Definitions
- the subject of the invention is a process for the selective hydrogenation of polyunsaturated compounds in a hydrocarbon feedstock, in particular in C2-C5 steam cracking cuts and steam cracking essences, or a process for the hydrogenation of at least one aromatic or polyaromatic compound contained in a hydrocarbon feedstock allowing the transformation of aromatic compounds from petroleum or petrochemical cuts by conversion of aromatic rings into naphthenic rings.
- the process for selective hydrogenation or for hydrogenation of aromatics is carried out in the presence of a catalyst prepared according to a particular procedure.
- Catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of polyunsaturated compounds or for the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds are generally based on group VIII metals of the periodic table, such as nickel.
- the metal is in the form of nanometric metallic particles deposited on a support which can be a refractory oxide.
- the group VIII metal content, the possible presence of a second metallic element, the size of the metal particles and the distribution of the active phase in the support as well as the nature and porous distribution of the support are parameters which can have a importance on the performance of catalysts.
- the rate of the hydrogenation reaction is governed by several criteria, such as the diffusion of the reactants on the surface of the catalyst (external diffusion limitations), the diffusion of the reactants in the porosity of the support towards the active sites (internal diffusion limitations) and the intrinsic properties of the active phase such as the size of the metal particles and the distribution of the active phase within the support.
- the catalyst As regards the size of the metal particles, it is generally accepted that the catalyst is more active the smaller the size of the metal particles. In addition, it is important to obtain a particle size distribution centered on the optimal value as well as a narrow distribution around this value.
- the most conventional way of preparing these catalysts is the impregnation of the support with an aqueous solution of a nickel precursor, generally followed by drying and calcination. Before their use in hydrogenation reactions these catalysts are generally reduced in order to obtain the active phase which is in metallic form (that is to say in the state of zero valence).
- the nickel-based alumina catalysts prepared by a single impregnation step generally make it possible to reach nickel contents of between 12 and 15% by weight of nickel approximately relative to the total weight of the catalyst, depending on the pore volume of the alumina used.
- nickel contents of between 12 and 15% by weight of nickel approximately relative to the total weight of the catalyst, depending on the pore volume of the alumina used.
- several successive impregnations are often necessary to obtain the desired nickel content, followed by at least one drying step, then optionally a calcination step between each impregnation .
- application FR2984761 discloses a process for the preparation of a selective hydrogenation catalyst comprising a support and an active phase comprising a group VIII metal, said catalyst being prepared by a process comprising a step of impregnating a solution containing a group VIII metal precursor and an organic additive, more particularly an organic compound having one to three carboxylic acid functions, a step of drying the impregnated support, and a step of calcining the dried support in order to obtain the catalyst.
- the processes for preparing the additive catalysts typically use an impregnation step in which the organic compound is introduced, optionally in solution in a solvent, so as to fill all the porosity of the support, whether or not it is impregnated with precursors metallic, in order to obtain a homogeneous distribution.
- This inevitably leads to the use of large quantities of organic compound or to diluting the organic compound in a solvent.
- a drying step is then necessary to remove the excess compound or the solvent and thus release the porosity necessary for the use of the catalyst.
- the cost related to the excess of the compound organic or the use of a solvent is added the cost of an additional step of preparation of drying, consuming energy.
- evaporation of the solvent can also be accompanied by a partial loss of the organic compound by vaporization and therefore a loss of catalytic activity.
- a catalyst comprising an active phase based on at least one group VIII metal, preferably nickel, supported on an oxide matrix, prepared from a preparation process comprising at least a step of adding an organic compound to the porous support by impregnation in the gaseous phase makes it possible to obtain performance in terms of activity in selective hydrogenation of polyunsaturated compounds or in hydrogenation of aromatic compounds at least as good, or even better, than the known processes of the state of the art.
- the gaseous addition of the organic additive during the preparation of the catalyst makes it possible to obtain performance in hydrogenation in terms of activity at least as good, or even better, than known catalysts, the preparation process of which comprises a step of adding the same organic additive by liquid means (for example by dry impregnation) even though the size of the active phase particles obtained on the catalyst (measured in their forms oxide) is equivalent.

- the objective of bringing the porous support into contact with the carrier solid comprising the organic compound is to allow a gaseous transfer of part of the organic compound contained in the carrier solid to the porous support.
- This step is based on the principle of the existence of a vapor pressure of the organic compound at a given temperature and pressure.
- part of the organic compound molecules of the solid vector comprising the organic compound passes in gaseous form (vaporization) and is then transferred (by gaseous route) to the porous support.
- the porous solid (“carrier solid”) acts as a source of organic compound to enrich the porous support with organic compound, which preferably does not initially comprise an organic compound. This embodiment is therefore different from a simple maturation step as conventionally encountered in the prior art.
