Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for obtaining of a petroleum product which can possibly be used for the formulation of a fuel for internal combustion engine and the product obtained by the process.
- gas oils that are currently on the market are most often products from refining which contain sulfur in an amount (expressed by weight of sulfur) about 0.3%. They are usually obtained after treatment hydrodesulfurization from a feed which can come from the direct distillation of crude oil or special treatment of a crude oil (e.g. pyrolysis or distillation followed by pyrolysis of the fraction recovered during distillation, or cracking thermal or catalytic) generally containing at least 0.8% by weight sulfur.
- sulfur content standards and cetane are in place or are going to be in place in a very close to come up. These standards are becoming more and more stringent, particularly for diesel fuels intended to be used as fuel for engines. It is as well as in France, in particular from 1995, the sulfur content of these gas oils must not be more than 0.05% by weight (500 ppm) while diesel in accordance with current standards have a sulfur content that can reach 0.3%.
- diesel oils used in France as fuel for engines internal combustion must currently have a cetane number at less than 48 and the gas oils used as fuel an index of cetane at least 40. We can expect in the near future a tightening of these standards and in particular those concerning diesel used as fuel in engines.
- the present invention therefore relates to a simple implementation method, consuming little hydrogen.
- This process uses industrial units hydrotreating (hydrodesulfurization in particular). It improves qualities of the diesel produced and meet future standards and in particular that concerning the sulfur content.
- the method of the invention allows in in addition, to improve the cetane engine index of diesel, to reduce its content aromatic compounds not containing a sulfur heteroatom in their molecule, reduce its content of nitrogen compounds, improve its color and its smell and finally to decrease the formation of solid particles during its use in an internal combustion engine.
- the present invention provides a solution to the specific problem of obtaining, in the most quantity significant possible compared to the starting product, of a petroleum product used in the composition of engine grade diesel or diesel engine from a particular hydrocarbon cut having characteristics which makes it difficult to recover in the form of engine diesel.
- the invention further relates to the process for obtaining a petroleum product. used in the composition of a fuel oil.
- hydrodesulfurization instead of hydrotreatment.
- polyaromatic compounds compounds having at least two aromatic cycles, sulfur or not.
- the initial and final boiling point temperatures are TBP cut.
- the hydrocarbon feedstock which is treated according to the process of the invention is most often referred to as a diesel cutter and it preferably has a point initial boiling point of approximately 150 ° C and a final boiling point of approximately 400 ° C, its sulfur content is usually more than 0.1% and the most often greater than 0.5% by weight, its content of n- and iso-alkanes is about 30 to 45% by weight, its content of aromatic compounds is usually from about 15% to about 65% by weight.
- This charge is the more often a direct distillation diesel, a pyrolysis diesel or a mixture of the two. This charge can advantageously be mixed with a L.C.O.
- the color of this load measured according to the ASTM D 1500 method is usually greater than or equal to 2.
- the cetane number according to ISO 5165 standard of this charge is most often less than about 60 and it is for example from about 50 to about 55.
- the nitrogen content of this feed is very often from about 100 to about 1000 ppm expressed by weight of nitrogen relative to the load weight.
- the product Q1 obtained is a particularly interesting product taking into account all of its characteristics (cut point, cetane, paraffin content and sulfur) to obtain by formulation with other diesel cuts of quality fuels.
- the product (Q1) obtained by the process of the present invention has usually a nitrogen content expressed by weight of nitrogen 2 times less than that of the initial charge and often 4 to 5 times less.
- This product (Q1) has most often a color measured according to the ASTM 1500 standard less than 1 and the cetane number of this product is generally at least 3 higher points and often at least 5 points at the cetane number of the initial charge (for example from 3 to 14 points).
- Its sulfur content compared to that of the load is usually less than or equal to 5% by weight.
- Its net content iso-alkanes generally increases by at least 4 points, advantageously by 5 to 20 points and most often 6 to 11 points, compared to that of the charge.
- the content of aromatic compounds containing no atom sulfur in their molecule in this product (Q1) is usually reduced by at least at least 10% by weight compared to that of the initial charge and often at least minus 30% by weight.
- the odor of this product is less strong than that of initial charge.
- the invention advantageously relates to a petroleum product characterized in that that the distillation cut corresponds to 95% by weight distilled between 320 ° C and 460 ° C, its cetane number is greater than 60, its content of n- and iso-alkanes is at least equal to 48% by weight, and its sulfur content less than or equal to 500 ppm (weight).
- the hydrodesulfurization is advantageously carried out in a hydrodesulfurization unit under mild conditions making it possible to desulfurize the sulfur molecules by hydrogenating as little as possible.
- This approach is not obvious to a person skilled in the art of the 1990s, who is rather led to the solution of severifying the conditions of a hydrotreatment in order to simultaneously decrease the sulfur content and increase the cetane of the charges.
- the temperature is 320 to 370 ° C
- the hourly space velocity is 1 to 5
- the pressure from 1 to 5 MPa the volume ratio H2 on load from 50 to 350 m 3 / m 3 measured under conditions normal.
- the charge dearomatization rate is then at most equal to around 15%. We can thus distinguish two particularly advantageous cases of implementation of this hydrodesulfurization making it possible to obtain an excellent charge for the following extraction step.
- one operates in the presence of a selective catalyst for the hydrodesulfurization of sulfur molecules compared to the hydrogenation of aromatics, adapted to limit hydrogenation, for example one of those marketed by PROCATALYSE, under pressure partial hydrogen at the outlet of the hydrodesulfurization reactor advantageously between approximately 1.0 MPa and approximately 3.0 MPa and recovers a product (P) containing an amount of sulfur from 2 to 30 times less, ie between 0.1 and 0.3% by weight depending on the charge, for example, and most often 3 to 10 times less than that of the initial charge.
- the charge deflavor rate is then significantly less than 10%.
- the other conditions for implementing this hydrodesulfurization step are conventional conditions of a hydrodesulfurization qualified by those skilled in the art of hydrodesulfurization simple and sweet.
- one operates in the presence of a conventional catalyst suitable for limiting hydrogenation, for example one of those sold by the company PROCATALYSE, under partial pressure of hydrogen in hydrodesulfurization reactor outlet advantageously between about 2 MPa and about 5 MPa and recover a product (P) containing 5 to 60 times less sulfur, less than 0.1% by weight, per example between 0.02 and 0.05%, and most often 10 to 40 times less than that of the initial charge.
- P product
- the rate of disaromatization of the load is at most equal to approximately 15%.
- the other conditions of implementation work of this hydrodesulfurization step are conventional conditions more severe hydrodesulfurization.
- This hydrodesulfurization is carried out using a larger volume of catalyst than in the case of simple hydrodesulfurization, for example a volume of catalyst 2 times more important, as well as a higher hydrogen pressure, calculated for perform further hydrodesulfurization.

- This hydrodesulfurization is carried out in the presence of the HR 306C catalyst , under partial pressure of hydrogen of 2.5 MPa, at a temperature of 330 ° C. with a recycling of hydrogen of 200 liters per liter of charge and an hourly space speed of 2.5 h -1 .
- This hydrodesulfurization produces a product having a sulfur content of 0.2% by weight. Its other characteristics are practically unchanged.
- This product can be mixed with household fuel, that is to say introduced into what those skilled in the art call the domestic fuel pool.
