The invention concerns a method and device for thermal removal of coke from the loose mass of granulated selective zeolite catalyst based on crystalline aluminosilicates type pentasil used in the reactor for the production of lower olefins, preferably olefins with 2 or 3 carbon atoms, of a mixture of higher olefins, preferably olefins with 4 to 8 carbon atoms, methanol or dimethyl ether, and at a preliminary stage reactor is washed with a stream of hot nitrogen, on the main stage through the reactor pass oxygen-containing gas with a temperature of 460 to 500°With the purpose of complete removal of coke from the zeolite catalyst, the additional stage reactor is washed nitrogen containing hydrocarbon stream of nitrogen is removed from the reactor.

In European patent application EP-IN-0448000 described a method of obtaining a lower olefins from methanol by conversion of the reaction mixture containing vapors of methanol and/or dimethyl ether and water vapor carried out in a tubular reactor for indirectly cooled catalyst based on crystalline aluminosilicates type pentasil with the atomic ratio of silicon/aluminum constituting at least 10. A similar method is described in German patent application DE-A-19723363.

From German patent application DE-A-19648795 a method of obtaining olepi the s with 3 and 4 carbon atoms of the initial mixture, containing olefins with 4-7 carbon atoms, by turning the mixture at a temperature of from 380 to 700°pellet selective zeolite catalyst based on crystalline aluminosilicates type pentasil as placed in a container of loose weight, and the atomic ratio si/al is in the range from 10:1 to 200:1. Similar zeolite catalyst used in the method of producing olefins with 2 or 3 carbon atoms from a source of hydrocarbon, described in the German patent application DE-A-10000899.

In European patent application EP-A-0359843 describes a method of catalytic conversion of the original substances containing hydrocarbon and hydrogen, in light olefins in a fluidized bed of fine particles of catalyst at a temperature of from 400 to 500°C. to regenerate the catalyst Particles in a fluidized bed with a mixture of air/nitrogen. Before and after regeneration in a fluidized bed introducing the cleaning agent, e.g., nitrogen, with the aim of laundering linked with catalyst particles of the original substance, formed of light olefins, a mixture of air/nitrogen and the resulting regeneration products. The object of U.S. patent US-A-5648585 is a method of isomerization of linear olefins of at least four carbon atoms. The original substance in the presence improves the oxidation of the metal is passed through the stationary layer sintet the ical zeolite. As soon as the particles of zeolite are formed coke deposition, the layer of catalyst is washed with hot nitrogen and/or hydrogen. Then at a temperature not exceeding 490°To carry out the regeneration of the catalyst using oxygen-containing gas; in conclusion, the reactor is washed with nitrogen. European patent application EP-A-0071137 relates to a method of regeneration of catalysts with deposits of coke and/or coke precursors through a gas mixture containing molecular oxygen and water vapor. Catalysts containing more than 50 wt.% United with oxygen, silicon, regenerate at a temperature of from 300 to 450°C. In European patent application EP-A-0909804 describes a method of producing ethylene and propylene by catalytic pyrolysis of heavy hydrocarbons. In the presence of zeolite catalyst type pentasil heavy hydrocarbons are subjected to catalytic degradation using water vapor carried out at a temperature of from 650 to 750°C.

Since the transformation of higher olefins in the lower olefins accompanied by the formation of coke deposits on the particles of the zeolite catalyst, after about 1000 hours of operation zeolite catalyst becomes necessary to remove coke. To this end, as is well known in the reactor it is necessary to introduce heated to a temperature of about 500 With water vapor. By opening the appropriate valve in the reactor serves the air in such quantity that the initial ratio of air and water vapor was about 0.1 (mass ratio). Begins spontaneous burning of coke, further propagating along zakochany sections. Must be under strict control zones possible overheating and, if necessary, to reduce the air flow before the reaction temperature exceeds the maximum allowable value. If zones of overheating are not detected and the process of removing coke stabilized, the air flow rate increases, increasing the ratio of air/water vapor to 0.3. In the process of removing coke temperature in the reactor is maintained at a level of 500°C. In the process of removing coke consumption of supplied air increases in several stages, maintaining a constant flow of water vapor and temperature at the exit of the furnace. At the same temperature at the outlet of the reactor (500° (C) on completion of the removal of coke from the catalyst can be judged by the termination of the temperature increase at the outlet of the reactor. The disadvantage of this method of removal of coke is that water vapor washes away from the zeolite catalyst components containing aluminum, and the resulting changes in the structure then has about the negative impact on the activity of the zeolite catalyst, which in extreme situations can be completely lost.

The present invention is to design the above-described method, to ensure the highest possible conversion of higher olefins in the lower olefins at the lowest possible consumption of zeolite catalyst based on crystalline aluminosilicates type pentasil.

