Definitions
- This invention relates to a catalyst for hydrotreating and a process for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oils using the same, more particularly to the multi-component solid catalyst with a hydrogenation-active component dispersed uniformly in a matrix of refractory, inorganic oxide, and the process for hydro-treating hydrocarbon oils using the same.
- a refractory inorganic oxide e.g., alumina, silica, magnesia and zirconia
- the hydrogenation-active component is selected from the group consisting of the group 6A elements (e.g., molybdenum, tungsten and chromium) and the group 8 elements (e.g., cobalt and nickel).
- One of the widely used methods for producing these catalysts is impregnation, in which a carrier is impregnated with an aqueous solution of a group 6A element and group 8 element, dried and calcined.
- a carrier is impregnated with an aqueous solution of a group 6A element and group 8 element, dried and calcined.
- One of the disadvantages involved in the impregnation method is difficulty in dispersing the active component highly uniformly, because it is highly mobile during the catalyst production process from adsorption or precipitation to completion of drying. This mobility comes from the weak bond between the active component and carrier, because the carrier is impregnated, after it is prepared, with a solution of the active component, with the result that it is merely adsorbed or precipitated on the carrier.
- the conventional catalyst tends to suffer lack of homogeneity and decreased number of active sites, when content of the active component is optimized to enhance catalyst hydrotreating activity. This tends to limit its activity. Therefore, new techniques for the catalysts of high homogeneity and activity have been increasingly in demand.
- Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 83603/1986 discloses a method for producing a homogeneous, amorphous complex metal oxide. This method, however, involves several disadvantages. First, satisfying the amorphous condition tends to limit content of the hydrogenation-active component, and hence catalyst activity for hydrotreating.
- a carrier containing crystalline compound e.g., ⁇ -Al 2 O 3 , which has an effective function as the carrier for hydrotreating catalyst is no longer used for this method.
- An amorphous metal oxide is unstable and low in mechanical strength, and hence unsuitable for a commercial catalyst which is required to exhibit long serviceability.
- a high-activity hydrotreating catalyst with a hydrogenation-active component highly dispersed, high in homogeneity and containing a crystalline component, which is also high in desulfurization activity for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oil, and also excellent in activity for, e.g., denitrogenation, dearomatization and cracking and which can treat diversified types of hydrocarbon oils, e.g., hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodearomatization, hydroisomerization, hydrocracking, hydrodewaxing, hydrodemetallization, in particular deep hydrodesulfurization of a diesel fuel fraction.
- the inventors of the present invention have found, after having conducted extensive studies, that the catalyst comprising a refractory inorganic oxide matrix dispersed with a hydrogenation-active component, high in homogeneity and containing a crystalline component shows high activity for hydrotreating (e.g., hydrodesulfurizing) a hydrocarbon oil.
- hydrotreating e.g., hydrodesulfurizing
- the present invention provides a hydrotreating catalyst containing a crystalline component comprising a refractory inorganic oxide matrix dispersed with a hydrogenation-active component,
- said hydrogenation-active component comprising at least one active component (A) selected from group 6A elements, and/or at least one active component (B) selected from the group 8 elements, wherein
- total content of said hydrogenation-active component is 0.02 moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst
- N max , N min and N 0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component, determined by the EPMA line analysis), or following relationship (2), established by the EPMA plane analysis:
- S parameter and P parameter are an index for size uniformity and distribution of the active component particles, respectively, determined by the EPMA plane analysis
- the present invention also provides a process for hydrotreating a hydrocarbon oil, where the oil is brought into contact with hydrogen under hydrotreating conditions in the presence of the above hydrotreating catalyst.

- FIG. 2 is an X-ray diffraction pattern of the hydrotreating catalyst prepared by COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3.

- total content of said hydrogenation-active component is 0.02moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst.
- the total content is expressed as the sum content of the components.
- the hydrotreating catalyst is able to exhibit high uniformity, when each of its active components satisfies the relationship (1) or (2),
- N max , N min and N 0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component in the variation range, determined by the EPMA line analysis.
- the compounds useful for the refractory inorganic matrix as the constituent of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention include alumina, silica, magnesia, calcium oxide, boria, zirconia, titania, thoria, ceria, hafnia, phosphorus oxide, and various other metal oxides.
- oxide compositions having two or more oxides can be used.
- alumina-silica alumina-magnesia, alumina-boria, alumina-zirconia, alumina-thoria, alumina-titania-zirconia, silica-magnesia, silica-zirconia, silica-boria, silica-thoria and silica-titania.
