Description

Method for producing gasoline and base oil by catalyst grading technology

Technical Field

The invention relates to a method for treating wax oil components, in particular to a method for producing high-quality gasoline, high-quality lubricating oil base oil and liquid-phase products as by-products by processing wax oil raw materials through a catalyst grading technology.

Background

Gasoline is one of the most used light petroleum products, is an important fuel of an engine, can be obtained by different units for petroleum refining, and in the process of crude oil processing, units such as distillation, catalytic cracking, thermal cracking, hydrocracking, catalytic reforming and the like all produce gasoline components, but have different octane numbers, such as the octane number of straight-run gasoline is low, and the gasoline cannot be independently used as engine fuel; in addition, the sulfur content of impurities is different, so that the gasoline component with high sulfur content also needs to be desulfurized and refined, and finally, the gasoline component is blended, and if necessary, a high-octane component needs to be added, so that the gasoline product meeting the national standard is finally obtained.

At present, the main ways for producing gasoline in China are catalytic cracking and catalytic reforming. The catalytic cracking is the most important secondary processing process in the petroleum refining industry at present, and is also the core process for the heavy oil lightening, along with the increasing heavy oil of the world, the processing capacity of an FCC device is continuously improved, various heavy oils are used as raw materials, the main product, namely the high-octane gasoline, is obtained through catalytic cracking reaction, but because the emission standard of the gasoline at present is improved, the production of the catalytic cracking gasoline requires the pre-refining of the raw materials and the post-refining of the product; the catalytic reforming is a process for rearranging the molecular structure of hydrocarbons in gasoline fractions into a new molecular structure, is an important means for improving the quality of gasoline and producing petrochemical raw materials, is an essential process for producing gasoline at present, and has high requirements on the source and cleanliness of the raw materials due to the reaction process and the characteristic requirements of catalysts.

The hydrocracking technology has the advantages of strong raw material adaptability, flexible product scheme, high liquid product yield, good product quality and the like, and is favored by oil refining enterprises of various countries in the world for many years. Hydrocracking, which is one of the main processes for deep processing of heavy oil, can also indirectly produce gasoline components, and due to the characteristics of the processes, the produced heavy naphtha has extremely low impurity content and low octane number, which is exactly opposite to that of catalytic gasoline, and the heavy naphtha is used as a feed of a catalytic reforming unit to produce high-octane gasoline after molecular structure rearrangement. In addition, the hydrocracking technology can also produce high-quality and high-viscosity-index lubricating base oil through the adjustment of a catalyst and a process technology, so that the lubricating base oil is used as a feed for a downstream device and is one of main production units of lubricating oil raw materials, and the lubricating oil is not limited by the regulation and control of macroscopic economic price in principle due to the particularity of production modes and market demands, is one of high-quality products which are created and increased by various large oil refining enterprises, and is favored and valued by the enterprises.

CN104611029A discloses a catalytic cracking diesel oil hydro-conversion method, wherein catalytic diesel oil and hydrogen gas are mixed and then enter a hydrofining reactor for hydrofining reaction, and then enter a hydrocracking reactor for hydrocracking reaction. Although gasoline with high octane number is produced through a hydro-conversion process, catalytic cracking diesel oil is still used as a raw material essentially, and the range of the raw material for producing high-quality gasoline is not expanded, so that the method has certain limitation.

CN101724454A introduces a hydrocracking method for producing high-octane gasoline, raw oil and hydrogen are mixed and then enter a reactor to be sequentially subjected to hydrofining and hydrocracking reactions, although the method has the characteristics of capability of processing more inferior raw materials, long operation period of a catalyst, good quality of a hydrocracking product and the like. But the used raw material is still the diesel oil component, and heavy oil is not used for directly producing high-octane gasoline.

CN103184073A introduces a hydrocracking method for producing high-octane gasoline blending components, wherein raw oil is subjected to controlled hydrofining and hydro-conversion reaction, although the target product can be high-octane gasoline or blending components through process control, the selection range of the raw material is single, the production cannot be carried out by utilizing heavy oil products, and meanwhile, the catalyst is not effectively improved aiming at the process.
