Cross-Reference To Related Application
The content of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2019/090321 is
incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the technical field of heavy oil hydrogenation, in
particular, to a micro-interface strengthening reaction system and method for heavy
oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel.
Background Technology
The heavy oil hydrogenation process mainly employs hydrogenation treatment to
greatly reduce the content of impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, and metals in heavy
oil raw materials, and to hydrogenate non-ideal components such as fused ring
aromatic hydrocarbons, gums, and asphaltenes, so as to increase the ratio of hydrogen
to carbon, reduce the content of residual carbon, and significantly improve the
cracking performance. The fixed-bed heavy oil hydrogenation technique is a heavy oil
deep process technique, wherein the desulfurization, denitrification, demetalization,
etc. of atmospheric or vacuum heavy oil to maximize the acquisition of light products
in a fixed-bed reactor equipped with a specific catalyst under high temperature and
high pressure in the presence of hydrogen is one of the important means of lightening
heavy oil. The fixed-bed heavy oil hydrogenation technique has been used more and
more widely due to advantages of high liquid product yield, good product quality,
strong production flexibility, less waste and waste, environmentally friendly, and high
return on investment.
During the fixed-bed heavy oil hydrogenation process, the reactors are used in the mode of series connection of a plurality of reactors and beds, and the dosage form of the catalyst is optimized according to the original oil properties, reaction conditions and target product requirements to carry out gradation filling according to different physical properties, catalyst activities and various catalyst ratios. Although the fixed-bed heavy oil hydrogenation technical has many advantages, the pressure drop of the reactor is prone to increase in the production process. Industrial operation shows that the increase in reactor pressure drop is one of the important factors restricting the full-load production and long-term operation of the device. In particular, when a plurality of reactors are in series connection, the reactor arranged in front is responsible for more than 70% of the demetallization reaction load, and metal sulfides are deposited on the catalyst bed, so that the pressure drop inevitably increases rapidly in the middle and late stages of operation; and for the subsequent reactors, the pressure drop increases slowly due to the significantly lower load of demetallization.
This resulted in uneven load distribution between the front reactor and the rear reactor,
which affects the operation cycle of the device and the stable operation of the device.
Chinese Patent Publication Number: CN103059979B discloses a fixed-bed
heavy oil hydrogenation method. The method includes: mixing the heavy oil raw
material with hydrogen and passing through the pretreatment section in an upstream
mode for performing pre-hydrogenation reaction under hydrogenation conditions, and
then passing through the hydrodemetalization, hydrodesulfurization and
hydrodenitrogenation reaction sections in sequence. The pretreatment reaction section
is filled with two different specifications of solid substances, and a metal cage holding
the fixed-bed and a particulate catalyst; the particulate catalyst is located in a space
formed by the metal cage.
It can be seen that the method has the following problems:
first, the hydrogen pressure used in the method is too large during operation,
there is a potential safety hazard during operation, a large amount of resources are
consumed, and the process operation cost is high;
second, in order to ensure the activity of the catalyst, the method requires a higher reaction temperature, and the energy consumption of the process is further increased while increasing the reaction temperature in the fixed-bed; third, in the method, only hydrogen is mixed with gasoline, so that hydrogen molecules cannot be fully mixed with gasoline, resulting in a decrease in reaction efficiency.
Summary To this end, the present invention provides a micro-interface strengthening reaction system and method for heavy oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel, so as to overcome the problem of excessively high process energy consumption caused by the inability of hydrogen to fully contact gasoline in the prior art. In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a micro-interface strengthening reaction system for heavy oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel, which includes: a liquid phase feed unit for storing and transporting heavy oil; a gas phase feed unit for storing and transporting hydrogen; at least one micro-interface generator, connected to the liquid phase feed unit and the gas phase feed unit respectively for converting a pressure energy of a gas and/or a kinetic energy of a liquid into a surface energy of a bubble and transfer the surface energy to a hydrogen bubble such that the hydrogen is broken to form micro-bubbles with a diameter greater than or equal to 1 m and less than 1mm to increase a mass transfer area between the heavy oil and the hydrogen and such that the heavy oil is mixed with the microbubbles to form a gas-liquid emulsion to enhance a reaction efficiency between the heavy oil and the hydrogen within a preset pressure range after the hydrogen is broken; a fixed-bed reactor, connected to the micro-interface generator for loading the gas-liquid emulsion and providing a reaction space for the heavy oil and the microbubbles in the gas-liquid emulsion; and a separation tank for gas-liquid separation of a mixture of a ship fuel and a reacted mixed gas in the fixed-bed reactor.

