EP-A-0 073 527), the catalytic treatment of heavy and residual oils takes place in the presence of brown coal coke, which is mixed with catalytically active metals, preferably with their sulfates, oxides or sulfides or with dust lignite gasification in a concentration of 0.1 to 10% by weight, based on the heavy residual oils. These catalysts or additives are used in a very fine distribution with a grain size of less than 90 µm.
Das Dokument US-A-3,622,498 beschreibt ebenfalls einen Prozeß, in dem asphalthaltige Kohlenwasserstoffeinsätze in Gegenwart von Wasserstoff bei 68 bar und 427 °C mit einer Aufschlämmung kleiner Katalysatorteilchen, die wenigstens ein Metall der Elementengruppe Va, VIa oder VIIIa des Periodensystems enthalten, konvertiert werden.Document US-A-3,622,498 also describes a process in which asphalt-containing hydrocarbon inserts are converted in the presence of hydrogen at 68 bar and 427 ° C with a slurry of small catalyst particles which contain at least one metal from element group Va, VIa or VIIIa of the periodic table .
In dem Dokument US-A-4,396,495 wird ein Prozeß für die Konversion von kohlenwasserstoffhaltigen Dunkelölen in Suspensionsreaktoren unter Einsatz feinverteilter Metallkatalysatoren, wie Vanadiumsulfid, mit einer Partikelgröße von 0,1 bis 2000 µm, vorzugsweise von 0,1 bis 100 µm beschrieben.

Diese Methode ist bei Temperaturen von über 430 °C nicht anwendbar, da sich die Silikone zersetzen und ihre Aktivität verlieren. Das Silizium verbleibt in der niedrig siedenden Fraktion und führt zu Schwierigkeiten im up-stream-Prozeß.Document US-A-4,396,495 describes a process for the conversion of hydrocarbon-containing dark oils in suspension reactors using finely divided metal catalysts, such as vanadium sulfide, with a particle size of 0.1 to 2000 μm, preferably 0.1 to 100 μm. A silicone based anti-foaming agent is also added to to reduce foam formation in the hydrocracking zone, where the reaction takes place at 510 ° C., 204 bar and a catalyst concentration of 0.1 to 10% by weight. This method cannot be used at temperatures above 430 ° C because the silicones decompose and lose their activity. The silicon remains in the low-boiling fraction and leads to difficulties in the upstream process.
Das Dokument CA-A-1,117,887 beschreibt einen Hydrocrackingprozeß für die Überführung von Schweröl in leichtere Kohlenwasserstoffe unter hohem Druck und hoher Temperatur. Das Schweröl wird mit einem feinteiligen Braunkohlenadditiv mit einer Korngröße von weniger als 149 µm, das mit wenigstens einem Metall der Elementengruppe IVa oder VIII des Periodensystems beladen ist, vermengt.Document CA-A-1,117,887 describes a hydrocracking process for converting heavy oil into lighter hydrocarbons under high pressure and high temperature. The heavy oil is mixed with a finely divided brown coal additive with a grain size of less than 149 μm, which is loaded with at least one metal from element group IVa or VIII of the periodic table.
In dem Dokument US-A-4,591,426 wird ebenfalls ein Hydrokonversionsprozeß von schweren Einsatzstoffen mit einem Metallgehalt von wenigstens 200 ppm bei Temperaturen oberhalb von 400 °C und einem Wasserstoffgesamtdruck von 1022 bar unter Einsatz eines natürlichen anorganischen Materials, wie Laterit oder Limonit, beschrieben.

Diese hohen Gasgeschwindigkeiten werden in industriellen Reaktoren erreicht.It can be seen from this that, in the treatment of hydrocarbons, it has not hitherto been recognized that under catalytic sump phase conditions using cheap catalysts or additives which have been described above, foam is produced which, at gas velocities of more than 3 cm / s, the amount of liquid in the reaction zone reduced. These high gas velocities are achieved in industrial reactors.

