Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the preparation of a hydrocarbon mixture having a Ramsbottom Carbon Test Value (RCT) of a%w and an initial boiling point of T 1 °C.
- RCT Ramsbottom Carbon Test Value
- the RCT is an important parameter in the assessment of the suitability of heavy hydrocarbon mixtures as feed stocks for catalytic conversion processes, such as catalytic cracking, carried out in the presence or absence of hydrogen, for the preparation of light hydrocarbon distillates, such as gasoline and kerosine. According as the feed has a higher RCT, the catalyst will be deactivated more rapidly in these processes.
- Residual hydrocarbon mixtures such as residues obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil and asphaltic bitumen separated in the solvent deasphalting of the said distillation residues or of residues obtained in the distillation of a hydrotreated residual fraction of a crude mineral oil generally have too high an RCT to be suitable without previous treatment for use as feeds for the above-mentioned catalytic conversion processes. Since the RCT of residual hydrocarbon mixtures is mainly determined by the percentage of asphaltenes present in the mixtures, a reduction of the RCT of these mixtures can be obtained by reducing the asphaltenes content. Basically, this may be achieved in two ways.
- Part of the asphaltenes may be separated from the mixture by solvent deasphalting, or part of the asphaltenes may be converted by subjecting the mixture to a catalytic hydrotreatment.
- the latter method is preferred, in the first place, because its yield of heavy product with a low RCT is higher and further because, in contrast to the former method, where asphaltic bitumen is obtained as a by-product, it yields a valuable C 5 + atmospheric distillate as a by-product.
- yields are low
- only the latter method is eligible for the preparation of heavy product with a low RCT from asphaltic bitumen or from mixtures of asphaltic bitumen and distillation residue.
- a drawback to the latter method is that it gives rise to the formation of an undesirable C 4 - fraction which, moreover, contributes considerably to the hydrogen consumption of the process.
- asphaltic bitumen may be separated by solvent deasphalting that a deasphalted atmospheric residue is obtained which has the desired RCT of a%w.
- the atmospheric residue may be separated by distillation into a vacuum distillate and a vacuum residue, and from the vacuum residue so much asphaltic bitumen may be separated by solvent deasphalting that a deasphalted vacuum residue is obtained having an RCT which is such that, when this deasphalted vacuum residue is mixed with the previously separated vacuum distillate, an oil is obtained which has the desired RCT of a%w.
- Go as well as the conditions at which G reaches a value between 1.5 x G e and 2.0 x Go may be read from a graph composed on the basis of a number of catalytic hydrotreatment scouting experiments with the asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixture carried out at different severities and in which the occurring G's have been plotted against the severities applied.
- the space velocity which is variable
- the other conditions in the scouting experiments are kept constant and chosen equal to those which will be used when the process is applied in practice.
- the present patent application therefore relates to a process for the preparation of a hydrocarbon mixture with an RCT of a%w and an initial boiling point of T 1 °C, in which an asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixture is subjected to a catalytic hydrotreatment, the product obained being separated by distillation into an atmospheric distillate and an atmospheric residue having an initial boiling point of T 1 °C, in which either a deasphalted atmospheric residue having the desired RCT of a%w is obtained from the said atmospheric residue by solvent deasphalting, or in which the atmospheric residue is first separated by distillation into a vacuum distillate and a vacuum residue, from which vacuum residue asphaltic bitumen is separated by solvent deasphalting such that a deasphalted vacuum residue is obtained having an RCT such that, when this latter deasphalted vacuum residue is mixed with the said vacuum distillate, a mixture having the desired RCT of a%w is obtained, the catalytic hydrotreatment being carried out under such conditions that the C 4 - production per
- the process according to the invention is a two-step process in which reduction of the RCT is attained through reduction of the asphaltenes content.
- the asphaltenes content is reduced by converting part of the asphaltenes by means of a catalytic hydrotreatment.
- the asphaltenes content is reduced by separating part of the asphaltenes by means of solvent deasphalting.
- Asphaltenes containing hydrocarbon mixtures usually contain an appreciable percentage of metals, especially vanadium and nickel. When such mixtures are subjected to a catalytic treatment, e.g.
- asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixtures having a vanadium + nickel content of more than 50 ppmw should preferably be subjected to demetallization before being contacted with the RCT-reduction catalyst.
- This demetallization may very suitably be carried out by contacting the mixture in the presence of hydrogen, with a catalyst consisting of more than 80%w of silica.
