Description

Use isomerisation of olefin and paraffinic hydrocarbons recirculation to produce the method for phenyl alkanes
Background of invention
The present invention relates generally to the alkylation of the use solid catalyst of phenyl compound and alkene, and more specifically to a kind of method of using the solid alkylation catalyst selectivity to produce specific phenyl alkanes.
Before about three more than ten years, many household laundry washing composition are to be made by branched-alkyl benzene sulfonate (BABS).BABS is by the class alkylbenzene preparation that is called branched-alkyl benzene (BAB).Alkylbenzene (phenyl alkanes) refers to have and is bonded to the aliphatic alkyl on the phenyl and has general formula (m i-alkyl i) iOne big compounds of-n-phenyl alkanes.Aliphatic alkyl is by at general formula (m i-alkyl i) iThe aliphatic alkyl chain that is called as " alkane " in-n-phenyl alkanes is formed.In the aliphatic alkyl chain, the aliphatic alkyl chain is the long linear with the carbon that is bonded on the phenyl.Aliphatic alkyl can also comprise one or more alkyl branches, and each of described alkyl branches all is connected to the aliphatic alkyl chain and at (m i-alkyl i) iIn-n-phenyl alkanes the general formula by corresponding " (m i-alkyl i) i" expression.
The feature description of BAB is in US-A-6, among 187,981 B1.In brief, the primary carbon atom that each aliphatic alkyl of BAB has greater number, the phenyl among the BAB can be connected on any non-primary carbon atom of aliphatic alkyl chain, and one of the carbon of the aliphatic alkyl of BAB is that quaternary carbon has higher possibility.
When the carbon atom on the alkyl chain was connected on the carbon atom of the carbon atom of two other carbon on the alkyl group side chain, alkyl branches and phenyl, resulting alkyl phenyl alkane was called " season alkyl phenyl alkane " or abbreviates " quat " as.Therefore, quat comprises the alkyl phenyl alkane of general formula m-alkyl-m-phenyl alkanes.If quaternary carbon is second carbon atom from the end of alkyl group side chain, then resulting 2-alkyl-2-phenyl alkanes is called " terminal quat ".Any other quaternary carbon along alkyl group side chain is called " inner quat ".
Before 30 years by the household laundry detergent pollution of BABS preparation river and lake.Solved this problem by linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABS) preparing washing agent than the faster degraded of BABS.LABS is by the alkylbenzene preparation that is called linear alkylbenzene (LAB).US-A-6,187,981B1 has described LAB.LAB has the linear aliphatic alkyl that has two primary carbon atoms, and the phenyl among the LAB is typically connected on any secondary carbon(atom) of linear aliphatic alkyl.
Some modified alkylbenzene sulfonates has been determined in research recently, and this paper is called MABS.MABS is different from BABS and compares the efficient with excellence in improved laundry spatter property, hard-surface cleaning and the hard water with the LABS alkylbenzene sulfonate and with LABS on forming, also have biological degradability simultaneously.The alkylbenzene of sulfonation modifying (MAB) will be produced MABS.MAB comprises the phenyl alkanes of the aliphatic alkyl of slight branching and phenyl and has general formula (m i-alkyl i) i-n-phenyl alkanes.MAB has two, three or four primary carbons usually, contains a high proportion of 2-phenyl alkanes, and has the inside quat of low ratio.US-A-6,187,981 B1 disclose a kind of method of producing MAB under the situation of paraffinic hydrocarbons recirculation by isomerization of paraffinic hydrocarbons, paraffin dehydrogenation and alkylation.US-A-5,276,231 have described to prepare the method for LAB and disclose under a kind of situation of the aromatic hydrocarbons by product of removing the paraffin dehydrogenation district in selectivity paraffinic hydrocarbons have been recycled to dehydrogenation zone, make any monoolefine selective hydrogenation in the paraffinic hydrocarbons recycle stream and make diolefine by product selective hydrogenation from dehydrogenation zone.
For producing unique slight branching or removing other alkylation and the adsorption separating method of straight chain alkylbenzene, referring to PCT international open WO 99/05082, WO99/05084,99/05241, WO99/05243 and WO99/07656, this paper is incorporated herein by reference hereby.
