Abstract

A preparing method of isobutene using tert-butyl alcohol is characterized in that a fixed bed is applied as a rector for the dehydration of tert-butyl alcohol, reaction products are separated in a rectifying tower, the condenser in the tower top is a partial condenser, liquid phase is almost in infinite reflux state, only a few is collected to prevent enrichment of 8 carbon byproduct in the tower, steam phase isobutene is collected and transformed into liquid phase isobutene product after being deeply cooled in the condenser, another product water is collected from the tower bottom, and the mixture of tert-butyl alcohol and water close to azeotropic composition is collected from the lateral line to return to the fixed bed reactor. The reactor and the rectifying tower in the invention combine as a system, wherein complete reaction of tert-butyl alcohol and separation of products can be achieved through adjusting operations of rectifying tower. Water is collected from column bottom, andhigh purity isobutene is collected from tower top. The method is characterized by low investment of equipment, convenient filling of catalyst and easy operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for preparing high-purity isobutene by dehydrating tert-butanol. Background technique [0002] Isobutene is an important basic organic chemical raw material. High-purity isobutylene is mainly used to prepare various organic chemical raw materials and fine chemicals such as butyl rubber, polyisobutylene and methacrylate. So far, there are three main production methods of high-purity isobutene: adsorption separation method, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) cracking method and tert-butanol dehydration method. Adsorption separation is a technology to produce isobutene by utilizing the difference in the adsorption capacity of n-butene and isobutene on molecular sieves. This method is suitable for the production of high-purity n-butene and also for the production of high-purity isobutene, but because the process of this method is relatively complicated, the technical economy of producing high-purity isobutene is not as good...
