Description

Device and method for preparing olefin from methanol
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of chemical industry, and particularly relates to a device and a method for preparing olefin from methanol.
Background
The low-carbon olefins such as ethylene, propylene and the like are the most basic chemical raw materials, and particularly, the production capacity of ethylene is one of the marks for measuring the chemical level of a country and a region. At present, the main production modes of ethylene and propylene comprise a cracking technology using petroleum as a raw material, a technology for preparing olefin from methanol, a technology for preparing propylene from methanol, a propane dehydrogenation technology and the like, and industrialization is already formed. The petroleum resources in China are seriously in short supply, and the external dependence of petroleum reaches 60% in 2015, which seriously affects the energy strategic safety in China. The ethylene propylene production route using petroleum base as a source consumes valuable petroleum resources, and the coal resources in China are abundant, so that the development of the coal-based olefin production route has important significance. On one hand, the consumption of petroleum resources is reduced, and on the other hand, the utilization efficiency and the economic value of coal are improved. The technical route of the coal-based olefin is as follows: coal gasification, synthesis gas purification, methanol preparation from synthesis gas, olefin preparation from methanol, olefin separation and olefin polymerization to produce polyethylene and polypropylene. At present, the methanol yield in China is relatively excessive, the methanol market is low, the low-carbon olefin produced by converting methanol can relieve the shortage of the ethylene propylene market and improve the economic benefit of methanol production enterprises.
The preparation of low-carbon olefin by methanol conversion (the preparation of olefin from methanol) usually adopts a silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieve microspherical catalyst, the main active component of which is an SAPO-34 molecular sieve, and the catalyst can generate carbon deposition in the reaction process to block the pore channel of the molecular sieve, so that the catalytic activity of the molecular sieve is reduced. The catalyst needs to be periodically regenerated, the carbon deposit on the surface of the catalyst is burnt, and the activity of the catalyst is recovered. Therefore, methanol to olefins processes all require a reactor and regenerator combination. Various methods and devices for preparing olefin from methanol are reported in domestic and foreign patents, and most of the methods and devices adopt a fluidized bed reactor and a fluidized bed regenerator.
At present, the maximum processing capacity of a methanol-to-olefin device which is operated, built and designed is 180 ten thousand tons of methanol per year, and the olefin production capacity is 60 ten thousand tons per year. The methanol-to-olefin apparatus provided with the carbon tetraolefin cracking or olefin disproportionation has an olefin production capacity of 68 ten thousand tons/year, and cannot achieve a megaton production scale, and cannot further bring the scale benefit and economic benefit of large-scale apparatus into play. Million-ton scale ethylene devices are generally configured for million-ton oil refining devices in petrochemical industry, and a plurality of million-ton ethylene production bases are already built in China. For example, at present, in China, a single set of ethylene device has the largest capacity, namely 90 ten thousand tons of ethylene devices in Shanghai Sico, the yield of the ethylene device is 100 ten thousand tons in 2007, 120 ten thousand tons in 2010 and 129.43 ten thousand tons in the current set of ethylene devices.
The production operation of megaton-level ethylene engineering in petrochemical industry shows that the energy consumption can be reduced and the energy efficiency and the economic benefit can be improved through the large-scale and intensive device. The methanol-to-olefin device generally adopts a fluidized bed reaction regeneration system, and simultaneously, the catalytic cracking device adopting the fluidized bed reaction regeneration system can reach 350 million tons/year in the domestic large scale, such as catalytic cracking devices of Guangxi petrochemical industry, Dalian petrochemical industry and Lanzhou petrochemical industry. The scale of a single set of catalytic cracking unit of the Bei Tang oil refinery reaches 600 ten thousand tons per year.