Because MABS is better than other alkylbenzene sulfonate, thereby research has the Catalyst And Method that required optionally selectivity is produced MAB to the 2-phenyl alkanes with to inside season phenyl alkanes.
Summary of the invention
The invention discloses a kind of method of producing phenyl alkanes, particularly modified alkylbenzene (MAB) by the alkylating step of paraffin dehydrogenation, isomerisation of olefin and phenyl compound, wherein the paraffinic hydrocarbons that alkylation is flowed out in the thing is recycled to dehydrogenation step.The paraffinic hydrocarbons of recirculation can be straight chain or non-linear paraffins, comprises the paraffinic hydrocarbons of slight branching.Because the paraffinic hydrocarbons of recirculation can be converted into the alkene of slight branching, this method has reclaimed alkylation effectively and has flowed out the paraffinic hydrocarbons in the thing and use it for the useful phenyl alkanes product of production.Therefore, for the paraffinic feedstock of the setting dosage that is fed to this method, this method has improved the productive rate of useful products, avoided simultaneously after paraffin dehydrogenation step and before alkylation step from monoolefine the difficulty of disengaging latch alkane.
When being used for detergent alkylate, this method is produced washing composition, and described washing composition satisfies the requirement for the optionally increasingly stringent of 2-phenyl alkanes selectivity of producing modified alkylbenzene (MAB) and inside season phenyl alkanes.Therefore, the MAB sulfonation is compared with production with linear alkylbenzene sulfonate and had the modification linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (MABS) that cleans validity and biological degradability in improved hard water and/or the cold water.
It is believed that the MAB and the MABS that produce by method disclosed herein are not the products of producing by the method for prior art, the transforming degree that the method for prior art does not make paraffinic hydrocarbons recirculation and the transforming degree of branched paraffin can surpass the transforming degree of (straight chain) paraffinic hydrocarbons just and/or heavy paraffins in dehydrogenation zone may surpass the transforming degree of light paraffins.In this case and since equilibrium-limited the transforming degree of paraffinic hydrocarbons, the dehydrogenation zone effluent can comprise more straight chain and/or light paraffins.Therefore, can improve the concentration of linear paraffins in the recirculation paraffin stream and/or light paraffins.And this can improve the concentration of linear paraffins in the dehydrogenation zone and/or light paraffins and the final transformation efficiency that improves linear paraffins and/or light paraffins and removes the ingress rate that speed equals to enter from those paraffinic hydrocarbonss of paraffinic feedstock and recirculation paraffin stream dehydrogenation zone through dehydrogenation and alkylation subsequently until linear paraffins and/or light paraffins from technology.Therefore, for for conversion of olefines degree given in the alkylation zone, the aliphatic alkyl chain of MAB product of the present invention will keep the carbon number similarity bigger to paraffinic feedstock than the method for prior art.Compare with the present invention, the method for prior art makes the higher carbon number of aliphatic alkyl intrachain carbon number distribution deflection of MAB.When sulfonation, MABS product of the present invention is tending towards keeping the carbon number distribution with the similar aliphatic alkyl chain of paraffinic feedstock.Therefore, for given feed composition, method of the present invention can be produced the specific MAB and the MABS product of the method that is different from prior art, and described product has the aliphatic alkyl chain of specific degree of branching.

Method of the present invention can be divided into dehydrogenation part, isomerization part and alkylation part.The present invention is not limited to any specific flow process for the dehydrogenation part.The dehydrogenation part can mainly adopt US-A-6, and mode disposes described in 187,981 B1.Can use any suitable dehydrogenation catalyst.Catalyzer can be to comprise kernel and the outer field laminar composition that is attached on the kernel, its mesectoderm is included in refractory inorganic oxide and at least a promoter metal that homodisperse on it has at least a platinum family (group VIII (IUPAC8-10)) metal, and at least a properties-correcting agent metal is dispersed on the catalyst composition.Skin is less than the degree of 10 weight % in conjunction with kernel to abrasion loss, based on outer field weight.Described catalyzer is described in US-A-6, in 177,381.Dehydrogenation condition is selected so that cracking and polyolefine by product minimize.