Gemäß der Erfindung werden diese Aufgaben dadurch gelöst, daß die Komponente in zwei unterschiedlichen Korngrößenverteilungen aus getrennten Mahlungen zugesetzt wird, derart, daß eine Feinkornfraktion mit einer Korngröße von 90 µm oder weniger und eine Grobkornfraktion mit einer Korngröße von 90 bis 1 000 µm, vorzugsweise 100 bis 500 µm vorliegt und letztere einen Anteil von 5 - 80 Gew.-% der zugesetzten Komponente ausmacht.According to the invention, these objects are achieved in that the component is added in two different grain size distributions from separate grindings, such that a fine grain fraction with a grain size of 90 μm or less and a coarse grain fraction with a grain size of 90 to 1,000 μm, preferably 100 Up to 500 microns is present and the latter makes up a share of 5 - 80 wt .-% of the added component.
Eine Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens liegt darin, daß der Anteil der Grobkornfraktion zwischen 10 und 30 und insbesondere zwischen 20 und 30 Gew.-% der zugesetzten Komponente beträgt.One embodiment of the method according to the invention is that the proportion of the coarse grain fraction is between 10 and 30 and in particular between 20 and 30% by weight of the added component.
Für die Anfahrphase des vorliegenden Verfahrens besteht eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung darin, daß der Grobkornanteil mehr als 20 Gew.-% der Menge der zugesetzten Komponente beträgt.A preferred embodiment for the start-up phase of the present method is that the coarse grain fraction is more than 20% by weight of the amount of the component added.
Die Erfindung kann auch für die Hydrierung von Gemischen aus Schwer-, oder Rückstandsölen oder Abfallölen mit gemahlener Braunkohle und/oder Steinkohle angewendet werden, wobei das Öl/Kohle-Gewichtsverhältnis zwischen 5 : 1 und 1 : 1,5 liegt.The invention can also be used for the hydrogenation of mixtures of heavy or residual oils or waste oils with ground brown coal and / or hard coal, the oil / coal weight ratio being between 5: 1 and 1: 1.5.
Die Kohle kann als Grobkornfraktion mit einem entsprechenden Anteil einer Korngröße von 100 µm und mehr eingesetzt werden.The coal can be used as a coarse grain fraction with a corresponding proportion of a grain size of 100 µm and more.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird hiermit erstmals offenbart, daß vom fluiddynamischen Gesichtspunkt aus die Flüssigkeitsmenge in der Hydrocrackingzone des Reaktors für eine gegebene Gasgeschwindigkeit beim Einsatz größerer Partikel zunächst zunimmt.According to the invention, it is hereby disclosed for the first time that, from a fluid dynamic point of view, the amount of liquid in the hydrocracking zone of the reactor initially increases for a given gas velocity when larger particles are used.
Die vorliegende Erfindung ermöglicht eine verbesserte Ausnutzung der Reaktionszone durch Anwendung zweier Dosierströme des Katalysators mit zwei unterschiedlichen Korngrößenverteilungen.The present invention enables improved utilization of the reaction zone by using two metering streams of the catalyst with two different particle size distributions.
Eine Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung offenbart einen Konversionsprozeß für schwere Rohöle mit einer Dichte von weniger als 20 °API, mehr als 200 ppm Metallgehalt und mehr als 5 Gew.-% Conradson-Kohle in Anwesenheit von Wasserstoff und einem Katalysator in einem Sumpfphasenreaktor, in dem sich eine aufwärtsgerichtete Dreiphasenströmung ausbildet.An embodiment of the present invention discloses a conversion process for heavy crude oils with a density of less than 20 ° API, more than 200 ppm metal content and more than 5% by weight Conradson coal in the presence of hydrogen and a catalyst in a bottom phase reactor in which an upward three-phase flow is formed.
Der Katalysator kann Metalle der Elementengruppe Va, VIa oder VIIIa des Periodensystems umfassen, mit oder ohne porösen Träger, auf dem auch in dem Rohöl enthaltene Metalle abgeschieden werden.The catalyst can comprise metals from element group Va, VIa or VIIIa of the periodic table, with or without a porous support, on which metals also contained in the crude oil are deposited.
