A kind of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) desulfurizing agent and using method thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) technical field of desulfurization, be specifically related to a kind of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) desulfurizing agent and using method thereof.
Background technology
Methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) (methyltert-butylether, MTBE) it is produce desirable blend component unleaded, high-octane rating, oxygenated gasoline, itself and gasoline have good intermiscibility, not only can improve efficiency of combustion and the capability of antidetonance thereof of gasoline, it is also possible to reduce the discharge of CO and other harmful substances (such as ozone, benzene, butadiene etc.).MTBE can also as paraffin, oil product, spice, alkaloid, resin, the solvent of rubber, organic synthesis reactant, it is also possible to cracking is for high-purity isobutene..Current domestic gasoline generally adds methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) to improve the octane number of gasoline.But environmental protection is newly advised and is required that gasoline need to reach state IV or state V standard, and namely its sulfur content need to less than 50mg/kg or 10mg/kg.The main production of current domestic methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) is to utilize mixing C4 and methanol to carry out etherificate and separation in cation exchange resin is as the catalytic distillation tower of catalyst.Owing in mixing C4, sulfur content is higher, and sulfur is relatively soluble in methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE), cause the sulfide usually containing 50~200mg/kg in methyl tert-butyl ether product, the methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) medium sulphide content content of part manufacturer production is sometime up to 2000mg/kg, and therefore the necessary desulfurization of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) can as desirable gasoline blend component.
Sulfide in methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) is mainly disulphide and a small amount of mercaptan, thioether, thiophenic sulfur, in prior art, desulfurizing agent mainly has organic solvent extracting type, molecular sieve catalytic type and the enrichment dosage form of the sulfur containing metallic element, but organic solvent addition is big, cause that desulphurization cost is high, molecular sieve catalyst cost height and again generating apparatus and complicated operation, most sulfur pregnant solutions contain metallic element, and follow-up hydrogenation and catalytic cracking catalyst can be made poisoning, therefore use and are limited to.
Chinese patent CN102491882 provides the production method of a kind of low sulfur methyl tertiary butyl ether, add extraction during by sulfur methyl tertiary butyl ether rectification again and the heating before rectification being vaporized and take out sulfur solvent, it extracts takes out one or more in Reformed Gasoline, catalytic hydrogenation heavy petrol, solvent naphtha, kerosene, diesel oil, aromatic hydrocarbons, heavy aromatics, butanol, capryl alcohol, furfural or sulfolane of sulfur solvent, and dosage is 1~10% percent by volume of charging methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE).Description only provides furfural as the embodiment taking out sulfur solvent, and all the other embodiments all do not provide specifically takes out sulfur solvent and desulfurized effect.Although the sulfur content of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) can be reduced to below 10mg/kg by this invention, but the addition of its desulfurizing agent is big, account for 1~10% percent by volume of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) raw material, it is converted into mass ratio higher, more than 10000mg/kg~100000mg/kg, increase a rectifying column separating step simultaneously, add energy consumption and equipment, running cost.
Chinese patent CN104370707 discloses a kind of addition sulfur pregnant solution in the catalytic distillation producing methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) separates and/or before separated, its sulfur pregnant solution is that cycloalkyl is plumbous, cycloalkyl zinc, cycloalkyl copper, cycloalkyl nickel, cycloalkyl calcium, sulfonated phthalocyanine cobalt, poly-Cobalt Phthalocyanine, sulfonated phthalocyanine nickel, poly-Nickel Phthalocyanine, copper chloride, copper bromide, Copper diiodide, cobaltous chloride, cobalt sulfide, silver nitrate, Palladous chloride., palladium iodide, palladium sulfate, oxalic acid palladium, one or more in ferrous sulfate and zinc acetate, solvent is initial boiling point hydrocarbon liquid more than 110 DEG C, boiling point organic oxygen-containing compound more than 110 DEG C and one or more in initial boiling point oil product more than 110 DEG C.But its Advantageous Effects obtains by improving sulfur removal technology, and the sulfur pregnant solution of its use all contains heavy metal, and high boiling point high sulfur component containing desulfurizing agent is follow-up needs to carry out hydrotreatment or catalytic cracking processes, heavy metal is poisoning easily caused by follow-up hydrogenation or catalytic cracking catalyst, therefore affects the disposal ability of follow-up hydrogenation or catalytic cracking.
CN105130763A provides the sulfur method of a kind of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE), and from tower lower part, methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) is delivered to desulfurizing tower, and column bottom temperature is 80~110 DEG C, loads Fe-HMS molecular sieve catalyst, peroxide agent H in desulfurizing tower2O2Entering from tower top, tower top temperature is 50~70 DEG C.The MTBE total sulfur content that the method obtains is below 10ppm, has reached state 5 standard, but the method adopts Fe-HMS molecular sieve catalyst and peroxide agent H2O2As desulfurizing agent, regenerating molecular sieve equipment and complicated operation, the method carries out in desulfurizing tower simultaneously, adds equipment and running cost.
Therefore, a kind of methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) desulfurizing agent of research and development, add a small amount of desulfurizing agent and just can effectively reduce methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE) sulfur content merely with existing catalytic distillation device to lower than 10mg/kg, and desulfurizing agent is without metallic element, follow-up hydrogenation will not be caused or catalytic cracking catalyst is poisoning just has great importance.
