Abstract

ABSTRACT

Octane and total yield improvement in catalytic cracking processes can be attained by the addition to conventional cracking catalysts of very small amounts of additive catalyst comprising a zeolite having a silica to alumina mole ratio greater than 12 and a constraint index of about 1 to 12. The weight ratio of the zeolite of the additive catalyst to the amount of active component, e.g. faujasite zeolite, in the conventional cracking catalyst ranges from between about 1:400 and about 1:15.

Description

~ 1153~3 OC~A~E IMPROVEME~

I~ CATA~YTIC CRACKI~G

This invention relates to a catalytic cracking process yielding gasoline of increased octane number.

It is known that improved results will - be obtained in catalytic cracking of gas oils if a crystalline zeolite having a pore size of less than 7 Angstrom units is used together with a crystalline zeolite having a pore size greater than 8 Angstrom units, either with or without a matrix. A di~closure of this type is found in U.S. Specification 3,769,202. Although the incorporation of a crystalline zeolite having a pore size of less than 7 Angstrom units into a catalyst composite comprising a larger pore size crystalline zeolite (pore size greater than 8 Angstrom units) has indeed been very effective with respect to the raising of octane number, nevertheless it did so at the expense of the overall yield of gasoline.

Improved results in catalytic cracking with respect to both octane number and overall yield are described in U.S. Specification 3,758,403, in which a cracking catalyst comprises a large pore size crystalline zeolite (pore size greater than 7 Angstrom units) in admixture with ZSM-5 type zeolite wherein the ratio of ZSM-5 tgpe zeolite to large pore size crystalline zeolite is in the range of 1:10 to 3:1.
~ .

~!~

li539~3 The use of ZSM-5 type zeolite in conjunction with a zeolite cracking catalyst of the X or Y faujasite variety is also described in U.S. specifications 3,894,931; 3,894,933; and 3~894,934, the first two disclosing the use of ZSM-5 type zeolite in amounts up to and about 5 to 10 weight percent, the third disclosing a weight ratio of ZSM-5 type zeolite to large pore size crystalline zeolite in the range of 1:1 0 to 3:1.

We have now discovered that only miniscule amounts of additive catalyst comprising a zeolite such as ZSM-5 class zeolite are required to achieve improved results with respect to octane number and overall yield, particularly yield of C5+ gasoline and alkylate.

According to the present invention there is provided a cracking process, in which an inventory of cracking catalyst comprising an amorphous or zeolitic active component traverses a circuit which includes a regenerator and a reactor in which latter it contacts hydrocarbon feed under cracking conditions, this inventory further comprising a zeolite having a contraint index o~ 1 to 12 and a silica to alumina mole ratio of at least 12, the weight ratio of said zeolite to said active component being from 1:400 to 1:15, preferably from 1:200 to 1:40. The preferred zeolite which the inventory futher comprises is ZSM-5, -11, -12, -23, -35 and/or ZSM-38, whilst the active component of the circulating cracking catalyst is typically silica-alumina or zeolite Y.

~i 1153g~3 The invention will frequently be practised in the ~CC process, in which the catalyst is in fluidi~ed form. Whether the process is ~CC
or not, however, the zeolite may be added to said inventory while the inventory traverses the circuit, in one embodiment together with fresh make-up cracking catalyst. Advantageously the zeolite is in the form of a composite with a - matrix, in which ca$e from l.0 to lO00 ppm of platinum, palladium, iridium, osmium, thodium, ruthenium and/or rhenium may be incorporated in the composite, such incorporation being one way of providing for the presence of 0.1 to 100 ppm of such metals in the circulating of inventory and thereby promoting combustion of carbon monoxide to the dioxide in the regenerator.

Whereas previously it was believed that up to about 10 weight percent additive catalyst was required to boost octane number, it has now been discovered that only a miniscule amount of said additive catalyst will bring forth similar beneficial results. The totally unexpected discovery of this invention will be of great significance in the field of petroleum refining.

The improved process of this invention affords the refiner great flexibility in catalytic cracking operation, since only a very small quantity of additive catalytic can quickly boost the octane number of the product. The need for only very small quantities of said additive catalyst also results in great savings in catalyst usage and thus in more economic refinery operations.

1153~'~3 ~he additive catalyst can be introduced to the cracking process at any time and at any point for quick octane improvement. It has been found that only about O.l to 0.5 wt.% of additive zeolite added to the conventional cracking catalyst in the unit under conventional cracking operations can increase octane by about l to 3 RO~ + O (research octane number without lead); however, greater amounts of said class of zeolites will increase the octane number even further.

Octane increase can be varied with the content of the additive catalyst. If excess alkylation capacity is available, C5+ gasoline plus alkylate yields are higher when the additive catalyst is utilized as compared to conventional commercial cracking catalysts, without sacri~icing the octane increase.

