Definitions
- Oil pits are applicable in the manufacture of various carbon materials and can be produced in the petroleum industry from a decanted oil filler.
- Pitches in general, are carbon-rich products and are widely used raw materials for the production of a variety of carbon materials, such as: carbon fusion anodes, graphite electrodes for the steel industry, fibers carbon, polygranulated graphite or carbon-carbon composites.
- oil pits have been produced by distillation of a decanted oil, also known as a high aromatic residue, with a BMCI greater than 120 (Bureau of Mines Correlation Index).
- Decanted oil is a residue derived from fluid catalytic cracking units in petroleum refining and is usually reprocessed in refining units for coke production or used as a fuel oil diluent. Therefore, it is an application of greater economic value to obtain oil pits from the distillation of decanted oil.
- Distillation of a decanted oil at temperatures up to 470 ° C shows concurrent reaction mechanisms of the charge constituents, including: thermal cracking, crosslinking, polymerization, polycondensation and oxidation. These reactions lead to increased average molecular weight of the constituents of the oil tar produced, and consequently contribute to the differentiated physicochemical properties of the product.
- anisotropy of oil pits results from reactions that increase the molecular weight of the hydrocarbons constituting the charge, such as polycondensation reactions of smaller molecules into planar and larger aromatic molecules.
- anisotropy is a feature of the raw material, for example useful for spinning high mechanical strength carbon fibers, since anisotropy concerns the existence of large highly oriented domains that contribute to the material properties. manufactured.
- Hydrocarbons constituent of a decanted oil can react in a controlled manner under specific process conditions and produce oil pits with differentiated characteristics: softening point - PA, insoluble in toluene - IT, and insoluble in quinoline - IQ. These properties are usually determined in the laboratory by standardized ASTM D-3104, D-4312 and D-2318 tests, respectively, or equivalent international standards.
- US Patent 4,705,618 teaches a process in which a decanted oil containing less than 5% by weight of quinoline insolubles is heated in a tubular heater under defined pressure, temperature and time conditions. The effluent from the heater is transferred to a distillation column to separate light products and an intermediate pitch from which a binder pitch useful for carbon fiber preparation is obtained.
- US Patent 4,931,162 also teaches a pitching process useful for producing carbon fibers from the distillation of an initial boiling point aromatic residue stream of 390 ° C and mesophase. Distillation under atmospheric pressure generates a residue of at least 5% mesophase which is heat treated in the temperature range 370 to 420 ° C and inert gas for conversion of resins. and obtaining a mesophasic pitch.
- WO2010038026 teaches a decanted oil distillation process to increase yield on binder pits with improved properties.
- the process includes a reflux heat treatment step of the generated volatile products and further distillation in a single step for recovery of an oil residue.
- this process does not enable the production of predominantly isotropic pits with binder tar properties, ie: toluene insoluble in the range 30% to 40% by weight, quinoline insoluble in the range 3% to 25% by weight, and softening point between 100 ° C and 120 ° C, as can be seen from the process described and claimed below.
- Predominantly isotropic oil pits ie with a mesophase content of less than 50%, can be produced by reactions of the petroleum hydrocarbons constituting a preheated, decanted oil filler, which is subjected to alternate stages of heating under reflux and distillation with removal of volatile reaction-generated products until residual products constituting the final product of the process are obtained. .
- a specially configured reactor and vessels are used to recover the generated products, and the reactor consists of a reaction vessel to which they are coupled: an external heating system; a product cooling and condensation system; a direct internal heating system; and a mechanical system for revolving and homogenizing the mass of cargo and waste products generated within the vessel.
- the process described below utilizes a reactor configured to allow selective control of the reactions of the constituents of a decanted oil charge. And, in addition to maximizing oil tar yield, the process also makes production flexible, especially binder pits that have differentiated physicochemical properties, such as: softening point between 100 ° C and 120 ° C, insoluble in approximately 30% by weight toluene and approximately 10% by weight quinoline insoluble.
- Figure 1 presents a macroflow of the process with its steps: (a) preheating of the load; (b) heating under first reflux conditions, generating: gaseous products (G) and residual products (R1); (c) distillation of waste products (R1), generating volatile condensed products (Yc), gaseous products (G) and waste products (R2); (d) reflux heating of waste products (R2), generating: gaseous products (G) and waste products (Rn); (e) distillation of waste products (Rn), generating: gaseous products (G), condensed volatile products (Yc) and waste products (Rn + 1), returning to step (d) until recovering waste products (Rf) which constitute a oil tar (Yp).
- Figure 2 shows reaction temperature (° C) versus time (h) evolution curves for 4 tests (A, B, C and D) illustrating the production of oil pits from a decanted oil OD1.
- Figure 3 shows the reaction temperature (° C) evolution curves as a function of time (h) for 3 tests (E, F and G) that illustrate the production of oil pits from an OD2 decanted oil.