- the preferable refractory inorganic oxide matrix for the present invention comprises alumina and silica, which may be incorporated with a third component, e.g., magnesia, boria, titania, zirconia, ceria, hafnia, thoria and phosphorus oxide. More concretely, these composites include alumina-silica-boria, alumina-silica-titania, alumina-silica-zirconia, alumina-silica-ceria, alumina-silica-magnesia, alumina-silica-halfnia, alumina-silica-phosphorus oxide and alumina-silica-boria-phosphorus oxide.
- a third component e.g., magnesia, boria, titania, zirconia, ceria, hafnia, thoria and phosphorus oxide.
- these composites include alumina-silica-boria, alumina
- the above refractory inorganic oxide matrix of alumina, silica or alumina-silica may be incorporated with a zeolite or clay material, e.g., montmorillonite, kaolinite, halloysite, bentonite and attapulgite, to form the refractory inorganic oxide matrix component.
- a zeolite or clay material e.g., montmorillonite, kaolinite, halloysite, bentonite and attapulgite
- the hydrogenation-active component which constitutes the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is uniformly dispersed in the above refractory inorganic oxide matrix.
- the hydrogenation-active component comprises at least one active component (A) selected from the group consisting of the group 6A elements, and/or at least one active component (B) selected from the group consisting of the group 8 elements. It may be further incorporated with an active component (C) selected from the group consisting of the group 1 B, group 2B and group 7A elements.
- the group 6A elements useful for the active component (A) include chromium, molybdenum and tungsten, of which molybdenum and tungsten are more preferable. Molybdenum is most preferable. They may be used either individually or in combination.
- the elements useful for the active component (B) include iron, cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium and platinum, of which cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, iridium and platinum are preferable. More preferable active components include cobalt, nickel and platinum. Cobalt and nickel are most preferable. They may be used either individually or in combination.
- the elements useful for the active component (C), selected from the group 1B, group 2B and group 7A elements, include copper, zinc, manganese and rhenium. They may be used individually, but preferably in combination with the active components (A) and (B).
- Total content of the active components (A), (B) and (C) for the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is 0.02 moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst, preferably 0.024 mol/mol to 0.25 mol/mol. Reaction activity or the like of the catalyst will be insufficient at an active component content below 0.02 mol/mol. Securing the content within the above range realizes the catalyst high in homogeneity, containing a crystalline component and hence high in activity.
- “Homogeneity” of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention means that the refractory inorganic oxide matrix is uniformly dispersed with the active component particles of uniform size. More concretely, the following conditions are simultaneously satisfied:
- the particles of the hydrogenation-active component, comprising the active components (A), (B) and (C), to be dispersed in the refractory inorganic oxide matrix are uniformly sized, and
- the catalyst will have high activity, when the active component particles are highly uniform in size and dispersed highly uniformly (i.e., at constant intervals), because it will have the active sites distributed widely and uniformly.
- Homogeneity of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is determined by electron probe microanalysis (referred to as “EPMA”, as required). More concretely, EPMA line analysis or plane analysis is used, depending on size of the active component particles and distance between these particles, and the results are used to determine homogeneity.
- EPMA line analysis determines concentration distribution of the active component of the group 6A element and/or group 8 element or the like in the catalyst section, trying to evaluate homogeneity based on the EPMA line analysis data obtained by numerically expressing variation range.
- the inventors of the present invention have found, after having analyzed a number of experimental results, that a catalyst is highly homogeneous and shows notable effects of hydrotreating, e.g., hydrodesulfurization, when it satisfies the following relationship:
- N max , N min and N 0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component in the variation range of the catalyst section, determined by EPMA line analysis.
- Any hydrogenation-active component is to be evaluated by the EPMA line analysis when it is present at 0.002 mol/mol or more in the catalyst.
- each is to be evaluated, needless to say when one type of the hydrogenation-active component is present.
- the inventors of the present invention have found that activity of the catalyst is not greatly affected by its homogeneity, when the hydrogenation-active component is present at below 0.002 mol/mol. Therefore, activity of the catalyst for, e.g., desulfurization, can be sufficiently evaluated, when homogeneity of each hydrogenation-active component present at 0.002 mol/mol or more is measured.
- the hydrogenation-active component includes the above-described active components (A), (B) and (C). Each component should satisfy the relationship (1), when it is present at 0.002 mol/mol or more.
- the EPMA plane analysis measures size and size distribution morphology of the active component particles, processing images to numerically express uniformity of the size and its distribution.
- S parameter and P parameter are an index for size uniformity and distribution uniformity of the active component particles, respectively, each determined by processing the images obtained by the EPMA plane analysis.
- the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention contains a crystalline component, which represents another characteristic of the present invention together with its homogeneity. Its presence is judged when one or more diffraction lines are observed in the spectral pattern obtained by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD).