Since the zeolites of the additive catalyst are very active catalytically in the fresh state, only very small quantities are necessary to obtain substantial octane improvement in a commercial cracking unit.~ Thus the refiner is afforded great flexibility i~ commercial cracking operation, since the additive catalyst can be quickly introduced, because such a small quantity is required as compared to the total inventory of catalyst. The refiner can efficiently control the magnitude of octane increase by controlling the rate of additive catalyst. This type of flexibility could be useful in situations where feed composition or rate changes occur, when demand for high octane gasoline (unleaded) fluctuates, .. , i~ i 11539~

or when capacity for alkylation varies due to mechanical problems or changes in overall refinery operation. In commercial practice, the octane gain could be maximized or controlled to operate at maximum light gas handling capability or full alkylation capacity. The exact weight percent will vary from crakcing unit ~o cracking unit depending on the desired octane number, total gasolilne yield required, the available feedstock and the content of active component in the conventional cracking catalyst.

~ he additive catalyst can be injected at any time during the catalytic cracking process.
The additive catalyst can be introduced while the cracking unit is down, or while the cracking unit is on stream operation. Once the additive catalyst i8 added to the cracking process, the refiner can return to conventional operation or an operation at lower octane number by eliminating or decreasing the use of additive catalyst. Thus the increase in octane number of the number obtainable under conventional cracking operations can be controlled by controlling the amount of additive catalyst.

Catalytic cracking units which are amenable to the process of this invention operate within the temperature range of about 400F to l300F and under reduced atmopheric or superatmospheric pressure. The catalytic cracking process may be operated batchwise or continuously.
The catalytic cracking process can be either fixed bed, moving bed or fluidized bed and the hydrocarbon charge stock flow may be either concurrent or ' 11~3973 countercurrent to the conventional catalyst flow.
The process of this invention is particularly applicable to the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process.

In a typical FCC unit the circuit which the catalyst traverses may include a riser reactor a dense bed of catalyst separated therefrom, a stripper zone a regenerator dense bed a regenerated catalyst standpipe, a conduit for transfer of catalyst from stripper to regenerator and the catalyst material suspended in dilute phase and cyclones in the reactor section and the regenerator section. The circulating inventory of a catalyst is substantially above about 600F, since the regenerator opera~es at a termperature higher than about l000F, usually in the range of about 1050F
to about 1250F, and the reactor at higher than 800F.

Because the catalytic activity of the circulating inventory of catalyst tends to decrease with age fresh makeup catalyst, usually amounting to about 1 or 2% of the circulating inventory, is added per day to maintain optimal catalyst activity, with daily withdrawal (and losses) of about like amount of aged circulating inventory. This catalyst makeup is usually added via a hopper (fresh catalyst storage hopper) and conduit into the regenerator.

It is a feature of the present invention that the additive catalyst may be introduced in the form of particles distinct from those of the cracking .~ .

li~3g'~3 catalyst itself in an FCC process, without disrupting the operation of the process, at almost any convenient point. Preferred points of injection are into the regenerated catalyst standpipe, the separated catalyst dense bed, the stripping zone or into the spent catalyst transfer conduit or the regenerator, particularly the regenerator dense bed. The additive catalyst may also be injected into the hot catalyst storage hopper or mixed with fresh catalyst in the fresh catalyst storage hopper, or other vessel before addi tion to the unit.

The amount of additive catalyst required to increase gasoline octane number is generally based on the total quantity of conventional cracking catalyst in the unit i.e. on the circulating inventory of conventional cracking catalyst. ~or example, if the additive catalyst is first introduced via the addition of fresh makeup catalyst, the amount of zeolite constituent in the additive catalyst required would be quite high if compared against the amount of fresh makeup catalyst added. However, after a period of time of fresh makeup catalyst addition, and once the amount of zeolite in the additive catalyst is maintained at the prescribed limits as compared to the circulating inventory of conventional cracking catalyst, the amount of said zeolite in the fresh makeup catalyst addition will be much lower than initially.

A recent advance in the art of catalytic cracking is disclosed in U.S. Specification 4,072,600, one embodiment of which teaches that 11539t~3 trace amounts of a metal selected from the group consisting of platinium, palladium, iridium, osmium, rhodium, ruthenium, and rhenium when added to cracking catalysts enhance significantly conversion of carbon monoxide during the catalyst regeneration operation. In employing this recent advance to the present invention, the amount of said metal added to the conventional cracking catalyst can vary from between about 0.01 ppm and about 100 ppm based on total catalyst inventory.
The aforesaid metals can also be introduced into the process via the additive catalyst in amounts between about 1.0 ppm and about 1000 ppm based on total additive catalyst.