Although under dehydrogenation condition olefin skeletal isomerization may take place, the olefin skeletal isomerization in the dehydrogenation part is not requirement of the present invention, because make isomerisation of olefin in aftermentioned isomerization part.Reducing desorption temperature can make skeletal isomerization minimize.The skeletal isomerization meaning under dehydrogenation condition is the isomerization that increases the primary carbon atom number of paraffinic hydrocarbons or olefin hydrocarbon molecules.From paraffin dehydrogenation part the dehydrogenation product materials flow that contains monoolefine normally on the skeleton corresponding to the unreacted paraffinic hydrocarbons of the paraffinic hydrocarbons that is fed to the dehydrogenation part and the mixture of alkene.The skeletal isomerization meaning of the paraffinic hydrocarbons of minimum and alkene is to be less than 15mol% in the dehydrogenation part, preferably is less than paraffinic hydrocarbons and the olefin skeletal isomerization of 10mol%.Therefore, preferably when most of feeding chain alkane were straight chain (not branching), most of alkene were the alkene of straight chain (not branching).
Straight chain mono-olefins in the dehydrogenation reaction effluent enters the skeletal isomerization district, the primary carbon atom number that this has reduced linearity and has regulated olefin hydrocarbon molecules.The skeletal isomerization of molecule can comprise that aliphatic chain increases by 1 or 2 methyl branch.Because it is identical that the total number of carbon atoms of olefin hydrocarbon molecules keeps, thereby each adds methyl branch and causes aliphatic chain to reduce by a carbon.
The skeletal isomerization step effectively reduces the linearity of dehydrogenation reaction effluent, so that after being used for alkylation, the phenyl alkanes alkylide satisfies primary carbon atom, 2-phenyl alkanes selectivity and the optionally requirement of inner season phenyl alkanes.The skeletal isomerization of raw material olefin can adopt mode well known by persons skilled in the art and any known catalyzer to realize.The catalyzer that is fit to comprises ferrierite, ALPO-31, SAPO-11, SAPO-41, FU-9, NU-10, NU-23, ZSM-12, ZSM-22, ZSM-23, ZSM-35, ZSM-48, ZSM-50, ZSM-57, MeAPO-11, MeAPO-31, MeAPO-41, MeAPSO-11, MeAPSO-31, MeAPSO-41, MeAPSO-46, ELAPO-11, ELAPO-31, ELAPO-41, ELAPSO-11, ELAPSO-31, ELAPSO-41, lomontite, cancrinite, offretite, the stillbite of hydrogen form, the partheite of the mordenite of magnesium or calcium form and magnesium or calcium form.The MeAPSO-31 catalyzer that is fit to comprises MgAPSO-31.Many natural zeolites with initial reduction aperture, for example ferrierite can be converted into the type that is suitable for olefin skeletal isomerization to produce basic hydrogen form by removing the basic metal or the alkaline-earth metal that link to each other with ammonium ion exchange with calcining, as US-A-4,795,623 and US-A-4, instruct in 924,027.But H shape mordenite is not the catalyzer that is suitable for the skeletal isomerization of olefin feedstock.The skeletal isomerization of olefin feedstock is disclosed in US-A-5 with catalyzer and condition, and 510,306; US-A-5,082,956; And US-A-5, in 741,759.The skeletal isomerization condition is included in the condition of the part or all of at least hydrocarbon contact skeleton isomerization catalyst in the liquid phase.Isomerisation temperature is 50-400 ℃ (122-752 ℉).When isomerization catalyst contained VIII (IUPAC 8-10) family metal, isomerisation conditions comprised that the mol ratio of hydrogen/hydrocarbon is greater than 0.01:1.
The isomerization product materials flow that is used to produce MAB contains the monoolefine of slight branching.The monoolefine of slight branching refers to the monoolefine that total carbon atom number is 8-28, wherein three or four carbon atom be that primary carbon atom and remaining carbon atom all are not quaternary carbon atom.The monoolefine of slight branching can have the 8-15 of ading up to carbon atom, preferred 10-15 carbon atom, and more preferably 11-13 carbon atom.The concentration of the monoolefine of the slight branching of isomerization product materials flow is greater than 25mol%.