- XRD X-ray diffraction analysis
- FIG. 1 shows the XRD spectral pattern of the catalyst prepared by EXAMPLE 2. As shown, the sharp peaks relevant to the crystalline system are observed at specific diffraction angles.
- FIG. 2 gives the XRD spectral pattern of the catalyst prepared by COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3, showing no crystal-derived diffraction line, indicating that the catalyst is amorphous.
- a catalyst when containing a crystalline component, shows higher activity because of its capacity to contain a larger quantity of the active component. It will show still higher activity, when it contains a component having a crystalline compound such as ⁇ -Al 2 O 3 known to exhibit an effective function as a refractory inorganic oxide. Moreover, a crystalline component will secure a sufficient strength, and hence serviceability, for a commercial hydrotreating catalyst.
- the method for producing the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is not limited, but the one suitable for the present invention is coprecipitation, which simultaneously precipitates two or more catalyst components from a mixture which contains at least one hydrogenation-active component.
- oxygenated organometallic compounds as the starting materials for the refractory inorganic oxide matrix and inorganic metal salt as the starting material for the hydrogenation-active component are dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, to prepare a homogeneous solution,
- the compounds useful as the starting material for the refractory inorganic oxide matrix include alkoxides, acetylacetonates and carboxylates of aluminum, silicon, magnesium, calcium, boron, zirconium, titanium, thorium, cerium, hafnium and gallium, of which alkoxides with an alkoxyl group having a carbon number of I to 5 are preferable for their easiness of handling.
- the compounds useful as the starting materials for the hydrogenation-active component include the inorganic metal salts described earlier. More concretely, they include nitrates, chlorides, oxychlorides and sulfides of molybdenum, tungsten, chromium, iron, cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum, copper, zinc, manganese and rhenium; and ammonium salts of the acids of the above metals.
- organic metal salts e.g., acetates, oxalates and alkoxides, may be also used.
- the non-aqueous solvents useful for the present invention include monoalcohols, divalent alcohols, ketoalcohols, aminoalcohols and carboxylic acids. Quantity of the reaction material may be determined, depending on content of the desired catalytic component.
- the homogeneous solution can be prepared by dissolving oxygenated organometallic compounds (e.g., aluminum alkoxide and silicon alkoxide) in a non-aqueous solvent with stirring, to which an inorganic metal salt (e.g., ammonium molybdate, or nitrate of cobalt or nickel) is added with stirring, to form the homogeneous solution.
- an inorganic metal salt e.g., ammonium molybdate, or nitrate of cobalt or nickel
- Aqueous solutions of ammonium molybdate, and nitrate of cobalt or nickel, or the like may be added in the subsequent step (2) to the homogeneous solution prepared in the step (1) by dissolving aluminum alkoxide and silicon alkoxide in a non-aqueous solvent with stirring.
- the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention high in homogeneity, containing a crystalline component and satisfying the relationship (1) or (2) described earlier can be produced by, in particular, controlling, e.g., temperature, pressure, stirring conditions, size of the gel particles, gel particle concentration, and quantity of hydrolyzing water in the precipitant solution, in the step (2) as the sol-preparation step.
- the non-aqueous solvent is preferably used at 0.1 moles to 50 moles per mole of the total metallic and semi-metallic elements and phosphorus which constitute the hydrotreating catalyst, more preferably 1 mol/mol to 20 mol/mol. It is essential to avoid use of an excessive quantity of the solvent while controlling the reaction conditions in such a way to form the stable, fluid gel slurry, in order to prepare the catalyst of high homogeneity.
- the gel slurry is held at 50° C. to 99° C. preferably for at least 1 hour.
- This aging step mainly controls pore characteristics of the catalyst, to enhance its reaction activity.
- the aged gel slurry as the catalyst precursor is treated by filtration, settling, centrifugal separation or evaporation to adjust content of the water-containing solvent, and formed into a shape by tablet making, extrusion, rotary granulation or the like.
- the catalyst may be cylindrical, table-shaped, spherical or others, such as that having a four-leaf section. It is important for the catalyst to have a shape and size which allow to control packing density in the reactor. It is preferable to adjust size of the catalyst pellets, which is porous, for increasing packing density. Catalyst diameter is normally in a range from 0.5 mm to 20 mm on the average, viewed from increasing packing density and controlling pressure loss.
- the catalyst pellets formed in the step (3) are then dried and calcined in the step (4). They may be dried by one of many methods, e.g., air-drying, drying in hot wind, drying under heating and freeze drying. They are calcined at 150° C. to 700° C. at which they are held for 1 hour to 20 hours in an oxidative, reducing, inert, sulfiding, nitriding, carbonizing or steam atmosphere depending on their specific purposes.