This problem is solved due to the fact that at the preliminary stage, the reactor is washed with a stream heated to the temperature at the inlet of 460 to 500°With nitrogen to push the hydrocarbons from the zeolite catalyst, and then the reactor is cooled to the appropriate stream heated to the temperature at the entrance from 420 to less than 460°With nitrogen, on the main stage passed through the reactor is slowly heated to a temperature input from 460 to 500°With a mixture of nitrogen/air to the complete removal of coke from the zeolite catalyst, and an additional stage reactor is washed by the flow of heated up the temperature at the entrance of 460 to 500°With nitrogen, with the aim of leaching contained in a zeolite catalyst air.

In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention a mixture of nitrogen/air can optionally contain up to 75 vol.%, preferably from 40 to 60 vol.% water vapour.

Depending on the degree of coke formation on predvaritelnaya the catalyst is washed with nitrogen during the period, comprising from 8 to 16 hours, and then cooled with nitrogen during the period of from 1 to 8 hours. Next on the main stage through the reactor in several technological steps through the mix with nitrogen/air, heated at every process stage 5-20°during the period of, respectively, 0.5 to 1.0 hour, and at every process stage maintain a constant temperature mixture of nitrogen/air inlet to the reactor over a period of from 6 to 16 hours, preferably from 8 to 12 hours, if necessary, up to 24 hours.

The air content in the mixture of nitrogen/air ranges from 2 to 10 vol.%, and as the process of removal of coke, at least on the latest technological level, it increases to 50%vol.

Coming out of the reactor stream containing hydrocarbons nitrogen flushing sent for heat treatment, in which process stream removed from the reactor used for cooling of nitrogen discharged into the atmosphere or returned to re-cycle. A large part coming from the reactor a mixture of nitrogen/air return in the reactor and only a small portion is discharged into the atmosphere.

The device for implementing the method according to the invention consists of a heater intended for heating the flow of nitrogen and the flow of the mixture of nitrogen/in the spirit serially connected reactor sequentially attached dust collector, sequentially attached cooler and consistently attached blower.

Special design of the device provides for the availability before the heater heat exchanger, through which pass coming out of the reactor containing the dust is a mixture of nitrogen/air prior to its entering the dust collector.

The invention is illustrated with the aid of the drawing process flow diagram and example of execution.

Upon receipt of ethylene and propylene at the facility for ethylene production in large quantities as by-products are formed olefins with 4 and 5 carbon atoms. These olefins through the implementation of the gas-phase adiabatic reactions on zeolite catalyst (2) based on crystalline aluminosilicates type pentasil placed in granular mass in a horizontal reactor (1)can be converted into olefins with 2 or 3 carbon atoms. According to the invention after about 1000 hours of operation, this catalyst must be regenerated, that is, removal of the covering particles of catalyst coke. To this end, the reactor (1) via the corresponding valve cut off from the rest of the operating reactors. In accordance with the programme of removal of coke on Tr is aprovado (3) to the heat exchanger (4) and further along the pipeline (5) to the heater (6) serves 15.600 m 3/h of nitrogen, where it is heated to a temperature 480°C. Coming out of the heater (6) a stream of nitrogen directed by pipeline (7) into the reactor (1). Containing absorbed hydrocarbons stream of nitrogen is removed from the reactor (1) and pipe (8) is directed to the heat exchanger (4). Emerging from the heat exchanger (4) through the pipeline (9) the flow of nitrogen is directed through the collector (10) and the pipe (11) to the evaporator (12) and then through the pipe (13) to the compressor of the exhaust gas (14). Coming out of the supercharger (14) through line (15) stream of nitrogen through the pipeline (16) is directed to the torch. The duration of the washing of the zeolite catalyst is 12 hours.

Then the reactor (1) for 4 hours, cooled appropriate amount of nitrogen, heated in the heater (4) to the temperature at the inlet to the reactor 440°C. Leaving the reactor (1) a stream of nitrogen through the pipeline (17) return to the circulation loop installation. Order the immediate removal of coke to nitrogen admixed with 5% vol. supplied by pipeline (18) of the air, and the temperature of the mixture of nitrogen/air inlet in the reactor increase in several technological steps (10°at each step)until it reaches 480°s, and temperature, which has the gas mixture at the inlet of the reactor at each of these processing stages, maintain at a constant level is 12 hours. Upon reaching the temperature of the mixture of nitrogen/air inlet in the reactor 480°With the air content in it increases initially up to 25%and then to 50%, and the duration of transmission of each of the respective mixtures is 12 hours. The removal of coke is finished when the temperature rise in the loose mass of the catalyst approaches zero or the consumption of oxygen in the reactor is reduced or completely stopped. The final technological stage, the addition of air stopped, and the reactor (1) for 12 hours, washed with nitrogen to remove oxygen of the zeolite catalyst and reactor.