Hydrocarbon charge stocks undergoing cracking in accordance with this invention comprise hydrocarbons generally and, in particular, petroleum fractions having an initial boiling point range of at least 400F, a 50% point range of at least 500F and an end point range of at least 600F.
Such hydrocarbon fractions include gas oils, residual oils, cycle stocks, whole top crudes and heavy hydrocarbon fractions derived by the destructive hydrogenation of coal, tar, pitches, asphalts and the like. As will be recognized, the distillation of higher boiling petroleum fractions above about 750~ must be carried out under vacuum in order to avoid thermal cracking. The boiling temperatures utilized herein are expressed in terms of convenience of the boiling point corrected to atmospheric pressure.

The preferred zeolites of Constraint Index 1 to 12 to be employed according to his invention are zeolites ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-23, ZSM-35 and ZSM-38, defined respectively by the X-ray diffraction data presented in U.S.
Specifications 3,702,886, 3,709,979, 3,832~449, 4,076,842, 4,016,245 and 4,046,859.

~ atural zeolites may sometimes be converted to this class of zeolites by various activation procedures and other treatments such as base exchange, steaming, alumina extraction and calcination, alone or in combinations. Nautral minerals which my be so treated include ferrierite, brewsterite, stilbite, dachiardite, epistilbite, heulandite and clilnoptilolite. ~he preferred zeolites of the additive catalyst are ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-23, ZSM-35 and ZSM-38, with ZSM-5 particularly preferred.

~he zeolites used as additive catalysts in this invention may be in the hydrogen form or they may be base exchanged or impregnated to contain a rare earth cation complement. Such rare earth cations comprise, Sm,-Nd, Pr, Ce and ~a. It is desirable to calcine the zeolite after base exchange.

In a preferred aspect of this invention, the zeolites comprising the additive catalysts herein are selected as those having a crystal framework density, in the dry hydrogen form, of not substantially below about 1.6 grams per cubic centimeter. ~he dry density for known structures ~ .

11~39~3 may be calculated from the number of silicon plus aluminum atoms per 1000 cubic Angstroms, as given, e.g., on page 19 of the article of Zeolite Structure by W.M. Meier. This paper is included in Proceedings of the Conference on Molecular Sieves, London, April 1967, published by the Society of Chemical Industry, ~ondon, 1968. When the crystal structure is unknown, the crystal framework density may be determined by classical pycnometer techniques.

The additive catalysts of this invention may be prepared in various ways. The additive catalyst may be separately prepared in the form of particles such as pellets or extrudates, for example, and simply mixed in the required proportions. The particle size of the individual component particles may be quite small, for example for about 20 to about 150 microns, when intended for use in fluid bed operation, or they may be as large as up to about 1/2 inch for fixed bed operation. Or the components may be mixed as powders and formed into pellets or extrudate, each pellet containing both components in substantially the required proportions.

As is the case of many catalysts, it is desirable to incorporate the zeolite component of the additive catalyst in a matrix. Such matrix is useful as a binder and imparts greater resistance to the catalyst for the severe temperature, pressure and velocity conditions encountered in many cracking processes.

''!

11539~3 Matrix materials include both synthetic and natural substances. Such substances include clays, silica and/or metal oxides. The latter may be either naturally occurring or in the form of gelantinous precipitates, sols or gels including mixtures of silica and metal oxides. ~requently, zeolite materials have been incorporated into naturally occurring clays, e.g. bentonite and kaolin.

In addition to the foregoing materials, the zeolite for use herein can be composited with a prous matrix material such as silica-alumina, silica-magnesia, silica-zirconia, silica-thoria, silica-beryllia, silica-titania, as well as ternary compositions such as silica-alumina-thoria, silica-alumina-zirconia, silica-alumina-magnesia and silica-magnesia-zirconia. The matrix can be in the form of a cogel. A mixture of clay in combination with silica or any of the above specified cogels to form a matrix is highly ~ preferred.

Convential cracking catalysts contain I active components which may be zeolitic or non-zeolitic. The non-zeolitic active components are generally amorphous silica-alumina. However, the major conventional cracking catalysts presently in use generally comprise a crystalline zeolite (active component) in a suitable matrix.
Representative crystallilne zeolite active component constituents of conventional cracking catalysts include zeolite A (U.S. Patent 2,882,243), zeolite - Z (U.S. Patent 2,882,244), zeolite Y (U.S. Patent 53~3 3,130,007), zeolite ZK-5 (U.S. Patent 3,247,195), zeolite ZK-4 (U.S. Patent 3,~14,752), synthetic mordenite and dealuminized synthetic mordenite, merely to name a few, as well as naturally occurring zeolites, including chabazite, fauj~site, mordenite, and the like. Preferred crystalline zeolites include the synthetic faujasite zeolites X and Y, with particular preference being accorded zeolite Y.

The crystalline zeolite employed as a constituent in the cracking catalyst compositions of the present invention is essentially characterized by a high catalytic activity.