Es wurde gefunden, daß größere Partikel mit Korngrößen im Bereich von 100 µm und mehr bei Gasgeschwindigkeiten von 3 cm/s und mehr in der Lage sind, die Schaumbildung im Reaktor zu vermindern, wenn sie in einer Menge von nicht weniger als 0,5 Gew.-% des schweren Öleinsatzes dem Hydrocracker zugeführt werden. Es ist von Bedeutung, darauf hinzuweisen, daß bei Verminderung der Schaumbildung im Reaktor und die dadurch bewirkte Zunahme des Flüssigkeitsvolumens die gewünschte Konversion von über 500 °C siedenden Fraktionen in niedriger siedende Fraktionen bei gemäßigten Temperaturen erreicht werden kann.It has been found that larger particles with grain sizes in the range of 100 microns and more at gas velocities of 3 cm / s and more are able to reduce the foaming in the reactor when they are used in an amount of not less than 0.5 wt .-% of the heavy oil input are fed to the hydrocracker. It is important to point out that if the foam formation in the reactor is reduced and the resulting increase in the liquid volume, the desired conversion of fractions boiling above 500 ° C. into lower boiling fractions can be achieved at moderate temperatures.
Außerdem offenbart die vorliegende Erfindung, daß für sehr hohe Konversionsraten (90 % und mehr) von oberhalb 500 °C siedenden Fraktionen bei mäßig hohen Strömungsgeschwindigkeiten (0,5 t/m³h oder mehr) ein beträchtlicher Anteil von kleinen Partikeln (unter 50 µm) gebraucht wird, da dies bedeutende Vorteile für die Hydrierkapazität des Katalysatorsystems bringt.In addition, the present invention discloses that for very high conversion rates (90% and more) of fractions boiling above 500 ° C. at moderately high flow rates (0.5 t / m³h or more), a considerable proportion of small particles (below 50 μm) are required because this brings significant advantages for the hydrogenation capacity of the catalyst system.
Obwohl die thermodynamischen, fluiddynamischen und kinetischen Zusammenhänge bei der Sumpfphasenhydrierung unter Zugabe von Additiven oder Katalysatoren in einem von unten nach oben durchströmten Rohrreaktor noch nicht vollständig geklärt sind, wird angenommen, daß der Grobkornanteil die Schaumbildung oder auch die Gasverweilzeit beschränkt und daß sich die Flüssigkeitsmenge auf Kosten des Gasanteils innerhalb des Reaktors, was sich durch den Differenzdruck über die Reaktorhöhe sowie die Konversionsrate und die Vorwärmtemperatur ausdrückt, steigert. Dieses Phänomen macht sich bei Gasgeschwindigkeiten im Reaktor von mehr als 3 cm/s, Temperaturen von mehr als 250 °C und Drücken zwischen 50 und 300 bar bemerkbar.Although the thermodynamic, fluid dynamic and kinetic relationships in the bottom phase hydrogenation with the addition of additives or catalysts in a bottom-flow tube reactor have not yet been completely clarified, it is assumed that the coarse grain fraction limits the foam formation or the gas residence time and that the amount of liquid is limited to Cost of the gas portion within the reactor, which is reflected by the differential pressure across the reactor height as well expresses the conversion rate and the preheating temperature. This phenomenon is noticeable at gas velocities in the reactor of more than 3 cm / s, temperatures of more than 250 ° C and pressures between 50 and 300 bar.
Ein Maß für die Hydrierkapazität des eingesetzten Katalysator-Additiv-Systems ist das Verhältnis xA : xR (xA = Asphaltkonversionsrate nach DIN 51 525 und xR = Rückstandskonversion [500 °C⁺]), welches unter günstigsten Voraussetzungen, d. h. bei Vermeidung von Asphalt- und Koksablagerungen, einen Wert nahe 1 ergibt. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß für eine hohe Rückstandskonversion (xR ≧ 87 %) das Verhältnis xA : xR nahe bei 1 liegt, wenn nicht weniger als 1 Gew.-% einer Feinkornfraktion (kleiner als 50 µm) bezogen auf den Schweröleinsatz eingesetzt wird.A measure of the hydrogenation capacity of the catalyst-additive system used is the ratio x A : x R (x A = asphalt conversion rate according to DIN 51 525 and x R = residue conversion [500 ° C⁺]), which under the most favorable conditions, ie if avoided of asphalt and coke deposits, gives a value close to 1. It could be shown that for a high residue conversion (x R ≧ 87%) the ratio x A : x R is close to 1 if not less than 1% by weight of a fine grain fraction (less than 50 µm) based on the heavy oil input is used.
