Background technology
Along with the minimizing of world oil reserves, crude oil heaviness trend is day by day obvious, and sulphur, nitrogen, metal equal size increase in the crude oil.In order to take full advantage of limited resources, environmental contamination reduction, hydrogen addition technology becomes very important processing link in the petroleum refining industry, wherein, used hydrogenation catalyst contains group vib hydrogenation active metals molybdenum and/or tungsten usually, with group VIII hydrogenation active metals nickel and/or cobalt, before use, these reactive metals all are present in the catalyst with the form of oxidation state, in the hydrogenation transfer process, though owing to contain sulfide in the feedstock oil, change into sulphided state by reaction, but because under reaction condition, sulfur content is excessively low in the feedstock oil, sulfuration not exclusively causes a part of metallic reducing, makes catalyst activity not reach normal level, therefore, in actual use, before carrying out hydroconversion reactions, need hydrogenation catalyst is carried out presulfurization.
The method of hydrogenation presulfurization is divided into two large classes, i.e. the outer presulfurization method of presulfurization and device in the device.Presulfurization is about to catalyst and packs into and carry out presulfurization behind the hydrogenation plant again in the device.The shortcoming of the method is that cost is high, cure time is long, uses inflammable and poisonous sulfide, to environment, and also also quite strict to the requirement for the treatment of apparatus.For this reason, developed the outer presulfurization method technique of device, first hydrogenation catalyst is combined with vulcanizing agent (its process is carried out outside hydrogenation reactor), only need pass into hydrogen when going into operation or pass into the oil product of hydrogen, heat up subsequently and can finish sulfuration, have simple, efficient, pollution-free and advantage cheaply.
Chinese patent literature CN1262305 discloses a kind of method for pre-sulphuration of hydrogenation catalyst, comprises that (1) with the method for distillation and/or fusing, contacts described catalyst with elementary sulfur, and the temperature of contact enters in the hole of catalyst described elementary sulfur basically; (2) a kind of component, elementary sulfur and auxiliary agent that contains alkene mixed, more than 0.5 hour, wherein, described auxiliary agent is selected from one or more in the vulcanization of rubber organic additive commonly used at the 100-220 ℃ of described mixture of heating; The catalyst that the product impregnation steps (1) of the Containing Sulfur alkene that (3) step (2) is obtained obtains, and under inert atmosphere in 100-300 ℃ of heatable catalyst more than 1 hour.The shortcoming that this technique exists is that (1) uses elementary sulfur as vulcanizing agent, and is large to the harmfulness of human body; (2) technological process and operating procedure are complicated, need with elementary sulfur catalyst to be processed first, with the organic matter that contains sulphur this catalyst are flooded again, and the catalyst behind the dipping also need be heat-treated (>100 ℃) etc.
US4719195 discloses a kind of method for pre-sulphuration of hydrogenation catalyst, vulcanizing agent is added in the catalyst, exist at no hydrogen, temperature is lower than in 275 ℃ the situation, and reactive metal oxides is vulcanized, and catalyst activated being higher than under 275 ℃ the temperature again.Wherein, used vulcanizing agent is that a kind of general formula is the polysulfide of R-S (n)-R ' chemical formula, n is 3~20 in the formula, R and R ' can be identical or different, each group contains 1~150 carbon atom, and each group is comprised of saturated or undersaturated straight or branched type alkyl, aryl, alkaryl and aralkyl.R ' can also be hydrogen atom.The shortcoming of this technique is that the consumption of polysulfide is more, and it is not high to hold sulfur content.
US5139990 then adopts the liquid medium presulfurization hydrogenation catalyst that contains organic sulfur compound, and used organic sulfur compound is: thiocarbamide, thiocyanic acid sodium, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 3,4-dithia adipate, 2,2-dithioglycol.The shortcoming of the method is to make vulcanizing agent with organic sulfur compound, and used vulcanizing agent is more expensive than elemental sulfur, adopts a large amount of expensive organic sulfur compounds to improve the presulfurization cost as vulcanizing agent, is unfavorable for industrial practical application.

X(X is generally 3~9 greater than 2).In catalyst activation process, these materials are different from the temperature range of hydrogen effect, therefore can reduce concentrated heat release, prevent that beds from significantly heating up.But select it to have following shortcoming as vulcanizing agent: (1) needs at least double-steeping just can reach and necessarily holds sulfur content, and last drying must be carried out in inert atmosphere; Emit the harmful substances such as hydrogen sulfide when (2) dry.
