Method for producing hydrocarbon oil and system for producing hydrocarbon oil

摘要

Hydrocarbon oil obtained by Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis reaction using a catalyst within a slurry bed reactor is fractionated into a distilled oil and a column bottom oil in a rectifying column, part of the column bottom oil is flowed into a first transfer line that connects a column bottom of the rectifying column to a hydrocracker, at least part of the column bottom oil is flowed into a second transfer line branched from the first transfer line and connected to the first transfer line downstream of the branching point, the amount of the catalyst fine powder to be captured is monitored while the catalyst fine powder in the column bottom oil that flows in the second transfer line are captured by a detachable filter provided in the second transfer line, and the column bottom oil is hydrocracked within the hydrocracker.

1. A method for producing a hydrocarbon oil, comprising:
obtaining a hydrocarbon oil containing a catalyst fine powder derived from a catalyst by a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction using a slurry bed reactor in which the catalyst is suspended in a liquid hydrocarbon; fractionating the hydrocarbon oil into at least one distilled oil and a column bottom oil containing the catalyst fine powder using a rectifying column; flowing at least part of the column bottom oil through a second transfer line to capture, using a detachable filter, the catalyst fine powder in the column bottom oil that is flowing through the second transfer line, the second transfer line being branched from a branching point of a first transfer line, provided with the detachable filter at a halfway point, and connected to the first transfer line downstream of the branching point and the first transfer line not having a filter between the branching point and the point where the second transfer line is connected to the first transfer line downstream of the branching point; flowing the remaining column bottom oil through the first transfer line to transfer the column bottom oil to a hydrocracker in a transfer device comprising the first transfer line that connects a column bottom of the rectifying column to the hydrocracker; monitoring an amount of the catalyst fine powder captured by the filter; and hydrocracking the column bottom oil in the hydrocracker.