Diese Fakten haben zu dem vorliegenden Vorschlag des Einsatzes eines doppelten Dosiersystems für den Zusatz einer optimalen gewünschten Korngrößenverteilung zwecks verbesserter Ausnutzung des Sumpfphasenhydrierreaktors vom Blasensäulentyp geführt.These facts have led to the present proposal for the use of a double metering system for the addition of an optimum desired particle size distribution for the purpose of improved utilization of the bottom phase hydrogenation reactor of the bubble column type.
Durch zwei verschiedene und unabhängige Dosiersysteme, wobei mittels eines Dosiersystems die hochaktive Feinkornfraktion vorzugsweise einer Korngröße von unter 50 µm und mittels eines zweiten Dosiersystems die Grobkornfraktion eines weniger aktiven Katalysators oder inerten Materials mit einer Korngröße von 100 bis 1000 µm, vorzugsweise 150 bis 1000 µm eingespeist wird, was der Anpassung des Systems an die fluiddynamischen Erfordernisse dient, wird die Flüssigkeitsmenge im Sumpfphasereaktor maximiert.By means of two different and independent metering systems, the highly active fine grain fraction preferably having a grain size of less than 50 μm by means of a metering system and the coarse grain fraction of a less active catalyst by means of a second metering system or inert material with a grain size of 100 to 1000 microns, preferably 150 to 1000 microns is fed, which serves to adapt the system to the fluid dynamic requirements, the amount of liquid in the bottom phase reactor is maximized.
Die entsprechende Katalysatormischung, die aus Komponenten zweier unterschiedlicher Korngrößenverteilungen gebildet wird, kann auch zuvor in einer anderen separaten Apparatur hergestellt werden, um dann über ein einziges Dosiersystem mit dem Öleinsatz in Kontakt gebracht zu werden.The corresponding catalyst mixture, which is formed from components of two different particle size distributions, can also be prepared beforehand in another separate apparatus, in order then to be brought into contact with the oil insert via a single metering system.
Ein bemerkenswerter Aspekt der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, daß zwei separate Korngrößenverteilungen des Katalysators eingesetzt werden, wobei beide Fraktionen aus dem gleichen oder aus verschiedenen Materialien bestehen können.A remarkable aspect of the present invention is that two separate particle size distributions of the catalyst are used, where both fractions can consist of the same or different materials.
Figur 1 stellt den erfindungsgemäßen Hydrokonversionsprozeß mit anschließender Destillation und Hydrodesulfurierung in einem Fließschema dar.FIG. 1 shows the hydroconversion process according to the invention with subsequent distillation and hydrodesulfurization in a flow diagram.
Gemäß Figur 1 wird die Feinkornfraktion über Leitung 1, aus dem Vorratsgefäß 2 diskontinuierlich über Ventil 3 in einen Wägebehälter 4 eingebracht, von dem über einen kontinuierlichen Schraubenförderer 5 die gewünschte Menge der zugesetzten Komponente über Leitung 6 dem Mischbehälter 13 zugeführt wird. Über das zweite Dosiersystem wird die Grobkornfraktion des Einwegkatalysators oder Additivs, zugeführt. Die Grobkornfraktion wird über Leitung 7 im Vorratsgefäß 8 bereitgestellt und diskontinuierlich über Ventil 9 dem Wägebehälter 10 zugeführt. Über einen kontinuierlichen Schraubenförderer 11 wird die gewünschte Menge an Grobkornfraktion in den Mischbehälter 13 eingeführt und mit dem über Leitung 16 zugeführten schweren Öl und der Feinkornfraktion vermischt.According to FIG. 1, the fine-grain fraction is introduced via line 1, from the
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die dargestellte Ausführungsform mit den beschriebenen zwei Dosiersystemen beschränkt. Die unterschiedlichen Kornfraktionen des Katalysators können auch auf andere Weise zugeführt werden.The invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment with the two dosing systems described. The different grain fractions of the catalyst can also be supplied in other ways.
