Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing ethylbenzene by reacting pure ethylene or dry gas with benzene, mainly solving the problems of high dimethylbenzene impurity content in the product ethylbenzene, low ethylbenzene purity, poor catalyst stability and short regeneration period and service life in the process of producing ethylbenzene by reacting pure ethylene or dry gas with benzene in the prior art. In the invention, at least a section of ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst I the SiO2/Al2O3 mol ratio of which is 50-150, and at least a section of ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst II the SiO2/Al2O3 mol ratio of which is 160-300 are loaded in an alkylation fixed bed type reactor; 30-70wt% of pure ethylene or dry gas enters the bed loaded with the catalyst I, and the residual pure ethylene or dry gas enters the bed loaded with the catalyst II; 80-100wt% of benzene enters the first section of the bed loaded with the catalyst I from the top of the reactor, and the residual benzene enters each catalyst bed below section by section; and the difference between the inlet temperature of each section of catalyst bed and the material inlet temperature at the top of the reactor is controlled not to exceed +/-5 DEG C. The technical scheme better solves the problems and can be used in the industrial production of ethylbenzene by reacting the pure ethylene or the dry gas with the benzene.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing ethylbenzene by reacting pure ethylene or dry gas with benzene. Background technique [0002] Ethylbenzene is an important petrochemical raw material, mainly used in the production of styrene, which is the main raw material for the production of polystyrene and other copolymer resins. [0003] Ethylbenzene can be produced by various processes. Traditional catalysts include crystalline and amorphous silica, boron fluoride, alumina, phosphoric acid, aluminum trichloride and solid phosphoric acid catalysts. These traditional catalytic processes have the disadvantages of serious corrosion, large equipment investment, and many wastes. In recent years, people have conducted extensive and in-depth research on molecular sieves, and some companies have been devoting themselves to the new technology of using molecular sieves as catalysts to produce ethylbenzene. One of these, which has achieved significant commer...
