Definitions
- This invention relates to an improved process for the production of hydrocarbons by bromination of methane. More particularly, the invention relates to such a process wherein the feed is natural gas which contains significant amounts of carbon dioxide.
- the present invention provides a process for producing higher hydrocarbons, including both aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons from methane which contains carbon dioxide which comprises : (a) contacting methane which contains carbon dioxide with a halogen, preferably bromine, under process conditions sufficient to produce a monohalomethane, preferably monobromomethane, which contains unreacted carbon dioxide, hydrogen bromide, and, optionally, polyhalomethanes, (b) reacting the monohalomethane in the presence of a coupling catalyst to produce higher hydrocarbons which contain carbon dioxide, and (c) separating carbon dioxide from the higher hydrocarbons .
- a halogen preferably bromine
- the hydrogen bromide is removed from the monohalomethane prior to the coupling reaction. In another embodiment, the hydrogen bromide is removed from the monohalomethane after the coupling reaction.
- the present invention also provides a novel process for separating carbon dioxide from contaminated natural gas by halogenating, preferably brominating, the methane and then separating the carbon dioxide from the halogenated methane.
- Fig. 1 is a flow diagram illustrating one embodiment of the process of the present invention.
- Fig. 2 is a flow diagram illustrating another embodiment of the process of the present invention. Detailed Description of the Invention
- This invention provides a novel process to reactively separate methane from carbon dioxide in high carbon dioxide content natural gas via halogenation, especially bromination, of the contained methane.
- the resultant methylbromides may then be directly converted to value-added hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and/or xylene (BTX) aromatics, C2/C3 lower olefins, hydrocarbon fuel and LPG.
- BTX xylene
- hydrocarbon fuel and LPG.
- higher hydrocarbons means hydrocarbons having 2 or more carbon atoms including, but not limited to, ethylene, propylene, benzene, toluene, and xylenes.
- the present invention provides an improved process for the production of higher hydrocarbons including aromatic compounds and, optionally, ethylene and/or propylene, from methane which contain significant amounts of carbon dioxide.
- the source of the methane is natural gas which contains more than 20 mole%, more preferably more than 10 mole%, carbon dioxide.
- Other alkanes such as ethane, propane, butane, and pentane, may be mixed in with the methane.
- methane containing carbon dioxide is halogenated by reacting it with a halogen, preferably bromine.
- the monohalomethane preferably monobromomethane, which is produced thereby contains unreacted carbon dioxide and byproduct hydrogen bromide and usually excess methane.
- the carbon dioxide may be separated from the monohalomethane.
- the hydrogen bromide may also be separated from the monohalomethane .
- the monohalomethane either containing carbon dioxide and/or hydrogen bromide or being relatively carbon dioxide- and/or hydrogen bromide-free, may be contacted with a suitable coupling catalyst which causes the monohalomethane to react with itself to produce the desired product higher molecular weight hydrocarbons. A small amount of methane may also be produced.
- Any byproduct hydrogen bromide remaining in the higher hydrocarbons after the coupling reaction may be separated from the higher hydrocarbons at this point.
- Any carbon dioxide remaining in the higher hydrocarbons after the coupling reaction may be separated from the higher hydrocarbons at this point.
- Carbon dioxide and methane may be separated together from the higher hydrocarbons. This carbon dioxide stream containing some amount of methane may then be optionally re-injected to sub-surface natural gas reservoirs .
- Any C 2 - 4 alkanes, or any portion thereof, produced in this process may be recycled to the bromination step, cracked in an alkane cracking system to produce ethylene and/or propylene, or hydrotreated to produce LPG.
- carbon dioxide and methane may be separated from the monohalomethane after the halogenation step.
- the byproduct hydrogen bromide may also be separated from the monohalomethane at this point.
- This carbon dioxide stream containing some amount of methane may then be optionally re-injected to sub-surface natural gas reservoirs.
- the monohalomethane together with hydrogen bromide (if it has not been removed) may then be sent to the coupling step as described above.
- a novel method is advanced to separate carbon dioxide from methane and concomitantly convert the methane to higher hydrocarbons. This is achieved by halogenating, preferably brominating, the methane in the feed to halomethane, preferably bromomethane, which is then coupled to produce higher hydrocarbons. Carbon dioxide is an inert in both of these reactions.
