Background
Petroleum resources are non-renewable resources and are the main energy and chemical raw material sources on which human beings rely for survival at present. With the increasing shortage of petroleum resources, the processing proportion of heavy crude oil will be larger and larger, so the selection of heavy oil processing schemes influences the economic benefit and even fate of refineries.
The residua is typically divided into four components: saturates, aromas, gums, and asphaltenes. The stability of the residuum colloid system depends on the composition and structure of the residuum system and changes in external conditions, such as heat treatment temperature and residence time, which affect the phase separation characteristics of the residuum system by changing the composition and structure of the residuum. In the residual oil system, asphaltenes and colloid heavy components form mixed micelles, which are the main factors of coking.
In the hydrogenation reaction process, hydrocracking is an aromatic ring breaking process, the proportion of heavy solvent components for dissolving asphaltene is reduced, and the aromaticity is reduced due to hydrogenation saturation, the asphaltene is separated out due to supersaturation and becomes a precursor of coking, and the asphaltene is separated out at the following high-temperature parts to cause the reduction of the operation performance of the device: the reactor, the interstage knockout drum, the hot low-pressure knockout drum, the hot medium-pressure knockout drum, the atmospheric tower bottom, the vacuum furnace, the vacuum tower bottom and the bottom-reducing heat exchanger, etc., influence the economic benefits of the whole plant or shorten the operation cycle of the device.
The Chevron company VRSH process uses a strong hydrogenation type homogeneous catalyst to improve hydrogenation activity and inhibit coke formation. The EST process of Eni company and the Uniflex technology of UOP company adopt temperature to control reaction conversion rate so as to control coke formation limit, but have the problems of high cost, complex operation and the like.
In the residue hydrocracking process, the decrease of hydrogen partial pressure leads to the increase of precipitates in reaction products (refer to the research of anti-coking technology of the ebullated bed oil plus ammonia cracking device, Wuhan engineering university, Master's academic paper). The hydrogen partial pressure at a certain position in the reactor is equal to the pressure of the reactor multiplied by the hydrogen concentration, and the increase of the hydrogen partial pressure can inhibit the coking reaction and reduce the catalyst deactivation rate on one hand; on the other hand, the removal rate of sulfur, nitrogen and metal can be improved, and meanwhile, the hydrogenation saturation reaction of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon can be promoted. The hydrogen partial pressure can not be continuously increased, and the release of reaction heat and the consumption of ammonia are increased while the hydrogen partial pressure is increased, so that the temperature difference between the outlet and the inlet of the catalyst bed is increased, and the service life and the operation of the catalyst in the reactor are adversely affected.
Microscopically, the hydrogen concentration at certain locations of the hydrogenation reactor is not effectively controlled, resulting in coking during thermal cracking. Meanwhile, the coking speed is increased along with the increase of the reaction temperature and the conversion rate, the conversion rate of products is usually artificially limited for long-period operation, and the hydrogenation conversion rate is limited by coking.