the liquid feed preheater being provided a shunt pipe at an outlet for transporting the
heavy oil to the corresponding micro-interface generator respectively; and
when the liquid phase feed unit is transporting the heavy oil, the feed pump
operates to pump the heavy oil out of the liquid raw material tank and send the heavy
oil to the liquid feed preheater, and the liquid feed preheater heats the heavy oil to the
specified temperature and then transports the gasoline to the micro-interface
generator.
Preferably, the gas phase feed unit includes:
a gas raw material buffer tank, for storing hydrogen;
a compressor, connected to the gas raw material buffer tank for providing power
for the transportation of the hydrogen;

transported by the compressor such that the heavy oil reaches a specified temperature,
the gas feed preheater being provided a shunt pipe at an outlet for transporting the
hydrogen to the corresponding micro-interface generator respectively; and when the gas phase feed unit is transporting hydrogen, the compressor operates to pump the hydrogen from the gas raw material buffer tank and send the hydrogen to the gas feed preheater for preheating, and the gas feed preheater transports the hydrogen to the micro-interface generator so that the micro-interface generator breaks the hydrogen to a specified size after the preheating is completed.
Preferably, the fixed-bed reactor includes:
a reaction tank, a tank body for providing a reaction space for the gas-liquid
emulsion, the reaction tank being provided with a discharge port for outputting a
reacted ship fuel and a mixed gas; and
at least one layer of catalyst bed, fixed at a specified position inside the reaction
tank, the catalyst bed being inside provided with a catalyst for improving the reaction
efficiency of each substance in the gas-liquid emulsion, wherein when the gas-liquid
emulsion is flowing through the catalyst bed, the catalyst in the catalyst bed will
contact the gas-liquid emulsion to improve the reaction efficiency of each substance
in the gas-liquid emulsion.
Preferably, a top end of the separation tank is provided with a gas phase outlet
for transporting the mixed gas, and a bottom end of the separation tank is provided
with a liquid phase outlet for transporting the ship fuel, wherein after the gas-liquid
emulsion is reacted in the fixed-bed reactor, the separation tank transports the reacted
mixture to the separation tank, the ship fuel in the mixture settles to the bottom end of
the separation tank by gravity and is output from the system through the liquid phase
outlet, and the mixed gas in the mixture is output from the system through the gas
phase outlet.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a
micro-interface strengthening reaction method for heavy oil hydrogenation
preparation of ship fuel, including steps of:
step 1: adding a specified amount of heavy oil to the liquid raw material tank and
adding a specified amount of hydrogen to the gas raw material buffer tank before
operating the system; step 2: starting the system after the addition, extracting the heavy oil from the liquid raw material tank through the feed pump, and extracting the hydrogen from the gas raw material buffer tank through the compressor; step 3: flowing the heavy oil through the liquid feed preheater, heating the heavy oil to a specified temperature by the liquid feed preheater, flowing the hydrogen through the gas feed preheater, and heating the hydrogen to a specified temperature by the gas feed preheater; step 4: diverting the heavy oil after preheating, transporting the diverted heavy oil to the corresponding micro-interface generators respectively, diverting the hydrogen after preheating, and transporting the diverted hydrogen to the corresponding micro-interface generators respectively; step 5: controlling a ratio of the heavy oil and the hydrogen received respectively and breaking the hydrogen into micron-sized microbubbles by the micro-interface generator, and mixing the micro-bubbles with the heavy oil to form a gas-liquid emulsion by each of the micro-interface generators after breaking; step 6: transporting the gas-liquid emulsion to the fixed-bed reactor by each of the micro-interface generators after mixing, controlling a pressure and a temperature in the fixed-bed reactor, and flowing the gas-liquid emulsion in a specified direction; step 7: flowing the gas-liquid emulsion through the catalyst bed, controlling an airspeed of the gas-liquid emulsion such that the catalyst arranged in the catalyst bed promotes the reaction of sulfur elements inside the heavy oil in the gas-liquid emulsion with the microbubbles to form the ship fuel and a hydrogen sulfide gas, wherein the hydrogen sulfide gas may form the mixed gas with the hydrogen; and step 8: transporting a mixture formed by the ship fuel and the mixed gas to the separation tank by the fixed-bed reactor after the reaction, wherein the mixture settles in the separation tank, the ship fuel settles in a lower layer of the separation tank and is output from the system through the liquid phase outlet for subsequent processing, and the mixed gas stays in an upper layer of the separator tank after the ship fuel settles and is output from the system through the gas phase outlet for subsequent processing.
Preferably, the fixed-bed reactor in the step 6 has inside a reaction pressure of
1-14MPa and a reaction temperature of 350-430°C.
Preferably, the gas-liquid emulsion in the step 7 has an airspeed of 0.1-0.5h- 1
. Compared with the traditional fixed-bed reactor, the present invention has the