- Very suitable demetallization catalysts are those which meet certain given requirements as regards their porosity and particle size and which are described in Netherlands Patent Application No. 7309387.
- a catalytic demetallization in the presence of hydrogen is applied to the hydrocarbon mixture, this demetallization may be carried out in a separate reactor.
- both processes may very suitably be carried out in the same reactor containing, successively, a bed of demetallization catalyst and a bed of RCT-reduction catalyst.
- RCT reduction should be taken to be the total RCT reduction occurring in the catalytic hydrotreatment (i.e. including the RCT reduction occurring in a possible catalytic demetallization process).
- Suitable catalysts for carrying out the catalytic RCT reduction are those which contain at least one metal chosen from the group formed by nickel and cobalt and, in addition, at least one metal chosen from the group formed by molybdenum and tungsten on a carrier, which carrier consists more than 40%w of alumina.
- Very suitable RCT-reduction catalysts are those which comprise the metal combination nickel/ molybdenum or cobalt/molybdenum on alumina as the carrier.
- the conditions to be used in a catalytic demetallization process in the presence of hydrogen to be carried out if necessary, the same preference applies as that stated hereinbefore for the catalytic RCT reduction.
- the desired RCT reduction in the first step of the process according to the invention may, for instance, be achieved by application of the space velocity pertaining to that RCT reduction, which can be read from a graph composed on the basis of a number of catalytic hydrotreatment scouting experiments with the asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixture carried out at different space velocities and in which the RCT reductions achieved have been plotted against the space velocities used.
- the space velocity which is variable, the other conditions in the scouting experiments are kept constant and chosen equal to those which will be used when the process according to the invention is applied in practice.
- the second step of the process according to the invention is a solvent deasphalting step applied to a residue from the distillation of the hydrotreated product of the first step.
- the distillation residue to which the solvent deasphalting step is applied may be an atmospheric residue or a vacuum residue from the hydrotreated product.
- a vacuum residue from the hydrotreated product is used for the purpose.
- Suitable solvents for carrying out the solvent deasphalting are paraffinic hydrocarbons having 3-6 carbon atoms per molecule, such as n-butane and mixtures thereof, such as mixtures of propane with n-butane and mixtures of n-butane with n-pentane.
- Suitable solvent/oil weight ratios lie between 7:1 and 1:1 and in particular between 4:1 and 2:1.
- the solvent deasphalting is preferably carried out at a pressure between 20 and 100 bar.
- the deasphalting is preferably carried out at a pressure of 35 ⁇ 45 bar and a temperature of 100-150 0 C.
- the desired RCT of the deasphalted atmospheric residue may be attained, for instance, by using the deasphalting temperature pertaining to that RCT, which can be read from a graph composed on the basis of a number of deasphalting scouting experiments with the atmospheric residue carried out at different temperatures in which the RCT's of the deasphalted atmospheric residues obtained have been plotted against the temperatures applied.
- the temperature which is variable, the other conditions in the scouting experiments are kept constant and chosen equal to those which will be used when the process according to the invention is applied in practice.
- the RCT and the quantity of the deasphalted vacuum residue should be adjusted to the quantity and the RCT of the vacuum distillate as follows.
- VD vacuum distillate
- B pbw of deasphalted vacuum residue will have to be prepared, its RCT DVR being such that it obeys the relation: or, expressed otherwise,
- the left-hand member is known.
- RCT M is known.
- a graph can be composed in which the term B(RCTo vR - RCT M ) has been plotted against the temperature used.
- the temperature to be applied in the deasphalting in the second step of the process according to the invention may be read from this graph, this being the temperature at which the term B(RCT DVR - RCT M ) has the given value A(RCT M - RCT VD ).
- the other conditions in the scouting experiments on deasphalting are kept constant and chosen equal to those which will be applied when the process according to the invention is used in practice.
- the metal content is also an important parameter in assessing the suitability of heavy hydrocarbon oils as feeds for catalytic conversion processes, in the presence or absence of hydrogen, for the preparation of light hydrocarbon distillates, such as gasoline and kerosine. According as the feed has a higher metal content, the catalyst will be deactivated more rapidly in these processes. As a rule, residual feed mixtures have not only too high an RCT, but also too high a metal content to be suitable, without treatment, as feeds for the afore-mentioned catalytic conversion processes.
