Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a dimethyl ether by applying the fluidization, catalysis and gas phase dehydration to a methanol. The methanol serving as the raw materials contacts with the catalysts in which the Y series is contained in a reactor provided with a riser and a fluidized bed and the reaction between the methanol and the catalysts is carried out on the conditions that the temperature ranges from 150 to 350 DEG C, the weight ratio of the catalysts to the methanol raw materials ranges from 0.001 to 50, the reaction time ranges from 0.1 to 20 seconds and the pressure ranges from 1 to 1000kPa; the bed temperature of the fluidized bed reactor is controlled to be below 350 DEG C and the reactants are separated so as to obtain the coked catalysts and the target products, dimethyl ether; the coked catalysts separated out from a cyclone separator are circulated back to the fluidized bed and part or all of the coked catalysts in the fluidized bed are enter a generator to be subject to the coke burning regeneration with or without being stripped; the regenerated catalysts go back into the reactor so as to contact with the methanol raw materials. The method effectively controls the bed reaction temperature and ensures that the methanol is continuously converted into the dimethyl ether, the conversion rate of the methanol is usually higher than 80 per cent and the selectivity of the dimethyl ether is more than 98 per cent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing dimethyl ether from methanol. 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, high purity of dimethyl ether, mature technology, wide equipment adaptability, and simple post-treatment. , can be directly built in the metha...