- the use of such a contacting step, ie by gas transfer, between the porous solid comprising the organic compound and the porous support can save a drying step which would conventionally take place after an impregnation step.
- organic compound diluted in a solvent on the porous support (monitoring optionally a maturation step) in order to remove the solvent used.
- the porous solid (“carrier solid”) comprising the organic compound is obtained by impregnation with the organic compound in the liquid state. Unlike the prior art, the organic compound is not diluted in a solvent.
- An advantage of this embodiment compared to the methods of the prior art therefore lies in the absence of a drying step which is conventionally used to remove the solvent after the impregnation step and therefore to be less energy-consuming by compared to conventional processes.
- This absence of a drying step can make it possible to avoid possible losses of organic compound by vaporization or even by degradation.
- the volume of organic compound used is strictly less than the total volume of the accessible porosity of the porous solid and of the porous support used in step a) and is fixed relative to the amount of organic compound targeted on the porous solid at the end of step a).
- Another advantage of this embodiment is therefore the use of a smaller amount of organic compound compared to the case of the prior art where, in the absence of solvent, all the porosity should be filled with organic compound.
- the mass ratio (porous solid comprising the organic compound) / (porous support) is a function of the porous distribution of the porous solid and the porous support and of the objective in terms of the quantity of organic compound targeted on the porous support.
- This mass ratio is generally less than or equal to 10, preferably less than 2 and even more preferably between 0.05 and 1, limits included.
- step a) is carried out under conditions of temperature, pressure and duration so as to achieve equilibration of the amount of organic compound on the porous solid (“carrier solid”) and the porous support.
- the term "balancing" means the fact that at the end of step a) at least 50% by weight of the porous solid and the porous support have an amount of said organic compound equal to more or less 50% of the targeted quantity, preferably at least 80% by weight of the porous solid and the porous support have an amount of said organic compound equal to more or less 40% of the targeted quantity and even more preferably at least 90% by weight of the porous solid and of the porous support have an amount of said organic compound equal to plus or minus 20% of the targeted amount.
- the aim is the preparation of a porous support comprising 5% by weight of organic compound
- equilibration is achieved when at least 50% by weight of the porous solid and the porous support have an amount of said organic compound which corresponds to a content of between 2.5 and 7.5% by weight, preferably when at least 80% by weight of the porous solid and the porous support have an amount of said organic compound which corresponds to a content which is between 3 and 7% by weight, and even more preferably, when at least 90% by weight of the solid porous and porous support have an amount of said organic compound which corresponds to a content between 4 and 6% by weight.
- the determination of these contents can be done by a statistically representative sampling for which the samples can be characterized for example by assaying carbon and / or possible heteroatoms contained in the organic compound or by thermogravimetry coupled to an analyzer, for example a spectrometer mass, or an infrared spectrometer and thus determine the respective contents of organic compounds.
- an analyzer for example a spectrometer mass, or an infrared spectrometer
- Step a) is preferably carried out under controlled temperature and pressure conditions and so that the temperature is lower than the boiling temperature of said organic compound to be transferred by gas.
- the processing temperature is less than 150 ° C. and the absolute pressure is generally between 0.1 and 1 MPa, preferably between 0.1 and 0.5 MPa and more preferably between 0, 1 and 0.2 MPa. It is thus possible to operate the step of bringing into presence in an open or closed enclosure, possibly with a control of the composition of the gas present in the enclosure.
- the step of bringing the porous solid and the porous support together takes place in an open enclosure, it will be ensured that the entrainment of the organic compound outside the enclosure is limited as much as possible.
- the step of bringing the porous solid and the porous support into contact can be carried out in a closed enclosure, for example in a container for storing or transporting the solid which is impermeable to gas exchange with the external environment.

It is advantageous to circulate a gas flow first through the compartment containing the porous solid comprising the organic compound and then through the compartment containing the porous support.
- the porous solid (“carrier solid”) is different in nature from the porous solid (serving as catalyst support), that is to say that the porous solid has at least one physical characteristic which discriminates against porous support to allow for example their subsequent separation.
- this physical characteristic can be:
- the separation can be carried out on a sieve or by cyclone;
- this difference in density can for example be used for separation by elutriation or by cyclone;
- the separation is done by the application of an electrostatic field.
- said porous support and said porous solid containing the organic compound can advantageously be of different porosity and / or chemical nature (s).
- the porous solid can be of chemical composition adapted to disadvantage the adsorption of the compound to be impregnated compared to the adsorption of the compound to be impregnated on the porous support.
- a similar effect can be obtained by adapting the porous structure of the porous solid so that it has an average opening of its pores which is greater than that of the porous support so as to promote the transfer of the organic compound onto the porous support, particularly in the case of capillary condensation.
