Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of petrochemical industry, relates to a treatment process of a deactivated hydrogenation catalyst containing a molecular sieve carrier, and particularly relates to a treatment process of an oil-containing deactivated hydrogenation catalyst containing a molecular sieve.
Background
With the aggravation of crude oil heaviness and deterioration and the continuous improvement of the clean standard of the petroleum fuel, the clean fuel and the deep processing technology of the crude oil will be further developed and become the key development direction of the oil refining technology in the world. Hydrocracking technology is a main process for deep processing of heavy oil, and is the only process technology capable of generating clean fuel and high-quality chemical raw materials while converting the raw materials into light weight. The hydrocracking technology has the advantages of strong raw material adaptability, flexible product scheme, high liquid product yield, good product quality and the like, so that the hydrocracking technology is widely applied. Hydrocracking catalysts are gaining increasing attention as their core technology.
The activity of the hydrogenation catalyst containing the molecular sieve is continuously reduced during the use process, and when the activity is reduced to a certain degree, the hydrogenation catalyst must be regenerated to restore the activity or be replaced by a new catalyst. The deactivation mechanism of the hydrogenation catalyst containing the molecular sieve is poisoning, coking and sintering. Poisoning generally refers to poisoning of acid sites, such as chemisorption of basic nitrogen onto acid sites, poisoning the catalyst. Coking is the formation of carbon deposits on the surface of the catalyst, covering the active center, and a large amount of coking causes the blockage of the orifice and prevents reactant molecules from entering the active center in the hole. Sintering can cause structural changes in the catalyst, leading to loss of active centers of the catalyst, manifested by aggregation or crystal enlargement of active metals, collapse of the framework of the molecular sieve, and the like. The deactivated and non-recyclable catalyst becomes a solid waste, which needs to be effectively disposed of.
At present, the treatment of the waste hydrogenation catalyst mainly comprises the processes of pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, biological metallurgy, combination of various metallurgical methods and the like. The problems of overhigh heating temperature, high energy consumption, incapability of separating metal independently and effectively and the like exist in pyrometallurgy. The wet method has the problem that the acid and alkaline treatment liquid is difficult to be recovered and treated. Meanwhile, for example, the deactivated cracking containing molecular sieve usually retains the complete structure of the molecular sieve and increases the difficulty of subsequent treatment, so a method for efficiently treating the hydrogenation catalyst containing the molecular sieve must be researched.
CN200780033953.6 is a process for recovering group VIB metals from spent catalyst by oxidizing one or more group VIB metals into one or more group VIB metal oxides; separating the one or more group VIB metal oxides from the one or more group VIII metals; dissolving the one or more group VIB metal oxides in water to obtain an aqueous solution of the one or more group VIB metal oxides; precipitating the one or more group VIB metal oxides from the aqueous solution by adding alkaline earth metal (group IIa) ions to the aqueous solution; optionally filtering and washing the precipitate, and converting the precipitate by adding an acid to form a solid metal compound comprising one or more group VIB metals. In yet another route, the spent sulfur-containing catalyst is oxidized by calcining with a basic compound, preferably an alkali metal carbonate (e.g., sodium carbonate), at a temperature of at least about 600 c, preferably at least about 800 c to about 1000 c, to form a group VIB alkali metal oxide solid and a group VIII metal sulfide liquid melt, which phase-seperate based on the difference in liquid density of the two liquid phases. And after the melt is cooled and solidified, physically separating the solid VIII group metal sulfide to obtain a solid VIB group alkali metal oxide. The solid group VIB metal oxides are then dissolved in an aqueous alkaline solution to produce an aqueous solution of one or more group VIB metal oxides. In the patent, the first route still has the problem of waste agent oxidizing roasting, and the second route has the problems that high-temperature alkali roasting can seriously corrode a roasting furnace and the density difference separation efficiency is not high.
