INTEGRATED PROCESS FOR HYDROCARBON SYNTHESIS

摘要

1. Process for producing liquid hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock which comprises the following steps: (i) catalytically reforming at least part of the hydrocarbonaceous feedstock at elevated temperature and pressure with steam in at least one reforming zone; (ii) heating the reforming zone (s) by means of a carbon dioxide containing heating gas comprising a product obtained by partial oxidation of reformer product obtained in step (i) and carbon dioxide depleted light product obtained in step (vi) with an oxygen-containing gas in an oxidation zone; (iii) separating carbon dioxide from cooled down heating gas obtained in step (ii); (iv) catalytically converting at least part of the carbon dioxide depleted gas stream obtained in step (iii) at elevated temperature and pressure into normally liquid hydrocarbons; (v) separating product stream obtained in step (iv) into a light product comprising mainly unconverted synthesis gas, inerts and light hydrocarbons and a heavy product comprising mainly normally liquid and solid hydrocarbons; (vi) separating carbon dioxide from light product obtained in step (v); and (vii) combining at least part of the carbon dioxide feed obtained in step (iii) and/or step (vi) with hydrocarbonaceous for step (i). 2. Process according to claim 1, in which step (i) is carried out in a heat exchange steam hydrocarbon reforming reactor, especially a multitubular reactor comprising tubes filled with catalyst. 3. Process according to claim 1 or 2, in which step (ii) is carried out in a partial oxidation reactor, and in which the total reformer product obtained in step (i) is subjected to partial oxidation in step (ii). 4. Process according to any of claims 1 to 3, in which part of the hydrocarbonaceous feedstock of step (i) is subjected to partial oxidation in step (ii) together the other reactants. 5. Process according to any of claims 1 to 4, in which substantially pure oxygen is applied in step (ii). 6. Process according to any of claims 1 to 5, in which substantially all carbon dioxide is removed from the cooled down heating gas obtained in step (ii), and in which in step (vi) substantially all carbon dioxide is removed from the light product obtained in step (v). 7. Process according to any of the preceding claims, in which at least 50 % vol, preferably at least 70 % vol, more preferably at least 90 % vol, of the carbon dioxide obtained in step (iii) is used in step (vii), and in which at least 50 % vol, preferably at least 70 % vol, of the carbon dioxide obtained in steps (vi) is used in step (vii). 8. Process according to any of the preceding claims in which process no carbon dioxide is recycled to the partial oxidation process of step (ii). 9. Process according to any of the preceding claims in which hydrogen-containing gas is recovered from product gas obtained in at least one of steps (i)- (vi), preferably one of steps (i)- (iii), more preferably step (iii). 10. Process according to claim 9, in which at least part of the recovered hydrogen is used is step (iv) or for the work-up of the heavy product obtained in step (v).
