Definitions

  • the present invention describes a process for the hydrocracking and hydroisomerization treatment of feedstocks from the Fischer-Tropsch process, making it possible to obtain middle distillates (gas oil, kerosene), ie initial boiling point cuts. at least 150 ° C and final at most 340 ° C and optionally oil bases.
  • the synthesis gas (CO + H 2 ) is catalytically converted into oxygenates and substantially linear hydrocarbons in gaseous, liquid or solid form.
  • these products mainly made of normal paraffins, can not be used as such, in particular because of their cold-holding properties that are not very compatible with the usual uses of petroleum fractions.
  • the pour point of a linear hydrocarbon containing 20 carbon atoms per molecule (boiling point equal to about 340 ° C., ie often included in the middle distillate cut) is + 37 ° C. about which makes its use impossible, the specification being -15 ° C for diesel.
  • the hydrocarbons from the Fischer-Tropsch process comprising mainly n-paraffins must be converted into more valuable products such as, for example, gas oil, kerosene, which are obtained, for example, after catalytic hydrocracking / hydroisomerization reactions.
  • These products are generally free of heteroatomic impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen or metals. They contain practically no aromatics, naphthenes and more generally cycles, in particular in the case of cobalt catalysts.
  • oxygenated compounds may have a significant content of unsaturated compounds of olefinic type and oxygenated products (such as alcohols, carboxylic acids, ketones, aldehydes and esters). These oxygenated and unsaturated compounds are more concentrated in the light fractions. Thus in the C5 + fraction corresponding to the products boiling at an initial boiling point of between 20 ° C. and 40 ° C., these compounds represent between 10-20% by weight of olefinic type unsaturated compounds and between 5-10% by weight. of oxygenated compounds.
  • One of the objectives of the invention is to eliminate, during a hydrotreatment step, upstream of a hydrocracking step, the olefinic type unsaturated compounds, said hydrotreatment step being carried out under less severe conditions. than those of the hydrocracking step. Unsaturated olefinic compounds present in the hydrocracking feeds reduce the service life of a hydrocracking catalyst.
