small density, enters the inner cavity top space of a pressure-bearing shell 23 from the upper end of the light liquid guide pipe 4 and is discharged from a gas phase outlet 21; part of liquid phase close to the center of the light liquid guide pipe 4 moves upwards along the light liquid guide pipe 4 under the driving action of the internal rotational flow of the gas phase, and finally is discharged out of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor as liquid phase product through a liquid phase product eduction pipe 6;
Step two, primary rotational flow solid removal: the catalyst particles with large particle size in the first step are thrown to the side wall of the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22 under the action of the centrifugal force field, move downwards along the cone section 7 and the underflow pipe 8, and finally return to the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing shell 23 from the underflow port at the lower end of the underflow pipe 8 for continuous reaction; catalyst particles or powder with smaller particle size and partial liquid phase substances move upwards from an annular space between the annular space overflow pipe 2 and the light liquid flow guide pipe 4 under the action of the swirling flow field, and finally are discharged out of the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor as liquid-solid mixed phase products through the liquid-solid mixed phase product outlet pipe 5, so that the short-circuit flow regulation and control are realized.
The fluidized bed hydrogenation reaction method can drain partial fluid separated from the main flow, prevent the partial fluid from entering the light liquid guide pipe 4 along the outer wall of the light liquid guide pipe 4 by bypassing the bottom of the side wall of the light liquid guide pipe, and escape from the upper end of the light liquid guide pipe 4 to form short-circuit flow, thereby realizing the regulation and control of the short-circuit flow, effectively reducing the adverse effect of the short-circuit flow, ensuring the separation precision and efficiency, and reducing the escape or the running loss of the catalyst micro powder. In addition, the boiling bed hydrogenation reaction method can also improve the internal flow field distribution of the gas-liquid-solid three-phase separator 22, enlarge the range of the zero axial velocity envelope surface, ensure that most catalyst particles move downwards without escaping, and increase the intensity of turbulent flow in the three-phase separator at the same time, thereby improving the separation precision and efficiency and realizing the strengthening of the separation effect.
Optionally, the method further comprises a step three;
step three, secondary rotational flow solid removal: the liquid-solid mixed phase product in the second step is discharged out of the fluidized bed hydrogenation reactor, then continuously moves along the liquid-solid mixed phase product eduction tube 5 and the liquid-solid mixed phase product circulating tube 27 connected to the liquid-solid outlet of the liquid-solid mixed phase product eduction tube 5, enters the secondary cyclone 26 connected to the lower end of the liquid-solid mixed phase product circulating tube 27 for further solid removal, and the clean liquid phase product obtained after further solid removal enters the bottom of the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing shell 23 along the cyclone guide tube 28 connected to the secondary cyclone 26, and enters the upper part of the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing shell 23 under the action of the gas-liquid distributor 24 to continuously participate in the reaction.

In addition, the liquid-solid mixed phase product is conveyed into an external secondary cyclone 26 through a liquid-solid mixed phase product circulating pipe 27 to further remove solid, so that catalyst micro powder in the liquid-solid mixed phase product is removed, the catalyst micro powder is prevented from being coked and adhered to the flowing wall surface, the wall surface corrosion and the catalyst deactivation are caused, and the removal and the regeneration of the catalyst micro powder are realized.
In addition, the clean liquid phase product obtained after further solid removal enters the ebullated bed hydrogenation reactor along the cyclone conduit 28 connected to the secondary cyclone 26, and enters the upper part of the inner cavity of the pressure-bearing shell 23 under the action of the gas-liquid distributor 24 to continuously participate in the reaction, thereby realizing the same-level recycling of the liquid phase product, improving the separation efficiency and the utilization rate of resources.
Specifically, the particle size range of the catalyst particles is 0.04-0.1 mm; the particle size range of the large-particle-size catalyst particles is 0.07-0.1 mm; smaller particle size catalyst particles or powders having a particle size of less than 0.07mm.
