Description

本発明は、軽油組成物、特には、排出ガス中の煤、窒素酸化物、未燃焼炭化水素及び一酸化炭素等の環境負荷物質の排出量を低減させることが可能な軽油組成物に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a light oil composition, and more particularly to a light oil composition capable of reducing emissions of environmentally hazardous substances such as soot, nitrogen oxides, unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in exhaust gas. is there.

乗用車に搭載される小型ディーゼルエンジンの排出ガスは窒素酸化物及び煤を含むため、環境問題等の観点から、窒素酸化物吸蔵触媒で排出ガスに含まれる窒素酸化物を一旦吸蔵した後、還元雰囲気下で脱離した窒素酸化物により排出ガス中の未燃焼炭化水素や一酸化炭素を酸化し、更に、下流にフィルターを設けて大気に放出される煤を低減する方法が提案されている。   Since the exhaust gas of a small diesel engine installed in a passenger car contains nitrogen oxides and soot, from the viewpoint of environmental problems, etc., after the nitrogen oxides contained in the exhaust gas are temporarily stored by the nitrogen oxide storage catalyst, the reducing atmosphere A method has been proposed in which unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in exhaust gas are oxidized by nitrogen oxides desorbed below, and further, a filter is provided downstream to reduce soot released to the atmosphere.

一方で、環境負荷物質の排出量削減について燃料の面からも検討されており、例えば、310℃以上の高沸点留分が粒子状物質の生成に大きく影響することから、90%留出温度を低下させることにより粒子状物質の生成を抑制した軽油組成物や、軽質化により特に粒子状物質を構成する溶剤可溶分を減少させた軽油組成物が提案されている(非特許文献1及び2)。また、粒子状物質の生成をエンジンの全負荷範囲で大幅に抑制する為にセタン価向上剤を含有し、90%留出温度を低くしたディーゼルエンジン用燃料油組成物(特許文献1)や、90%留出温度及び二環以上の芳香族含有量を低くしたディーゼルエンジン用燃料油組成物(特許文献2)が提案されている。また、排出ガス中の粒子状物質、窒素酸化物、未燃焼炭化水素といった環境汚染物質の排出量を大幅に低減する為に、硫黄分を低くし、蒸留性状と芳香族含有量が特定の条件を満たすディーゼルエンジン用燃料油組成物(特許文献3)が提案されている。   On the other hand, reduction of emissions of environmentally hazardous substances has been studied from the aspect of fuel. For example, a high boiling point fraction of 310 ° C. or higher greatly affects the generation of particulate matter. There have been proposed light oil compositions in which the generation of particulate substances is suppressed by lowering, and light oil compositions in which the solvent-soluble components constituting the particulate substances are reduced by lightening (Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). ). In addition, a fuel oil composition for diesel engines (Patent Document 1) containing a cetane number improver in order to significantly suppress the generation of particulate matter in the entire load range of the engine and having a 90% lower distillation temperature, A fuel oil composition for a diesel engine with a 90% distillation temperature and a low aromatic content of two or more rings has been proposed (Patent Document 2). In addition, in order to significantly reduce the emission of environmental pollutants such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides and unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas, the sulfur content is lowered and the distillation properties and aromatic content are under certain conditions. A diesel engine fuel oil composition (Patent Document 3) that satisfies the above has been proposed.

渡辺、秋本他、「軽質化軽油の排出ガス低減効果」,石油・石油化学討論会講演要旨集,p.172−173(2000)Watanabe, Akimoto et al., “Emissions reduction effect of lighter diesel oil”, Petroleum and petrochemical debate abstract, p. 172-173 (2000) 武井、藤本他,「ディーゼル排出ガス低減に関する軽油性状の研究」,(社)自動車技術会 学術講演会前刷集,9540426(1995)Takei, Fujimoto et al., “Study on properties of diesel oil for diesel emission reduction”, Automobile Engineering Society Academic Lecture Preprint, 9540426 (1995)

