Patent Description:
Methanol-to-olefin technology (MTO) mainly includes DMTO (methanol-to-olefin) technology of Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and MTO technology of UOP Company of the United States. In <NUM>, the Shenhua Baotou methanol-to-olefin plant using DMTO technology was completed and put into operation. This is the world's first industrial application of MTO technology. As of the end of <NUM>, <NUM> DMTO industrial plants have been put into production, with a total production capacity of about <NUM> million tons of light olefins per year.

In recent years, DMTO technology has been further developed, and a new generation of DMTO catalysts with better performance have gradually begun in industrial applications, creating higher benefits for DMTO plants. The new generation of DMTO catalyst has higher methanol processing capacity and light olefin selectivity.

The MTO technologies generally adopt an SAPO-<NUM> molecular sieve catalyst, and the high selectivity for light olefins in an MTO process is achieved by the combination of the acid catalysis of the molecular sieve with the restriction of pores in a framework structure of the molecular sieve. A methanol conversion process is also accompanied by a coking process of an acidic molecular sieve catalyst. The existing MTO plants can achieve a methanol coking rate of <NUM> wt% to <NUM> wt%, that is, <NUM>% to <NUM>% of carbon (C) atoms in methanol are converted into coke in the catalyst, and the coke is burned in a regenerator to generate CO, CO<NUM>, H<NUM>O, and the like that are discharged, with a C utilization rate only of <NUM>% to <NUM>%. With the advancement of technologies, the selectivity for light olefins in an MTO process has been greatly improved, but the high methanol coking rate and the low C utilization rate have become bottlenecks inhibiting the advancement of technologies. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new MTO technologies to improve the C utilization rate and the atomic economy.

The <CIT> discloses a method for raising the light olefin yield in process of preparing a light olefin using an improved oxygen-containing compound. More specifically, the present invention provides a method for using an oxygen-containing compound to prepare a light olefin, using as a reactor a multi-stage dense phase fluidized bed containing k secondary precoking zones (k≥<NUM>) and n secondary reaction zones, and using as a main equipment a multi-level dense phase fluidized bed regenerator containing m secondary regenerators (m≥<NUM>); by means of re-refining the hydrocarbons above C4 obtained from the separation stage, or the method of adding, in a reaction zone, naphtha, gasoline, condensate oil, light diesel oil, hydrogenated tail oil, or kerosene, the invention primarily solves the problems in the prior art of the uniformity of catalyst carbon deposition and carbon content being difficult to control, and light olefin yield being low. However, the method and the system mentioned in this prior art document still need improvement, as the control of the average residence time and residence time distribution of the catalyst should be more efficient.

An MTO process is accompanied by a coking process of an acidic molecular sieve catalyst, such that coke species are formed in molecular sieve cages, triggering a catalytic process of MTO. The coking of the catalyst makes some active sites of the molecular sieve covered to reduce the activity of the catalyst, but the coke in the molecular sieve further limits pores in a framework structure of the molecular sieve to improve the selectivity for light olefins.

The light olefins mentioned in the present application refer to ethylene and propylene. The applicants have found through research that main factors affecting the activity of a DMTO catalyst and the selectivity for light olefins include coke content, coke content distribution, and coke species in the catalyst. Under the same average coke content in catalysts, the narrower the coke content distribution, the higher the selectivity and activity of light olefins. Coke species in a catalyst may include polymethyl aromatic hydrocarbons, polymethyl cycloalkanes, and the like, where polymethylbenzene and polymethylnaphthalene can promote the formation of ethylene. Therefore, the control of the coke content, coke content distribution, and coke species in a catalyst is the key to control an operation window of the DMTO catalyst and improve the selectivity of light olefins.