It is (p that the monoolefine of slight branching generally includes general formula i-alkyl i) iThe aliphatic olefin of-q-alkene, long linear aliphatic series thiazolinyl contains the carbon-to-carbon double bond by " alkene " indication.The monoolefine of slight branching comprises also that one or more and aliphatic alkenylene chain links to each other and by " (p accordingly in the formula i-alkyl i) i" alkyl branches of indication.Two keys are at the carbon number q of aliphatic alkenylene chain and (q+1).The aliphatic series alkenylene chain is numbered from an end along the direction of the carbon atom with two keys that produces lowest number.
The monoolefine of slight branching can be α monoolefine or vinylidene monoolefine, but monoolefine in preferred.As used herein, term " alhpa olefin " refers to formula R-CH=CH 2Alkene.As used herein, term " internal olefin " comprises that two of formula R-CH=CH-R replaces four substituted olefines that three of internal olefin, formula R-C (R)=CH-R replaces internal olefin and formula R-C (R)=C (R)-R.Two replace internal olefin comprises formula R-CH=CH-CH 3The β internal olefin.As used herein, term " vinylidene alkene " refers to formula R-C (R)=CH 2Alkene.In preceding formula, R be with each formula in the identical or different alkyl of other alkyl.In the scope that definition allowed of term " internal olefin ", when the monoolefine of slight branching was interior monoolefine, any two carbon atoms of aliphatic alkenylene chain can have two keys.The monoolefine of the slight branching that is fit to comprises octene, nonene, decene, undecylene, dodecylene, tridecylene, tetradecene, 15 carbenes, cetene, heptadecene, vaccenic acid, 19 carbenes, eicosylene, heneicosene, two dodecylenes, tricosene, tetracosene, ppentacosene, cerotene, cerotene and two vaccenic acids.
The alkyl branches of the monoolefine of usually slight branching is methyl, ethyl and propyl group, preferably the side chain of short and positive structure.Preferably, the monoolefine of slight branching only has an alkyl branches, but also can have two alkyl branches.Monoolefine with slight branching of two alkyl branches or four primary carbon atoms constitute total slight branching monoolefine be less than 40mol%, and preferably be less than 30mol%, the monoolefine of remaining slight branching has an alkyl branches.Monoolefine with slight branching of an alkyl branches or three primary carbon atoms constitute total slight branching monoolefine more than 70mol%.US-A-6,187,981 have described the analytical procedure of the composition of the monoolefine mixture of determining slight branching.
Except the monoolefine of slight branching, other acyclic compound also can contact alkylation catalyst.Isomerization product materials flow or one or more other materials flows can make described acyclic compound contact with catalyzer.Other acyclic compound comprises the alkene and the monoolefine of non-branching (straight chain), comprises the paraffinic hydrocarbons of straight chain or non-straight chain.Can contact the total carbon atom number that each paraffin molecules of alkene of the non-branching (straight chain) of zeolite has is 8-28, preferred 8-15, and more preferably 10-14 carbon atom.The alkene of non-branching can be the α monoolefine, but is preferably interior monoolefine.When in the isomerization product materials flow and the monoolefine of slight branching when existing together, normal olefine content preferably is less than or equals the 75mol% of total monoolefine in the isomerization product materials flow, and more preferably less than the 60mol% of total monoolefine.
Owing to may there be straight chain mono-olefins, the monoolefine molecule in each isomerization product materials flow of most of isomerization product materials flow can on average comprise and be less than 3, or 3-4 primary carbon atom.According to the relative proportion of straight chain with the monoolefine of slight branching, the summation of all monoolefines of isomerization product materials flow or contact zeolite can have 2.25-4 primary carbon atom/monoolefine molecule.