- the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention has a specific surface area of 10 m 2 /g to 1000 m 2 /g (preferably 200 m 2 /g to 800 m 2 /g), total pore volume of 0.1 ml/g to 2 ml/g (preferably 0.2 ml/g to 1.5 ml/g) and average pore diameter of 4 ⁇ to 1000 ⁇ (preferably 10 ⁇ to 600 ⁇ ), is high in homogeneity, contains a crystalline component, and is suitable as the catalyst for hydrotreating a hydro-carbon oil.

Abstract
A high-activity hydrotreating catalyst containing a uniformly dispersed active component at a high concentration, and particularly useful for deep desulfurization of a hydrocarbon oil for its high hydrodesulfurization activity. The present invention also provides a hydrotreating process using the same catalyst.
Description
- This application is a divisional application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/652,954, filed Aug. 31, 2000, which claims priority to Japanese Patent Application No. 287424/1999, filed Oct. 7, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention relates to a catalyst for hydrotreating and a process for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oils using the same, more particularly to the multi-component solid catalyst with a hydrogenation-active component dispersed uniformly in a matrix of refractory, inorganic oxide, and the process for hydro-treating hydrocarbon oils using the same.
- Various types of catalysts have been proposed for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oils, e.g., those with one or more hydrogenation-active components carried by a refractory inorganic oxide (e.g., alumina, silica, magnesia and zirconia), and the hydrogenation-active component is selected from the group consisting of the group 6A elements (e.g., molybdenum, tungsten and chromium) and the group 8 elements (e.g., cobalt and nickel).
- One of the widely used methods for producing these catalysts is impregnation, in which a carrier is impregnated with an aqueous solution of a group 6A element and group 8 element, dried and calcined. One of the disadvantages involved in the impregnation method is difficulty in dispersing the active component highly uniformly, because it is highly mobile during the catalyst production process from adsorption or precipitation to completion of drying. This mobility comes from the weak bond between the active component and carrier, because the carrier is impregnated, after it is prepared, with a solution of the active component, with the result that it is merely adsorbed or precipitated on the carrier.
- Other disadvantages are limited content of the active component and difficulty in controlling the content in an optimum range. The active component is immobilized on the already prepared carrier, by which is meant that content of the active component tends to be limited by total pore volume of the carrier.
- The conventional catalyst, therefore, tends to suffer lack of homogeneity and decreased number of active sites, when content of the active component is optimized to enhance catalyst hydrotreating activity. This tends to limit its activity. Therefore, new techniques for the catalysts of high homogeneity and activity have been increasingly in demand. As one of the attempts to realize such a catalyst, Japanese Laid-open Patent Application No. 83603/1986 discloses a method for producing a homogeneous, amorphous complex metal oxide. This method, however, involves several disadvantages. First, satisfying the amorphous condition tends to limit content of the hydrogenation-active component, and hence catalyst activity for hydrotreating. A carrier containing crystalline compound, e.g., □-Al2O3, which has an effective function as the carrier for hydrotreating catalyst is no longer used for this method. An amorphous metal oxide is unstable and low in mechanical strength, and hence unsuitable for a commercial catalyst which is required to exhibit long serviceability.
- Recently, reduction of sulfur content of gas oil is strongly required for environmental reasons, especially by deep desulfurization of stocks of high sulfur contents, e.g., light gas oil (LGO), vacuum gas oil (VGO) and cracked gas oil. In particular, sulfur content of diesel fuel oil is required to be reduced to 0.05 wt. % or lower. The techniques to achieve the required desulfurization level have been studied from wide angles, and it is now considered that whether this is achieved or not largely depends on whether sulfur compounds difficult to remove, e.g., 4-methyl dibenzothiophene and 4-6-dimethyl dibenzothiophene, are efficiently desulfurized. Development of catalysts of higher activity is essential also viewed from the above point.
- It would be desirable to provide a high-activity hydrotreating catalyst, with a hydrogenation-active component highly dispersed, high in homogeneity and containing a crystalline component, which is also high in desulfurization activity for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oil, and also excellent in activity for, e.g., denitrogenation, dearomatization and cracking and which can treat diversified types of hydrocarbon oils, e.g., hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodearomatization, hydroisomerization, hydrocracking, hydrodewaxing, hydrodemetallization, in particular deep hydrodesulfurization of a diesel fuel fraction.
- The inventors of the present invention have found, after having conducted extensive studies, that the catalyst comprising a refractory inorganic oxide matrix dispersed with a hydrogenation-active component, high in homogeneity and containing a crystalline component shows high activity for hydrotreating (e.g., hydrodesulfurizing) a hydrocarbon oil.
