Problems solved by technology

Although this process can obtain 99.99% refined ethylene, there is a problem of ethylene loss due to the removal of light components by the process of stripping distillation tower and the failure to recover the ethylene in the heavy component stream.
The patent (ZL200710040705.64) proposes the method of adiabatic flash evaporation to recover ethylene in the still liquid of the ethylene rectification tower. Although part of the ethylene can be recovered, the recovery efficiency is not high

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a separation and refining method for producing ethylene by dehydrating biomass ethanol. Background technique [0002] Ethylene is an important bulk organic chemical raw material, mainly used to produce polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, ethylene oxide / ethylene glycol, ethylbenzene / styrene, vinyl acetate and other organic chemical products. At present, ethylene production methods at home and abroad are mainly produced by catalytic cracking of petroleum raw materials. In recent years, new breakthroughs have been made in the research on the production of ethylene from non-petroleum raw materials, especially the technology of ethanol dehydration to produce ethylene. This technology is based on ethanol derived from agricultural by-products, which can avoid dependence on petroleum resources. For countries and regions that are poor in oil and dominated by agriculture, the raw materials for ethanol production are easy to obtain and gu...