- the primary advantages are : 1) Monobromomethane has a boiling point similar to that of butane. Once methane is converted to mono or polybromomethane, separation from carbon dioxide by distillation becomes relatively easy. Similarly, once monobromomethane is coupled to produce the desired product higher hydrocarbons, these components have significantly higher boiling points than carbon dioxide, making the separation of carbon dioxide relatively easy. 2) Bromination, and optionally, the coupling reaction, may be carried out essentially at natural gas incoming (high) pressures. Hence, carbon dioxide-rich gas can be recovered at high pressures for ease of re-injection into sub-surface natural gas reservoirs.
- the monobromomethane can be directly converted into value-added higher hydrocarbons .
- the hydrocarbon feed may be comprised of methane containing carbon dioxide and one or more other low molecular weight alkanes. These other low molecular weight alkanes include ethane and propane, as well as butane and pentane.
- the preferred feed is natural gas which is comprised of methane and often contains smaller amounts of ethane, propane and other hydrocarbons.
- the most preferred feed is methane.
- Carbon dioxide contaminated natural gas may comprise from about 0.5 to about 60% carbon dioxide by mole. However, the process of the present invention is most advantageous when the contaminated natural gas comprises from about 20 to about 50% carbon dioxide by mole.
- the coupling reaction may be carried out such that the production of aromatic hydrocarbons, specifically BTX, is maximized.
- the production of aromatic hydrocarbons may be achieved by the use of a suitable coupling catalyst under suitable operating conditions.
- the coupling reaction may be carried out such that other higher hydrocarbons are produced in significant amounts, i.e., such that the production of lower olefins, specifically ethylene and propylene, is maximized.
- Representative halogens include bromine and chlorine.
- fluorine and iodine may be used but not necessarily with equivalent results. Some of the problems associated with fluorine possibly may be addressed by using dilute streams of fluorine. It is expected that more vigorous reaction conditions will be required for alkyl fluorides to couple and form higher molecular weight hydrocarbons. Similarly, problems associated with iodine (such as the endothermic nature of some iodine reactions) may likely be addressed by carrying out the halogenation and/or coupling reactions at higher temperatures and/or pressures. The use of bromine or chlorine is preferred and the use of bromine is most preferred. While the foregoing and following description may only refer to bromine, bromination and/or bromomethanes, the description is applicable to the use of other halogens and halomethanes as well.
- Bromination of methane containing carbon dioxide may be carried out in an open pipe, a fixed bed reactor, a tube-and-shell reactor or another suitable reactor, preferably at a temperature and pressure where the bromination products and reactants are gases. Fast mixing between bromine and methane is preferred to help prevent over-bromination and coking.
- reaction pressure may be from about 100 to about 6000 kPa and the temperature may be from about 150 to about 600°C, more preferably from about 350 to about 575°C and even more preferably from about 425 to about 550°C. Higher temperatures tend to favor coke formation and lower temperatures require larger reactors. Methane bromination may be initiated using heat or light with thermal means being preferred.
- a halogenation catalyst may also be used.
- the reactor may contain a halogenation catalyst such as a zeolite, amorphous alumino-silicate, acidic zirconia, tungensteastes, solid phosphoric acids, metal oxides, mixed metal oxides, metal halides, mixed metal halides (the metal in such cases being for example nickel, copper, cerium, cobalt, etc.) and/or other catalysts as described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,935,289 and 4,971,664, each of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- Specific catalysts include a metal bromide (for example, sodium bromide, potassium bromide, copper bromide, nickel bromide, magnesium bromide and calcium bromide), a metal oxide (for example, silicon dioxide, zirconium dioxide and aluminum trioxide) or metal (for example, platinum, palladium, ruthenium, iridium, or rhodium) to help generate the desired brominated methane.
- a metal bromide for example, sodium bromide, potassium bromide, copper bromide, nickel bromide, magnesium bromide and calcium bromide
- a metal oxide for example, silicon dioxide, zirconium dioxide and aluminum trioxide
- metal for example, platinum, palladium, ruthenium, iridium, or rhodium
- the bromination reaction product comprises monobromomethane, HBr and also small amounts of dibromomethane and tribromomethane, as well as unreacted carbon dioxide and excess methane.
