The invention relates to the technical field of
chemical engineering, in particular to an ethane
cracking device and a start-up emission reduction method.The ethane
cracking device comprises a
cracking workshop section, a compression workshop section and a separation workshop section, the separation workshop section comprises a dethanizing column, a
cold area and a hot area, the dethanizing column serves as a boundary, the top of the dethanizing column is connected with the
cold area, and the bottom of the dethanizing column is connected with the hot area; the
cold area comprises a C2 hydrogenator, a demethanizer, an
ethylene tower, a cold box and a refrigerating
system, a
tower top pipeline of the deethanizer is connected with the C2 hydrogenator, hydrogenated materials enter the cold box to be cooled, one path outputs
hydrogen, the other path is connected with the demethanizer,
methane is output from the
tower top of the demethanizer, the tower bottom is connected with the
ethylene tower,
ethylene is output from the tower top of the ethylene tower, and the refrigerating
system is connected with the refrigerating
system. And the refrigerating system is used for refrigerating the material at the outlet of the C2 hydrogenator, the material at the top and the bottom of the demethanizer and the material at the top and the bottom of the ethylene tower, and the method has the following beneficial effects: not only can the product qualification time of each system after feeding of the cracking furnace be shortened, the start-up emission be reduced, but also the
operation safety can be improved.