If any, can or not contact the straight chain of zeolite and/or total carbon atom number that each paraffin molecules of non-linear paraffins can have is a 8-28 carbon atom, preferred 8-15 carbon atom, and more preferably 10-14 carbon atom through isomerization product materials flow contact.This type of straight chain and the expectation of non-linear paraffins are not significantly disturbed alkylation step but are used as thinner.But, in alkylation reactor, exist this type of thinner to cause higher process stream volumetric flow rate usually, this needs bigger equipment and more catalyzer and bigger product retrieving arrangement in the alkylated reaction circuit.The isomerization product materials flow does not preferably contain the impurity or the poisonous substance of unacceptable concentration, and described impurity or poisonous substance cause difficulty in alkylation step.Known step is for example removed by distillation and with selective hydrogenation polyolefine is converted into monoolefine and can removes some impurity.When making phenyl compound with the alkene monoalkylation of slight branching, the isomerization product materials flow preferably contains the dipolymer of the alkene of (if any) specific slight branching hardly.
The concentration of monoolefine more highly branched than the monoolefine of slight branching in the isomerization product materials flow is minimized to avoid it to be converted into BAB when the alkylation.For example, the isomerization product materials flow can contain the monoolefine molecule with at least one quaternary carbon atom, and described monoolefine molecule is tending towards forming the phenyl alkanes with quaternary carbon atom when alkylation, described quaternary carbon atom not with the phenyl moiety keyed jointing.Monoolefine with at least two quaternary carbon atoms preferably constitute isomerization product materials flow or contact catalyst all monoolefine summations be less than 10mol%, and more preferably less than 1mol%.
The product of skeletal isomerization step contains the monoolefine of slight branching and can partly provide alkene to alkylation.Therefore, the isomerization product materials flow can be mainly to be that (it is usually at C for unreacted paraffins, straight chain (non-branching) alkene and branching monoolefine 8-C 28In the scope, preferably at C 8-C 15In the scope and more preferably at C 10-C 15In the scope) mixture.The 20-60mol% of total monoolefine is straight chain (non-branching) alkene in the isomerization product materials flow.The alkene of monoalkyl branching is preferably monomethyl alkene in the isomerization product materials flow.In three embodiments of the present invention, the olefin(e) centent of the dialkyl group branching of isomerization product materials flow is the 30mol% that is less than of isomerization product materials flow, 10mol%-20mol% and be less than 10mol%.The isomerization product materials flow can be formed by the product of the part or the skeletal isomerization step of aliquot portion.The aliquot portion of the product of skeletal isomerization step is the part that has basically with the skeletal isomerization product of the product same composition of skeletal isomerization step.
Except isomerisation of olefin, the paraffinic hydrocarbons skeletal isomerization also can take place in the isomerisation of olefin part.By described alkylation part thereafter and be recycled to the dehydrogenation part, they mix with paraffinic hydrocarbons from paraffinic feedstock any non-linear paraffins that obtains in described dehydrogenation part with (straight chain) paraffinic hydrocarbons just in the isomerization product materials flow.In the dehydrogenation part, the non-linear paraffins of these recirculation can or can not dehydrogenation be a monoolefine.These isomerized paraffinic hydrocarbonss or enter the isomerisation of olefin part once more as the alkene of isomerized paraffin conversion then, wherein they can carry out further isomerization.Therefore, the isomerization product materials flow contains the non-straight chain alkene that can repeatedly be produced by dehydrogenation, isomerization and alkylation part by paraffinic hydrocarbons and the mixture of non-straight-chain paraffin.
The monoolefine of isomerization product materials flow mild or moderate branching and phenyl compound reaction.Alkylation is carried out in comprising the alkylation part of alkylation reaction zone and alkylation disengaging zone.The present invention can use any flow process that is used for the alkylation part.The alkylation part can adopt US-A-6 basically, and mode disposes described in 187,981 B1.Can use any suitable alkylation catalyst.Alkylation catalyst comprise have BEA, MOR, MTW and the zeolite structured zeolite of NES.Described zeolite comprises mordenite, ZSM-4, ZSM-12, ZSM-20, offretite, sarcolite, β, NU-87 and gottardiite.
