Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the deasphalting of residual hydrocarbon oils, such as petroleum distillation residues, residues derived from shale oils or oil sands or them. heavy products of destructive distillation or hydrogenation of coal.
  • residual hydrocarbon oils such as petroleum distillation residues, residues derived from shale oils or oil sands or them. heavy products of destructive distillation or hydrogenation of coal.
  • Residual hydrocarbon oils which contain asphaltic materials, cannot be directly subjected to treatments such as hydrodesulfurization, hydrocracking or catalytic cracking because of their excessive content of asphalt and metals.
  • a difficulty to be overcome is that of the treatment of the asphalt phase rejected during the deasphalting.
  • This phase contains a significant proportion of extraction solvent, but must be separated from it. This is commonly carried out by vaporization of the solvent and / or entrainment by an inert gas such as nitrogen or water vapor; the vaporization of the solvent makes it necessary to supply a significant amount of heat to the asphalt phase.
  • the asphalt phase is passed through an oven heated by a flame (US 2943050, 3423308 and 4017383) although water vapor can be used for propane and certain light mixtures of propane and butane (US 3627675).
  • the temperature of the oven must be higher the heavier the solvent, but the temperature is limited by the tendency of the asphalt to decompose on contact with the walls of the oven. It is assumed that a decomposition of the asphalt occurs from 310 to 330 ° C. However, it is difficult to control the temperature of the walls of an oven. Not only is it not the same at all points in the oven, but also the optimum temperature varies over time depending on the variable nature of the load to be heated.
  • the object of the present invention is to describe a process for deasphalting (demetallization) which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks and makes it possible to treat, without difficulty of fouling and for long periods, residual oils of hydrocarbons by means of hydrocarbons having 4 to 7 carbon atoms, for example isobutane, n-butane, neo-pentane , n-pentane, iso-hexane or C 4 9 C 5 or C 6 cuts.
  • the process comprises bringing the charge of hydrocarbons to be deasphalted into contact with a light hydrocarbon solvent in an extraction (or simple mixing) zone, the quantity of solvent, the temperature and the pressure being chosen so as to allow the formation of 2 distinct phases: a liquid solvent-deasphalted oil mixture and a solvent-asphaltic oil mixture; the phases thus formed are separated from each other, for example by decantation, and the solvent is then separated from each phase by vaporization in order to be able to be recycled.
  • the method is characterized in that a part of the deasphalted oil, substantially separated from the solvent, is passed through a zone of indirect flame heating, so as to raise its temperature, so that it is then brought into contact heat exchange with the solvent-asphalt oil mixture, so as to provide the latter with at least part of the heat necessary for the vaporization of the solvent which it contains, and in that it is finally mixed with the mixture solvent-deasphalted oil discharged from the extraction zone, to which it provides additional heat which facilitates the vaporization of the solvent.
  • the solvent vapor separated by vaporization of the deasphalted oil is brought into heat exchange contact with the solvent-deasphalted oil mixture before the latter receives the deasphalted oil which provides it with the abovementioned supplement. heat.
  • the volume ratio of light hydrocarbon / oil to be deasphalted is usually from 2 to 12, preferably 3 to 5.
  • the temperature depends on the hydrocarbon light used and is usually between 70 and 220 ° C. For example, with pentane, the temperature is usually chosen between 170 and 210 ° C, for example 205 ° C at the top and 195 ° C at the bottom.
  • the temperature to which the deasphalted oil can be brought, in the indirect flame heating zone can be relatively high, for example 250 to 420 ° C, preferably 350 to 400 ° C, without serious risk of fouling of the so-called zone, due to the reduced asphaltenes content of this oil.
  • part of the deasphalted oil, heated by flame, can be used to heat the asphalt as it leaves the vaporizer (s).
  • the invention is illustrated by the attached figure.
  • the load of hydrocarbons containing asphaltenes (line 1) is received in intermediate storage 2, then sent by the. line 3 in column 4, after having received light hydrocarbon coming from line 5. If desired, another portion of light hydrocarbon is introduced at the bottom of column 4 by line 6.
  • This system of supply is of conventional type, like the reheating at the top of the column by the exchanger 7; an interface is established in the column.
  • a mixture of light hydrocarbon and deasphalted oil is drawn off via line 8 and it is passed through exchanger 9 and line 10 to feed the vaporization column 11.
  • the light hydrocarbon vapor is recycled to the pipes 5 and 6 via line 12, exchanger 9, condenser 13 and line 14.
  • the deasphalted oil is withdrawn from column II via line 15.
  • a light hydrocarbon vapor phase is obtained which joins line 14 after passing through line 26 and the condenser 27. It can however be sent, if desired, in whole or in part, to line 12 through line 28, so as to recover its heat in the exchanger 9.
  • the asphalt is withdrawn from column 21 through line 29 and is sent to the drive column 30 to be rid of the last traces of 'light hydrocarbon by means of a stream of water vapor admitted by line 31.
  • the asphalt is discharged by line 32; it can be reheated to make it fluid by passing through the exchanger 33 supplied with part of the deasphalted oil having passed through the furnace 16: this oil passes through line 34, exchanger 33 and line 35.
  • vaporized mixtures of water and light hydrocarbon are obtained. These mixtures can be treated together, together or separately; in the first case, taken as an example, the mixture of line 36 is combined with the mixture of line 37 to pass through the condenser 38 then into the decanter 39. The water is discharged through line 40 and the light hydrocarbon by line 41. The latter can be recycled into the installation by a pipe not shown.
  • the removal of light hydrocarbon from either deasphalted oil or asphalt can be carried out in a single column, for example column II for deasphalted oil and the column 21 for asphalt. In this case columns 23 and / or 30 are not used. It is also possible, in this case, to provide a drive by steam or inert gas in the single column, that is to say in columns II and 21.
  • the hydrocarbon feedstock is treated with n-pentane in pentane / hydrocarbon volume ratio of 4, at a temperature of approximately 175 ° C. at the bottom and 195 ° C. at the head.
  • the overhead effluent (deasphalted oil + solvent) is subjected to a pressure relief and then passes through the exchanger 9 where it undergoes heating.
  • the vaporized solvent leaves at the head and passes into the exchanger 9.
  • the liquid phase of deasphalted oil leaves at 250 ° C.
  • a part is evacuated from the installation after treatment with water vapor (23).
  • Another part passes through the furnace 16, heated with fuel oil, where it is brought to 330 - 380 ° C, then into the exchanger 18 where it is used to bring the temperature of the asphaltic phase from approximately 150 to 300 ° C.
  • the latter is subjected to vaporization, after pressure relief, so as to recover the solvent.
  • the asphalt is entrained by water vapor, intended to remove traces of solvent, then it is removed at a temperature of around 300 ° C. after reheating with part of the deasphalted oil leaving the oven 16.
