Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, the ethanol dehydration process consumes a lot of energy, and some side reactions also occur during the dehydration reaction. The utilization rate of ethanol is low, and the increase in investment and operating costs reduces the advantage of cheap and easy-to-obtain ethanol raw materials.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for synthesizing ethylbenzene, and mainly solves the problems that ethylene must be taken as a raw material, the cost of the raw material is high and the content of dimethylbenzene is high in the product ethylbenzene in the conventional ethylbenzene production process. The method comprises the following steps that: a) benzene and ethanol enter an alkylation reactor loaded with a ZSM-5 nanoscale molecular sieve catalyst in a molar ratio of (2-8):1 under gas phase conditions and react to form a mixture 103 comprising benzene, ethylbenzene, diethylbenzene and water; b) the mixture 103 sequentially passes through a benzene recovery tower, an ethylbenzene recovery tower and a polyethylbenzene recovery tower so as to separate the water, the benzene, the ethylbenzene and the diethylbenzene from the mixture 103; and c) the partial benzene and diethylbenzene which are obtained through the separation enter a transalkylation reactor in a weight ratio of (2-10):1 under liquid phase conditions and are contacted with a Beta molecular sieve catalyst for a transalkylation reaction so as to generate the ethylbenzene. The technical scheme better solves the problems; in the scheme, the ethylbenzene is synthesized by using the ethanol as the raw material instead of the ethylene, the cost of the raw material is low, and the content of the dimethylbenzene in the product ethylbenzene is low; and the technical scheme can be used for the industrial production of the ethylbenzene.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for synthesizing ethylbenzene, which mainly solves the problems that the previous ethylbenzene production process must rely on ethylene as a raw material, the raw material cost is high, and the content of xylene in the product ethylbenzene is high. Background technique [0002] Ethylbenzene is an important chemical raw material and an indispensable key raw material for the production of styrene. Most ethylbenzene manufacturers produce ethylbenzene for the production of styrene in their own styrene plants. About 90% of the ethylbenzene is used Production of styrene. Styrene is an important basic organic chemical raw material, mainly used in the field of polymer materials to prepare polystyrene and its copolymers, such as ABS, AS, styrene butadiene rubber and its unsaturated polyester. In addition, styrene is used as an organic reaction Intermediates are also widely used in the pharmaceutical, coating, pigment and textile in...
