Description

本発明はナフサ留分や天然ガスコンデンセート等の炭化水素中の水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物を除去する吸収剤およびその除去方法に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an absorbent for removing trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur in hydrocarbons such as naphtha fraction and natural gas condensate, and a method for removing the same.

天然ガスコンデンセートなどの炭化水素には、水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物が含まれることがある。これらのコンデンセート又はこれを蒸留したナフサなどは、エチレン原料、接触改質、水素化処理などに使用されるが、水銀、砒素、硫黄などが含まれていると、腐食を引き起こす、下流の貴金属触媒の被毒となるなど、多くの問題がある。従って、これらの炭化水素から水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物を除去する必要がある。   Hydrocarbons such as natural gas condensate may contain trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic, and sulfur. These condensates or naphtha obtained by distilling these condensates are used for ethylene raw materials, catalytic reforming, hydrotreating, etc., but if they contain mercury, arsenic, sulfur, etc., downstream precious metal catalysts that cause corrosion There are many problems such as being poisoned. Therefore, it is necessary to remove trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur from these hydrocarbons.

炭化水素中の水銀や砒素を除去する各種の吸収剤が提案されている。例えば、モリブデンやコバルト、ニッケルなどの金属化合物を硫化した吸収剤(特許文献1、特許文献2)、活性炭に塩素含有化合物を添着した吸収剤(特許文献3)、酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物をアルミナなどの担体に担持した吸収剤(特許文献4)などがある。   Various absorbents for removing mercury and arsenic in hydrocarbons have been proposed. For example, an absorbent obtained by sulfurizing a metal compound such as molybdenum, cobalt, or nickel (Patent Documents 1 and 2), an absorbent obtained by adding a chlorine-containing compound to activated carbon (Patent Document 3), or a composite oxidation of manganese oxide and iron oxide There is an absorbent (Patent Document 4) in which an object is supported on a carrier such as alumina.

しかしながら、モリブデンやコバルト、ニッケルなどの金属化合物を硫化した吸収剤は、硫化物が炭化水素中に流出する可能性があることのほかに水銀については、除去率が充分でなく、水銀含有量が極微量の場合には吸収性能が極端に低下する問題を有している。また、活性炭に塩素含有化合物を添着した吸収剤も炭化水素中に塩素分の流出する恐れがあること、砒素、硫黄の除去はできないことなどが問題とされる。一方、酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物は水銀、砒素、硫黄など多種の不純物を吸収除去できるが、特に、水銀については、除去の能力が充分ではなく、より大きな吸収能力が求められている。   However, an absorbent that is sulfided with a metal compound such as molybdenum, cobalt, or nickel has an insufficient removal rate for mercury in addition to the possibility of sulfides flowing into hydrocarbons, and the mercury content is low. In the case of a very small amount, there is a problem that the absorption performance is extremely lowered. Further, there are problems that an absorbent in which a chlorine-containing compound is impregnated with activated carbon may cause chlorine to flow out into the hydrocarbon, and that arsenic and sulfur cannot be removed. On the other hand, composite oxides of manganese oxide and iron oxide can absorb and remove various impurities such as mercury, arsenic, and sulfur. In particular, mercury is not sufficiently capable of removing it, and a larger absorption capacity is required. .

従って、本発明の課題は、従来の水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物の吸収剤の問題点を解決し、かつ、効率的に水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物を除去する吸収剤を提供することにある。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the problems of conventional absorbents of trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur, and to provide an absorbent which efficiently removes trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur There is to do.

そこで、本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意検討を行ったところ、酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物を酸化物担体に担持した基材に銀を添加した吸収剤が、水銀、砒素並びに硫黄の除去能力が非常に大きいことを見出した。   Therefore, the present inventors have conducted extensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems. As a result, an absorbent in which silver is added to a base material in which a composite oxide of manganese oxide and iron oxide is supported on an oxide carrier is a mercury. It has been found that the ability to remove arsenic and sulfur is very large.

すなわち、本発明は、

(2) The composition ratio of silver is 0.01 to 5% by weight, iron oxide is 40 to 65% by weight, manganese oxide is 20 to 40% by weight, and the oxide carrier is 10 to 20 % by weight with respect to the entire absorbent. (1) An impurity absorbent comprising mercury, arsenic, and sulfur.

(4) Contacting the absorbent according to any one of (1) to (3) above with a gas containing hydrocarbon, and removing impurities including mercury, arsenic, and sulfur contained in the gas containing hydrocarbon. It is a method to do.

