Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an integrated fluid catalytic cracking process (FCC) which allows hydrocarbon blends having a high quality as fuel, to be obtained.
  • FCC fluid catalytic cracking process
  • a fluid catalytic cracking step wherein hydrocarbon cuts of an oil origin are converted into blends having a high content of light cycle oil (LCO) with high quality in terms of density and nature of the aromatic products contained, which, after a separation and a hydrotreatment step, is subjected to an upgrading step by means of treatment with hydrogen and a catalyst comprising one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re and a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature.
  • LCO light cycle oil
  • Said upgrading step comprises enrichment of the resulting blend to alkyl benzene compounds, at least partially deriving from the conversion of naphtho-aromatic structures contained in the LCO cut, generated during the FCC step and also the hydrotreatment step.
  • the integrated process of the present invention leads to hydrocarbon blends having a high cetane index and a reduced density, the latter being of a degree comparable to that which would be obtained by means of total de- aromatization, but effected with a much lower hydrogen consumption.
  • WO2006/124175 describes a process for the conversion of hydrocarbon cuts for producing olefins, aromatic and diesel compounds having a low sulphur content, comprising a fluid catalytic cracking step for producing olefins and, to a lesser extent, LCO, a transformation step of the high- boiling portion of olefins to ethylene and propylene and a hydrocracking step wherein the LCO cut is mainly trans- formed into aromatic compounds and, to a lesser extent, to diesel having a low sulphur content.
  • WO2007/006473 describes a process for improving the quality as fuel of hydrotreated hydrocarbon blends which includes putting said blends in contact with hydrogen in the presence of a catalytic system comprising one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru 7 Rh and Re and a sili- coaluminate of an acidic nature.
  • a particularly preferred aspect of the present invention is to effect the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) step under such conditions as to obtain, with a high yield, a better-quality LCO fraction in terms of density and nature of the aromatic compounds contained.
  • the LCO fraction is characterized not only by a high quality in terms of density, but also by a favourable composition in terms of aromatic compounds, which makes it particularly suitable for being treated in the subsequent steps of the integrated process of the invention.
  • the content of polyaromatic compounds is in fact lower with respect to the LCO cuts obtained under normal FCC conditions, whereas the content of benzo-naphthene compounds is higher.
  • An object of the present invention therefore relates to an integrated process for the conversion of hydrocarbon cuts of an oil origin, into hydrocarbon blends having a high quality as fuel, which includes the following steps: subjecting the hydrocarbon cut to fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) to produce Light Cycle Oil (LCO) , - subjecting the Light Cycle Oil to hydrotreatment , reacting the hydrotreated Light Cycle Oil obtained in the previous hydrotreatment step, with hydrogen in the presence of a catalytic system comprising: a) one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re b) a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature, selected from a zeolite belonging to the MTW family and a completely amorphous micro-mesoporous silico- alumina, having a molar ratio SiO 2 /AL 2 O 3 ranging from 30 to 500, a surface area greater than 500 m 2 /g, a pore volume ranging from 0.3 to 1.3 ml/g, an average
  • the blend resulting from the previous FCC step is sub- jected to separation, in order to separate at least one LCO fraction and an HCO fraction,
  • a catalytic system comprising: a) one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re b) a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature selected from a zeolite belonging to the MTW family and a completely amorphous micro-mesoporous silicoalumina having a molar ratio SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ranging from 30 to 500, a surface area greater than 500 m 2 /g, a pore volume ranging from 0.3 to 1.3 ml/g, an average pore diameter smaller then 40 A.
  • a catalytic system comprising: a) one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re b) a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature selected from a zeolite belonging to the MTW family and a completely amorphous micro-mesoporous silicoalumina having a molar ratio SiO 2 /Al 2
  • Hydrocarbon cuts suitable for being treated in the first step of the integrated process of the present invention are, for example, gas oil, vacuum gas oil, atmospheric residues, products from thermal cracking and hydrocracking residues .
