    Hydrogen energy, which is clean and sustainable, is becoming an important part of the future energy systems around the world. Hydrogen energy is also an important technological pathway for achieving global decarbonizaton. Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is one of the most important technical ways for hydrogen energy utilization. Ensuring hydrogen quality is a key factor in the long-term efficient and safe operation of PEMFC. The key to hydrogen quality is the control of impurities in hydrogen. The paper summarizes the requirements of PEMFC for hydrogen quality, introduces the overview of hydrogen detection technology and standards used in PEMFC at home and abroad, and the research progress of SINOPEC Research Institute of Petroleum Processing Co. Ltd.(RIPP) in PEMFC hydrogen impurity detection technology. The pre-concentration coupled GC/SCD/MS scheme developed by RIPP enables simultaneous determination of sulfur-containing compounds, formaldehyde, and organic chlorides in hydrogen gas through a single injection. The detection limits for H2S, formaldehyde, and CH3Cl are 0.01 nmol/mol, 0.1 nmol/mol, and 0.5 nmol/mol, respectively. The proposed GC/TCD/FID scheme can quickly determine He, Ar, N2 and hydrocarbon compounds in hydrogen. The proposed GC-PDHID method for CO2 and CO in hydrogen contains a multi-valves multi-columns system to effectively solve the problem of background interference, with a low detection limit of 50 nmol/mol. Determination of trace ammonia in hydrogen for PEMFC by cavity ring-down spectroscopy was proposed which detection limit was 1.8 nmol/mol. Based on research analytical methods, a series of group and national standards for impurities detection in PEMFC hydrogen had been developed. The methods had been used in impurities tracing source in different hydrogen production processes. A hydrogen energy testing laboratory was established which had been applied in hydrogen quality monitoring for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.

    The choice of processing route for vacuum residue affects the overall economy of refining enterprises. Usually, delayed coking, solvent deasphalting, fixed bed residue hydrotreating, ebullated bed hydrogenation and other single processing routes or their combination processing routes are adopted. A large-scale refining and petrochemical integration enterprise has repeatedly studied and compared the processing route of residue during the configuration design stage of its 2nd phase 20.0 Mt/a crude oil processing complex and determined to adopt the slurry bed hydrocracking route. The second phase of the project was successfully put into operation with high load. The advanced and reliable nature of slurry bed hydrocracking technology for processing deep cut vacuum residue has been verified by such industry application, reflecting the major progress of residue processing technology. By using the high adaptability of slurry bed residue hydrocracking to poor quality heavy inferior feedstock, it is proposed to further optimize the existing residue processing route with the combination of solvent deasphalting, fixed bed residue hydrotreating and slurry bed hydrocracking, which can achieve better economic benefits.

    PETROLEUM PROCESSING AND PETROCHEMICALS    2024, 55 (9): 136-143.  
    Abstract194)      PDF       Save
    Based on the processing parameters of industrial hydrogen production from methanol, a process model of hydrogen production from methanol steam reforming was established by using Aspen Plus software. The reaction thermodynamics of methanol steam reforming was discussed, and the effects of various parameters on energy consumption, material consumption, hydrogen cost, and CO2 emission intensity in the hydrogen production process were analyzed. The results showed that the conversion of methanol increased with the increase of reaction temperature, but the CO selectivity increased and the hydrogen yield decreased. Under the optimum conditions of a temperature of 240 ℃,a pressure of 1.5 MPa, a molar ratio of water to alcohol of 1.8, and a PSA unit H2 yield of 90%, the methanol consumption, comprehensive energy consumption, CO2 emission intensity and hydrogen cost of the process were 5.96 kg/kg, 1 185.98 kgOE/t(1kgEO=41.8MJ), 10.45 kg/kg and 17.46 Yuan/kg, respectively. Higher reaction pressure and PSA unit H2 yield, lower molar ratio of water to alcohol and reaction temperature were beneficial to energy saving and CO2 emission reduction in the process of methanol hydrogen production. The order of influence on hydrogen production by steam reforming of methanol decreases as follows: H2 yield of PSA unit > molar ratio of water to alcohol > the reaction pressure > the reaction temperature.

    Abstract189)      PDF       Save
    Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) technology can convert coal and biomass-based syngas into high-value fuels and chemicals, which is important for achieving efficient use of carbon resources. However, water generated during the reaction process leads to side reactions such as water gas shift (WGS), which will affect the catalyst activity, stability and target product selectivity. By increasing the hydrophobicity of the catalyst, the removal rate of water can be significantly accelerated, the negative impact of water can be reduced, and the performance of FTS reaction can be improved. Focusing on the specific effects of by-product water on FTS reaction, the types of hydrophobic Fischer-Tropsch catalysts, preparation methods and principles of action were outlined, and the prospects for their development were prospected.