following beneficial effects: the present invention may reduce the pressure during the
reaction by 10-80% while ensuring the efficiency of the reaction by breaking the gas
to form micro-sized micro-bubbles and making the micro-bubbles mix with heavy oil
to form an emulsion to increase the area between the gas and the liquid phase and to
achieve the effect of enhancing mass transfer in a lower preset range; and, the present
invention greatly enhances the mass transfer, so that the gas-liquid ratio can be greatly
reduced, which not only reduces the material consumption of the gas, but also reduces
the energy consumption of the subsequent gas cycle compression; also, the method of
the present invention has low process severity, high production safety, low product
cost per ton, and strong market competitiveness.
In particular, for the system of the present invention, the operating temperature
will be adjusted appropriately according to the active temperature of the catalyst used
when different catalysts are used; therefore, the system of the present invention also
has the advantage of being able to significantly or double the operating pressure and
increase the space velocity (throughput) under different catalyst systems.
Particularly, when the micron-sized bubbles collide with the movement of the
catalyst particles, the bubbles are not easy to coalesce and may basically maintain the
original shape. Thus, the contact area between the gas phase and the liquid phase in
the fixed-bed reactor increases geometrically, and makes the emulsification and
mixing more sufficient and stable, so as to achieve the effect of enhancing mass
transfer and macro-reaction.
Further, the liquid phase feed unit and the gas phase feed unit are provided with a
feed pump and a compressor respectively, so that the feed pump and compressor may
respectively provide power for the transportation of heavy oil and hydrogen when the system is operated such that the heavy oil and hydrogen may be transported to the designated device at a designated rate, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the system. In particular, the liquid phase feed unit and the gas phase feed unit are further provided with a liquid feed preheater and a gas feed preheater, wherein the liquid feed preheater and gas feed preheater may respectively preheat the heavy oil and the hydrogen when the heavy oil and the hydrogen are transported, so that the fixed-bed reactor may not require high-power heating for the heavy oil and the hydrogen during operation, thereby saving the resource consumption of the fixed-bed and reducing the energy consumption of the system. Further, the system is provided with at least one micro-interface generator, so that the system may mix the heavy oil and the hydrogen in different ratios by using a plurality of micro-interface generators for significantly improving the reaction efficiency of each substance in the gas-liquid emulsion when reacting with the catalyst. In particular, the fixed-bed reactor is provided inside with at least one layer of catalyst bed, wherein the reaction rate of the gas-liquid emulsion may be further increased by using a plurality of layers of catalysts to fully contact the gas-liquid emulsion, thereby further enhancing the operating efficiency of the system. Further, the separation tank uses gravity for gas-liquid separation of the reacted mixture without the need for extra separation devices for the separation tank, so as to further reduce the energy consumption of the system. In particular, in the micro-interface strengthening reaction method for heavy oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel, the temperature and pressure in the reaction tank are also restricted, so that the energy consumption of the system is kept to a minimum while ensuring that the gas-liquid emulsion in the reaction tank may react efficiently, thereby further reducing the energy consumption of the system. In particular, in the micro-interface strengthening reaction method for heavy oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel, the space velocity of the catalyst is also controlled to ensure that the various substances in the gas-liquid emulsion may react with the highest efficiency for further improving the operating efficiency of the system.

System Embodiment 4

strengthening reaction system for heavy oil hydrogenation preparation of ship fuel of
the present invention is shown, and the components used in the system are the same as

reaction tank 41, and the discharge port of the reaction tank 41 is arranged at the
bottom of the tank body for making the gas-liquid emulsion output by the
micro-interface generator 3 flow from top to bottom inside the reaction tank 41 by
gravity to reduce the energy consumption of the system.
After the first micro-interface generator 31 and the second micro-interface
generator 32 output the gas-liquid emulsion to the reaction tank 41, the gas-liquid
emulsion is located above the inside of the reaction tank 41 and moves downward
under the action of gravity, contacts with the catalyst in the catalyst bed 42 and starts
to react during the movement, and output to the separation tank 5 through the
discharge port at the bottom of the reaction tank 41 after the reaction. Since the
gas-liquid emulsion is moved downward by gravity, the system in the present
embodiment no longer needs to provide power for the movement of the gas-liquid
emulsion in the reaction tank 41, thereby further reducing the energy consumption of
the system.