- the polybromomethanes are separated from the other products for optional recycle to the bromination reactor.
- the other reaction products boil at lower temperatures and may form the light ends stream in a distillation procedure. In one embodiment, the entire light ends stream is sent to the coupling reaction without further separation.
- Carbon dioxide, methane, and hydrogen bromide do not interfere with the coupling reaction of monobromomethane to higher hydrocarbons, and may actually be desirable for product selectivity by lowering the partial pressure of the feed monobromomethane .
- carbon dioxide and methane may be separated by distillation from the lower boiling monobromomethane and hydrogen bromide prior to the coupling reaction. Separation of carbon dioxide and methane from the monobromomethane and from the polybromides may be accomplished by high pressure distillation with the light fraction being the carbon dioxide and residual methane, the middle cut being the monobromomethane, and the heavy cut the polybromides . Hydrogen bromide may be recovered either in the light fraction or the middle fraction. The monobromomethane stream goes to coupling, the carbon dioxide is purged at high pressure from the system as the overhead and the polybromides go to reproportionation for recycle.
- This scheme can be designed to cut and purge large amounts of carbon dioxide at high pressure with the concomitant loss of unreacted methane or to purge only a part of the carbon dioxide allowing the rest to go on with separation after coupling.
- This distillation may have a deliberate feed heat recovery system so the heat may be available for both reactions and the distillation may take place at a lower temperature. Conceivably the feed to distillation may be cooled by heating the feed to the bromination or coupling reaction .
- the HBr may also be removed from the monobromomethane prior to coupling by distillation or water absorption but this is not necessary.
- the presence of large concentrations of the polybrominated species in the feed to the coupling reactor may decrease bromine efficiency and result in an undesirable increase in coke formation.
- a separation step is added after the halogenation reactor in which the monobromomethane is separated from the other bromomethanes .
- the di- and tribromomethane species may be recycled to the bromination reactor.
- One separation method is described in U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2007/02388909, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- the separation is carried out by distillation.
- the di- and tribromomethanes are higher boiling than the monobromomethane, unreacted methane and HBr, which is also made by the bromination reaction:
- the polybromomethanes may be recycled to the halogenation reaction and preferably reproportionated to convert them to monobromomethane.
- the polybromomethanes contain two or more bromine atoms per molecule.
- Reproportionation may be accomplished according to U.S. Published Patent Application 2007/0238909 which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- Reactive reproportionation is accomplished by allowing the methane feedstock and any recycled alkanes to react with the polybrominated methane species from the halogenation reactor, preferably in the substantial absence of molecular halogen. Reproportionation may be carried out in a separate reactor or in a region of the halogenation reactor.
- the bromination and coupling reactions may be carried out in separate reactors or the process may be carried out in an integrated reactor, for example, in a zone reactor as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,525,230 which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- halogenation of methane may occur within one zone of the reactor and may be followed by a coupling step in which the liberated hydrobromic acid may be adsorbed within the material that catalyzes condensation of the halogenated hydrocarbon.
- Hydrocarbon coupling may take place within this zone of the reactor and may yield the product higher molecular weight hydrocarbons including aromatic hydrocarbons. It is preferred that separate reactors be used for bromination and coupling because operating conditions may be optimized for the individual steps and this allows for the possibility of removing polybrominated-methane before the coupling step.
- Coupling of monobromomethane may be carried out in a fixed bed, fluidized bed or other suitable reactor.
- the temperature may range from about 150 to about 600°C, preferably from about 300 to about 550°C, most preferably from about 350 to about 475°C, and the pressure may range from about 10 to about 6000 kPa absolute, preferably about 100 to about 4500 kPa absolute.
- a relatively long residence time favors conversion of reactants to products as well as product selectivity to higher hydrocarbons such as BTX, while a short residence time means higher throughput and possibly improved economics. It is possible to change product selectivity by changing the catalyst, altering the reaction temperature, pressure and/or altering the residence time in the reactor.
