Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of producing a transportation fuel or blending stock therefor derived from the products of a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. More specifically, the invention relates to a process in which the oxygenates are converted in a selective low-cost process. The invention further relates to a transportation fuel or blending stock therefor, having a high cetane number, high lubricity, high stability, and having substantially no oxygenates, sulfur or other hetero-atom components.
- Synthetic transportation fuels are increasingly in demand because they contain no sulfur or aromatics and typically have high cetane numbers.
- the Fischer-Tropsch process used to make synthetic transportation fuels results in a syncrude product containing oxygenates ("FT oxygenates").
- the FT oxygenates typically include primary and internal alcohols, which constitute the major portion of the total FT oxygenate, as well as aldehydes, ketones and acids.
- the presence of FT oxygenates presents certain problems with processing the syncrude, including a negative impact on hydroprocessing catalysts which necessitates an increase in the severity of hydroprocessing conditions. With increasing severity of hydroprocessing, yield loss increases.
- hydroprocessing as used herein means hydrocracking, hydroisomerization, hydrodewaxing, or a combination of two or more of these processes.
- the FT oxygenates may be removed through hydrotreatment.
- hydrotreatment requires significant additional capital equipment expenditures.
- the FT oxygenate content is generally higher in the lower boiling range distillation cuts of the Fischer-Tropsch product and declines precipitously above a 600°F cut point.
- One method of avoiding the negative impact of the FT oxygenates on the hydrocracking catalysts is to bypass the lower boiling range distillation cuts around the hydrocracking unit.
- the lower boiling range distillation cuts, including any FT oxygenate content therein, are then re-blended with the hydrocracked higher boiling range distillation cut to form the product fuel.
- Hydroprocessing utilizing non-noble metals, such as cobalt catalysts, promoted with rhenium, zirconium, hafnium, cerium or uranium, to form a mixture of paraffins and olefins has also been used. As mentioned above, however, hydroprocessing at severe conditions raises the costs of processing and the resulting product and further results in yield loss.
- non-noble metals such as cobalt catalysts, promoted with rhenium, zirconium, hafnium, cerium or uranium
- the invention meets these and other needs by providing a transportation fuel or blending stock for a transportation fuel which contains substantially no FT oxygenates, sulfur or other hetero-atom components.
- the invention further provides a method of producing a transportation fuel or blending stock which eliminates oxygenates, improves lubricity and lower temperature properties, but which is economical and does not cause any significant yield loss or which results in significantly less yield loss than known hydroprocessing and hydrotreatment methods.
- a synthetic fuel comprising a hydrocarbon mixture having a carbon number range from about C 7 to about C 24 wherein the hydrocarbon mixture comprises substantially no FT oxygenates, at least about 5wt% n-paraffins and between about 11% and about 20% olefins by weight, and between about 2 wt% and about 90 wt% branched paraffins wherein less than 50% of all branch groups are monomethyl and wherein the ratio of terminal monomethyl branching to internal monomethyl branching is at least about 1:1.5.
- a process for producing a synthetic fuel comprising the steps of: (a) producing a light Fischer-Tropsch liquid; (b) dehydrating all or a part of the FT oxygenates in the LFTL while retaining the olefin content in the LFTL; (c) recovering a dehydrated product; (d) separating the aqueous and organic phases of the dehydrated product; and (e) blending the organic phase of the dehydrated product into a transportation fuel.

- C x + refers to a stream wherein the hydrocarbons are predominantly those having a hydrocarbon number of x or greater but which may also contain impurity levels of hydrocarbons having a carbon number of less than x.
- C 15+ means hydrocarbons having a carbon number of 15 or greater but which may contain impurity levels of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers of less than 15.
- C x -C y where x and y are numbers greater than zero, refers to a mixture of hydrocarbon compounds wherein the predominant component hydrocarbons, collectively about 90% or greater by weight, have carbon numbers between x and y inclusive.
- C 5 - C 9 hydrocarbons means a mixture of hydrocarbon compounds which is predominantly comprised of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers between 5 and 9 inclusive, but may also include impurity level quantities of hydrocarbons having other carbon numbers.
- high lubricity means having a wear scar of average diameter of about ⁇ 0.46 mm at 60°C tested in accordance with ASTM Standard D-6079-02 entitled “Standard Test Method for Evaluating Lubricity of Diesel Fuels by the High-Frequency Reciprocating Rig.”
