Abstract

Disclosed is a combined hydrocarbons catforming method to produce dimethyl ether from carbinol. Carbinol raw materials contact with Y zeolite catalysts and the reaction product flow is separated to get coked catalysts and target carbinol; hydrocarbon raw materials contact with Y zeolite catalysts and the reaction product flow is separated to get spent catalysts and reaction effluent and the reaction effluent is further separated to get gas and liquid products such as gasoline; all or part of the coked catalysts or spent catalysts get into a reactivator for coke-burning regeneration; the regenerated catalysts are divided into two parts, one part returns to contact with the hydrocarbon raw materials and the other part, after cooling, returns to contact with the ethanol raw materials. The method properly uses the surplus heat energy in the course of hydrocarbons catalytic conversion, solving the problem of heat energy supply in carbinol conversion, ensuring that the carbinol can be converted to dimethyl ether continuously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing dimethyl ether from methanol, more specifically, the invention belongs to a method for producing dimethyl ether from methanol through combined catalytic conversion of hydrocarbons. Background technique [0002] There are one-step and two-step methods for the production of dimethyl ether (DME). The one-step method refers to the one-time synthesis of dimethyl ether from the raw material gas; the two-step method is to synthesize methanol from the synthesis gas, and then dehydrate to obtain dimethyl ether. [0003] The two-step method is carried out in two steps, that is, methanol is first synthesized from synthesis gas, and methanol is dehydrated under acid catalysis to produce dimethyl ether. The two-step synthesis of dimethyl ether is the main process for the production of dimethyl ether at home and abroad. This method uses refined methanol as a raw material, with few by-products of dehydration reaction, ...