It is believed that alkylation conditions produces the monoolefine of isomerization product materials flow mild or moderate branching or the minimum skeletal isomerization of any other alkene and any paraffinic hydrocarbons.The minimum skeletal isomerization meaning is preferably to be less than 15mol%, and has carried out skeletal isomerization more preferably less than alkene, aliphatic alkyl chain and any reaction intermediate of 10mol%.Therefore, alkylation preferably under the situation of the skeletal isomerization of the monoolefine that does not have slight branching basically, take place and the monoolefine of slight branching in the number of primary carbon atom identical with the primary carbon atom number of each phenyl alkanes molecule.Any extra methyl branch will increase the interior primary carbon atom of phenyl alkanes product of the primary carbon atom in the monoolefine that derives from slight branching a little on the aliphatic alkyl chain of phenyl alkanes product.Finally, although the formation of 1-phenyl alkanes is unconspicuous under alkylation conditions, its generation will reduce the number of primary carbon atom in the phenyl alkanes product a little.
Phenyl compound has been produced (m with the alkylation of the monoolefine of slight branching i-alkyl i) i-n-phenyl alkanes, wherein each phenyl alkanes molecule aliphatic alkyl has two, three or four primary carbon atoms.Each phenyl alkanes molecule aliphatic alkyl can have three primary carbon atoms, more preferably at two end of the chains methyl is arranged all.In this embodiment, monomethyl-phenyl alkanes has been produced in alkylation.But, all (m that produced i-alkyl i) iEach phenyl alkanes molecule of-n-phenyl alkanes needn't all have the primary carbon atom of similar number.0mol%-75mol%, the and (m that produced of preferred 0mol%-40mol% i-alkyl i) iEach phenyl alkanes molecule of-n-phenyl alkanes can have 2 primary carbon atoms.(the m that many and preferred as far as possible 25mol%-100mol% is produced i-alkyl i) iEach phenyl alkanes molecule of-n-phenyl alkanes can have 3 primary carbon atoms.In one embodiment, (the m that 0mol%-40mol% produced i-alkyl i) the i-n-phenyl alkanes can have 4 primary carbon atoms.Therefore, preferred (m-methyl)-n-phenyl alkanes and this paper that only has 1 methyl branch is called monomethyl-phenyl alkanes with it.Each product phenyl alkanes molecule primary, the number of the second month in a season and tertiary carbon atom can (DEPT) measure by high resolving power multipulse nucleus magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum editor with by the undistorted enhancing (distortionless enhancement) of polarization transfer (polarization transfer), as by Bruker Instruments, Inc., Manning Park, Billerica, Massachusetts is described in the instrument specification sheets that is entitled as " High ResolutionMultipulse NMR Spectrum Editing and DEPT " of USA distribution.
Used two kinds of slightly different analyses and method of calculation to measure the selectivity parameter of alkylation in the prior art to 2-phenyl alkanes and inside season phenyl alkanes.US-A-6,111,158 and US-A-6,187,981 use the slightly different optionally method that produces.By US-A-6, after this selectivity that 111,158 method is measured is called the simplification selectivity, and by US-A-6, selectivity this paper that 187,981 method is measured is called selectivity (that is, not having modifier " simplification ").The 2-phenyl alkanes selectivity that the alkylation of the monoolefine of phenyl compound and slight branching has is 40-100, and is preferably 60-100 in another embodiment; And the phenyl alkanes selectivity is for being less than 10 inner season in one embodiment, and preferably is less than 5.
Season, phenyl alkanes can form by making the phenyl compound and the monoolefine alkylation of the slight branching with at least one tertiary carbon atom.According to the position of quaternary carbon atom with respect to the end of aliphatic alkyl chain, the inner or terminal quat of season phenyl alkanes.
Top liquid stream to the small part paraffin column in the alkylation disengaging zone is recycled to the dehydrogenation part.The recycling part of top liquid stream can be the top liquid stream of aliquot portion.This method can make any diolefine selective hydrogenation that exists in the dehydrogenation product materials flow.
The top liquid stream of some paraffin column also can be recycled to the isomerization part, because the top liquid stream of paraffin column may contain monoolefine.But the concentration of monoolefine is less than 0.3 weight % usually in the top liquid stream of paraffin column.
This method alternative is removed any aromatic hydrocarbons by product that exists in the dehydrogenation product materials flow.The aromatic hydrocarbons by product can optionally be removed from isomerization product materials flow, dehydrogenation product materials flow, the top liquid stream that is recycled to dehydrogenation paraffin column partly or selectivity diene hydrogenation product materials flow (if any).