The crystalline zeolites are ordinarily ion exchanged either separately or in the final catalyst with a desired cation to replace alkali metal present in the zeolite as found naturally or as synthetically prepared. The exchange treatment is such as to reduce the alkali metal content of the final catalyst to less than about 1.5 weight percent and preferably less than about 0.5 weight percent. The purpose of ion exchange is to substantially remove alkali metal cations which are known to be deleterious to cracking, as well as to introduce particularly desired catalytic activity by means of the various cations used in the exchange medium. For the cracking operation described herein, preferred cations are hydrogen, ammonium, rare earth and mixtures thereof, with particular preference being accorded rare earth.
Ion exchange is suitably accomplished by conventional contact of the zeolite with a suitable salt solution of the desired cation such as, for example, the sulfate9 chloride or nitrate.

'~?
, It is preferred to have the crystalline zeolite of the cracking catalyst in a suitable matrix, since this catalyst form is generally characterized by a high resistance to attrition, high activity and exceptional steam stability.
Such catalysts are readily prepared by dispersing the crystallilne zeolite in a suitable siliceous sol and gelling the sol by various means. The inorganic oxide which serves as the matrix in which the above crystalline zeolite is distributred includes silica gel or a cogel of silica and a suitable metal oxide. Representative cogels include silica-aIumina, silica-magnesia, silica-zirconia, silica-thoria, silica-beryllia, silica-titania, as well as ternary combinations such as silica-alumina-magnesia, silica-alumina-zirconia and silica-magnesia-zirconia.
Preferred cogels include silica-alumina, silica-zirconia or silica-alumina-zirconia. The above gels and cogels will generally comprise a major proportion of silica and a minor proportion of the other aforementioned oxide or oxides.
Thus, the silica content of the siliceous gel or cogel matrix will generally fall within the range of 55 to 100 weight percent, preferably 60 to 95 weight percent, and the other metal oxide or oxides content will generally be within the range o~ 0 to 45 weight percent and preferably 5 to 40 weight percent. In addition tothe above, the matrix may also comprise natural or synthetic clays, such as kaolin type clays, montmorillonite, bentonite or halloysite. These clays may be used either alone or in combination with silica or any of the above specified cogels in matrix formulation.

~.. ~ ' .
-J~

Where a matrix is used, content ofcrystalline zeolite, i.e. the amount of zeolite Y
component, is generally between about 5 and about 50 weight percent. Ion exchange of the zeolite to replace its initial alkali metal content can be accomplished either prior to or subsequent to incorporation of the zeolite into the matrix.

The above compositions may be readily processed so as to provide fluid cracking catalysts by spray drying the composite to form microspheroidal particles of suitable size. Alternatively, the composition may be adjusted to suitable concentration and temperature to form bead type catalyst particles suitable for use in moving bed type cracking systems. The catalyst may also be used in various other forms such as those obtain by tabletting, balling or extruding.

The following examples will serve to illustrate the invention.

11~3 EXAMPI.E 2 The additive catalyst containing ZSM-5 was prepared by spray drying 25 wt.% ZSM-5 (low sodium type, commercially manufactured) in a seimisynthetic matrix containing 69.75 wt.% silica, 5.25 wt.~ A1203 and 25 wt.% kaolin clay. The ZSM-5 employed had a silica to alumina ratio of 63.4, a sodium content of 0.02 weight percent, a nitrogen content of 1.41 weight percent and a carbon content of 5025 weight percent. The spray dried catalyst was column exchanged with a 5%
aqueous ammonium sulfate solution and then water washed substantially free of sulfate. The washed product was then further exchaneed with a 1%
aqueous solution of rare earth chloride, water washed substantially free of chloride and dried at 250F for at least 16 hours. The catalyst was analyzed chemically and found to contain (dry basis) 85.25~ SiO2, 14.2~ A1203, 0.015~ Na, 0.45,~ RE203.

11~3973 The results of Examples 3 to 6 as shown in Tables 2 to 6 clearly indicate the outstanding efficacy of the catalytic cracking process of this invention. The effect of ZSM-5, as evidenced by the catalytic data in Tables 2 to 5, is to improve gasoline octane by recracking low octane gasoline components to C~ and C4 compounds and a small amount of coke. Octane increase, at least initially, is about 1 RON+O for each 2 vol.% C5+ gasoline loss.

As shown in Table 6, an efficiency expressed as the ratio of the increase in C5+
gasoline octane to C5+ gasoline yield loss decreases with increasing amounts of ZSM-5. The exact amount of ZSM-5 necessary to obtain maximum efficiency may vary with unit design, operating variables and especially feedstock variations.
When potential alkylate yield is included in the gasoline analysis, total gasoline yield increases for all the amounts of ZSM-5 additive catalysts by 0.5 to 2.5 volume percent compared with the base catalyst, while still maintaining a 1 to 2 RON+O
advantage.