- Low molecular weight alkanes may also exit the coupling reactor. These low molecular weight alkanes may be comprised of ethane and propane but may also include methane and a small amount of C 4 _ 5 alkanes and smaller amounts of alkenes. Some of these may be recycled to the bromination reactor but preferably the low molecular weight alkanes may be directed to a cracking step to produce ethylene and/or propylene or may be hydrotreated and liquefied to produce a LPG.
- Preferred coupling catalysts for use in the present invention are described in U.S. Patent Application No. 2007/0238909 and U.S. Patent No. 7,244,867, each of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- a metal-oxygen cataloreactant may also be used to facilitate the coupling reaction.
- the term "metal-oxygen cataloreactant" is used herein to a cataloreactant material containing both metal and oxygen. Such cataloreactants are described in detail in U.S. Published Patent Application Nos. 2005/0038310 and 2005/0171393 which are herein incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- metal-oxygen cataloreactants examples include zeolites, doped zeolites, metal oxides, metal oxide-impregnated zeolites and mixtures thereof.
- dopants include alkaline earth metals, such as calcium, magnesium, manganese and barium and their oxides and/or hydroxides.
- Hydrogen bromide may also be produced along with monobromomethane in the bromination reactor.
- the hydrogen bromide may be carried over to the coupling reactor or, if desired, may be separated before coupling.
- the products of the coupling reaction may include C ⁇ -s hydrocarbons especially BTX, C2-5 alkanes and likely some alkenes, Cg + hydrocarbons and hydrogen bromide.
- the coupling reaction product containing higher hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, methane and hydrogen bromide may be sent to an absorption column wherein the hydrogen bromide may be absorbed in water using a packed column or other contacting device. Input water in the product stream may be contacted either in co-current or countercurrent flow with countercurrent flow preferred for its improved efficiency.
- One method for removing the hydrogen bromide from the higher molecular weight hydrocarbon reaction product is described in U.S. Patent No. 7,244,867 which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- HBr present in the C 2 - 5 alkanes and alkenes stream or the product stream from the bromination reactor may also be removed therefrom by this method.
- the hydrogen bromide is recovered by displacement as a gas from its aqueous solution in the presence of an electrolyte that shares a common ion or an ion that has a higher hydration energy than hydrogen bromide.
- aqueous solutions of metal bromides such as calcium bromide, magnesium bromide, sodium bromide, potassium bromide, etc. may be used as extractive agents.
- catalytic halogen generation is carried out by reacting hydrogen bromide and molecular oxygen over a suitable catalyst.
- the oxygen source may be air, pure oxygen or enriched air.
- a number of materials have been identified as halogen generation catalysts. It is possible to use oxides, halides, and/or oxyhalides of one or more metals, such as magnesium, calcium, barium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, etc.
- the HBr After the HBr is separated from the hydrocarbon products, it may be reacted to produce bromine for recycle to the bromination step. Catalysts and methods for regeneration of the bromine are described in detail in U.S. Published Application
- carbon dioxide and methane may be separated from the remaining product higher hydrocarbons. Separation of carbon dioxide and methane from the higher hydrocarbons after coupling may also be accomplished by distillation as described above. This scheme may increase the volumetric rates through coupling resulting in possibly larger reactors.
- the overhead stream which is rich in carbon dioxide and lean in methane may be optionally re-compressed for subsurface re-injection.
- Heat from the conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons, including heat generated in the generation of bromine, may be used in the process to supply energy required in alkane cracking, heating the feed streams for the bromination, reproportionation and/or coupling reactions and for heat required in any of the fractionation operations.
- At least part of the energy released in the conversion of hydrogen bromide to bromine may be recovered and utilized in steps (a) - (c) or any combination thereof and optionally in upstream (including but not limited to gas feedstock processing) and/or downstream processing (including, but not limited to light olefin and BTX conversion and purification, disproportion reactions, aromatic Cg + hydrocarbon reproportionation reactions, isomerization reactions, and conversion of ethylene and propylene and BTX to downstream products) .
- upstream including but not limited to gas feedstock processing
- downstream processing including, but not limited to light olefin and BTX conversion and purification, disproportion reactions, aromatic Cg + hydrocarbon reproportionation reactions, isomerization reactions, and conversion of ethylene and propylene and BTX to downstream products.