- The present invention provides a hydrotreating catalyst containing a crystalline component comprising a refractory inorganic oxide matrix dispersed with a hydrogenation-active component,
- said hydrogenation-active component comprising at least one active component (A) selected from group 6A elements, and/or at least one active component (B) selected from the group 8 elements, wherein
- (1) total content of said hydrogenation-active component is 0.02 moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst,
- (2) of said hydrogenation-active component, any one, when present at 0.002 mol/mol or more, satisfies the following relationship (1), established by the electron probe microanalysis (“EPMA”) line analysis:
- N max-N min≦2×[3×(N 0)0.5+0.2×N 0] (1)
- (Nmax, Nmin and N0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component, determined by the EPMA line analysis), or following relationship (2), established by the EPMA plane analysis:
- 0.8≦S parameter<1, 0.8≦P parameter<1 (2)
- (S parameter and P parameter are an index for size uniformity and distribution of the active component particles, respectively, determined by the EPMA plane analysis), and
- (3) one or more diffraction lines relevant to crystalline component are observed by powder X-ray diffraction analysis.
- The present invention also provides a process for hydrotreating a hydrocarbon oil, where the oil is brought into contact with hydrogen under hydrotreating conditions in the presence of the above hydrotreating catalyst.

- FIG. 2 is an X-ray diffraction pattern of the hydrotreating catalyst prepared by COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3.
- The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention comprises a refractory inorganic oxide matrix uniformly dispersed with a hydrogenation-active component, high in homogeneity and containing a crystalline component and satisfying the following conditions (1), (2) and (3):
- (1) First, total content of said hydrogenation-active component is 0.02moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst. When two or more hydrogenation-active components are present, the total content is expressed as the sum content of the components.
- (2) Secondly, of said hydrogenation-active component, any one, when present at 0.002 mol/mol or more, satisfies the following relationship (1), established by the EPMA line analysis:
- N max-N min≦2×[3×(N 0)0.5+0.2×N 0] (1)
- or following relationship (2), established by the EPMA plane analysis:
- 0.8≦S parameter<1, 0.8≦P parameter<1 (2)
- The hydrotreating catalyst is able to exhibit high uniformity, when each of its active components satisfies the relationship (1) or (2),
- (3) Thirdly, one or more diffraction lines relevant to crystalline component are observed by powder X-ray diffraction analysis.
- In the relationship (1), Nmax, Nmin and N0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component in the variation range, determined by the EPMA line analysis.
- The compounds useful for the refractory inorganic matrix as the constituent of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention include alumina, silica, magnesia, calcium oxide, boria, zirconia, titania, thoria, ceria, hafnia, phosphorus oxide, and various other metal oxides. In particular, oxide compositions having two or more oxides can be used. These include alumina-silica, alumina-magnesia, alumina-boria, alumina-zirconia, alumina-thoria, alumina-titania-zirconia, silica-magnesia, silica-zirconia, silica-boria, silica-thoria and silica-titania.
- The preferable refractory inorganic oxide matrix for the present invention comprises alumina and silica, which may be incorporated with a third component, e.g., magnesia, boria, titania, zirconia, ceria, hafnia, thoria and phosphorus oxide. More concretely, these composites include alumina-silica-boria, alumina-silica-titania, alumina-silica-zirconia, alumina-silica-ceria, alumina-silica-magnesia, alumina-silica-halfnia, alumina-silica-phosphorus oxide and alumina-silica-boria-phosphorus oxide.
- The above refractory inorganic oxide matrix of alumina, silica or alumina-silica may be incorporated with a zeolite or clay material, e.g., montmorillonite, kaolinite, halloysite, bentonite and attapulgite, to form the refractory inorganic oxide matrix component.
- The hydrogenation-active component which constitutes the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is uniformly dispersed in the above refractory inorganic oxide matrix.
- The hydrogenation-active component comprises at least one active component (A) selected from the group consisting of the group 6A elements, and/or at least one active component (B) selected from the group consisting of the group 8 elements. It may be further incorporated with an active component (C) selected from the group consisting of the group 1 B, group 2B and group 7A elements.
- The group 6A elements useful for the active component (A) include chromium, molybdenum and tungsten, of which molybdenum and tungsten are more preferable. Molybdenum is most preferable. They may be used either individually or in combination.
- The elements useful for the active component (B) include iron, cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium and platinum, of which cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, iridium and platinum are preferable. More preferable active components include cobalt, nickel and platinum. Cobalt and nickel are most preferable. They may be used either individually or in combination.
- The elements useful for the active component (C), selected from the group 1B, group 2B and group 7A elements, include copper, zinc, manganese and rhenium. They may be used individually, but preferably in combination with the active components (A) and (B).
