Definitions

  • VANADIUM RARE EARTH METAL-CONTAINING SPINEL COMPOSITION AND PROCESS OF USING SAME
  • This invention relates to improved vanadium, rare earth metal-containing spinel compositions, particularly for use in a manner to effect a reduction in the emission of sulfur oxides and/or nitrogen oxides to the atmosphere.
  • the invention involves compositions and processes for the catalytic cracking of sulfur-containing hydrocarbon feedstocks to effect a reduction in the amount of sulfur oxides and/or nitrogen oxides emitted from the regeneration zone of a hydrocarbon catalytic cracking unit.
  • catalytic cracking of hydrocarbons takes place in a reaction zone at hydrocarbon cracking conditions to produce at least one hydrocarbon product and to cause carbonaceous material (coke) to be deposited on the catalyst. Additionally, some sulfur, originally present in the feed hydrocarbons, may also be deposited, e.g., as a component of the coke, on the catalyst.
  • Sulfur-containing coke deposits tend to deactivate cracking catalyst.
  • Cracking catalyst is advantageously continuously regenerated, by combustion with oxygen-containing gas in a regeneration zone, to low coke levels, typically below about 0.4% by weight, to perform satisfactorily when it is recycled to the reactor.
  • the regeneration zone at least a portion of sulfur, along with carbon and hydrogen, which is deposited on the catalyst, is oxidized and leaves in the form of sulfur oxides (sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide, hereinafter referred to a "SOx") along with substantial amounts of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water.
  • SOx sulfur oxides
  • At least a portion of the nitrogen which may be present in the coke deposits and/or in the oxygen-containing gas, is oxidized at the conditions in the regeneration zone to nitrogen oxides which also leave with the flue gas from the regeneration zone.
  • a metallic component either incorporated into catalyst particles or present on any of a variety of "inert" supports, is exposed alternately to the oxidizing atmosphere of the regeneration zone of an FCCU and the reducing atmosphere of the cracking zone to reduce sulfur oxide emissions from regenerator gases in accordance with the teachings of U.S. Patents Nos. 4,153,534 and 4,153,535 to Vasalos and Vasalos, et al., respectively.
  • a metallic oxidation promoter consisting of components of ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, platinum, osmium, iridium, platinum, vanadium, uranium, zirconium, rhenium, silver and mixtures thereof is also present when carbon monoxide emissions are to be reduced.
  • the more preferred metallic promoter consists of components of ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum and rhenium.
  • These patents disclose nineteen different metallic components, including materials as diverse as alkaline earths, sodium, heavy metals and rare earth, as being suitable reactants for reducing emissions of oxides of sulfur.
  • the metallic reactants that are especially preferred are sodium, magnesium, manganese and copper.
  • the carriers for the metallic reactants preferably have surface areas of at least 50 square meters per gram. Examples of allegedly "inert" supports are silica, alumina and silica-alumina.
  • the Vasalos and Vasalos, et al. patents further disclose that when certain metallic reactants (exemplified by oxides of iron, manganese or cerium) are employed to capture oxides of sulfur, such metallic components can be in the form of a finely divided fluidizable powder.
  • sorbents have been proposed for desulfurization of non-FCCU flue gases in zones outside the unit in which SOx is generated.
  • the sorbents are regenerated in environments appreciably richer in hydrogen than the cracking zone of an FCC unit.
  • Fifteen adsorbents are disclosed for flue gas desulfurization in a publication of Lowell, et al., "SELECTION OF METAL OXIDES FOR REMOVING SOx FROM FLUE GAS," Ind. Eng. Chemical Process Design Development, Vol. 10, Nov. 3, 1971.
  • cerium on an alumina support is used to absorb SO2 from non-FCCU flue gas streams or automobile exhaust at temperatures of 572 to 1472 degrees F., preferably 932 to 1100 degrees F.
  • Many commercial zeolitic FCC catalyst contain up to 4% rare earth oxide, the rare earth being used to stabilize the zeolite and provide increased activity. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 3,930,987 to Grand.
  • the rare earths are most often used as mixtures of La203, CeO2, Pr6011, Nd203 and others.
  • Some catalyst is produced by using a lanthanum-rich mixture obtained by removing substantial cerium from the mixture of rare earth. It has been found that the mere presence of rare earth in a zeolitic cracking catalyst will not necessarily reduce SOx emissions to an appreciable extent.
  • certain zeolitic catalyst compositions capable of being regenerated at a rate appreciably faster than prior art rare earth exchanged zeolitic catalyst compositions are produced by treating a previously rare earth exchanged zeolitic catalyst composition with a dilute solution containing cerium cations (or a mixture of rare earths rich in cerium).
  • the final catalysts contain 0.5 to 4% cerium cations which are introduced to previously rare earth exchanged zeolitic catalyst particles prior to final filtering, rinsing and calcining. Cerium is described as an "oxidation promoter".
  • U.S. Patents 4,469,589 and 4,472,267 relate to improved materials for reducing SOx emissions comprising spinels, preferably alkaline earth metal, aluminum-containing spinels, which materials may contain one or more other metal components capable of promoting the oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide at combustion conditions.

  • composition 10 has both outstanding initial sulfur oxide removal activity and outstanding sulfur oxide removal activity stability, i . e . , the ability to maintain sulfur oxide removal activity over a period of time.
  • Composition 10 Samples of virgin and aged Composition 10 were taken from a point between the reaction zone and the regeneration zone of the above-noted catalytic cracking pilot plant and were analyzed for sulfur content. It was found that the sulfur contents of these samples was significantly lower than those of other materials, such as Compositions 1, 2 and 3. Thus, it appears that the spinel-containing discrete entities of Composition 10 have reduced sulfur contents coming out of the reaction zone. This, in turn, means that Composition 10 has an increased kinetic driving force for sulfur oxide removal in the regeneration zone. In any event, the present vanadium, rare earth-containing spinel compositions do provide substantial sulfur oxide removal.
