Description

本発明は、低硫黄軽油及び低硫黄軽油の製造方法に関し、詳しくは特定の性状を有する脱硫灯油基材、脱ろう軽油基材及び水素化分解軽油基材を特定量含有してなる軽油であって、硫黄含有量が10質量ppm以下であり、低温流動性が良好な低硫黄軽油及び該低硫黄軽油の製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a low-sulfur gas oil and a method for producing the low-sulfur gas oil, and more particularly to a gas oil containing a specific amount of a desulfurized kerosene base material, a dewaxed gas oil base material and a hydrocracked gas oil base material having specific properties. The present invention also relates to a low sulfur gas oil having a sulfur content of 10 mass ppm or less and excellent low-temperature fluidity, and a method for producing the low sulfur gas oil.

近年、環境低負荷燃料として、低硫黄軽油が要求されており、欧州では既に、硫黄分10質量ppmの軽油が市販されている。
しかしながら、一般に軽油中の硫黄分を水素化処理等によって低減する場合には、同時に芳香族化合物も水素化により低減されるが、燃料油中の芳香族分の減少に伴ってディーゼルエンジンにおける噴射ポンプ内のゴムが収縮し、安定性に問題が生じる可能性がある。
In recent years, low sulfur gas oil has been required as a low environmental load fuel, and gas oil having a sulfur content of 10 mass ppm has already been marketed in Europe.
However, in general, when the sulfur content in light oil is reduced by hydrotreating or the like, aromatic compounds are also reduced by hydrogenation at the same time, but the injection pump in diesel engines is reduced with the decrease in aromatic content in fuel oil. The rubber inside may shrink, causing stability problems.

軽油中の硫黄含有量を低減する方法としては、例えば直留軽油留分を深度脱硫することにより、軽油留分中の硫黄含有量を10質量ppm以下に低減することが可能であるが、深度脱硫した場合には脱硫触媒に与えるダメージが大きく、該脱硫触媒の触媒寿命が大きく低下する。このため、直留軽油留分の脱硫率の増加に伴って、コストが大幅に増大するという問題があった。
また軽油中の硫黄含有量を低減させる方法として、脱硫した直留軽油留分(DGO)と灯油留分をブレンドする方法があるが、灯油の密度がDGOと比較して低いことから、燃料の密度が低下し、出力の低下および燃費が悪化するという問題があった。さらに、脱硫灯油(DK)とDGOにより製造した軽油は低温流動性に問題のある場合があり、高密度で流動点が十分低く、ディーゼルエンジン用として高い出力を与えることのできる脱ろう脱硫軽油基材を含む軽油組成物が提案されているが(例えば特許文献1参照)、硫黄含有量については現状求められているものにまで達していなかった。
As a method for reducing the sulfur content in gas oil, for example, by deep desulfurization of a straight gas oil fraction, it is possible to reduce the sulfur content in the gas oil fraction to 10 mass ppm or less. In the case of desulfurization, damage to the desulfurization catalyst is large, and the catalyst life of the desulfurization catalyst is greatly reduced. For this reason, there has been a problem that the cost is greatly increased as the desulfurization rate of the straight gas oil fraction is increased.
As a method of reducing the sulfur content in gas oil, there is a method of blending a desulfurized straight gas oil fraction (DGO) and a kerosene fraction. However, since the density of kerosene is lower than that of DGO, the fuel There has been a problem that the density is reduced, the output is reduced, and the fuel efficiency is deteriorated. In addition, gas oil produced from desulfurized kerosene (DK) and DGO may have problems with low-temperature fluidity, and has a high density, a sufficiently low pour point, and a dewaxed desulfurized gas oil base that can provide high output for diesel engines. Although a light oil composition containing a material has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1), the sulfur content has not reached the level currently required.

また、軽油中の硫黄含有量を著しく低減した場合には潤滑性能が低下し、燃料噴射ポンプの各部の摩耗が生じることが予測され、これまで軽油に添加剤を加えることにより対処する方法が提案されている(例えば、特許文献2及び3参照)。しかしながら、さらに低硫黄の軽油組成物においては、添加剤の処方のみでは限界があった。   Also, if the sulfur content in light oil is significantly reduced, it is predicted that lubrication performance will deteriorate and wear of each part of the fuel injection pump will occur, and a method to address this by adding additives to light oil has been proposed. (For example, see Patent Documents 2 and 3). However, in low-sulfur gas oil compositions, there is a limit only in the formulation of additives.

本発明は、このような状況下で、硫黄含有量が10質量ppm以下と低環境負荷であり、かつ、密度、芳香族分含有量を従来の軽油と同等に維持することで、ゴムの収縮を生じず、低温流動性が高く、さらに高い潤滑性能をも有する低硫黄軽油及び該低硫黄軽油の製造方法を提供することを目的とするものである。   Under such circumstances, the present invention has a low environmental load such as a sulfur content of 10 mass ppm or less, and maintains a density and an aromatic content equal to those of a conventional light oil, thereby reducing rubber shrinkage. It is an object of the present invention to provide a low-sulfur gas oil having no low-temperature fluidity and high lubricity, and a method for producing the low-sulfur gas oil.