しかしながら、これらの提案は必ずしも軽油の物理性状と化学性状が排出ガス性状に及ぼす影響を分離出来ていない。言い換えれば、軽油を軽質化することにより揮発性の良化と高沸点成分量の低減が同時に達成される為、さらに踏み込んで軽油の揮発性と粘性に代表される物理性状が排出ガス性状に及ぼす影響と、軽油の着火性と燃焼性に代表される化学性状が排出ガス性状に及ぼす影響とをそれぞれ考慮し、これら性状を組み合わせて排出ガス性状を最適化することに着目してはいない。また、軽油を軽質化すると、動粘度の低下により燃料噴霧の貫通力が低下するため、噴射ノズル近傍に燃料混合気の濃い領域が生成し、酸素濃度不足により煤が発生し易くなる。また、軽質化により密度や発熱量が低下して、燃費の悪化を引き起こす。さらには、燃料組成分布によっては、軽質化により芳香族含有量が増加して、煤が発生し易くなる場合もある。   However, these proposals are not necessarily able to separate the influence of light oil physical and chemical properties on exhaust gas properties. In other words, lighter gas oil makes it possible to improve volatility and reduce the amount of high-boiling components at the same time. Therefore, the physical properties represented by the volatility and viscosity of light oil affect exhaust gas properties. Considering the influence and the influence of chemical properties typified by light oil ignitability and combustibility on the exhaust gas properties, there is no focus on optimizing the exhaust gas properties by combining these properties. Further, when the light oil is lightened, the penetration force of the fuel spray is reduced due to a decrease in kinematic viscosity, so that a region with a rich fuel mixture is generated in the vicinity of the injection nozzle, and soot is easily generated due to insufficient oxygen concentration. In addition, the lighter weight causes a decrease in density and calorific value, leading to a deterioration in fuel consumption. Furthermore, depending on the fuel composition distribution, the aromatic content may increase due to lightening, and soot may be easily generated.

また、エンジン出口からの排出ガスは、通常、後処理触媒の酸化触媒で酸化され、更に、煤はディーゼル・パーティキュレート・フィルター(DPF)で除去されるが、この場合、NOxの量は触媒前後で変化しないことから、エンジン出口では、NOxの排出量を低く維持することが必要である。また、煤の排出量が多いと、DPFへの煤の堆積量が増加して、再生頻度が増加することから、エンジン出口では、煤の排出量も低いことが望ましい。しかしながら、前述のNOx排出量と煤排出量は、一般にトレードオフの関係にあり、一方の排出量を低減すると、もう一方の排出量が増加してしまう。   In addition, the exhaust gas from the engine outlet is usually oxidized by the oxidation catalyst of the aftertreatment catalyst, and the soot is removed by the diesel particulate filter (DPF). In this case, the amount of NOx is around the catalyst. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the NOx emission amount low at the engine outlet. In addition, if the amount of soot discharged is large, the amount of soot deposited on the DPF increases and the regeneration frequency increases. Therefore, it is desirable that the amount of soot discharged is low at the engine outlet. However, the aforementioned NOx emission amount and soot emission amount are generally in a trade-off relationship, and if one emission amount is reduced, the other emission amount is increased.

そこで、本発明の目的は、上記従来技術の問題を解決し、軽油の揮発性と粘性に代表される物理性状と、軽油の着火性と燃焼性に代表される化学性状とを適切に組み合わせることで、NOx排出量を低く維持しつつ、該NOx排出量とトレードオフの関係にある煤排出量を少なくすることが可能で、ディーゼルエンジンからの排出ガス性状を改善することが可能な軽油組成物を提供することにある。   Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art and appropriately combine physical properties typified by light oil volatility and viscosity with chemical properties typified by light oil ignitability and combustibility. Thus, while maintaining the NOx emission amount low, it is possible to reduce the soot emission amount that is in a trade-off relationship with the NOx emission amount, and to improve the exhaust gas properties from the diesel engine. Is to provide.

本発明者らは、軽油の揮発性と粘性に代表される物理性状が排出ガス性状に及ぼす影響と、軽油の着火性と燃焼性に代表される化学性状が排出ガス性状に及ぼす影響とをそれぞれ分離して鋭意研究を進めた結果、軽油の揮発性指標の90%留出温度と粘性指標の動粘度を特定範囲にした上、軽油の着火性指標のセタン価を特定範囲にし、燃焼性指標の燃料組成を規定することにより、排出ガス性状を最適化できることを見出し、本発明を完成させるに至った。すなわち、本発明は次の通りである。   The inventors of the present invention described the effects of the physical properties typified by the volatility and viscosity of light oil on the exhaust gas properties and the effects of the chemical properties typified by the ignitability and combustibility of light oil on the exhaust gas properties, respectively. As a result of diligent research, the 90% distillation temperature of the gas oil volatility index and the kinematic viscosity of the viscosity index were set in a specified range, and the cetane number of the light oil ignitability index was set in a specified range, and the flammability index By defining the fuel composition, it was found that the exhaust gas properties can be optimized, and the present invention has been completed.

It can be obtained by mixing and hydrodesulfurizing and mixing appropriately after hydrodesulfurization, or when processing raw material oils rich in aromatics, the sulfur content and aromatic content of the product should be reduced. In order to make it within a predetermined range, it is effective to increase the reaction temperature and hydrogen partial pressure and to increase the hydrogen / oil ratio. In addition, since the raw material oil containing a lot of aromatics contains a lot of difficult desulfurization components, it is preferable to use a catalyst that selectively removes sulfur in hydrodesulfurization. Hydrodesulfurization uses a hydrogenation catalyst containing one or more of Co, Mo and Ni, and optionally carrying P, with a reaction temperature of 270 to 380 ° C., preferably 295 to 360 ° C., a reaction pressure of 2.5.