本発明の吸収剤では、水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物の除去性能が大幅に向上することで、長期に運転可能であり、かつ、この吸収剤は硫化物や塩化物を含まないので、炭化水素中に流出する恐れもないため、工業的価値が大きく、公害防止の観点から有用である。   In the absorbent according to the present invention, the removal performance of trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic, sulfur and the like can be improved over a long period of time, and the absorbent does not contain sulfides or chlorides. Since there is no fear of spilling into hydrocarbons, it has great industrial value and is useful from the viewpoint of pollution prevention.

以下に本発明を詳述する。   The present invention is described in detail below.

本発明は酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物を酸化物担体に担持した基材に銀を添加した吸収剤に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an absorbent in which silver is added to a base material in which a composite oxide of manganese oxide and iron oxide is supported on an oxide carrier.

酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物について、特に、制限はないが、金属塩類を水溶液となした後、アルカリ化合物類水溶液との中和反応によって製造することもできる。アルカリ化合物類としてはナトリウム、カリウムの水酸化物、炭酸塩、或いはアンモニア水、等を使用するのが好ましい。中和反応によって得られた沈澱物は水洗した後、濾過、乾燥され、原料とされるが、場合によっては濾過物をそのまま原料として使用することもできる。ここで、複合酸化物は市販のもの、沈澱法によるもの共に単一化合物での使用のみならず、混合物となして使用してもよい。沈殿法による化合物類の場合、混合物としての使用においては化合物を単独で沈澱させたものを混合してもよいが、共沈法によって複数成分を含む沈澱物を得ることによる方が好ましい。   Although there is no restriction | limiting in particular about complex oxide of manganese oxide and iron oxide, After making metal salt into aqueous solution, it can also manufacture by neutralization reaction with alkaline compound aqueous solution. As the alkali compounds, it is preferable to use sodium, potassium hydroxide, carbonate, or aqueous ammonia. The precipitate obtained by the neutralization reaction is washed with water, filtered, dried, and used as a raw material. In some cases, the filtrate can be used as a raw material as it is. Here, the composite oxide may be used not only as a single compound but also as a mixture, both commercially available and precipitated. In the case of compounds by the precipitation method, in the case of use as a mixture, a compound obtained by precipitating the compound alone may be mixed, but it is preferable to obtain a precipitate containing a plurality of components by the coprecipitation method.

担体について、活性成分である酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物や銀を高分散にする、吸収剤の形状を実用に耐えうる強度で保持できるものであれば、特に、制限はないが、アルミナ、シリカ、チタニアなどが使用できる。酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物と物理混合することもできる。また、沈殿により酸化マンガンと酸化鉄を調製する際に、予め、水溶液中に担体成分を分散させて、調製することもできる。   The carrier is not particularly limited as long as it is capable of highly dispersing a composite oxide of manganese oxide and iron oxide, which is an active ingredient, and silver, and capable of maintaining the shape of the absorbent at a strength that can withstand practical use. Silica, titania, etc. can be used. It can also be physically mixed with a complex oxide of manganese oxide and iron oxide. In addition, when preparing manganese oxide and iron oxide by precipitation, the carrier component can be dispersed in an aqueous solution in advance.

添加する銀について、特に、制限はないが、硝酸塩などの水溶性の銀塩を酸化マンガンと酸化鉄及び担体を含んだ基材にソーキング法やポアフィリングなどの方法により含浸することができる。また、含浸する際の形状は、粉体、成形体でもよい。   The silver to be added is not particularly limited, but a water-soluble silver salt such as nitrate can be impregnated into a base material containing manganese oxide, iron oxide and a carrier by a method such as soaking or pore filling. Moreover, the shape at the time of impregnation may be a powder or a molded body.

酸化鉄は、吸収剤全重量に対する含有量として示すと40〜65重量%の範囲であり、その含有量が40重量%未満では水銀等の不純物の除去性能が不充分であり、また、その量が65重量%を超えると性能が低下するだけでなく、吸収剤を成形した際の物理的強度が低下するなどの問題を有する。   Iron oxide is in the range of 40 to 65% by weight when expressed as a content with respect to the total weight of the absorbent, and if the content is less than 40% by weight, the removal performance of impurities such as mercury is insufficient. When the amount exceeds 65% by weight, not only the performance is lowered, but also the physical strength when the absorbent is molded is lowered.

酸化マンガンは、吸収剤全重量に対する含有量が20〜40重量%の範囲であり、その含有量が20重量%未満では水銀等の不純物の除去性能が不充分であり、また、その量が30重量%を超えると性能が低下するだけでなく、吸収剤を成形した際の物理的強度が低下するなどの問題を有する。   Manganese oxide has a content of 20 to 40% by weight with respect to the total weight of the absorbent, and if the content is less than 20% by weight, the removal performance of impurities such as mercury is insufficient, and the amount is 30%. When it exceeds wt%, not only the performance is lowered, but also the physical strength at the time of molding the absorbent is lowered.

