Problems solved by technology

[0003] A hydrogenation of α-methylstyrene using a Reney nickel catalyst in a slurry process was previously disclosed, but due to the loss of aromatic compounds, this process was mostly replaced by a fixed bed process, although the slurry process was effective, But it requires two distillation towers and related equipment, as well as energy for cooling and pressure. In addition, Reney nickel-based catalysts have the disadvantages of excessive hydrogenation to produce undesired by-products and the need for frequent addition of fresh catalysts.
[0004] Selective hydrogenation of methyl-α-methylstyrene using noble metal catalysts such as palladium catalysts has hig

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for selective hydrogenation of methyl-alpha-methyl styrene, which comprises the following steps: in a fixed bed reactor, allowing a feed flow containing methyl-alpha-methyl styrene to contact with a nickel catalyst in the reactor to perform one-step slow hydrogenation so as to convert the methyl-alpha-methyl styrene in the feed flow into isopropyl toluene, wherein the nickel catalyst adopts an alumina/ silica compound as a carrier and adopts metal nickel as an active component. The content of methyl-alpha-methyl styrene in the feed flow is less than or equal to 21 wt%. the hydrogenation conversion rate of the methyl-alpha-methyl styrene is up to 99.9%, and the hydrogenation selectivity is 99.9%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for selective hydrogenation of petroleum hydrocarbons, in particular to a method for selective hydrogenation of methyl-alpha-methylstyrene, which achieves a combination of high conversion rate and high selectivity at relatively low catalyst cost. Background technique [0002] Methyl-alpha-methyl styrene is the main component of the light tar by-product in the production of m-cresol. In the annual production of 12,000 tons of m-cresol and 8,000 tons of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol, The output of light tar by-products is 1.0-1.2 tons / m-cresol and 1.2-1.5 tons / p-cresol, and the light tar by-products are rich in cumene (50-60wt%) and methyl-α-methylbenzene Ethylene (20-30wt%) and light tar by-products are cut and separated, and 88-90wt% of the product is extracted for hydrofining, so that methyl-α-methylstyrene is converted into cumene, and returned to the oxidation unit for oxidation , reproducing m-cresol or p-cresol can ...
