摘要: 轻质石油供应日益枯竭，导致对重油等非常规石油资源的依赖日益增加。重油通常含有大量的重馏分沥青质。在重油改质过程中，沥青质会促进高分子量焦炭的形成，这会导致催化剂失活、传热效率降低和管道堵塞等问题。采用加氢处理，能够选择性地去除杂质，实现比其他工艺高得多的液烃收率。然而，沥青质会干扰加氢处理，限制其转化效率。而沸腾床技术能更有效的提高沥青质的转化率。有鉴于此，本综述总结了沥青质转化研究的进展。更具体地说，讨论了沥青质的性质及重油加氢中沥青质的转化。
Abstract: The increasingly depleted supply of light petroleum has led to an increasing dependence on un-conventional petroleum resources such as heavy oil. Heavy oil usually contains a large amount of heavy fraction asphaltene. In the process of upgrading heavy oil, asphaltene can promote the formation of high molecular weight coke, which can lead to catalyst deactivation, reduced heat transfer efficiency, and pipeline blockage. By using hydrogenation treatment, impurities can be selectively removed, achieving much higher liquid hydrocarbon yields than other processes. However, asphaltene can interfere with hydrogenation and limit its conversion efficiency. The fluidized bed technology can more effectively improve the conversion rate of asphaltene. In view of this, this review summarizes the progress of research on asphaltene conversion. More specifically, the properties of asphaltene and the conversion of asphaltene in heavy oil hydrogenation were discussed.
