Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to quenching the gaseous products discharged from pyrolysis furnaces. More I particularly, the present invention is directed to reducing the accumulation of inimical deposits of material such as tar or coke in the quench chambers associated with pyrolysis furnaces.
  • the operating problems connected with the formation of coke deposits are particularly troublesome during the quenching of the products from pyrolysis of high-boiling oils such as naphtha, kerosene, and gas oils where, in the course of the quenching, high-boiling oil products are condensed out onto metal surfaces at relatively high temperatures.
  • the condensed liquid is subject to pyrolysis-polymerization reactions leading to partial conversion to coke residue which remains on the surface of the quench chamber.
  • This harmful coke deposition phenomenon is particularly troublesome at the point in the cooling of the pyrolysis gas mixture where the dew point of the gas mixture is just reached and the first small amount of condensed liquid appears. At this point of incipient condensation the very small amount of liquid forming flows very slowly and thus is subjected longest to the pyrolytic-condensation reactions leading to coke deposits. Generally, the rate of coke formation is most rapid when the initial condensation of the pyrolysis product is in the temperature range of about 500900 F.
  • One of the advantages of the present invention is the avoidance of the harmful coke deposits during rapid quenching through the critical 500-900 F. range with a suitable means for minimizing or eliminating thin, long residence liquid films in the 500900 F. range.
  • a method and apparatus for quenching hot pyrolysis gases which minimizes harmful coke deposition.
  • pyrolysis gases may be cooled to below their dew points under conditions where the chamber walls surrounding the initial condensation are covered by rapidly flowing thick liquid films in which the short residence time at high temperature markedly reduces the extent of the pyrolytic-condensation reactions and coke deposition.
  • hot pyroly' sis gases leaving the pyrolysis furnace or cracking zone are conveyed, under pressure, generally downwardly into a quenching zone.
  • the upper portion of the quenching zone surrounds the lowermost portion of the conduit delivering hot gas from the cracking zone to the quenching zone.
  • the said conduit extends a short distance into the quench chamber and is separated therefrom by a suitable insulation means, said means comprising a layer of solid insulation or preferably a combination of solid insulation and one or more annular zones which may be purged by inert fluid such as steam or nitrogen.
  • means are provided for flowing a film of quench oil over the entire interior surface of the quench zone.
  • the film of quench oil will generally flow continuously downwardly along the vertically extending walls of the quench zone.
  • a means or plurality of means are also provided for spraying quench oil into the quench zone into contact with the hot pyrolysis gases whereby cooling is effected.
  • the length of the quench zone and the temperature and boiling range characteristics of the quench oil are selected in accordance with the initial temperature of the pyrolysis gases and the final temperature desired to be achieved by quenching.
  • means are located for flowing quench oil and quenched gases to suitable f ractionatin g means.
  • the quench fluid employed is preferably an oil that is capable of wetting the metal walls of the quench zone.
  • Suitable quench oils are those known to the prior art, including various gas oils and light petroleum distillates.
  • the boiling range of the quench liquid should be such that not more than about 75 percent will be vaporized when in use.
  • the entry temperature of the quench liquid will be selected in accordance with the final temperature desired for the material leaving the quench zone.
  • the quench liquid which flows down the wall and the quench liquid which is sprayed into the quenching zone may be from the same source or from separate sources, according to availability. When separate sources are used, the higher boiling of the two liquids should be directed to flow down the quench chamber wall while the lower boiling liquid is sprayed into the quench zone.
  • FIG. 1 represents a schematic drawing showing the location of the quench zone in relation to the preceding pyrolysis zone and the subsequent fractionating zone;
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional elevational view of the upper portion of the quench zone showing one embodiment of the apparatus for applying a film of quench liquid to the walls of the quench zone;
  • FIG. 3 is a partial sectional elevational view of the upper portion of the quench zone showing another embodiment of the apparatus for applying a film of quench liquid to the walls of the quench zone.
  • feed enters the pyrolysis zone wherein it is cracked and converted to lighter products which leave generally at a temperature between downwardly into the quench chamber 2.
  • the terminal portion 3 of the conduit 1 may be surrounded by a layer of insulation 4 to protect the walls of quench chamber 2 from the extremely high gas temperatures.
  • the insulation maybe a solid type as shown in FIG. 2 or may be a combination of the solid type and one or more insulating gaps as shown in H6. 3.
  • the quench chamber 2 suitably can be a metal pipe or chamber having an opening for receiving the lowermost portion 3 of conduit 1.
  • Means are provided in quench chamber 2 for continuously delivering a film of quench liquid along the vertically extending walls of quench chamber 2.
  • entry ports 5 connected to a source, not shown, of quench liquid at the desired temperature.
  • a metal ring 6 is positioned within the upper part ofquench chamber 2 and, as shown, is connected to quench chamber 2 by suitable connecting means such as bolts 7 or by fusion welding.
  • the ring 6 is essentially frustoconical in configuration with a maximum diameter somewhat smaller than the inside diameter of the quench chamber.
  • a small annular opening 8 is provided between the lowermost edge of the ring 6 and the wall of quench chamber 2.
  • One or more spray means such as shown by nozzles 9 and 10, are provided and are connected to a quench liquid supply, not shown, and are positioned to spray quench liquid supply, under pressure, into quench chamber 2.
  • conduit 1 When the gases passing through conduit 1 are at a temperature low enough that harmful coking of the nozzle does not occur, a single downwardly directed nozzle centrally located near the exit of the conduit 1 may be used.
  • conduit 1 can have dimensions of between about 3 and 18 inches in diameter with quench chamber 2 having a diameter generally at least 4 inches greater than that of conduit 1.
  • the annular opening 8 should be small and will preferably be less than one-quarter of an inch in diameter.
  • cracked gas at an elevated temperature and 5 under pressure passes through conduit 1 and exits through the lowermost portion of conduit 1 into quench chamber 2.
  • Quench liquid at a temperature below its boiling point is delivered through entry ports 5 and annular opening 8 to deliver a film of quench liquid 11 on the surface of quench chamber 2.
  • Additional quench liquid is simultaneously injected into the stream of pyrolysis products through nozzles 9 and and any additional nozzles, not shown, found to be necessary to achieve the desired final temperature.
  • the presence of insulation 4 serves to decrease the flow of heat from conduit 1 to ring 6, thus helping to maintain the ring at a relatively low temperature, ensuring that a minimum of unwanted side reactions will occur in the vicinity of annular opening 8, thus minimizing harmful coke deposition in that area.
  • the insulation 4 can be of any common variety of insulating material such as, for example, diatomaceous earth and will have a thickness such that the temperature on the external portion of the insulation will not exceed about 150 F. higher than the quench oil entry temperature.
  • the insulating material is retained in position and protected from the gaseous and liquid environment by a metallic covering 15. As seen in FIG. 2, the metallic covering 15 is attached directly to the terminal opening 3 of conduit 1 and to the metal wall ofthe quench chamber 2 by suitable means such as welding.
  • a pyrolysis gas containing 100 parts by-weight of hydrocarbons and 80 parts by weight of steam is passed through conduit 1 into quench chamber 2 where it is cooled using a quench oil which is a gas oil having a specific gravity of 0.9 10 and a boiling range of 450 F. to 850 F. and which is introduced into the quench chamber at a temperature below 450 F.

  • the total flow of quench oil is regulated to obtain an exit temperature from the bottom of the quench chamber 2 of 350 F. Approximately 10 percent of the quench oil is vaporized and 90 percent exits as liquid.