- high stability and “high oxidative stability” mean having a total solids ⁇ 1.5 mg/100 ml tested in accordance with ASTM Standard D-22-74-01a entitled “Standard Test Method for Oxidation Stability of Distillate Fuel Oil (Accelerated Method).” Note that these methods are being applied herein to the analysis and characterization of synthetic products although the standards refer expressly to petroleum derived products.
- the Fischer-Tropsch process includes processing of synthesis gas to produce a hydrocarbon stream via the Fischer-Tropsch reaction, recovery of the Fischer-Tropsch product, catalytic dehydration of all or part of the Fischer-Tropsch product, and recovery of the hydrocarbons by phase separation.
- the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis are useful in the invention described in inter alia, in U.S. 4,973,453; 6,172,124; 6,169,120; and 6,130,259; the disclosures of which are all incorporated herein by reference.
- the Fischer-Tropsch conversion system for converting hydrocarbon gases to liquid or solid hydrocarbon products using autothermal reforming includes a synthesis gas unit, which includes a synthesis gas reactor in the form of an autothermal reforming reactor (ATR) containing a reforming catalyst, such as a nickel-containing catalyst.
- a stream of light hydrocarbons to be converted which may include natural gas, is introduced into the reactor along with oxygen (O 2 ).
- the oxygen may be provided from compressed air or other compressed oxygen-containing gas, or may be a pure oxygen stream.
- the ATR reaction may be adiabatic, with no heat being added or removed from the reactor other than from the feeds and the heat of reaction. The reaction is carried out under sub-stoichiometric conditions whereby the oxygen/steam/gas mixture is converted to syngas.
- the Fischer-Tropsch reaction for converting syngas which is composed primarily of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen gas (H 2 ), may be characterized by the following general reaction: 2nH 2 + nCO ⁇ (-CH 2 -) n + nH 2 O
- Non-reactive components such as nitrogen may also be included or mixed with the syngas. This may occur in those instances where air, enriched air, or some other non-pure oxygen source is used during the syngas formation.
- the syngas is delivered to a synthesis unit, which includes a Fischer-Tropsch reactor (FTR) containing a Fischer-Tropsch catalyst.

Any of the following reactor configurations may be employed for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis: fixed bed, slurry bed reactor, ebullating bed, fluidizing bed, or continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR).
- the FTR may be operated at a pressure of about 100 psia to about 500 psia and a temperature of about 375° F to about 500° F.
- the reactor gas hourly space velocity may be from about 1000 to about 8000 hr -1 .
- Syngas useful in producing a Fischer-Tropsch product useful in the invention may contain gaseous hydrocarbons, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and nitrogen with H 2 /CO ratios from about 1.8:1 to about 2.4:1.
- the hydrocarbon products derived from the Fischer-Tropsch reaction may range from methane (CH 4 ) to high molecular weight paraffinic waxes containing more than 100 carbon atoms.
- a Fischer-Tropsch reactor FMR
- the tail gas of the Fischer-Tropsch product is recovered overhead in line 3 and the Fischer-Tropsch oil and wax are fractionated and recovered through lines 4 and 5, respectively.
- the product recovered in line 4 is a Light Fischer-Tropsch Liquid (LFTL)
- the product recovered in line 5 is a Heavy Fischer-Tropsch Liquid (HFTL).
- the LFTL fraction will contain between about 2% and about 15% of isoparaffins. Substantially all of the isoparaffins are terminal monomethyl species. For the purposes of this invention, the terminal species are 2- and 3-methyl branched. The ratio of terminal monomethyl to internal monomethyl branching in the LFTL paraffins may range from about 1:1.5, 1:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, or greater. Unless otherwise noted, all percentages herein are by weight.
- LFTL which is comprised primarily of C 2 to C 24 hydrocarbons
- dehydration unit 6 primary and internal alcohols, i.e., FT oxygenates, present in the LFTL are dehydrated to yield corresponding olefins.
- FT oxygenates present in the LFTL are dehydrated to yield corresponding olefins.
- a detailed discussion of the dehydration process is contained in co-pending, commonly-owned application entitled “Integrated Fischer-Tropsch Process with Improved Oxygenate Processing Capability", Provisional Application Serial No. 60/455,224, naming Armen Abazajian et al. as inventors, now utility Application Serial No. 10/426,154, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- the LFTL may be distilled prior to dehydration to separate out a C 8 -C 20+ cut which is then passed into dehydration unit 6.
- the dehydrated product produced in dehydration unit 6 is recovered and condensed.
