PROCESS FOR RECOVERING VAN ADIUM FROM PETROLEUM H YDROCARBONS.
' No Drawing.
petroleum hydrocarbons, and. refers more particularly to a process in which compounds 6 of vanadium are extracted from petroleum products.
v This application is a continuation in part of a previous application Serial No. 722,309 filed June 25, 1924.
In myprevious application I described a process for recovering vanadium from pctroleum residue such as petroleum coke and heavy residual oils or carbonaceous materials such as cokey substances resulting from the cracking of petroleum hydrocarbons. The
present process has to do primarily with a method of extracting vanadium by consumption of the volatile and oxidizable petroleum products by the action of heat, the
Vanadium being recovered as an oxide or other vanadium compound by deposition.
In my prior application, I described the process of leaching the vanadium compounds from the petroleum residue with a vanadium solvent, but where vanadium is desired to be recovered from certain hydrocarbon oils.
whibh are to be burned as fuel as certain of the heavy Mexican, Ohio or l ersian oils, the hydrocarbon products are practically completely consumed in the combustion of the oil and to recover the vanadium compounds, it is necessary to devise some method of obstructing or retarding the metal compounds by means of a deposit screen or by the use of an absorptive agent such as coke, cinders, activated carbonaceous material, ground or broken up slag, spent shale, diatomaceous earth or other absorptive substances which would serve to extract the vanadium compounds may bedissfil'ved from the absorbent material.
In experimenting with hydrocarbons, it
4 has been my experience that the vanadium compounds are usually more prevalent in the poorer grades of oil, i. e., those oils having a high sulphur content such as the Mexican oils,'particularly Panuco crude, Persian crude and certain of the high sulphur bearing Ohio oils. These oils do not make particularl good cracking stock and are, to
a consi rable extent, used as burning oils vanadium compounds from the combustion gases. Subsequent to this separatign the..-
Application filed September 8, 1925. Serial No. 55,171.
so that the recovery of vanadium compounds is best effected by a the consumption of pounds which mag process in which during the oil vanadium combe carried ofi' mechanically in the form 0 fine particles in the combustion gases, are arrested and deposited in an absorbent body or upon specially preparedwlre screens or any other type of 0bstruction devices which effectively prevent the passage of the metallic Vanadium and a cause the same to be deposited in the'ab'sorbent material to be later recovered by extraction with a solvent.
An absorbent material is used with the best effect by being interposed in the form of a tower in the path of the combustion gases so that the gases are directed through the tower and through the absorbent material in their travel to phere.
Where oils containing vanadium are used in internal combustion engines, such as heavy types of Diesel engines, any vanadium content may be recovered from the exhaust gases by interposing an absorbent body of activated carbon coke or other relatively inert absorbent materials in the exhaust line. The vanadium is normally deposited as a vanadium oxide which is easily dissolved from the absorbent material with a proper solvent.
-Among other absorptive materials which have been found effective in the recovery of this' material are kaolins, such as bauxite,
'- and colloidal clays, including bentonite and metallic vanadium. which may be extracted in a relatively pure state by imply exhausting the hydrocarbon materials from the oil by 'cmnbustion and extracting the metallic vanadium by deposition of the metallic compounds in an absorbent body and subsequently dissolving the metallic compound from the absorbent material.
I claim as my invention:
1. A process for recovering vanadium from petroleum hydrocarbons, consisting in exhausting hydrocarbon products by combustion and collecting the deposited vanadium compounds in an absorptive material.
2. A process for. recovering vanadium from petroleum hydrocarbons, consisting in exhausting hydrocarbon products by combustion and collecting the deposited vanadium compounds in an absorptive material and extracting the vanadium compounds 5 therefrom.
3. A process for recovering vanadium from petroleum hydrocarbons, conslstlng in from the absorptive material with a solvent.