Das Schweröl und die beiden Kornfraktionen des Katalysators werden vom Mischbehälter 13 über Leitung 14 einer Hochdruckpumpe 15 und über Leitung 15' den Wärmetauschern 49 und 50 zugeführt, in denen dieser Stoffstrom unter Ausnutzung der Reaktionswärme der Reaktionsprodukte vorgeheizt wird. Der frische Wasserstoff wird über Leitung 61, das wasserstoffhaltige Kreislaufgas über Leitung 59 dem Kreislaufgasvorheizer 63 zugeleitet, wo das Gas auf 200 bis 500 °C aufgeheizt und zusammen mit dem vorgeheizten Einsatzstrom aus Leitung 50' dem Erhitzer 18 zugeführt wird.The heavy oil and the two grain fractions of the catalyst are fed from the
Das Reaktorsystem besteht aus einem oder mindestens zwei in Reihe geschalteten Reaktoren. Bevorzugt werden drei hintereinandergeschaltete Reaktoren eingesetzt. Die Reaktoren 20, 24 und 27 sind senkrecht stehende Rohrreaktoren mit oder ohne Einbauten, die mit Flußrichtung von unten nach oben betrieben werden. Hier erfolgt die Konversion bei Temperaturen zwischen 400 und 490 °C, vorzugsweise 430 und 480 °C, einem Wasserstoffpartialdruck zwischen 50 und 300 bar und einer Kreislaufgasmenge von 100 Nm³/t bis 10000 Nm³/t. Durch Kaltgaseinspeisung über die Leitungen 21, 23 und 26 ist eine quasiisotherme Fahrweise der Reaktoren möglich.The reactor system consists of one or at least two reactors connected in series. To be favoured three reactors connected in series. The
In nachgeschalteten Heißabscheidern, die auf annähernd gleichem Temperaturniveau betrieben werden wie die Reaktoren, wird der nichtkonvertierte Anteil der eingesetzten Schwer- und Rückstandsöle sowie der Feststoffe von den unter Prozeßbedingungen gasförmigen Reaktionsprodukten getrennt. Das Sumpfprodukt der Heißabscheider wird in einer mehrstufigen Flasheinheit entspannt. Im Falle des kombinierten Betriebs von Sumpf- und Gasphase werden das Kopfprodukt der Heißabscheider, die Flashgestillate sowie eventuell mitzuverarbeitende Rohöldestillatfraktionen vereinigt und den nachgeschalteten Gasphasereaktoren zugeführt. Unter gleichem Gesamtdruck wie in der Sumpfphase erfolgt ein Hydrotreating oder auch mildes Hydrocracken an einem katalytischen Festbett unter trickle-flow-Bedingungen.In downstream hot separators, which are operated at approximately the same temperature level as the reactors, the unconverted portion of the heavy and residual oils used as well as the solids is separated from the gaseous reaction products under process conditions. The bottom product of the hot separator is expanded in a multi-stage flash unit. In the case of combined operation of the bottom and gas phases, the top product of the hot separators, the flash stills and any crude oil distillate fractions to be processed are combined and fed to the downstream gas phase reactors. Hydrotreating or mild hydrocracking is carried out on a fixed catalytic bed under trickle-flow conditions under the same total pressure as in the sump phase.
Nach intensiver Kühlung und Kondensation werden Gas und Flüssigkeit in einem Hochdruck-Kaltabscheider getrennt. Das Flüssigprodukt wird entspannt und kann in raffinerieüblichen Prozessen weiterverarbeitet werden.After intensive cooling and condensation, gas and liquid are separated in a high-pressure cold separator Cut. The liquid product is relaxed and can be further processed in standard refinery processes.
Aus dem Prozeßgas werden die gasförmigen Reaktionsprodukte (C₁ bis C₄-Gase, H₂S, NH₃) weitgehend abgetrennt, der verbleibende Wasserstoff wird als Kreislaufgas zurückgeführt.The gaseous reaction products (C₁ to C₄ gases, H₂S, NH₃) are largely separated from the process gas, the remaining hydrogen is recycled as recycle gas.