- the condensed product will contain aqueous and organic phases which may be separated using any appropriate method, such as phase separation. Both the organic and aqueous phases are essentially free of alcohols, the alcohols having been substantially completely dehydrated.
- the organic phase primarily contains paraffins with some olefins, the olefins arising from dehydration of the alcohols as well as from the Fischer-Tropsch product.
- the organic phase may be passed to a fractionator 8.
- HFTL from FTR 2 may also be passed into fractionator 8 through conduit 5.
- a naphtha product may be removed overhead from fractionator 8 through conduit 13 and a C 8+ fraction passed into hydrocracker/hydrotreatment unit 10 in which the C 8+ fraction is cracked to lower molecular weight hydrocarbons.
- the hydrocracked product produced in hydrocracker/hydrotreatment unit 10 is passed to a second fractionating unit 12 where a middle distillate having a nominal boiling range of between about 250°F and about 700°F is recovered through conduit 14. All or part of the middle distillate may be used as a transportation fuel or blending stock therefor.
- Fig. 2 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the integrated Fischer-Tropsch process.
- the LFTL and HFTL are combined and fractionated in a distillation column 30.
- Nominal 30°-600°F product is removed as one or more side-streams, including a nominal 30°-250°F fraction through line 32, a nominal 250°-500°F fraction though line 34, and a nominal 500°F+ fraction through line 35.
- Only the 250°-500°F fraction is routed to the dehydration unit 6.
- fractionatedThe dehydrated 250°-500°F fraction is sent through conduit 33 to a product receptacle and/or blending unit 37.
- Fig. 1 depicts the dehydrated product mixture of paraffins and olefins as also being routed to hydrocracking/hydrotreating unit 10, which is appropriate where a fully hydrotreated product is desired.
- the dehydrated product mixture may alternatively be separately hydroisomerized.
- the dehydrated product mixture may receive no post-dehydration hydroprocessing.
- Fig. 3 depicts several acceptable hydrocracker/hydroisomerizer arrangement.
- any of a number of alternative post-dehydration and higher boiling range fraction treatment schemes may be employed within the integrated Fischer-Tropsch process depending upon the desired slate of products.
- alternative treatment schemes include:
- Processing schemes (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), and (j) are most useful for producing ultraclean synthetic middle distillate fuels.
- the product of the integrated Fischer-Tropsch process may be used directly as a transportation fuel or as a blending stock for formulating a transportation fuel.
- schemes (b), (c), (f), (g), (h), (i), and (j) are most useful for making olefin/paraffin mixtures as dehydrated product which can be used as feedstocks for single product middle distillate fuel feedstocks. Note that where the dehydration product is not subjected to hydroprocessing or hydrotreatment, olefins produced in the Fischer-Tropsch reaction remain in the middle distillate fraction and are incorporated into the synthetic transportation fuel.
- the middle distillate portion of the dehydrated LFTL contains only a relatively low level, i.e., about 2 wt% to about 10 wt%, of branched paraffins essentially all of which are monomethyl branched
- the middle distillate by itself is generally not used as a transportation fuel. That is, the high ratio of normal paraffins results in cloud and freeze points which prohibit the incorporation of higher molecular weight paraffins.
- Most diesel and essentially all jet fuels may require blending with the hydrocracked HFTL portion. Because the hydrocracking process yields more highly branched paraffins, the hydrocracked HFTL portion generally lowers the cloud and freeze points of the final blended fuel.
- the hydrocracked HFTL contains a large proportion of multimethyl-branched isoparaffins. Moreover, those molecules in the hydrocracked HFTL that are monomethyl-branched are more likely to be terminally branched. As a consequence, between about 20 and about 75% of the branched paraffins in the resulting blended fuel are monomethyl-branched, depending on the final properties of the fuel. Furthermore, among the monomethyl-branched paraffins, the terminal monomethyl species predominate.
- a hydrocarbon mixture produced by the integrated Fischer-Tropsch process is provided.
- a synthetic transportation fuel or blending stock therefor having no sulfur, essentially no FT oxygenates, a cetane number of at least 50, and a cloud point or freezing point of less than about 5°C.
- the synthetic transportation fuel may contain between about 1wt% and about 20 wt% olefins, of which at least about 1wt% is mono-olefin in the 200° to 700°F boiling point range.

- the overheads of the first column was fed into the second column operating at 12 psig pressure, 370°F overhead temperature and 437°F bottoms temperature.
- the second column was packed with 28 inches of Sulzer EX packing.
- the bottoms of the second column constituted the product C 10-13 light kerosene stream.