  • the FCC step can be carried out according to the con- ditions known to experts in the field, described, for example in Fluid Catalytic Cracking Handbook 2 nd edition, Reza Sadeghbeigi, ed. Gulf Professional Publishing, 2000.
  • the fluid catalytic cracking process is di- vided into two steps, cracking effected in the riser and regeneration of catalyst carried out in the regenerator, both steps being effected by means of a catalyst in fluid phase.
  • the catalyst is generally a compound of silica and alumina in the form of a porous powder having an average particle-size of 65-85 micron.
  • the cracking reaction is substantially endothermic, is sustained by the sensitive heat coming from the regenerated catalyst flow and takes place by putting the hydrocarbon feedstock in contact with the warm regenerated catalyst.
  • the reaction conditions in- elude a temperature ranging from 450 to 65O 0 C, a pressure in the reaction area ranging from 1.3 to 4.5 kg/cm 2 and a catalyst/oil ratio ranging from 1 to 10 kg/kg, a residence time of the vapours in the reaction area ranging from 0.5 to 10 seconds, preferably from 1 to 5 seconds.
  • the regeneration of the exhausted cracking catalyst is effected by combustion with oxygen of the coke deposited on the catalyst at a temperature ranging from 600 to 815°C and a pressure of the regenerator ranging from 1.3 and 4.5 kg/cm 2 and preferably between 2.4 and 4.0 kg/cm 2 .
  • the FCC step is carried out under such conditions as to maximize the formation of LCO and allow an LCO cut to be obtained, having a high quality from the point of view of density and characterized by a composition particularly favourable in terms of aromatic compounds.
  • the content of polyaromatic compounds is in fact reduced with respect to LCO cuts obtained under normal FCC conditions, in favour of a higher content of benzo-naphthene compounds.
  • This composition characteristic facilitates the subsequent hydrotreatment and upgrading steps, allowing blends having optimum characteristics as fuel to be obtained, using overall lower amounts of hydrogen with respect to what is described in the known art.
  • the high LCO yields obtained in the FCC step are reached by choosing particular and selected temperature conditions and/or by selecting particular pre-heating temperatures of the feedstock.
  • the selection of these particular conditions for effecting the FCC step also allows the cracking reaction to be directed towards a higher formation of HCO as reaction by-product, which, as it can be recycled to the FCC step, allows a higher overall LCO yield to be obtained.
  • the particular and selected temperature conditions which allow the LCO formation to be maximized are those ranging from 490 to 53O 0 C.
  • the particular pre-heating temperatures of the feedstock which allow the LCO yield to be maximized are within the range of 240 to 350 0 C.
  • a pressure ranging from 2.0 to 3.5 kg/cm 2 is preferably used.
  • An LCO yield at least 20% higher, preferably at least 40% higher, is obtained by carrying out the FCC step so as to satisfy at least one of the previous temperature and pre-heating temperature conditions, the remaining complement to 100 consisting of: fuel gas (H 2 , Cl, C2) - LPG (C3-C4) gasolines (C5-210°C) HCO (370+ 0 C) coke
  • the FCC conditions mentioned above for the temperature and pre-heating temperature of the feedstock which allow the formation of LCO to be maximized and obtaining a high- quality LCO cut from the point of view of density, characterized by a particularly favourable composition in terms of aromatic compounds, are new and represent a further as- pect of the present invention.
  • the blend resulting from the first integrated process step of the present invention is separated by distillation.
  • the HCO fraction obtained by the separation is preferably recycled to the FCC step, in a blend with the feed- stock, for example.
  • the LCO fraction obtained from the separation characterized by a composition, in terms of aromatic compounds, rich in benzo-naphthene compounds, is subjected to hy- drotreatment with the aim of reducing the nitrogen and sul- phur content and varying the cut composition, further enriching it with benzo-naphthene compounds.
  • the hydrotreatment of the LCO cut is effected in one or more fixed-bed reactors and the catalytic beds can contain the same or different catalysts.