- Total content of the active components (A), (B) and (C) for the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is 0.02 moles to 0.4 moles per mole of all of the elements that constitute the catalyst, preferably 0.024 mol/mol to 0.25 mol/mol. Reaction activity or the like of the catalyst will be insufficient at an active component content below 0.02 mol/mol. Securing the content within the above range realizes the catalyst high in homogeneity, containing a crystalline component and hence high in activity.
- Next, homogeneity of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is described.
- “Homogeneity” of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention means that the refractory inorganic oxide matrix is uniformly dispersed with the active component particles of uniform size. More concretely, the following conditions are simultaneously satisfied:
- (1) the particles of the hydrogenation-active component, comprising the active components (A), (B) and (C), to be dispersed in the refractory inorganic oxide matrix are uniformly sized, and
- (2) these particles are dispersed at constant intervals.
- The catalyst will have high activity, when the active component particles are highly uniform in size and dispersed highly uniformly (i.e., at constant intervals), because it will have the active sites distributed widely and uniformly.
- Homogeneity of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is determined by electron probe microanalysis (referred to as “EPMA”, as required). More concretely, EPMA line analysis or plane analysis is used, depending on size of the active component particles and distance between these particles, and the results are used to determine homogeneity.
- EPMA line analysis determines concentration distribution of the active component of the group 6A element and/or group 8 element or the like in the catalyst section, trying to evaluate homogeneity based on the EPMA line analysis data obtained by numerically expressing variation range. The inventors of the present invention have found, after having analyzed a number of experimental results, that a catalyst is highly homogeneous and shows notable effects of hydrotreating, e.g., hydrodesulfurization, when it satisfies the following relationship:
- The relationship (1) is expressed as follows:
- N max-N min≦2×[3×(N 0)0.5+0.2×N 0] (1)
- wherein Nmax, Nmin and N0 are the maximum, minimum and average contents of the hydrogenation-active component in the variation range of the catalyst section, determined by EPMA line analysis.
- Any hydrogenation-active component is to be evaluated by the EPMA line analysis when it is present at 0.002 mol/mol or more in the catalyst. When two or more types of the hydrogenation-active components are present, each is to be evaluated, needless to say when one type of the hydrogenation-active component is present. The inventors of the present invention have found that activity of the catalyst is not greatly affected by its homogeneity, when the hydrogenation-active component is present at below 0.002 mol/mol. Therefore, activity of the catalyst for, e.g., desulfurization, can be sufficiently evaluated, when homogeneity of each hydrogenation-active component present at 0.002 mol/mol or more is measured. The hydrogenation-active component includes the above-described active components (A), (B) and (C). Each component should satisfy the relationship (1), when it is present at 0.002 mol/mol or more.
- On the other hand, the EPMA plane analysis measures size and size distribution morphology of the active component particles, processing images to numerically express uniformity of the size and its distribution.
- It is found by the plane analysis that a catalyst is highly homogeneous and shows notable effects of hydrodesulfurization, when it satisfies the following relationship:
- The relationship (2) is expressed as follows:
- 0.8≦S parameter<1, 0.8≦P parameter<1 (2)
- wherein S parameter and P parameter are an index for size uniformity and distribution uniformity of the active component particles, respectively, each determined by processing the images obtained by the EPMA plane analysis.
-
- wherein (n) is number of the active component particles, and (ai) is an area of the ith particle present in the plane.
-
- wherein (m) is number of the divided sections of the same area, and (bi) is an area of the ith section.
- Next, crystallinity of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is described. The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention contains a crystalline component, which represents another characteristic of the present invention together with its homogeneity. Its presence is judged when one or more diffraction lines are observed in the spectral pattern obtained by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). A concrete example is given in FIG. 1, which shows the XRD spectral pattern of the catalyst prepared by EXAMPLE 2. As shown, the sharp peaks relevant to the crystalline system are observed at specific diffraction angles. FIG. 2, on the other hand, gives the XRD spectral pattern of the catalyst prepared by COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3, showing no crystal-derived diffraction line, indicating that the catalyst is amorphous.
- A catalyst, when containing a crystalline component, shows higher activity because of its capacity to contain a larger quantity of the active component. It will show still higher activity, when it contains a component having a crystalline compound such as α-Al2O3 known to exhibit an effective function as a refractory inorganic oxide. Moreover, a crystalline component will secure a sufficient strength, and hence serviceability, for a commercial hydrotreating catalyst.
- Next, the method for producing the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is described. The method for producing the catalyst is not limited, but the one suitable for the present invention is coprecipitation, which simultaneously precipitates two or more catalyst components from a mixture which contains at least one hydrogenation-active component.
