    Description
    Title of the invention: TWO-STEP HYDROCRACKING PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF NAPHTA
    INCLUDING A HYDROGENATION STAGE IMPLEMENTED
    WORK BEFORE THE SECOND HYDROCRACKING STAGE Technical area
    The invention relates to a two-stage hydrocracking process for eliminating heavy polycyclic aromatic compounds (HPNA) without reducing the yield of recoverable products.
    Hydrocracking processes are commonly used in refineries to transform hydrocarbon mixtures into easily recoverable products. These methods can be used to transform light cuts such as, for example, essences into lighter cuts (LPG). However, they are usually rather used to convert heavier charges (such as heavy petroleum or synthetic cuts, for example gasoils from vacuum distillation or effluents from an Eischer-Tropsch unit) into petrol or naphtha, kerosene, diesel .
    Certain hydrocracking processes also make it possible to obtain a highly purified residue which can constitute excellent bases for oils. One of the effluents particularly targeted by the hydrocracking process is the middle distillate (fraction which contains the diesel cut and the kerosene cut), that is to say cuts with an initial boiling point of at least 150 ° C. and with a final boiling point lower than the initial boiling point of the residue, for example less than 340 ° C, or even less than 370 ° C. The Light Essence cup (having an initial boiling point above 20 ° C and a final boiling point below 80 ° C), or “Light Naphta” according to English terminology, and the Heavy Essence cup (having a point initial boiling above 70 ° C and a final boiling point below 250 ° C), or "Heavy Naphtha" according to English terminology, are also sought for uses in fuel bases or for petrochemicals, and certain hydrocracking processes are adapted to maximize the production of the “Heavy Naphtha” cut.
    Hydrocracking is a process which derives its flexibility from three main elements which are, the operating conditions used, the types of catalysts used and the fact that hydrocracking of hydrocarbon feedstocks can be carried out in one or in two stages.
    In particular, the hydrocracking of vacuum distillates or DSV makes it possible to produce light cuts (Diesel, Kerosene, Naphtas, ...) more valuable than the DSV itself. This catalytic process does not entirely transform the DSV into light cuts. After fractionation, there remains a more or less significant proportion of fraction of unconverted DSV called UCO or UnConverted Oil according to the English terminology. To increase the conversion, this unconverted fraction can be recycled at the inlet of the hydrotreating reactor or at the inlet of the hydrocracking reactor in the case where it is a hydrocracking process in 1 step or at the inlet of a second hydrocracking reactor treating the fraction not converted at the end of the fractionation step, in the case where it is a hydrocracking process in 2 stages.
    It is known that the recycling of said unconverted fraction from the fractionation step to the second hydrocracking step of a 2-step process leads to the formation of heavy aromatic (polycyclic) compounds called HPNA during the cracking reactions and thus to the undesirable accumulation of said compounds in the recycling loop, leading to the degradation of the performance of the catalyst of the 2nd hydrocracking step and / or to its fouling. A purge is generally installed on the recycle of said unconverted fraction, in general on the line at the bottom of the fractionation, in order to deconcentrate the recycle loop into HPNA compounds, the purge flow being adjusted so as to balance their formation flow. In fact, the heavier the HPNA, the more they tend to stay in this loop, to accumulate, and to get heavier.
    However, the overall conversion of a two-stage hydrocracking process is directly linked to the quantity of heavy products purged at the same time as the HPNAs. This purge therefore leads to a loss of recoverable products which are also extracted with the HPNAs via this purge.
    Depending on the operating conditions of the process, said purge can be between 0 and 5% by weight of the unconverted heavy fraction (UCO) relative to the incoming DSV mother charge, and preferably between 0.5% and 3 %weight. The yield of recoverable products is therefore reduced accordingly, which constitutes a significant economic loss for the refiner.
    Throughout the rest of the text, the HPNA compounds are defined as polycyclic or polynuclear aromatic compounds which therefore comprise several fused benzene rings or rings. They are usually called PNA, Polynuclear Aromatics according to Anglo-Saxon terminology, for the lightest of them, and HPA or HPNA, Heavy PolyNuclear Aromatics according to Anglo-Saxon terminology, for compounds comprising at least seven aromatic rings (such as for example Coronene, compound with 7 aromatic rings). These compounds formed during undesirable side reactions, are stable and very difficult to hydrocrack.
