Hydrodewaxing method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a hydrodewaxing method, in particular to a hydrodewaxing method for improving the cracking selectivity of normal paraffin and increasing the yield of diesel oil.
Background
The China is very long in the three northeast, northwest and west regions and the Tibet, etc. in winter, the demand for the diesel oil with good low-temperature fluidity is more vigorous in cold seasons, and the low-freezing point diesel oil (-20) is produced#、-35#) The efficiency of the method is remarkable, oil refining enterprises hope to increase the yield of low-freezing diesel oil products, and the economic efficiency of the enterprises is further increased.The diesel oil yield is strictly limited by the condensation point of distillate oil, and the contradiction between the diesel oil yield and the low-temperature fluidity of the diesel oil is more prominent in northern cold regions, so that the method becomes a key problem for limiting the economic benefit of northern oil refining enterprises.
In view of the reason that long-chain normal paraffin and aromatic hydrocarbon cause poor low-temperature fluidity of oil products, the improvement of the low-temperature fluidity of the oil products requires hydrogenation to destroy the structures of benzene rings and cyclane, and the oil products have cracking and isomerization performance of the long-chain paraffin, because the content of the aromatic hydrocarbon and the cyclane in diesel oil and jet fuel is not high, the over-cracking can cause the component of the oil products to be transferred to light components, and the conversion of the long-chain paraffin into the isoparaffin with better low-temperature fluidity through isomerization becomes the key for improving the low-temperature fluidity of the oil.
At present, the hydrodewaxing catalyst used usually adopts shape-selective molecular sieve and alumina binder as carriers, and adds a small amount (not more than 5% of the weight of the catalyst) of metal with dehydrogenation activity. Wherein the shape-selective molecular sieve is ZSM-5 molecular sieve. The size of a straight cylindrical pore passage of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 0.51 nm multiplied by 0.56nm, and the size of a zigzag pore passage is 0.54nm multiplied by 0.56 nm.
CN85100324A discloses a distillate oil hydrodewaxing catalyst and a preparation method thereof, wherein the catalyst is prepared by taking ZSM-5 zeolite molecular sieve directly synthesized by an amine-free method as a matrix, performing acid treatment, adding a binder, kneading and forming, adding an active metal component, and performing steam heat treatment. Wherein the binder is preferably small-pore alumina, the active metal component is preferably nickel, and the addition method can be impregnation, kneading and ion exchange. CN101143333A proposes a preparation method of a hydrodewaxing catalyst with certain hydrorefining function. The method makes full use of the binder component in the hydrodewaxing catalyst and takes the binder component as a carrier of the catalyst with hydrofining performance, thereby obviously improving the hydrofining performance of the catalyst. CN201010514426.0 proposes that a nano ZSM-5 molecular sieve, macroporous alumina and a binder are kneaded and formed into a carrier, then the carrier is impregnated with a load active metal, and finally the catalyst is obtained through hydrothermal treatment. CN201010514141.7 discloses a diesel hydrodewaxing method. The method comprises the following steps: the wax-containing diesel raw material sequentially passes through a hydrodewaxing catalyst bed layer and a hydrofining catalyst bed layer which are alternately and serially filled, and finally the obtained hydrofining product is separated to obtain a diesel product.
The above patent improves the product yield and product quality of the hydrodewaxing device by improving the catalyst or adjusting the process, but the diesel oil yield still needs to be further improved.