Es wurde festgestellt, daß durch die Kontrolle der Feststoffmenge im Reaktor die Flüssigkeitsmenge im Reaktor optimiert werden kann, so daß die Konversion des schweren Rohöls im Reaktionssystem bei gleichzeitiger Verminderung der Vorheiztemperatur zunimmt, wodurch die Investitions- und Betriebskosten des Vorheizersystems verringert werden.It has been found that by controlling the amount of solids in the reactor, the amount of liquid in the reactor can be optimized so that the conversion of the heavy crude oil in the reaction system increases while the preheating temperature is reduced, thereby reducing the investment and operating costs of the preheater system.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren bringt besondere Vorteile für den Fall, daß die Gasgeschwindigkeit im Reaktor unter Reaktionsbedingungen größer als 3 cm/s bezogen auf den Reaktorquerschnitt beträgt, was für Gasgeschwindigkeiten in industriellen Reaktoren normalerweise zutreffend ist.The process according to the invention has particular advantages in the event that the gas velocity in the Reactor under reaction conditions is greater than 3 cm / s based on the reactor cross section, which is normally true for gas velocities in industrial reactors.
Es wurde festgestellt, daß bei Gasgeschwindigkeiten im Reaktor von mehr als 3 cm/s und ohne Einsatz einer Grobkornfraktion die Flüssigkeitsfüllung sehr niedrig bleibt, was an einem niedrigen Differenzdruck bei geringer Konversionsrate und einer hohen Vorheiztemperatur erkannt werden kann. Andererseits führt ein zu großer Anteil an Grobkornfraktion dazu, daß sich diese Partikel im Laufe der Zeit im Reaktor akkumulieren, so daß die Flüssigkeitsmenge im Reaktor und damit der on-stream-Faktor des Reaktionssystems wieder abnimmt.It was found that at gas velocities in the reactor of more than 3 cm / s and without the use of a coarse grain fraction, the liquid filling remains very low, which can be recognized from a low differential pressure with a low conversion rate and a high preheating temperature. On the other hand, too large a proportion of coarse-grained fraction causes these particles to accumulate in the reactor over time, so that the amount of liquid in the reactor and thus the on-stream factor of the reaction system decreases again.
In der Regel wird das gleiche Material als Feinkorn- und als Grobkornfraktion zugegeben. Es ist jedoch auch möglich und in manchen Fällen sogar vorteilhaft, Material verschiedener Zusammensetzungen für die Fein- und Grobkornfraktion einzusetzen, z. B. Fe₂O₃ als Feinkornfraktion mit einer Partikelgröße mit einer oberen Grenze von 30 µm und für die Grobkornfraktion Aktivkoks aus Braunkohle mit einer unteren Korngröße von 100 µm.As a rule, the same material is added as a fine grain and a coarse grain fraction. However, it is also possible and in some cases even advantageous to use material of different compositions for the fine and coarse grain fraction, e.g. B. Fe₂O₃ as a fine grain fraction with a particle size with an upper limit of 30 microns and for the coarse grain fraction activated coke from lignite with a lower grain size of 100 microns.
Die beiden Katalysatorfraktionen müssen nicht notwendigerweise über zwei getrennte Dosiersysteme dem Katalysator-Öl-Mischbehälter 13 (Figur 1) zugeführt, sondern können auch vorher vermischt und als Katalysatormischung direkt zugegeben werden. Entscheidend ist lediglich die Verwendung zweier unterschiedlicher Korngrößenverteilungen des Katalysators oder Additivs von derselben oder unterschiedlichen chemischen Spezies. Gerade der Einsatz dieser beiden Katalysatorfraktionen führt zu dem in der Erfindung beschriebenen unerwarteten Ergebnis.The two catalyst fractions do not necessarily have to be fed to the catalyst-oil mixing container 13 (FIG. 1) via two separate metering systems. but can also be mixed beforehand and added directly as a catalyst mixture. The only decisive factor is the use of two different particle size distributions of the catalyst or additive from the same or different chemical species. The use of these two catalyst fractions leads to the unexpected result described in the invention.