- More concretely, the process comprising the following steps can be used:
- (1) oxygenated organometallic compounds as the starting materials for the refractory inorganic oxide matrix and inorganic metal salt as the starting material for the hydrogenation-active component are dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, to prepare a homogeneous solution,
- (2) a precipitant-containing solution is added to the homogeneous solution prepared by the step (1), to prepare a gel slurry from the homogeneous sol,
- (3) the gel slurry prepared by the step (2) is aged, and
- (4) the aged gel is dried and calcined.
- The compounds useful as the starting material for the refractory inorganic oxide matrix include alkoxides, acetylacetonates and carboxylates of aluminum, silicon, magnesium, calcium, boron, zirconium, titanium, thorium, cerium, hafnium and gallium, of which alkoxides with an alkoxyl group having a carbon number of I to 5 are preferable for their easiness of handling. These include aluminum methoxide, aluminum ethoxide, aluminum isopropoxide, aluminum butoxide, tetramethoxy silane, tetraethoxy silane, tetraisopropoxy silane, tetra-t-butoxy silane, magnesium methoxide, magnesium ethoxide, magnesium isopropoxide, calcium methoxide, boron methoxide, boron ethoxide, zirconium ethoxide, zirconium propoxide, zirconium-sec-butoxide, titanium ethoxide, titanium isopropoxide and hafnium ethoxide.
- The compounds useful as the starting materials for the hydrogenation-active component include the inorganic metal salts described earlier. More concretely, they include nitrates, chlorides, oxychlorides and sulfides of molybdenum, tungsten, chromium, iron, cobalt, nickel, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum, copper, zinc, manganese and rhenium; and ammonium salts of the acids of the above metals. In addition to the above inorganic metal salts, organic metal salts, e.g., acetates, oxalates and alkoxides, may be also used.
- The non-aqueous solvents useful for the present invention include monoalcohols, divalent alcohols, ketoalcohols, aminoalcohols and carboxylic acids. Quantity of the reaction material may be determined, depending on content of the desired catalytic component.
- In the step (1), the homogeneous solution can be prepared by dissolving oxygenated organometallic compounds (e.g., aluminum alkoxide and silicon alkoxide) in a non-aqueous solvent with stirring, to which an inorganic metal salt (e.g., ammonium molybdate, or nitrate of cobalt or nickel) is added with stirring, to form the homogeneous solution. Aqueous solutions of ammonium molybdate, and nitrate of cobalt or nickel, or the like may be added in the subsequent step (2) to the homogeneous solution prepared in the step (1) by dissolving aluminum alkoxide and silicon alkoxide in a non-aqueous solvent with stirring. The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention, high in homogeneity, containing a crystalline component and satisfying the relationship (1) or (2) described earlier can be produced by, in particular, controlling, e.g., temperature, pressure, stirring conditions, size of the gel particles, gel particle concentration, and quantity of hydrolyzing water in the precipitant solution, in the step (2) as the sol-preparation step.
- In the step (1), the non-aqueous solvent is preferably used at 0.1 moles to 50 moles per mole of the total metallic and semi-metallic elements and phosphorus which constitute the hydrotreating catalyst, more preferably 1 mol/mol to 20 mol/mol. It is essential to avoid use of an excessive quantity of the solvent while controlling the reaction conditions in such a way to form the stable, fluid gel slurry, in order to prepare the catalyst of high homogeneity.
- In the aging step (3), the gel slurry is held at 50° C. to 99° C. preferably for at least 1 hour. This aging step mainly controls pore characteristics of the catalyst, to enhance its reaction activity.
- The aged gel slurry as the catalyst precursor is treated by filtration, settling, centrifugal separation or evaporation to adjust content of the water-containing solvent, and formed into a shape by tablet making, extrusion, rotary granulation or the like. The catalyst may be cylindrical, table-shaped, spherical or others, such as that having a four-leaf section. It is important for the catalyst to have a shape and size which allow to control packing density in the reactor. It is preferable to adjust size of the catalyst pellets, which is porous, for increasing packing density. Catalyst diameter is normally in a range from 0.5 mm to 20 mm on the average, viewed from increasing packing density and controlling pressure loss.
- The catalyst pellets formed in the step (3) are then dried and calcined in the step (4). They may be dried by one of many methods, e.g., air-drying, drying in hot wind, drying under heating and freeze drying. They are calcined at 150° C. to 700° C. at which they are held for 1 hour to 20 hours in an oxidative, reducing, inert, sulfiding, nitriding, carbonizing or steam atmosphere depending on their specific purposes.
- The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention has a specific surface area of 10 m2/g to 1000 m2/g (preferably 200 m2/g to 800 m2/g), total pore volume of 0.1 ml/g to 2 ml/g (preferably 0.2 ml/g to 1.5 ml/g) and average pore diameter of 4 Å to 1000 Å (preferably 10 Å to 600 Å), is high in homogeneity, contains a crystalline component, and is suitable as the catalyst for hydrotreating a hydro-carbon oil.