- the process described below enables the production of a predominantly isotropic oil tar with different properties for various industrial applications, including the manufacture of anodes in the aluminum industry and graphite electrodes for the steel industry.
- the oil tar obtained, in particular binder pits has the following differentiated physicochemical properties: softening point between 100 ° C and 120 ° C, toluene insoluble approximately 30% by weight, and quinoline insoluble approximately 10% by weight. pasta.
- the process involves reactions of the petroleum hydrocarbons constituting a decanted oil charge, preferably containing between 30% and 80% by weight of aromatics, and is operated in a reactor configured to allow selective control of the reactions of the charge constituents at pressure. atmospheric, according to its steps:
- step (b) preheating the load to the initial reaction temperature; (b) continuous and uniform heating under first reflux conditions at the initial reaction temperature between 300 ° C and 370 ° C for a time sufficient to promote reactions of the constituent hydrocarbons in the homogeneous liquid phase with reaction of the constituent hydrocarbons; generating: gaseous products that are eliminated; and waste products under reaction conditions; (c) distillation of waste products generated in step (b) to a maximum temperature between 380 ° C and 450 ° C, generating: waste products; gaseous products that are eliminated; and volatile products which are condensed removed in the proportion of 5 to 60% by weight with respect to the charge;
- step b) continuous and uniform heating of waste products generated in the previous distillation step under reflux conditions at a temperature between 5 ° C and 50 ° C below the maximum distillation temperature for a time between 1 and 60 times less than heating in step b), to promote reactions by generating: gaseous products that are eliminated; and waste products under reaction conditions;
- step (e) distillation of waste products generated in step (d) to a maximum temperature between 390 ° C and 485 ° C, generating: gaseous products which are disposed of; volatile products which are removed by condensation; and waste products;
- the decanted oil fill from a fluid catalytic cracking process consists of boiling hydrocarbons greater than 343 ° C, hence the pre-heating of the filler aims at homogenizing and conducting the load under reaction conditions between 300 ° C and 370 ° C.
- volatile products act as a solvent phase for the generated waste products, and as a consequence, the polycondensation reactions of the higher molecular weight molecules are inhibited and cracking reactions are facilitated, minimizing in the first instance the generation of quinoline insoluble products.
- the mass of volatile products withdrawn should be between 5% and 60% by weight relative to the filler and preferably between 5% and 40% by weight.
- the lowering of the temperature should be controlled in order to soften the process conditions, thus inhibiting the reactions that lead to the increase of the softening point of the tar produced. .
- the lowering of The temperature should preferably be controlled in the range of 5 ° C to 30 ° C by the cooling temperature of the volatile products.
- the time of each reflux heating step should be set in the range of 1 to 60 times shorter than that of the initial first reflux step, and preferably 1 to 20 times shorter.
- the repetition of the two steps aims to adjust the physicochemical properties of the recovered oil tar at the end of the process, such repetition can be performed between 1 and 10 times, and preferably between 1 and 5 times, until you get waste products that make up the specified end product.
- the residue is removed and immediately refrigerated in order to interrupt the reactions that could still generate undesirable characteristics, different from those defined for the final product obtained.
- a reactor configured for this purpose must be used, having: a reaction vessel; a heating system external to the reaction vessel; a heating system internal to the reaction vessel for direct heating of the cargo and products generated in the process reactions; and an internal mechanical system for directly revolving and homogenizing the load and products generated in the process steps;
- the reaction vessel shall consist of at least:
- a top outlet adapted to a cooling system to optionally set the reflow conditions for volatile products generated or for withdrawal of gases and volatiles
- the following examples illustrate the process for obtaining oil pits with different properties in tests performed on a Prototype unit with a capacity of up to 75 kg consisting of: a reactor configured for the process, a collection vessel for the generated condensate and a collection vessel for the oil tar residue.
- Figure 2 shows an immediate drop in temperature at the beginning of the second reflux (d) controlled by the cooling rate of the volatile products generated returning to the reaction, influencing the formation of insolubles and the softening point of the final product.
- Figure 2 shows the second reflux (d) with a less severe drop in temperature compared to the drop observed in test B.
- Table 1 Table 1
- test D with higher condensate mass (Yc ⁇ removed in the first distillation stage, showed higher IT results and little increase in PA compared to test A, being a predominantly oil tar. isotropic and with tar binder properties
- test D in the second reflux step there was a slow and larger drop in temperature during reflux, reaching a lower temperature when compared to the drop in temperature in test B, resulting in lower PA temperature rise and lower insolubles under milder process conditions.
- test F it is found that the longer time of a first reflux and the milder temperature condition and the shorter time in the second heating under reflux conditions contribute to a greater decrease of BP when compared to test E, also being observed a small increase of the temperature.
- insoluble in toluene The result of insolubles in the G test shows the production of a binder pitch. The best result in the G test was accompanied by higher insoluble content and small decrease in softening point when compared to the reference E test.