The process for preparing olefin from methanol and the catalytic cracking process both adopt a fluidized bed reaction regeneration system, and the molecular weight of the raw material of the methanol-to-olefin device is 32 which is far smaller than about 200 of the average molecular weight of the raw material of the catalytic cracking device. Meanwhile, as for the reaction product, the main products of the methanol-to-olefin are ethylene, propylene and other low-carbon hydrocarbons, and according to the reaction principle, the generated water accounts for about half of the composition of the product gas, and the average molecular weight of the product gas is smaller. The main products of the catalytic cracking unit are gasoline (C5-C11 hydrocarbon) and diesel oil (C11-C20), and the average molecular weight is large. Due to the feeding and product gas material properties of the methanol device, the scale of the current methanol-to-olefin device is difficult to further expand. From the large-scale view of equipment, the size of a methanol-to-olefin device reactor is close to the largest fluidized bed reactor size in China at present (the diameter of a regenerator of a 300 ten thousand ton catalytic cracking device is 12 m). This indicates that there are limitations in terms of manufacturing, equipment fluidization and stability from reactor equipment by increasing reactor size under current technology conditions. Therefore, due to the limitation of the processing capacity of the methanol-to-olefin reactor, it is difficult to further significantly increase the scale of the methanol-to-olefin apparatus.

Detailed Description
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments with reference to the attached drawings.
The present application is described in further detail below with reference to specific examples, which should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention as claimed.
As described in the background section, the methanol to olefin plant of the prior art has a problem of insufficient processing capacity.
In order to solve the problem, the invention provides a methanol-to-olefin device, as shown in fig. 1, the device comprises at least two reactors 10, a regenerator 20 and at least two rapid cooling water washing devices 30, wherein each reactor 10 is provided with a spent catalyst outlet, a regenerated catalyst inlet and a product gas outlet; the regenerator 20 is provided with a spent catalyst inlet and a regenerated catalyst outlet, the spent catalyst inlet is respectively communicated with each spent catalyst outlet, and the regenerated catalyst outlet is respectively communicated with each regenerated catalyst inlet; the quench water washing device 30 is arranged corresponding to the reactors 10 one by one, and the quench water washing device 30 is provided with a product gas inlet which is respectively communicated with the corresponding product gas outlets.
Analyzing the principle of the methanol-to-olefin process, the molecular weight of the methanol fed into the reactor 10 is 32, the product gas mainly comprises ethylene, propylene, water, ethane and the like, the methanol-to-olefin reaction is a reaction with increased mole number, and the mole number is increased by 1 to 2 times according to the distribution difference of the products. According to the chemical reaction equilibrium principle, the reaction with increased molecular number and low pressure are beneficial to improving the selectivity of the low-carbon olefin. Increasing the load on the methanol to olefins plant by increasing the pressure will result in a decrease in product selectivity. According to the limitation of reaction conditions (temperature, pressure and residence time), for a device for preparing 60 million tons of olefins from 180 million tons of methanol, the diameter of a dilute phase section of a reactor reaches more than 10m, and the diameter of the reactor needs to be increased, so that the device manufacturing is limited on one hand, and the fluidization quality of the reactor deteriorates along with the increase of the diameter, so that the selectivity of low-carbon olefins is reduced, and meanwhile, the risk of amplification exists in matched devices.
According to the reaction principle of preparing olefin from methanol, the coke yield in the process of preparing olefin from methanol is relatively low, the coke yield of a typical industrial methanol-to-olefin device is between 1.5 and 2.5wt percent, the coke burning load of a 180 ten thousand ton methanol feeding device is between 3 and 6 tons of coke per hour, and the catalyst circulation amount between a reactor and a regenerator is less than 200 t/h. According to the property difference of catalytic raw materials, the coke yield of a catalytic cracking device of 180 ten thousand tons/year is between 5 and 10 percent, the coke burning load is 18 tons per hour calculated according to 8 percent, the coke burning load is far larger than that of a methanol-to-olefin device, and the catalyst circulation volume is over 1000 t/h. Therefore, in the methanol to olefin apparatus, the load of the regenerator is small, the load of the reactor is large, and the corresponding reactor volume is large and the regenerator volume is small. The regenerator load also has a large lift space. The catalyst circulation capacity also has larger lifting space.
Based on the reasons, the device provided by the invention fully utilizes the characteristics of small load of the regenerator, large load of the reactor and small circulation amount of the catalyst in the process of preparing the olefin from the methanol, and a plurality of reactors share one regenerator.