- The present invention provides a hydrotreating catalyst, applicable to all types of the reactions proceeding in the presence of hydrogen, in particular hydrofinishing, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodearomatization, hydroisomerization, hydrocracking, hydrodewaxing, hydrodemetallization and the like. The process of the present invention for hydrotreating a hydrocarbon oil is described as follows.
- The hydrotreating process of the present invention includes all of the reactions, e.g., hydrofining, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodearomatization, hydroisomerization, hydrocracking, hydrodewaxing, hydrodemetallization, occurring when hydrocarbon oils are brought into contact with hydrogen in the presence of the hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention under hydrotreating conditions. The hydrotreating conditions can be optionally selected for the desired reactions. The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention is particularly suitable for the hydrodesulfurization of hydrocarbon oils.
- Hydrocarbon oils which can be treated by the hydrotreating process of the present invention are not limited. They include petroleum-derived oils, e.g., atmospheric distillates, atmospheric residue, vacuum distillates, vacuum residue, cracked distillates, raffinates, hydrotreated oils, deasphalted oils, slack wax, Fischer-Tropsch wax and a mixture thereof. They also include oils derived from tar sand, shale oil, coal-liquefied oil, and a mixture thereof. The catalyst of the present invention is particularly suitable for treating vacuum, cracked and straight-run distillates to remove their sulfur- and nitrogen-containing compounds which are difficult to remove.
- A vacuum distillate, produced by treating atmospheric residue under a vacuum, boils at around 370° C. to 610° C., and contains significant quantities of sulfur, nitrogen and metals, e.g., at 2.0 wt. % and 800 wt.ppm for sulfur and nitrogen. The sulfur-containing compounds include 4-methylbenzothiophene and 4,6-dimethyl-benzothiophene. The nitrogen-containing compounds include pyridines, amines and amides which are basic, and pyrroles which are weakly basic. The metals include nickel, vanadium and iron. The catalyst produced by the method of the present invention can treat these vacuum distillates most efficiently to remove sulfur and nitrogen.
- Cracked distillates are the fractions boiling at around 200° C. or higher, produced by thermal cracking (e.g., coking or visbreaking) of residue, or light cycle gas oil (LCGO) or heavy cycle gas oil (HCGO) produced by a fluid catalytic cracking unit.
- The atmospheric distillates which can be treated by the hydrotreating process of the present invention include straight-run naphtha, heavy naphtha and kerosene fractions. They also include gasoline components produced by various cracking units, e.g., catalytically cracked naphtha, thermally cracked naphtha and steam-cracked naphtha, and other light fractions used as fuel components which boil at around 250° C. or lower.
- The hydrotreating conditions are not limited. They can be adequately selected for specific situations, e.g., type of hydrocarbon oil to be treated and desired reactions, and target desulfurization and denitrogenation levels. The preferable conditions are reaction temperature: 150° C. to 500° C., more preferably 200° C. to 450° C.; reaction pressure: 1 kg/cm2 to 350 kg/cm2, more preferably 5 kg/cm to 300 kg/cm2; hydrogen-containing treat gas rate: 301/1 to 2000 1/1, more preferably 351/1 to 1800 1/1; and liquid hourly space velocity: 0.01 V/H/V to 20.0 V/H/V, more preferably 0.05 V/H/V to 10.0 V/H/V. They are most preferably 250° C. to 400° C. as reaction temperature, 40 kg/cm2 to 100 kg/cm2 as reaction pressure, 180 1/1 to 230 l/l as hydrogen-containing treat gas rate and 0.8 V/H/V to 1.5 V/H/V as liquid hourly space velocity. Hydrogen content in treat gas is normally in a range from 60% to 100%.
- The hydrotreating catalyst of the present invention exhibits high activities for, e.g., desulfurization, denitrogenation and dearomatization and also high activity maintenance capacity therefor, and can achieve with stability required performance, e.g., desulfurization rate, for extended periods under the severe conditions which would deactivate the conventional catalyst in a short time, in particular under low reaction pressure.
- Hydrotreatment of a hydrocarbon oil over the catalyst of the present invention can be effected in any type of reactor, e.g., fixed, fluidized, ebullated or moving bed type. A fixed bed type is a normal choice, for its simpler process and higher operability. Two or more reactors may be connected in series for deeper hydrotreatment. This is a particularly preferable configuration, when heavy oil is to be treated. Hydrocarbon oil may be brought into contact with a hydrogen-containing treat gas either co-currently or counter-currently.