  • Catalysts based on metal compounds of Group VI and/or Group VIII are normally used, on a carrier, preferably an amorphous carrier, such as, for example, alumina or silico-alumina.
  • Metals which can be used are, for example, Nickel, Cobalt, Molybdenum and Tungsten. Examples of catalysts which can be used and the preparation of the same are described in Hydrocracking Science and Technology, J. Scherzer and A. J. Gruia, Marcel Dekker, 1996.
  • the hydrotreatment is described, for example, in Catalyst Science and Technology, Edited by R. Anderson and Boudart, Volume 11, Sprinter-Verlag of 1996.
  • the hy- drotreating catalysts are used in the form of sulphidation products.
  • the sulphidation can be obtained, for example, by sending a suitable feedstock onto the catalyst with the addition of a sulphidated compound such as dimethyl-disulphide (DMDS) , dimethyl -sulphoxide (DMSO) or other compounds which decompose with the formation of H 2 S.
  • a sulphidated compound such as dimethyl-disulphide (DMDS) , dimethyl -sulphoxide (DMSO) or other compounds which decompose with the formation of H 2 S.
  • the hydrotreatment is preferably effected at a temperature ranging from 200 to 400 0 C, even more preferably at a temperature ranging from 330 to 380 0 C.
  • the pressure nor- mally varies from 20 to 100 bar, preferably between 40 and 80 bar.
  • the space velocity (LHSV) preferably ranges from 0.3 to 3 hr "1 .
  • the H 2 /feedtosck ratio is preferably between 200 and 2,000 Nl/1.
  • the subsequent upgrading step is effected, according to WO 2007/006473, in the presence of a bifunctional catalytic system, comprising one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, Ru and Re and a silico-aluminate of an acidic nature selected from a micro-mesoporous silico-alumina having a suitable composition and a zeolite belonging to the MTW family.
  • a bifunctional catalytic system comprising one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, Ru and Re and a silico-aluminate of an acidic nature selected from a micro-mesoporous silico-alumina having a suitable composition and a zeolite belonging to the MTW family.
  • This process step leads to a substantial improvement in the properties of the hydrotreated LCO, in particular in terms of the cetane index (number) , density and distillation curve, which is a result equivalent to that which can be obtained through the simple hydrogenation of the aromatic structures.
  • this step there is a negligible forma- tion of low-molecular-weight products and lower hydrogen consumptions are necessary with respect to the processes of the known art .
  • This step is carried out in the presence of hydrogen, with a catalytic system including: a) one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re b) a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature selected from a zeolite belonging to the MTW family and a completely amorphous micro-porous silico-alumina having a SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 molar ratio ranging from 30 to 500, a surface area greater than 500 m 2 /g, a pore volume ranging from 0.3 to 1.3 ml/g, an average pore diameter lower than 40 A.
  • a catalytic system including: a) one or more metals selected from Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, Rh and Re b) a silicoaluminate of an acidic nature selected from a zeolite belonging to the MTW family and a completely amorphous micro-porous silico-alumina having a SiO 2
  • This step of the process allows a substantial increase in the cetane index (number) to be obtained, and a decrease in the density and T95 of the hydrotreated LCO blend.
  • the LCO blend thus obtained also proves to be further enriched in alkyl-benzene compounds which at least partially derive from the partially hydrogenated polycyclic aromatic compounds of the benzo-naphthene type, both already present in the LCO cut coming from the particular FCC step of the pre- sent integrated process and also generated during the hy- drotreatment .
  • the catalysts used in this process step direct the process towards the formation of alkyl-benzene structures through the hydro-decyclation of the naphthene ring of naphtho-benzene or dinaphtho-benzene structures, thus obtaining the best possible compromise between hydrogen consumption and improvement in the product properties, at the same time limiting the complete hydrogenation reaction of the aromatic rings and the cracking reaction to form light products.
  • the catalysts used are those described in patent application WO2007/006473.