酸化物担体は、吸収剤全重量に対する含有量が10〜20重量%の範囲であり、10重量%未満では吸収剤を成形したときの強度が不充分であり、活性成分である酸化マンガンと酸化鉄の複合酸化物や銀の分散程度が不充分となる。また、その量が20重量%を超えると活性成分の量が低下し、水銀等の不純物除去性能も低下する。   The content of the oxide carrier with respect to the total weight of the absorbent is in the range of 10 to 20% by weight. If the content is less than 10% by weight, the strength when the absorbent is molded is insufficient, and manganese oxide as an active ingredient is oxidized. The degree of dispersion of iron complex oxide and silver becomes insufficient. On the other hand, when the amount exceeds 20% by weight, the amount of the active ingredient is lowered and the performance of removing impurities such as mercury is also lowered.

銀は、吸収剤全重量に対する含有量として示すと0.01〜5.0重量%の範囲であり、その含有量が0.01重量%未満では水銀等の不純物の除去性能が不充分であり、またその量が5重量%を超えると一層の吸収性能向上効果が認められなくなるばかりでなく、添加成分は高価なので経済的に好ましくない。   Silver is in the range of 0.01 to 5.0% by weight as a content with respect to the total weight of the absorbent, and if the content is less than 0.01% by weight, the performance of removing impurities such as mercury is insufficient. Further, if the amount exceeds 5% by weight, not only the effect of further improving the absorption performance is not recognized, but also the added components are expensive, which is not economically preferable.

酸化鉄と酸化マンガンと酸化物担体、銀を含む水銀等の不純物吸収剤は、既知の一般的な手段により混合成形して本発明の吸収剤とすることができる。その形状及びサイズは、その使用形態により様々であり、一般的には直径が1〜6mmで長さが3〜20mm程度の円柱状ペレットが好適に用いられるが、種々のサイズの異形状のペレット、錠剤形状、顆粒状及び破砕粒、また噴霧乾燥による微粒子など、特に制限はない。   Impurity absorbers such as iron oxide, manganese oxide, oxide carrier, and silver-containing mercury can be mixed and molded by known general means to form the absorbent of the present invention. The shape and size vary depending on the form of use. In general, cylindrical pellets having a diameter of 1 to 6 mm and a length of about 3 to 20 mm are preferably used. There are no particular restrictions on the shape of tablets, granules, crushed particles, and fine particles by spray drying.

一般的な押出し円柱状ペレットの製造方法であるが、水銀等の不純物吸収剤の粉体をニーダーあるいはマーラー等の混合混練装置で充分に乾式混合した後、混合粉末に対して16〜40重量%、好ましくは25〜30重量%の範囲で水を添加して混練する。水を添加する際には混練物の不均質が生じないように分割投入するのが望ましい。得られた混練物を押出し成型機あるいはペレタイザーで所定の形状のダイスを用いて円柱状ペレットに成型する。これを、100〜500℃、好ましくは250〜400℃の温度で乾燥した後、必要であれば所望の長さに粉砕する。得られた乾燥物を篩分けし、吸収処理に使用する。   This is a general method for producing extruded cylindrical pellets. After sufficiently dry-mixing a powder of an impurity absorbent such as mercury with a mixing and kneading apparatus such as a kneader or Mahler, it is 16 to 40% by weight based on the mixed powder. Preferably, water is added in a range of 25 to 30% by weight and kneaded. When water is added, it is desirable to divide and add so that the kneaded material does not become inhomogeneous. The obtained kneaded product is molded into cylindrical pellets using a die having a predetermined shape by an extrusion molding machine or a pelletizer. After drying this at a temperature of 100 to 500 ° C., preferably 250 to 400 ° C., if necessary, it is pulverized to a desired length. The obtained dried product is sieved and used for absorption treatment.

本発明の吸収剤は、乾式混合工程を省略して湿式混練のみでも製造可能である。この場合、分散し難い粘土などは、混練前に充分分散した状態にしてから添加する必要がある。このためには、予め多量の水に充分分散させる方法が有効である。分散が不完全だと、均一な混合物が得られず、圧壊強度が低下する。   The absorbent of the present invention can be produced by only wet kneading without the dry mixing step. In this case, clay or the like that is difficult to disperse needs to be added after being sufficiently dispersed before kneading. For this purpose, a method of sufficiently dispersing in a large amount of water in advance is effective. If the dispersion is incomplete, a uniform mixture cannot be obtained and the crushing strength is reduced.