Das Hydrocrackprodukt wird nach Verlassen des Reaktorsystems 20, 24, 27 über Leitung 28 in den ersten Heißabscheider 29 geführt, um die Gas-/Dampfphase von den schwereren flüssigen Produkten, die nichtkonvertierte Rückstände, (Katalysator) enthalten, zu trennen. Die Temperatur der Heißabscheider 29 und 33 wird durch die Zufuhr von Quenchgas über die Leitungen 32 und 34, das am Boden eingespeist wird, in einem Bereich von 300 bis 450 °C reguliert. Der zweite Heißabscheider 33 dient hauptsächlich als Abstreifer für die Gasphasereaktoren 40 und 46.After leaving the
Für den Fall eines kombinierten Sumpf- und Gasphaseprozesses wird das Kopfprodukt des zweiten Heißabscheiders 33 über Leitung 36, das Flashdestillat 77 ebenso wie das Rohöldestillat 36', das an anderer Stelle erzeugt wird, vereinigt und den Gasphasereaktoren 40 und 46 bei demselben Gesamtdruck und etwa derselben oder einer etwas abgesenkten Temperatur wie im Sumpfphasenreaktor zugeführt. Die Betriebsbedingungen dieser Reaktoren liegen erfindungsgemäß für den Druck zwischen 50 und 300 bar, für die Temperatur zwischen 300 und 450 °C und für das Gas/Flüssigkeitsverhältnis zwischen 50 und 10000 Nm³/t. In diesem konventionellen Reaktor erfolgt ein Hydrotreating oder auch mildes Hydrocracken an Festbettreaktionszonen unter Trickle-Flow-Bedingungen unter Einsatz eines konventionellen Hydrodesulfurisierungskatalysators oder eines milden Hydrocrackingkatalysators aus den Gruppen VIa oder VIIIa des Periodensystems auf einem Aluminiumoxidträger.In the case of a combined bottom and gas phase process, the top product of the second
Das Produkt wird über Leitung 47 einer intensiven Kühlung und Kondensation (49, 50) zugeführt. Die Reaktionswärme wird zur Vorheizung des frischen Einsatzes verwendet. Das Gas-/Flüssiggemisch wird über Leitung 51 dem Hochdruckkaltabscheider 52 zugeführt. Das flüssige Produkt wird entspannt und kann anschließend der Standardraffinerietechnik zugeführt werden.The product is fed via line 47 to intensive cooling and condensation (49, 50). The heat of reaction is used to preheat the fresh insert. The gas / liquid mixture is fed to the high-pressure
Nach dem Durchlaufen des Kaltabscheiders 52 wird das gasförmige Reaktionsprodukt so weit wie möglich vom Prozeßgas abgetrennt, das über Leitung 56 abgeführt wird. Der verbleibende Wasserstoff wird über Leitung 57 dem Kompressor 58 zugeführt und über Leitung 59 in den Prozeß zurückgeführt. Das Sumpfprodukt der Heißabscheider 29 und 33 wird über Leitungen 32 und 34 einer mehrstufigen Flasheinheit 65 und 72 zugeführt, entspannt und der Rückstand der gebrauchten Katalysatoren oder Additive wird zur Aufarbeitung beispielsweise durch Verschwelung, Vergasung oder Feststofftrennung über Leitung 73 abgeführt, um später weiterverwendet werden zu können.After passing through the
Ein vertikaler Blasensäulenreaktor ohne Einbauten, dessen Temperatur über die Austrittstemperatur eines Vorheizersystems sowie über ein Kaltgasquenchsystem gesteuert wird, wird mit einem spezifischen Durchsatz von 1,5 t/m³h mit Vakuumrückstand aus einem konventionellen Rückstandsöl venezolanischer Herkunft bei einem Wasserstoffpartialdruck von 190 bar beaufschlagt, wobei 2000 Nm³ Wasserstoff pro Tonne Rückstand eingesetzt werden. Die Gasgeschwindigkeit beträgt 6 cm/s. Dem Einsatzprodukt werden 2 Gew.-% Braunkohlenkoks mit einer scharfen Kornobergrenze bei 90 µm zugesetzt. Unter diesen Verfahrensbedingungen wird bei einer Vorheizeraustrittstemperatur von 447 °C eine Temperatur im Reaktor von 455 °C erreicht. Der Differenzdruck über die Reaktorhöhe stellt sich auf etwa 100 mbar ein. Unter diesen Bedingungen wird eine Rückstandskonversion von näherungsweise 45 % erreicht.A vertical bubble column reactor without internals, the temperature of which is controlled via the outlet temperature of a preheater system and via a cold gas quench system, is charged with a specific throughput of 1.5 t / m³h with vacuum residue from a conventional residual oil of Venezuelan origin at a hydrogen partial pressure of 190 bar, whereby 2000 Nm³ of hydrogen can be used per ton of residue. The gas velocity is 6 cm / s. 2% by weight of lignite coke with a sharp upper grain limit at 90 μm are added to the feed product. Under these process conditions, a temperature in the reactor of 455 ° C. is reached at a preheater outlet temperature of 447 ° C. The differential pressure across the reactor height is about 100 mbar. A residue conversion of approximately 45% is achieved under these conditions.