- the product obtained in the process according to the invention is a deasphalted atmospheric residue or a mixture of a vacuum distillate and a deasphalted vacuum residue, which product, in addition to a low RCT, has a very low metal content.
- This is due to a considerable extent to the fact that the metal-containing distillation residue which is subjected to solvent deasphalting has been catalytically hydrotreated.
- the solvent deasphalting of such metal-containing residues shows a very high metal-removing selectivity.
- asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixtures As asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon mixtures to be used as feed for the process according to the invention the following six are preferred:
- a mixture of an asphaltic bitumen I separated in the solvent deasphalting of a residue obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil and an asphaltic bitumen II separated in the solvent deasphalting of a residue obtained in the distillation of a hydrotreated residual fraction of a crude mineral oil which mixture comprises less than 50 pbw of asphaltic bitumen II per 100 pbw of asphaltic bitumen I.
- the average molecular weight M of the asphaltic bitumen I used as feed component in feed 6 as well as the average molecular weight M of the asphaltic bitumen used as feed 3 are determined by ASTM method D 3592-77 using toluene as solvent.
- the relations 1-6 mentioned above offer an opportunity of determining whether, in view of the maximum acceptable value of G (corresponding to 2.0 x Go), it is possible by catalytic hydrotreatment alone, starting from the feeds 1-6, to prepare a product from which, by distillation, an atmospheric residue can be obtained which has a given initial boiling point of T 1 °C and a given RCT of a%w. If, according to the relations, this proves impossible and, therefore, the combination route has to be applied, the relations further indicate the limits between which, in the catalytic hydrotreatment of the combination route, the RCT reductions should be chosen to ensure optimum efficiency of the combination route.
- the feeds 4 ⁇ 6 are composed of two blending components.
- One of these blending components (blending component I) is selected from the group consisting of atmospheric residues obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil, vacuum residues obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil and asphaltic bitumen separated in the solvent deasphalting of a residue obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil.
- the other blending component (blending component II) is an asphaltic bitumen separated in the solvent deasphalting of a residue obtained in the distillation of a hydrotreated residual fraction of a crude mineral oil. Examples of the latter residual fractions are atmospheric residues and vacuum residues obtained in the distillation of a crude mineral oil and asphaltic bitumen separated in the solvent deasphalting of these residues.
- a very attractive embodiment of the process according to the invention in which one of the feeds 4-6 is used is that in which the blending component II used as a component of the feed for the first step is the asphaltic bitumen obtained in the solvent deasphalting in the second step.
- the conditions for attaining the desired RCT reduction in the first step of the process, with recirculation of asphaltic bitumen may be determined as follows. The relation found is used to determine the RCT reduction to be employed in the catalytic hydrotreatment in order to ensure optimum efficiency in the combination process, when blending component I is the only feed used.
- the space velocity to be used for the purpose is determined on the basis of a number of catalytic hydrotreatment experiments using blending component I as the feed.
- an oil is prepared which has the desired RCT of a%w and the desired initial boiling point of T i °C, and an asphaltic bitumen (asphaltic bitumen A) is obtained as a by-product.
- the relation found is used to determine the RCT reduction to be employed in the catalytic hydrotreatment in order to ensure optimum efficiency in the combination process when a mixture of blending component I, and asphaltic bitumen A having the desired ratio r is used as the feed.
- the space velocity to be used for the purpose is determined on the basis of a number of catalytic hydrotreatment scouting experiments using the mixture of blending component I and asphaltic bitumen A as the feed.

- the mixture ABC with an RCT of 15.5 %w (b) was subjected to catalytic hydrotreatment in fifteen experiments to prepare atmospheric residues having an initial boiling point of 370°C and different RCT's (c).
- the experiments were similar to those described for Experiments 1-13, the weight ratio between the Ni/V/ Si0 2 and Co/Mo/Al 2 O 3 catalysts however being 1:2.
- the reaction conditions were: a temperature of 400°C, a pressure of 160 bar and a H 2 /oil ratio of 1500 Ni/kg, varying space velocities being used.
- the results of Experiments 102-116 at run hour 250 are listed in Table P.
- Experiments 111, 112 and 116 are experiments according to the invention. The other experiments have been included for reasons of comparison. As can be seen in Table P in Experiments 110-111 and 112-113, in which RCT reductions were achieved of about 60 and 70%, respectively, G was about 1.5 Go and 2.0 G c , respectively.
