A kind of hydrotreating catalyst
The present invention relates to a kind of hydrotreating catalyst.
The hydrotreating catalyst of petroleum products is generally with γ-Al
2O
3Or contain the γ-Al of a small amount of other element (Si, P, R, Ti, F etc.)
2O
3Being carrier, is the hydrogenation activity component with W, the Mo of VI family and Co, the Ni of VIII family.
High-activity hydrogenation catalyst can make the petroleum that contains high-sulfur, nitrogen organic compound under than the demulcent operational condition, makes wherein sulphur, nitrogen compound, changes into corresponding oxide compound and is excluded.Simultaneously also can under the operational condition of harshness, improve treatment capacity, or prolong the work-ing life of catalyzer, to reach the purpose of flexible operating.
Although at present the activity of heavy oil hydrogenating treatment catalyst is quite high, more highly active hydrotreating catalyst is still that we pursue.A highly active hydrotreating catalyst is except that outside the Pass having with the metal species that is supported, amount of metal, and also the character with carrier has direct relation.The distribution of main is metal component on the carrier is wanted evenly.And this distributivity is relevant with carrier surface character.The patent of the seventies has mainly been done a large amount of work aspect support modification, pore structure is reasonable in the hope of preparing, the alumina supporter on big surface.A good carrier of hydrogenating catalyst for heavy oil, its pore volume is preferably in 0.6~1.0ml/g, pore distribution accounts for 80% of total pore volume at least at the pore volume of 4.0~15.0nm, specific surface area preferably>300M
2/ g, on such carrier, by rights with the metal component high dispersing, the catalyzer that makes just can have enough activity.
United States Patent (USP) 4,317,746 have described carrier through after preimpregnation and the vapor portion preimpregnation, soak reactive metal again, can suitably improve the distribution of metal on carrier like this, thereby can improve catalyst activity.United States Patent (USP) 4,446,248; 4,540,483 have described the carrier of three kinds of different pore distributions respectively, adopt ammonium hydroxide aqueous solution preimpregnation, the drying of concentration 20~30w%, use citric acid wetting again, soak metallic solution then, thereby make specific activity without the active high hydrotreating catalyst of ammonia preimpregnation.
The method that provides with above-mentioned patent, support of the catalyst is handled, though certain effect is arranged, but the increase rate to catalyst activity is still big inadequately, and complex process, the cost height, particularly use the method for the ammonium hydroxide aqueous solution preimpregnation carrier of 20~30w%, because ammonia concentration height, high volatility worsens and contaminate environment working conditions.
The objective of the invention is to seek a kind of more efficiently method, support of the catalyst is carried out pre-treatment, active metal component is better disperseed in catalyzer, prepare active higher hydrotreating catalyst, reduce the catalyzer cost of manufacture simultaneously, simplify technology and reduce environmental pollution.Another object of the present invention is to seek a kind of appropriate catalyst carrier.
The present invention is with macropore γ-Al
2O
3Carrier carries out preimpregnation with the lower concentration ammonium hydroxide aqueous solution, makes carrier γ-Al
2O
3Surface hydroxylation, this hydroxylated surface is useful to improving Metal Distribution.γ-Al through the ammonia preimpregnation
2O
3Carrier does not need any processing, and direct impregnation contains the dipping solution of active metal component.Drying, roasting prepare highly active hydrotreating catalyst again.
In the Preparation of catalysts process, press carrier γ-Al
2O
3Water-intake rate and the composition of final catalyzer calculate required metal component.MoO with metering
3, basic nickel carbonate and 85% phosphoric acid and deionized water be mixed and made into steeping fluid.Under room temperature, normal pressure or decompression, flood hydroxylated γ-Al with steeping fluid
2O
3Carrier.The volume ratio of carrier and solution is 0.5~1.0, is preferably 0.7~0.9.Soak time is 0.5~4.5 hour, discharges surplus then and soaks back liquid, and 80~110 ℃ of dryings 6~10 hours, in air, in 400~600 ℃, best 400~550 ℃ of following roastings 3~6 hours made the metal that is immersed on the carrier change into metal oxide.
In the present invention, hydroxylated carrier floods preferably a kind of 10~60g/100ml MoO that contains of steeping fluid with the metal impregnation liquid that contains one or more active ingredients
3, the solution of 2~15g/100ml NiO and 1~10g/100ml P.The concentration of this solution can be decided according to the composition of the metal on the final catalyzer.
The metal constituent element of catalyzer can spray dipping, excessive impregnation method is stated from γ-Al
2O
3On the carrier.With excessive dipping is best.Can reach the high dispersing of metal by metal component and the abundant ion-exchange of surface hydroxyl, thereby improve catalyst activity.
A kind of carrier that is suitable for catalyzer of the present invention is to use CN94107259, and the disclosed macropore alumina supporter in 9 patent Shens is promptly used Al
