Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of processes for the hydrotreatment of a diesel type feed using a concatenation of catalysts.
  • the aim of the process is to produce desulphurized and denitrogenated diesel.
  • the hydrotreatment process of the invention is particularly suitable for the hydrotreatment of feeds comprising high levels of nitrogen.
  • a catalyst for the hydrotreatment of hydrocarbon cuts is intended to eliminate the sulphur-containing or nitrogen-containing compounds contained therein in order, for example, to ensure that an oil product meets the required specifications (sulphur content, aromatics content, etc.) for a given application (automobile fuel, gasoline or diesel, domestic fuel, jet fuel).
  • the composition and the use of hydrotreatment catalysts have been particularly thoroughly described in the article by B. S Clausen, H. T. Tops ⁇ e, and F. E. Massoth, published in Catalysis Science and Technology, volume 11 (1996), Springer-Verlag.
  • the hydrotreatment catalysts generally have hydrodesulphurizing functions and hydrogenating functions based on a sulphide of metals from groups VIB and VIII.
  • patent application US 2011/0079542 discloses that replacement of a portion of a reference HDS catalyst at the head of the bed by a catalyst with a lower activity does not modify the performances of the overall charge compared with 100% reference catalyst, because over the first portion of catalytic bed, the reaction occurs on non-refractory sulphur-containing species and does not require a high performance catalyst.
  • Patent EP 0651041 discloses the advantage of linking together beds of catalysts with different particle shapes in a concatenation.
  • the present invention concerns a process for the hydrotreatment of a feed of the diesel type by using a specific concatenation of at least two different types of catalysts, which can increase the overall activity and overall stability of the hydrotreatment process compared with a hydrotreatment process using the same quantity and the same operating conditions as just one of these two types of catalysts.
  • hydrotreatment means reactions in particular encompassing hydrodesulphurization (HDS), hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) and hydrogenation of aromatics (HDA).
  • HDS hydrodesulphurization
  • HDN hydrodenitrogenation
  • HDA hydrogenation of aromatics
  • the feed is initially brought into contact with a first type of catalyst comprising phosphorus and an active phase in its oxide form, i.e. said first catalyst is prepared using a process comprising at least one calcining step after impregnation of metallic salts.
  • This first type of catalyst is termed the “catalyst in the oxide form” or “calcined catalyst”.
  • the feed is then brought into contact with a second type of catalyst which has been prepared by introducing phosphorus, active phase and an organic compound containing oxygen and/or nitrogen followed by a drying step, without subsequent calcining. It should be noted that this second type of catalyst does not undergo calcining, and so the active phase is not in its oxide form.
  • This second type of catalyst is known as an “additive-containing catalyst”.
  • the present invention concerns a process for the hydrotreatment of a hydrocarbon feed containing nitrogen-containing compounds in an amount of more than 150 ppm by weight and having a weighted average temperature in the range 250° C. to 380° C., comprising the following steps:
  • step b) bringing the effluent obtained in step a) into contact, in the presence of hydrogen, with at least one second catalyst comprising an alumina support, phosphorus, an active phase formed by at least one metal from group VIB and at least one metal from group VIII, and at least one organic compound containing oxygen and/or nitrogen, said second catalyst being prepared in accordance with a process comprising the following steps:
  • step ii) drying said catalyst precursor obtained from step i) at a temperature of less than 200° C., without subsequent calcining; in order to obtain a hydrotreated effluent.
  • the Applicant has developed a process for the hydrotreatment of a diesel type feed, comprising a concatenation of catalysts which can be used to carry out, firstly, a hydrotreatment over a catalyst in its oxide form (calcined catalyst) which has a good hydrodesulphurization and hydrodenitrogenation activity.
  • This first type of catalyst is in particular less inhibited by refractory basic nitrogen-containing molecules and thus more active in hydrodenitrogenation than an additive-containing catalyst. This means that an intense hydrodenitrogenation can be carried out in the first step of the process of the invention and thus relieves the additive-containing catalyst of the second step which is brought into contact with the effluent leaving from this first step.
  • the hydrotreatment is then continued by bringing the feed which has been freed from a large part of its nitrogen-containing molecules and a portion of its sulphur-containing molecules into contact with an additive-containing catalyst which is particularly active in HDS, thus allowing the intense hydrotreatment to be completed. Because the feed is brought into contact with a catalyst in the oxide form before being brought into contact with an additive-containing catalyst, the additive-containing catalyst is less inhibited by nitrogen-containing molecules and thus more active and stable over time.
  • the specific concatenation can thus protect the additive-containing catalyst which is highly active for HDS with a catalyst in the oxide form which is highly active in HDN, which has the result of increasing the overall activity and overall stability of the catalytic concatenation compared with a catalytic system containing only additive-containing catalysts.
  • the overall activity is increased as the hourly space velocity (volume of feed which can be treated per unit time) can be increased or, alternatively, less catalyst could be used to treat the same volume of feed.
  • the temperature necessary to obtain a desired sulphur content for example 10 ppm of sulphur
  • the overall stability is increased, as the cycle time is longer.
  • the hydrotreatment process of the invention is particularly suitable for the hydrotreatment of feeds comprising high organic nitrogen contents, such as feeds obtained from catalytic cracking, from a coker or from visbreaking.
  • the process of the present invention can be used to produce a hydrotreated hydrocarbon cut, i.e. free of any nitrogen-containing compounds, and at the same time desulphurized to contents of 10 ppm of sulphur or less.
  • ppm of sulphur or nitrogen
  • the hydrodesulphurization conversion is more than 98%, preferably more than 99%.
  • the specific concatenation of catalysts in the process of the invention can thus be used to carry out an intense hydrotreatment, and in particular an intense hydrodesulphurization of diesel fuels in order to obtain diesel which complies with the specifications (ULSD, Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel).
  • the metal from group VIB is molybdenum and the metal from group VIII is selected from cobalt, nickel and a mixture of these two elements.
  • the quantity of metal from group VIB is in the range 5% to 40% by weight of oxide of the metal from group VIB with respect to the total catalyst weight
  • the quantity of metal from group VIII is in the range 1% to 10% by weight of oxide of the metal from group VIII with respect to the total catalyst weight
  • the quantity of phosphorus is in the range 0.1% to 10% by weight of P 2 O 5 with respect to the total catalyst weight.
  • the catalyst of step a) or b) further contains at least one dopant selected from boron and fluorine and a mixture of boron and fluorine.
