Definitions
- the invention relates to the conversion of aromatics in the production of aromatics for the petrochemical industry (benzene, toluene, paraxylene, orthoxylene).
- the aromatic complex is supplied with charges C6 to C10 +, the aromatic alkyls are extracted there and then converted into desired intermediates.
- the products of interest are aromatics with 0, 1 or 2 methyls, xylenes having the highest market value. Methyl groups should therefore be available.
- a hydrodealkylation reaction is a dealkylation reaction (substitution, in a molecule, of a hydrogen atom for an alkyl radical) in which the removal of the alkyl group from aromatic molecules is carried out in the presence of hydrogen. Specifically, it is a terminal cut of the alkyl chain at the "raz" of the nucleus.
- the catalysis can be of the acid type, used in particular on alkyl chains with 2 or more carbons but very ineffective for methyls, or metallic, when it is desired in particular to convert the methyls.
- the conversion of methyls is used in particular for the reduction of the cutting point of gasolines for which all the molecules must lose carbons, or for the production of benzene for which the reaction is pushed to the maximum to preserve only the aromatic nucleus.
- a hydrogenolysis reaction is a chemical reaction by which a carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom covalent bond is broken down or lysed by the action of hydrogen.
- a hydrodealkylation reaction can therefore be considered as a hydrogenolysis reaction of the carbon-carbon bond between an alkyl and an aromatic nucleus.
- a hydrogenolysis reaction also relates to the carbon-carbon bonds internal to the alkyl group with 2 or more carbons.
- Hydrodealkylation units are known from the prior art, mainly used to produce high purity benzene from toluene.
- the LITOL and DETOL processes of McDermott (formerly CB&I) are examples of hydrodealkylation which can be either thermal or catalytic.
- Commercial hydrodealkylation units operate generally a metal catalysis which implies a hydrogenolysis type reaction.
- the term hydrodealkylation is therefore not exclusive and alkyls with 2 or more carbons also undergo hydrogenolysis there. This type of unit can be called the hydrogenolysis unit of alkyl aromatics.
- the units mentioned above are used either to produce benzene from heavier mono-aromatics (toluene, xylenes, etc.), or to reduce the cutting point of gasolines. No particular care is taken with the total quantity of methyls available after the conversion unit.
- US Patent 4,177,219 describes catalysts for the conversion of ethyl-aromatics to aromatic methyls. This patent details a processing route that converts ethyl aromatics to methyl aromatics. It details in its state of the art catalysts that can be used on the hydrogenolysis of methyl-aromatics or more to produce benzene, catalysts based on nickel or on more noble metals (ruthenium). Cobalt and chromium alloys are also cited. This patent proposes an alloyed catalyst based on a group VIII metal promoted by zinc on an alumina of at least 100 m 2 / g as catalyst of choice for the selective conversion of ethyl-aromatics to methyl-aromatics.
- a first object of the present description is to overcome the problems of the prior art and to carry out a selective hydrogenolysis of ethyl-aromatics making it possible in particular to decrease the hydrogenolysis of methyl-aromatics, to increase the levels methyl groups on the aromatics, to keep a maximum of aromatic cycles, and to limit side reactions on the products formed.
- the abovementioned objects, as well as other advantages, are obtained by a hydrogenolysis process in which a hydrocarbon feed comprising aromatic compounds having at least 8 carbon atoms is treated, by means of a supply of hydrogen and in the presence of a catalyst, in order to convert into alkyl groups C2 + alkyl chains of said aromatic compounds and produce a hydrogenolysis effluent enriched in aromatic compounds substituted in methyl,

- paraxylene In petrochemicals, paraxylene is one of the intermediaries with the highest market value. Its production requires mono-aromatics substituted in methyl, it is mainly produced by disproportionation of toluene, isomerization of xylenes or transalkylation of toluene with tri- or tetra-methyl-benzenes. To maximize the production of paraxylene, it is useful to maximize the amount of methyl group available per aromatic ring.
- mono-aromatics substituted in methyls are directly recoverable, which is not the case for mono-aromatics containing little or no methyl (example: ethyl benzene, propyl benzene , methyl-ethylbenzene). It is therefore preferable to convert these mono-aromatics to substituted aromatics (e.g. only) in methyls.

- the objective of the hydrogenolysis unit according to the present invention is to produce methyl groups in place of alkyl groups with more than two carbon atoms.
- the object of the invention is to improve the performance of the hydrogenolysis unit.

- the specific surface of the catalyst or of the support used for the preparation of the catalyst according to the invention is understood to mean the BET specific surface determined by nitrogen adsorption in accordance with standard ASTM D 3663-78 established on the basis of the BRUNAUER-EMMETT method. -TELLER described in the periodical "The Journal of American Society", 60, 309, (1938).
- pore volume of the catalyst or of the support used for the preparation of the catalyst according to the invention is meant the volume measured by intrusion with a mercury porosimeter according to standard ASTM D4284-83 at a maximum pressure of 4000 bar (400 MPa), using a surface tension of 484 dyne / cm and a contact angle of 140 °.
- the wetting angle was taken equal to 140 ° following the recommendations of the book "Engineering techniques, treatise analysis and characterization", pages 1050-1055, written by Jean Charpin and Bernard Rasneur.
- the value of the pore volume corresponds to the value of the pore volume measured by intrusion with a mercury porosimeter measured on the sample minus the value of the pore volume measured by intrusion with a mercury porosimeter measured on the same sample for a pressure corresponding to 30 psi (about 0.2 MPa).
- the catalyst according to the invention comprises a bimetallic catalyst of the NiMo type and comprises a support comprising at least one refractory oxide, and an active phase.