    With the transformation of energy structure, the demand and price of refined oil and chemical products in market fluctuate sinusoidally. The existing refining transformation technology is irreversible and the production plan cannot be flexibly adjusted to meet market demand. Controlling single-molecule and bimolecular reaction path at micro scale was an effective method to solve the problem of inflexibility in the transition from refining to chemical industry in FCC process. It was proposed that the bimolecular reaction index could be used as a proportional measure of the occurrence of single-molecule and bimolecular reaction. The reaction temperature and the type of molecular sieve catalyst were two significant variables affecting the yields of liquefied gas and gasoline. The results showed that the yields of gasoline and (propylene + butene) over Y zeolite catalyst at 530 ℃ were 47.55% and 13.31%, respectively, and the yields of gasoline and (propylene + butene) over MFI zeolite catalyst at 580 ℃ were 22.05% and 31.45%, respectively. The relationship between reaction temperature and catalyst type ratio and the yield of target products was obtained, and the idea of flexible switching and adjustment of industrial plant production scheme was proposed to form a flexible and efficient catalytic cracking process. The industrial application results showed that the production scheme switching of (propylene + butene) and gasoline could be completed within a few weeks.

    ZSM-5 zeolite was synthesized by the relay-oriented method of crystal seed and organic template agent, and the obtained ZSM-5 zeolite has similar crystalline structure, morphology, bulk Si/Al ratio, and pore structure to those of ZSM-5 zeolite synthesized by traditional methods. The performance of ZSM-5 zeolite synthesized by the relay method and traditional methods was compared on the reaction with 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene catalytic cracking as probe. The results showed that the conversion of 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene of ZSM-5 zeolite prepared by the relay method was low, which indicated that the surface of ZSM-5 zeolite prepared by the this method was rich in silicon and poor in aluminum. Furthermore, the zeolites synthesized by both methods were used as isomerization catalysts for ethylbenzene isomerization. Under the same reaction conditions, the ethylbenzene conversion of ZSM-5 zeolite prepared by the relay method was higher, but the isomerization activity and xylene loss rate were lower. It can be seen that crystal seed and organic template agent relaying is a feasible method to prepare core-shell molecular sieve with different aluminum content.

    Green methanol has been included in China's encouraged industries for new energy. Green methanol as fuel is currently the main energy source for reducing carbon emissions in shipping. It is also an efficient hydrogen carrier, and the use of green electricity to synthesize green methanol for energy storage can solve the probleum of high hydrogen storage and transportation costs. The technical route and development status of green methanol are summarized, based on which, the development opportunities and challenges of green methanol are analyzed, and suggestions for the development of green methanol in China are given. The production cost of electric methanol mainly depends on the electricity price, while the process route of coupling “bio methanol” with “electric methanol” production may become an effective strategy to reduce the production cost. In China, the development of green methanol should integrate resource advantages and focus on location advantages. At the current stage, the focus can be on developing "low-carbon methanol" derived from carbon dioxide captured from flue gas; in subsequent stages, the possibility of utilizing carbon dioxide from biological sources should be gradually considered. Green methanol can be supplied to international shipping vessels for refueling, gradually replace exported marine fuel, so as to capture market share in green marine fuel.

    NORMAL HEPTANE ISOMERIZATION CATALYZED BY IONIC LIQUID [Et3NH]Cl-AlCl3 PROMOTION BY CIRCULATION OF ISOBUTANE
    PETROLEUM PROCESSING AND PETROCHEMICALS    2024, 55 (6): 9-17.  
    Abstract163)      PDF       Save
    Light hydrocarbonisomerization usually takes C5 and C6 hydrocarbons as feedstocks, and C7+ hydrocarbons in the process of isomerization are prone to a relatively severe cracking reaction, resulting in low yield of isomerized oil. As a novellow-temperature catalyst, ionic liquid has also poor adaptability to macromolecular hydrocarbon feedstocks.Therefore, in the process of macromolecular hydrocarbon isomerization, inhibiting side reaction and improving the yield of isomerized oil during the isomerization of larger hydrocarbons have been the difficulty and focus of research. Based on the mechanism of the alkane isomerization catalyzed by ionic liquid, isobutane criculation can inhibit side reaction and promote the isomerization reaction, which served to reduce the content of C4 alkanes in the isomerization product and increase the yield of isomerized oil. The influence of process conditions such as the addition amount of isobutane, reaction temperature, reaction time, stirring rate and acid-to-alkane ratio on the n-heptane isomerization catalyzed by chloroaluminate ionic liquid was systematically studied. The results showed that the circulation of isobutane significantly decreased the yield of the by-product C4 components. The reason was that the substantial presence of isobutane in the system could significantly accelerate the rate of hydrogen transfer during the reaction, effectively inhibit the secondary reactions such as cracking and disproportionation. Under the conditions of an isobutane dosage of 30%, a reaction temperature of 50℃,a reaction time of 1 h,a stirring speed of 1500 r/min and an acid-to-alkane ratio of 1, the n-heptane conversion reached 91.0%, with isomeric hydrocarbon selectivity and liquid yield of 87.2% and 93.5%, respectively. Compared to those of the reaction system without isobutane, the isomeric hydrocarbon selectivity and liquid yield of the reaction system with isobutane at similar conversion rate of n-heptane increased by 16.0 percentage points and 14.8 percentage points, respectively.
