Background
Residuum is the heaviest fraction of petroleum, and the proportion of residuum in petroleum is usually greater than 50%. Solves the problem of light processing of a large amount of residual oil, and is a technical problem which is faced by refineries for improving comprehensive economic benefits. The residuum lightening process mainly adopts two methods of hydrogenation and decarbonization to improve the H/C ratio, wherein the decarbonization technology is represented by a coking scheme. Although coking routes are accepted by oil refining enterprises for a long time, more and more users select hydrogenation routes due to the defects of low liquid yield, poor product quality and the like.
In the processing process of the residual oil, the hydrogenation process can improve the lightening degree of the residual oil on one hand and better improve the product quality on the other hand. Particularly for heavy raw materials with high sulfur, nitrogen and heavy metal content and poor quality, the hydrotreating process is an indispensable processing scheme. Wherein, the fixed bed residuum hydrogenation is still a main trend of residuum hydrogenation technology development in a quite long time due to the advantages of mature technical level, low investment in device construction and the like. The residual oil hydrodesulfurization catalyst is positioned at the rear section of the catalyst system and is mainly used for deep desulfurization and moderate hydroconversion. Typical hydrodesulfurization catalysts generally use alumina as a carrier, tungsten and molybdenum as main active metals, and cobalt and nickel as auxiliary active components. The catalyst taking alumina as the carrier is roasted after being loaded with active metal, and part of active metal and the carrier act to generate spinel structure substances in the roasting process, so that the utilization rate of the active metal is reduced.
CN103657736a discloses an active carbon/alumina composite catalyst carrier, its preparation and application, the method uses 20% -35% hydrochloric acid, and circularly washes in boiling state, the mass ratio of hydrochloric acid and active carbon is (5-20): 1, a step of; oxidizing with 10-50% nitric acid at room temperature, wherein the mass ratio of the oxidant to the active carbon is (20-40): 1, a step of; kneading the activated carbon, the alumina and the auxiliary agent into a cake shape under a kneader; extruding the kneaded cake by a strip extruder to form; and drying the extruded carrier, and roasting in a nitrogen protective atmosphere to prepare the active carbon/alumina composite carrier. The composite carrier prepared by the method can be used as a residual oil hydrodemetallization catalyst carrier for fixed bed residual oil hydrogenation, but the residual oil hydrodemetallization catalyst carrier prepared by adopting active carbon and alumina in a composite way is mentioned in the method, so that the catalyst is prepared, the catalyst prepared by the method still contains alumina, and part of active metal and the carrier act to generate spinel structure substances after the catalyst is roasted, so that the utilization rate of the active metal is reduced.
CN111195525A discloses a residual oil hydrodesulfurization catalyst using active carbon as carrier and its preparation method. The method comprises the following steps: firstly preparing an active carbon carrier, washing active carbon particles to be neutral, then adopting an oven to dry the active carbon particles at 80-120 ℃, and treating the active carbon particles for 3-20 hours at a high temperature of 1800-2000 ℃ under the protection of inert gas, so that the active carbon is fully graphitized to ensure that the hardness of the active carbon is more than 15N/mm. Then acidizing, treating at 300-500 ℃ in the atmosphere of mixed gas containing oxygen and inert gas to obtain an active carbon carrier; and loading active components, preparing an impregnating solution by adopting soluble salts of nickel, molybdenum and phosphorus, impregnating an active carbon carrier in the impregnating solution, drying and roasting to obtain the residual oil hydrodesulfurization catalyst. The catalyst needs to be treated at the temperature of more than 1000 ℃ in the preparation process, and has high energy consumption.