Die Anlage wurde anschließend mit zwei verschiedenen Dosiersystemen betrieben. Eines führte 1,4 Gew.-% Braunkohlenkoks bezogen auf den Einsatz mit einer Korngröße unter 90 µm zu, während das zweite 0,6 Gew.-% Braunkohlenkoks bezogen auf den Einsatz mit einer Korngröße von mehr als 150 µm und weniger als 600 µm zuführte. Die gesamte Katalysatormenge betrug somit wiederum 2 Gew.-%. Der Differenzdruck nahm von 100 mbar auf ungefähr 300 mbar zu, während sich die Vorheizerauslaßtemperatur von 447 °C auf 438 °C senkte. Gleichzeitig stieg die Konversionsrate (RU) des Rückstandes von 45 auf 62 %.The system was then operated with two different dosing systems. One supplied 1.4% by weight of lignite coke based on the use with a grain size of less than 90 μm, while the second fed 0.6% by weight of lignite coke based on the use with a grain size of more than 150 μm and less than 600 μm fed. The total amount of catalyst was again 2% by weight. The differential pressure increased from 100 mbar to approximately 300 mbar, while the preheater outlet temperature decreased from 447 ° C to 438 ° C. At the same time, the conversion rate (RU) of the residue rose from 45 to 62%.
Die Konversionsrate berechnet sich wie folgt.
- RUEIN/AUS =
- Massenstrom Rückstand 500 °C⁺ in den Eingangs-/Ausgangsströmen
- RU ON / OFF =
- Mass flow residue 500 ° C⁺ in the input / output flows
In einer kontinuierlich betriebenen Hydrieranlage mit drei hintereinandergeschalteten vertikalen Sumpfphasereaktoren ohne Einbauten wurde der Vakuumrückstand eines venezolanischen Schweröls unter Zusatz von 2 Gew.-% Fe₂O₃ mit einer scharfen Kornobergrenze bei 30 µm mit 1,5 m³ Wasserstoff pro kg Rückstand, 6 cm/s Gasgeschwindigkeit und einem Wasserstoffpartialdruck von 150 bar umgesetzt. Zur Erzielung einer Rückstandskonversionsrate (Umsatz) von 90 % wurde eine mittlere Temperatur über die hintereinandergeschalteten Sumpfphasereaktoren von 461 °C eingestellt. Der spezifische Durchsatz betrug 0,5 kg/l . h.In a continuously operated hydrogenation system with three series-connected vertical sump phase reactors without internals, the vacuum residue of a Venezuelan heavy oil with the addition of 2 wt .-% Fe₂O₃ with a sharp grain limit at 30 µm with 1.5 m³ hydrogen per kg residue, 6 cm / s gas velocity and a hydrogen partial pressure of 150 bar. To achieve a residue conversion rate (conversion) of 90%, an average temperature of 461 ° C. was set via the series-connected sump phase reactors. The specific throughput was 0.5 kg / l. H.
Wenn 25 % der eingesetzten Komponente gegen eine Siebfraktion von Fe₂O₃ mit einer Kornverteilung von 90 bis 130 µm ausgetauscht wurden, erhöhte sich der Differenzdruck über die Reaktorhöhe von 70 auf 400 mbar. Bei einer konstant gehaltenen Konversionsrate von 90 % betrug die Reaktortemperatur 455 °C. Bei einer spezifischen Durchsatzleistung von 0,75 kg/h . l wurde bei 455 °C mittlerer Reaktortemperatur eine Konversion von 78 % und bei einer mittleren Reaktortemperatur von 461 °C eine Konversion von 90 % des Rückstandes erreicht.
Mit dem vorgeschlagenen Einsatz zweier hinsichtlich der Korngrößenbereiche unterschiedlicher Mischungen ist eine Leistungssteigerung in den Sumpfphasereaktoren (spezifischer Durchsatz) bei gleichbleibendem Temperaturniveau um 50 % möglich.With the proposed use of two mixtures that differ in grain size range, an increase in performance in the bottom phase reactors (specific throughput) is possible at a constant temperature level of 50%.
