Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for the selective hydrogenation of dienes, especially of serving in reformate streams (feed streams) on one nickel-containing precipitation catalyst.
  • the invention further relates to a method for the production of high-purity aromatics or aromatic mixtures.
  • the reformate produced by catalytic reforming of naphtha represents a very important source of aromatics for the production of pure aromatics.
  • Essential components of the reformate are aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, xylene and ethylbenzene.
  • the boiling range of the hydrocarbon mixture lies between 60 and 180 ° C. Except for the saturated ones
  • the untreated contain hydrocarbons and aromatic compounds Reformate streams components such as olefins and diolefins.
  • FR-A 2 720 754 discloses that in pyrolysis gasoline Serve selectively on a palladium impregnation catalyst at approx. 150 ° C and can be hydrogenated about 15 bar.
  • This task is accomplished by a process for the selective hydrogenation of Serve resolved in the feed streams containing diene, which is characterized by is that such a diene containing feed current on a nickel-containing Precipitation catalyst at a temperature between 40 and 100 ° C, one Pressure between 3 and 20 bar and a WHSV between 1 and 10 kg / (lxh) is hydrogenated in the presence of free hydrogen.

  • a very effective selective Allow hydrogenation of dienes, being hydrogenated with this catalyst under high reformate load and low pressure and low temperature conditions is carried out. It is with the method according to the invention possible that when operating under low pressure and temperature conditions and high reformate throughput of hydrogen compared to hydrogenated dienes is fed into the hydrogenation reactor in a quantity-controlled manner.
  • the nickel precipitation catalysts used according to the invention are in EP-A 0 672 452. These are catalysts that are in the essentially 65 to 80% nickel, calculated as nickel oxide, 10 to 25% Silicon, calculated as silicon dioxide, 2 to 10% zirconium, calculated as Zirconium oxide and 0 to 10% aluminum, calculated as aluminum oxide, included with the proviso that the sum of the silicon dioxide content and aluminum oxide is at least 15% (percentages in% by weight, based on the total mass of the catalyst).
  • the catalysts used according to the invention preferably contain 70 to 78% nickel, 10 to 20% silicon, 3 to 7% zirconium and 2 to 10% Aluminum.
  • Catalysts are preferably used which only have nickel as catalytic contain active metal. In particular those catalysts that are free of Palladium can be used.

  • catalysts which contain promoters are desired, it is expedient to one of the solutions described soluble metal salts as precursors for add the promoters, co-precipitate these metals and with the so obtained To further process the precipitate.
  • the promoters can also be added as solids in the precipitation solution.
  • the precipitated product is isolated, for example by filtration. In the This is usually followed by a washing step, in particular where appropriate Alkali metal ions and nitrate ions entrained during the precipitation be washed out.
  • the solid thus obtained is then dried, for which depending on the amount of dry goods, for example, a drying cabinet or a spray dryer can be used. Generally is the drying temperature 100 to 200 ° C. Before the next step if desired, the solid can use the above promoters be added.

  • the described nickel-containing precipitation catalysts show also a high selectivity in the hydrogenation of dienes in aromatics rich hydrocarbon mixtures if the process is designed that the catalyst with a low pressure and temperature levels high feed current, especially reformate throughput is loaded, and the amount of hydrogen is regulated in relation to the dienes to be hydrogenated the reactor is fed.
  • the use of the hydrogenation stage according to the invention is particularly suitable in Combination with a downstream extractive distillation of the hydrogenated Product for processing and obtaining the valuable aromatics.
  • the organic used Solvent consists of a high-boiling polar liquid (Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 5th ed., Vol. A3, page 490, publisher Chemistry).