得られた吸収剤の比表面積は、およそ90m/g以上であり、好ましくは、120〜250m/g、細孔容積0.1〜0.9ml/g、好ましくは0.2〜0.5ml/gである。 The specific surface area of the obtained absorbent is about 90 m 2 / g or more, preferably 120 to 250 m 2 / g, pore volume 0.1 to 0.9 ml / g, preferably 0.2 to 0.00. 5 ml / g.

本発明による吸収剤を使用して炭化水素中の水銀、砒素、硫黄からなる不純物の除去方法は、不純物を含有する炭化水素を吸収剤に接触させることにより行う。なお、接触方法は任意であるが、特に固定床流通方式が好ましく、この固定床流通方式を採用することにより連続運転が可能となる。   The method for removing impurities consisting of mercury, arsenic and sulfur in hydrocarbons using the absorbent according to the present invention is carried out by bringing hydrocarbons containing impurities into contact with the absorbent. In addition, although a contact method is arbitrary, a fixed bed circulation system is particularly preferable, and continuous operation is possible by adopting this fixed bed circulation system.

この接触処理の際、本発明の吸収剤は、常温から500℃の温度範囲で使用することができ、圧力は、通常、常圧〜50kg/cmの範囲で使用することができる。 At the time of this contact treatment, the absorbent of the present invention can be used in a temperature range from room temperature to 500 ° C., and the pressure can usually be used in the range of normal pressure to 50 kg / cm 2 .

また、本発明の吸収剤はオレフィン、パラフィンからなる炭化水素流で使用することができる。また、炭化水素流の炭素数は、C1からC12で、ガス相もしくは液相で使用することができる。たとえばガス相で使用する場合、ガス時間空間速度(GHSV)が約200〜50,000/hrとなるような流量である。   The absorbent of the present invention can also be used in a hydrocarbon stream consisting of olefins and paraffins. Also, the hydrocarbon stream has carbon numbers from C1 to C12 and can be used in the gas phase or liquid phase. For example, when used in the gas phase, the flow rate is such that the gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) is about 200 to 50,000 / hr.

本発明の吸収剤により除去される炭化水素流中の不純物は、水銀、砒素、鉛、バナジウム、ニッケル、硫黄、金属水素化物等を挙げることができるが、特に水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物に適している。なお、水銀としては、単体水銀、無機水銀、有機水銀の形態として含有し、有機水銀としては、例えば、アルキル水銀等を挙げることができる。砒素は、通常R3−n(式中Rはアルキル、フェニル基等であり、nは0、1、2、3である。)で表わされる水素化物または有機化合物の形態で含有されている。このような砒素化合物として、具体的にはアルシン、モノメチルアルシン、ジメチルアルシン、トリメチルアルシン、トリブチルアルシンのようなアルキルアルシンおよびとりフェニルアルシン等を挙げることができる。硫黄は、硫黄単体、また硫黄化合物としては一般に硫化水素、二酸化硫黄、硫化カルボニル、二硫化炭素、及びこれらの二種又はそれ以上の混合物から成る種類である。 Impurities in the hydrocarbon stream removed by the absorbent of the present invention can include mercury, arsenic, lead, vanadium, nickel, sulfur, metal hydrides, etc., but in particular trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic, sulfur, etc. Suitable for Mercury is contained in the form of elemental mercury, inorganic mercury, or organic mercury, and examples of organic mercury include alkyl mercury. Arsenic is usually R n A s H 3-n ( wherein R is alkyl, phenyl group, n represents a 0,1,2,3.) Contained in a form of a hydride or an organic compound represented by Has been. Specific examples of such arsenic compounds include arsine, monomethylarsine, dimethylarsine, trimethylarsine, alkylarsine such as tributylarsine, and triphenylarsine. Sulfur is a kind consisting of simple sulfur or a sulfur compound generally composed of hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide, and a mixture of two or more thereof.

また、本発明の不純物の除去方法に適用可能な炭化水素中の不純物の含有量は特に制限がなく、広範囲にわたって処理することができ、多量に含まれる不純物も極微量までほぼ完全に除去することができる。   In addition, the content of impurities in hydrocarbons applicable to the impurity removal method of the present invention is not particularly limited and can be treated over a wide range, and impurities contained in large amounts can be almost completely removed to trace amounts. Can do.

本発明によれば、従来の水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物の吸収剤の問題点を解決し、かつ、効率的に水銀、砒素、硫黄などの微量不純物を全て除去する吸収剤を提供することができ、その工業的価値は大きい。また硫化化合物および塩素化合物を使用しないため、公害防止の観点から有用である。   According to the present invention, there is provided an absorbent which solves the problems of conventional absorbents of trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur and efficiently removes all trace impurities such as mercury, arsenic and sulfur. And its industrial value is great. In addition, since sulfur compounds and chlorine compounds are not used, it is useful from the viewpoint of pollution prevention.
