Background
The petroleum resources of China are deficient, the external dependence of crude oil exceeds 70%, the coal resources of China are relatively rich, and besides the coal resources are used for power generation, heating and the like, in recent years, the coal chemical industry is rapidly developed in China.
Among them, the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis process has been widely developed in China because of the capability of converting coal into Fischer-Tropsch synthetic oil. The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis oil hydrocarbon structure composition is a very good hydrocarbon resource with paraffin as the main component. High cetane number, low sulfur content diesel components and/or high grade lubricating oils can be produced by hydrocracking or hydroisomerization.
Chinese patent CN200510068181.2 discloses a method for producing high cetane number diesel oil by hydrotreating fischer-tropsch synthetic oil. The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis oil full fraction, hydrogen and a hydrofining catalyst are contacted, a hydrofining reaction stream and a hydrocracking reaction stream are mixed and separated to obtain a middle distillate oil product, naphtha and tail oil, and the tail oil is mixed with the hydrogen and then is circulated to an isomerism cracking reactor to be contacted with the hydroisomerization cracking catalyst. The method can reduce the influence of the water content generated in the reaction process of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis oil on the hydrocracking catalyst through the reverse hydrogenation process design, but the intermediate of the diesel fraction generated in the reaction process in the cracking reactor cannot timely leave the reactor, so that the reaction is excessive, the selectivity of the diesel is poor, and in addition, the low-temperature fluidity of the diesel fraction originally existing in the raw material of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis oil is poor because the diesel fraction is not subjected to the pour point depressing treatment of the hydrocracking reactor.
Chinese patent CN201610365749.5 discloses a processing method of boiling synthetic oil: (1) Mixing Fischer-Tropsch synthesis produced oil and hydrogen to enter a hydrocracking reactor, and reacting under the action of a hydrocracking catalyst, wherein the average pore diameter of the hydrocracking catalyst is in a decreasing trend along the flow direction of a material flow; (2) Separating the hydrogenation effluent in the step (1) into a gas phase and a liquid phase, recycling the gas phase, and feeding the liquid phase into a fractionating tower; (3) Fractionating in a fractionating tower to obtain naphtha, aviation kerosene, diesel oil and tail oil; the tail oil is recycled to the hydrocracking reactor. The method can greatly improve the light oil yield and reduce the freezing point of aviation kerosene and the freezing point of diesel oil by the gradient design of the average pore diameter of the hydrocracking catalyst along the cracking reactor, but the selectivity of the diesel oil is poor.
Chinese patent CN201610617631.7 discloses a process for producing diesel oil and lubricating oil products by hydrocracking of fischer-tropsch synthetic oil, which comprises contacting fischer-tropsch oil with a first hydrocracking catalyst at a hydrogen partial pressure of 6-8MPa, a temperature of 300-390 ℃, a volume space velocity of 0.8-1.2h-1, and a hydrogen oil volume ratio of (600-800): 1, and then the product is cut to obtain a fraction at 350-500 ℃, and then the fraction at 350-500 ℃ is contacted with a second hydrocracking catalyst, wherein the volume space velocity is 0.8-1.2h < -1 >, the hydrogen partial pressure is 6-8MPa, the temperature is 300-390 ℃, and the hydrogen oil volume ratio is (600-800): 1 to obtain the diesel oil with the temperature of 150-370 ℃ and the lubricating oil component with the temperature of more than 370 ℃. The method also has the problem of poor selectivity of diesel oil.
How to improve the processing efficiency of the full-fraction boiling support synthetic oil and give consideration to the diesel oil condensation point and the diesel oil selectivity in the processing process of the full-fraction boiling support synthetic oil are problems which need to be solved by scientific researchers.