    Prior art
    There are various patents which relate to methods which seek to specifically address the problem associated with HPNAs so that they do not harm the method both in terms of performance, cycle time, and operability. .
    Some patents claim the elimination of HPNA compounds by fractionation, distillation, solvent extraction or adsorption on a capture mass (WO2016 / 102302, US8852404 US9580663, US5464526 and US4775460).
    Another technique consists in hydrogenating the effluents containing the HPNAs in order to limit their formation and accumulation in the recycle loop.
    US Pat. No. 3,929,618 describes a process for hydrogenating and opening the hydrocarbon charge cycles containing polycyclic hydrocarbons condensed in the presence of a catalyst based on NaY zeolite and exchanged with Nickel.
    US Pat. No. 4,931,165 describes a one-step hydrocracking process with recycle comprising a hydrogenation step on the gas recycle loop.
    The patent US4618412 describes a hydrocracking process in one step in which the unconverted effluent from the hydrocracking step containing HPNA is sent in a hydrogenation step on a catalyst based on Per and alkali or alkaline earth metals, at temperatures between 225 and 430 ° C before being recycled in the hydrocracking step.
    The patent US5007998 describes a hydrocracking process in one step in which the unconverted effluent from the hydrocracking step containing HPNA is sent in a hydrogenation step on a zeolitic hydrogenation catalyst (zeolite with pore sizes between 8 and 15 A) also comprising a hydrogenation component and a clay.
    The patent US5139644 describes a process similar to that of patent US5007998 with coupling to a step of adsorption of HPNA on an adsorbent.
    US Pat. No. 5,364,514 describes a conversion process comprising a first hydrocracking step, the effluent from this first step then being split into two effluents. Part of the effluent from the first hydrocracking step is sent to a second hydrocracking step while the other part of the effluent from the first hydrocracking step is sent simultaneously to a hydrogenation step d aromatics using a catalyst comprising at least one noble metal from group GVIII on an amorphous or crystalline support. The effluents produced in said hydrogenation and second hydrocracking stage are then sent in the same separation stage or in dedicated separation stages.
    The patent application US2017 / 362516 describes a hydrocracking process in two stages comprising a first hydrocracking stage followed by the fractionation of the hydrocracked stream producing an unconverted effluent comprising HPNA which is recycled and called recycle stream. This recycle stream is then sent in a hydrotreatment step which allows saturation by hydrogenation of the aromatic HPNA compounds. This hydrotreatment step produces a hydrogenated stream which is then sent to a second hydrocracking step.
    The essential criterion of the invention of US2017 / 362516 lies in the fact that the hydrotreatment step allowing the hydrogenation of HPNA is located upstream of the second hydrocracking step. The hydrotreating step and the second hydrocracking step can be carried out in two different reactors or in the same reactor. In the case where they are carried out in the same reactor, said reactor comprises a first catalytic bed comprising the hydrotreating catalyst allowing the saturation of the aromatics, followed by catalytic beds comprising the second stage hydrocracking catalyst.
    The hydrotreating catalyst used is a catalyst comprising at least one metal from group GVIII and preferably a noble metal from group VIII comprising rhenium, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, silver, l ' osmium, iridium, platinum and / or gold, said catalyst possibly optionally also comprising at least one non-noble metal and preferably cobalt, nickel, vanadium, molybdenum and / or tungsten, preferably supported on alumina. Other zeolitic catalysts and / or unsupported hydrogenation catalysts can be used.
    The research carried out by the applicant led him to discover an improved implementation of the hydrocracking process which makes it possible to limit the formation of HPNA in the 2nd stage of a hydrocracking scheme in 2 stages and therefore increasing the cycle time of the process by limiting the deactivation of the hydrocracking catalyst. Another advantage of the present invention makes it possible to minimize the purging and therefore to maximize the recoverable products and in particular the yield of naphtha.
    The present invention lies in the implementation of a hydrocracking process in 2 stages for the production of naphtha, comprising a hydrogenation stage placed upstream of the second hydrocracking stage, the stage of hydrogenation treating the unconverted liquid fraction separated in the distillation step in the presence of a specific hydrogenation catalyst. In addition, the hydrogenation and second hydrocracking stages are carried out under specific operating conditions and in particular under very specific temperature conditions with respect to one another.