A coke content in an MTO spent catalyst is generally <NUM> wt% to <NUM> wt%, and a too-high coke content will greatly reduce the activity of the catalyst. At present, MTO plants generally adopt an air regeneration method to restore the activity of a catalyst, thereby recycling the catalyst; and in this process, the coke is burned in a regenerator to generate CO, CO<NUM>, H<NUM>O, and other substances, which are discharged. In fact, the coke in spent catalysts can be divided into two categories: coke with a large molecular weight, a high graphitization degree, and no catalytic activity, which can be called inactive coke; and polymethyl aromatic hydrocarbons and polymethyl cycloalkanes with a small molecular weight and catalytic activity, which can be called active coke. When air is used as a regeneration medium, due to the strong oxidizability of air, inactive coke and active coke undergo a deep oxidation reaction with oxygen to mainly generate substances such as CO, CO<NUM>, and H<NUM>O, and it is difficult to realize the controllable conversion of coke and control the coke content, coke content distribution, and coke species in the catalyst. Therefore, when air is used as a regeneration medium and a coke content in a catalyst is < <NUM> wt%, the sufficient catalytic activity of the catalyst can be restored in the case where most coke is oxidized and eliminated. A regenerated catalyst obtained by this regeneration scheme shows low selectivity for light olefins, high methanol coking rate, and high methanol unit consumption. When water is used as a regeneration medium, active coke reacts with water, large-molecule species are converted into small-molecule species, and under suitable conditions, active coke can be converted into species mainly composed of polymethylbenzene and polymethylnaphthalene. When a combination of water and oxygen is used as a regeneration medium, under the action of oxygen and water, inactive coke and active coke are converted into oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species and oxygen-free hydrocarbon species with a small molecular weight, where oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species do not have catalytic activity. The oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species can be converted into oxygen-free hydrocarbon species with catalytic activity under the action of substances such as water vapor, hydrogen, methane, ethane, and propane.

Therefore, the present application provides a controllable activation method for converting a spent catalyst into a regenerated catalyst, where the regenerated catalyst has the characteristics of high activity, high selectivity for light olefins, and the like, and can reduce the methanol unit consumption and methanol coking rate and improve the atomic economy of the MTO technology.

Process operating conditions can be changed to control an average residence time of a catalyst in the first activation zone, thereby controlling a coke content in the catalyst. The structure of n first activation zone subzones is adopted to control a residence time distribution of a catalyst (the residence time distribution is similar to n serially-connected completely-mixed tank reactors), and thus a regenerated catalyst with a narrow coke content distribution can be obtained.

In the present application, since the catalyst is powdery, the coke content in the catalyst refers to an average coke content in catalyst granules, but coke contents in different catalyst granules may actually be different. In the present application, the quartile deviation of the coke content distribution in the regenerated catalyst can be controlled to be less than <NUM> wt%, such that the overall coke content distribution of the catalyst is narrow, thereby improving the activity of the catalyst and the selectivity for light olefins.

In the fluidized bed regenerator of the present application, an activation process of a catalyst includes two steps: S1. water vapor and oxygen are used as an activation gas to convert the inactive coke and active coke in the spent catalyst into oxygen-containing hydrocarbons species and oxygen-free hydrocarbon species with a small molecular weight, where the oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species show no catalytic activity and S1 is completed in the first activation zone; and S2. water vapor is used as an activation gas to convert the catalytically-inactive oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species in the coke into catalytically-active oxygen-free hydrocarbon species and further reduce the molecular weight of coke, that is, the coke in the catalyst is converted into species mainly composed of polymethylbenzene and polymethylnaphthalene, where S2 is completed in the second activation zone. In S1, the activation gas used can decompose the inactive coke due to strong oxidizability, but leads to the generation of some catalytically-inactive oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species; and in S2, a non-oxidative activation gas is used to further convert the catalytically-inactive oxygen-containing hydrocarbon species into catalytically-active oxygen-free hydrocarbon species. After the two-step activation, coke species in the regenerated catalyst are mainly polymethylbenzene and polymethylnaphthalene, with high selectivity for ethylene.

In the fluidized bed regenerator in the present application, a regeneration process of a catalyst is the coupling of an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction, where the first activation zone raw material and the coke in the catalyst react in the first activation zone to generate substances such as CO and H<NUM>, and the release of heat raises a temperature of the bed; and the second activation zone raw material and the coke in the catalyst react in the second activation zone to generate substances such as CO and H<NUM>, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, and the heat required by the reaction is supplied by the exothermic reaction in the first activation zone.

In the present application, the main components in the regenerator product gas are CO, H<NUM>, and a small amount of CO<NUM>, where a total content of CO and H<NUM> is greater than <NUM> wt% and a content of CO<NUM> is less than <NUM> wt% (dry basis, excluding the unconverted H<NUM>O); after the regenerator product gas is subjected to simple separation, a mixed gas of CO and H<NUM> can be obtained, and the mixed gas of CO and H<NUM> can be recycled as a raw material for methanol preparation; and thus, in the technical solution of the present application, the coke generated from methanol is an intermediate product of this process, and the utilization rate of C atoms in the whole process is greater than or equal to <NUM>%.
