Description

Transform HF or the unitary method of sulfuric acid alkylation
The present invention provides HF or the unitary method of sulfuric acid alkylation transformed.
Demand to alkylate oil fuel mediation raw material constantly increases.The alkylate oil of harmonic component of acting as a fuel also has low-steam pressure and does not contain alkene or aromatic essence when having high-octane rating character.
Nearly all alkylate oil all is to make through Trimethylmethane and butylene are reacted in the presence of an acidic catalyst that is fit to.Using maximum catalyzer is HF (hydrofluoric acid) and sulfuric acid.Though very ripe, these methods still have many shortcomings.For HF, must take strict healthy measure and security measures, this needs a large amount of investments.For sulfuric acid, say that from economics point the mass consumption of catalyzer is disadvantageous with cooling need be provided with equipment.
Recently, as HF and sulfuric acid the substituting of catalytic alkylation process, use ionic-liquid catalyst to come the alkylation isoparaffin to cause concern with alkene.
In US7285698 for example, a kind of method of making alkylate oil is disclosed, this method uses compound ion liquid catalyst to make Trimethylmethane and butene reaction.In the method for US7285698, Trimethylmethane and butylene are supplied in the reactor unit, and form alkylate oil through reactant is contacted under alkylation conditions with compound ion liquid.Reactor effluent is separated into hydrocarbon phase and ionic liquid mutually.Ionic liquid is recycled in the reactor unit mutually, handles hydrocarbon phase simultaneously and obtain alkylate oil.
Present alkylation is custom-designed for HF catalyzer or sulfuric acid (also being called SA) catalyzer always, very is not fit to use other catalyzer, for example ionic liquid (also being called IL) catalyzer.At (Z.Liu, R.Zhang, CXu such as for example Liu; R.Xia, Ionic liquid alkylation process produces high-quality gasoline, Oil and Gas Journal; The 104th the volume, the 40th phase, 2006) in mention; In order to use the IL catalyzer, can be retrofited in the sulfuric acid alkylation unit.In Liu etc., propose to increase to be used for the compensator of recycling IL and to revise the separation that IL is strengthened in settling vessel inside.Yet Liu finds that it is best that the performance of the alkylation behind the remodeling does not reach.
Therefore, need transform HF or SA alkylation as IL alkylation improve one's methods in this area.
Have now found that,, can rise to the performance of transformed HF or SA alkylation as the IL alkylation through revising existing alkylation.
Find that also Liu etc. reported does not reach optimal results, part is to cause incomplete separation by hydrocarbon phase in the separator unit (being the settling vessel unit) and catalyzer phase at least.
Because the IL catalyzer is compared with SA or HF and had different character, be different with IL catalyzer and hydrocarbon phase separation with SA or HF and hydrocarbon phase separation.So the design of the settling vessel of HF or SA alkylation can not provide enough separating powers to separate hydrocarbon phase and catalyzer mutually.The result is, catalyzer still is retained in the hydrocarbon phase, and vice versa.So catalyst consumption increases, hydrocarbon phase is also by catalyst contamination in addition.In addition, because of the higher isoparaffin that adopted in the IL alkylation process and the mol ratio of alkene, the hydrocarbon recirculation volume can increase.In common HF and SA alkylation process, the isoparaffin that is adopted and the mol ratio of alkene are 1~10.For the IL alkylation process, the isoparaffin that is adopted and the mol ratio of alkene are preferably greater than 20 or even greater than 100.
Therefore, the present invention also provides the method that HF or sulfuric acid alkylation unit is transformed into the ionic liquid alkylation, and wherein, said HF or sulfuric acid alkylation unit comprise at least:
-reactor unit, said reactor unit are used to make catalyzer to contact with the hydrocarbon reaction thing;
-separator unit, said separator unit are used for reactor effluent is separated into catalyzer phase and the hydrocarbon phase that comprises alkylate oil;

In order to show the validity of using swirler-rather than conventional settling vessel to come the separate reactor elute, use swirler-to separate with the reactor effluent sample of the mixture of ionic-liquid catalyst with product to comprising the hydrocarbon reaction thing.
It is 1: 1.05 hydrocarbon and ionic-liquid catalyst that the reactor effluent sample comprises volume ratio.
Make operating temperature remain on 30 ℃~50 ℃, and make operating pressure remain on 0.1MPa~0.5MPa.The maximum feed rate that the reactor effluent sample gets in the swirler-is 2m 3/ hour.
In test for the first time, the reactor effluent sample conduct of 40 volume % is master's lower the obtaining mutually of density with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil.
The reactor effluent sample of remaining 60 volume % is as with the catalyzer being main higher the obtaining mutually of density.
Based on said be the volume of the lower phase of master's density with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil, said is master's lower the comprising mutually of density with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil:

Through using a separator, the density that with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil is the master lower mutually in, that has reclaimed about 79 volume % is provided at the hydrocarbon in the reactor effluent sample at first.
In the settling vessel unit in downstream, further handling with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil is master's the lower phase time of density, and the unitary volume size of this settling vessel is merely the settling vessel unitary 40% that is used for separating the total reactor elute.
In test for the second time, using two separating steps is to be that the lower phase of master's density is mutually higher with the density that is the master with the catalyzer with the hydrocarbon that contains alkylate oil with the reactor effluent sample separation.The separating resulting that is obtained is following.
