Method for preparing fatty acid type diesel oil antiwear agent by low-temperature freezing
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of diesel oil antiwear agents, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a fatty acid type diesel oil antiwear agent by low-temperature freezing.
Background
With the implementation of national standard V of diesel oil in China, the sulfur content of the diesel oil is reduced to below 10ppm, and polar components are greatly reduced, so that the lubricity of the oil product is poor. Therefore, improving the lubricity of low-sulfur diesel is one of the key problems in solving the wide-range popularization of low-sulfur diesel. In the prior art, an antiwear agent is usually added into low-sulfur diesel oil, and the antiwear agent can be adsorbed on the surface of metal to form a layer of protective film on the surface of the metal, so that the friction force between the metal is reduced, and the lubricity of the low-sulfur diesel oil is effectively improved.
At present, the diesel oil antiwear agents on the market mainly comprise fatty acid type antiwear agents and fatty acid ester type antiwear agents. The fatty acid type antiwear agent is one kind of antiwear agent with wide application range and is prepared with long chain plant unsaturated fatty acid, such as tall oil fatty acid, soybean oil fatty acid, etc. and through molecular distillation, freezing squeezing, solvent freezing separation, etc. The molecular distillation method is to separate saturated fatty acid and unsaturated fatty acid in crude fatty acid by multi-stage molecular distillation under high vacuum condition, and because the physical properties of each component in the crude fatty acid have small difference, the yield and quality of the antiwear agent product obtained by separation by the molecular distillation method are not fully satisfactory. The freeze-pressing method is to directly freeze the crude fatty acid into paste and then press the paste to obtain unsaturated fatty acid, and the method is difficult to realize continuous production, has low production efficiency, high energy consumption and large labor amount. The solvent freezing separation method is to directly freeze a mixed solution of crude fatty acid and an organic solvent into paste, and then obtain unsaturated fatty acid through centrifugal separation.
Tall oil fatty acid is less in China, and the content of saturated fatty acid in soybean oil fatty acid and the like is higher. In order to remove saturated fatty acids, the fatty acids are conventionally frozen directly to induce crystallization of the saturated fatty acids, and then separated and removed. However, saturated fatty acids tend to directionally precipitate crystals at low temperature and form a three-dimensional network structure, and a large amount of liquid is wrapped in gaps of the network structure, so that solid-liquid separation is very difficult, and a large pressure difference is generally required. Sometimes such a network may extend through a substantial part of the volume occupied by the liquid. When separation is carried out under a large pressure difference, the net structure is gradually destroyed and dispersed into very fine crystal particles, which easily block the filter medium and cause difficulty in separation.
CN106350217A discloses a preparation method of a low cloud point fatty acid type diesel antiwear agent, which comprises the steps of adding poly alpha-olefin accounting for 0.1-1.0% of the mass of industrial unsaturated fatty acid into the industrial unsaturated fatty acid, uniformly stirring, freezing to separate out crystals, filtering, separating and removing the crystals to obtain low cloud point fatty acid filtrate without separating out crystals at low temperature; and adding a proper amount of solvent oil and pour point depressant into the filtrate to obtain the low-cloud-point fatty acid type diesel antiwear agent. The method can easily separate saturated fatty acid crystals from fatty acid solution. However, the polyalphaolefin remains in the low cloud point fatty acid filtrate and cannot be separated.
CN103074158A discloses a method for separating unsaturated fatty acid, which comprises freezing and crystallizing mixed fatty acid containing unsaturated fatty acid at low temperature of 0-minus 5 ℃, filtering and separating; then absorbing the separated liquid product by adopting an oil absorption material at the low temperature of 0 to minus 5 ℃; and finally, centrifuging the product obtained after adsorption at a low temperature of between 0 and-5 ℃ in different rotating speed gradients, and centrifuging to obtain the high-concentration unsaturated fatty acid. However, the method carries out freezing crystallization firstly, saturated fatty acid is easy to directionally separate out crystals at low temperature and form a three-dimensional network structure, gaps of the network structure wrap a large amount of liquid, the separation effect is poor, the filtrate needs to be subjected to a subsequent separation process, and the process is complex.