- the blended product was flashed to remove approximately 7% of the total volume of the blended product was collected overhead as a light end fraction and the 15% of the total volume of the blended product was retained as a heavy end fraction.
- the remaining middle cut about 78% of the total volume of the blended product, contained about 8% olefins.
- This middle cut was then blended 1:1 with a fully hydroprocessed Fischer-Tropsch diesel having no unsaturation or significant hetero-atom content (Fuel Y).
- the resulting fuel sample (Fuel X) had a flashpoint of 146°F, and a cloud point -6°C.
- Fuel X was submitted for a blind HFRR (ASTM D-6079) lubricity test with two comparative samples: Fuel Y, having a flashpoint of 136°F and cloud point of -21°C and an ASTM supplied mineral-based ULSD diesel (Fuel Z), having a flashpoint of 130°F and a cloud point of -11°C.
- the lubricity test results are summarized in Table 6. Samples (D-6079) mm @ 60°C Y 0.574 X 0.391 Z 0.501
- HFRR test results report an average wear scar diameter. A smaller number indicates a smaller wear scar and, consequently, a more lubricious fuel.
- Fuel X' was produced by mixing Fuel X (from Example 6) with a mixture of Fuel Y and 1-dodecene in a ratio of 1 part of Fuel X to 2.2 parts of the Fuel Y plus 1-dodecene mixture. The ratio of Fuel Y to 1-dodecene was determined so that Fuel X' contained about 4% olefins. Fuel X', Fuel Y, and Fuel Z were submitted for oxidative stability testing in accordance with ASTM D-2274.
- Fischer-Tropsch oil and Fischer-Tropsch wax were fed into a pilot hydrotreater and hydrocracker arrangement in series.
- the hydrotreater was operated at 500°F and the hydrocracker was operated at 716°F and total LHSV of about 1 hr -1 .
- the gas/oil ratio was 3568 scf/bbl.
- the resulting diesel fuel E had the following properties: Analysis Testing Method Fuel E Density @ 15°C, g/ml D4052 0.7679 Cetane Number D613 >74.8 Cetane Index D4737 78 Flash Point, °C D93 62 CFPP, °C D6317 -21 Cloud Point, °C D5773 -11.9 Flash Point, °C D56 ---
- Fuel E was analyzed on a capillary GC to identify the type of branching in the sample.
- the results, in vol%, are summarized in Table 9. 2/3-Me 4-Me+ Mono Methyl Multi-Methyl 10.6978 13.3841 24.0820 18.3575
- the balance of the sample is normal paraffins.
- the ratio of 2/3 methyl-branched isoparaffins or terminal-branched isoparaffins to internal-branched isoparaffins (4-Me+) in Fuel E is about 1:1.25. Further, the ratio of the monomethyl content of Fuel E to the multi-methyl content is about 1.3:1 (57% of the branching is monomethyl and 43% is multi-methyl).
- One advantage of the inventive Fischer-Tropsch process is improvement of yield of useful products. It is known by those skilled in the art that oxygenates in the hydrocracking feed reduce hydrocracking catalyst life and therefore, necessitate higher hydrocracking temperatures to achieve the required low temperature properties of a specific boiling range and to maintain conversion per pass. Higher hydrocracking temperatures lead to lower product yields. Moreover, bypassing the Fischer-Tropsch product in the middle distillate range directly to product blending introduces alcohols into the final product. Alcohols are known to have poor low temperature properties, such as freeze point and cloud point. Poor low temperature properties are especially detrimental in formulating military and jet fuels. Hydrocracking conditions must be intensified to compensate for the impact of the alcohols thereby resulting in yield loss.
- the product being bypassed is hydrotreated, it is well known that paraffins generated in hydrotreatment have higher freeze point and yet again cause deterioration in the low temperature properties of the blended product.
- the inventive Fisher-Tropsch process disposes of the alcohols by converting them into olefins which have beneficial low temperature properties.
- hetero-atoms such as sulfur and oxygen
- hydrocarbon fuel which does not contain hetero-atoms and which has the lubricity and stability characteristics of a hetero-atom containing fuel.
- a distinguishing characteristic of Fischer-Tropsch derived fuels is their high cetane number credited to very high normal and slightly-branched paraffin content. It is well known in the art that the cetane number of linear alpha-and internal-olefins is also very high. Typically, the cetane number of alpha- and internal olefins is only 5-10 units lower than for a corresponding linear paraffin and about equivalent to the mono-branched isomers of the same carbon number.
