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

Abstract

The invention relates to a separating and refining method for preparing ethylene by dehydrating biomass ethanol, which is mainly used for solving the problems that a process for separating a product in preparation of ethylene from dehydrating ethanol and a way for increasing the yield of the ethylene are not related in the previous literatures, particularly the technical problem of the recovery of the ethylene from light-component material flow and heavy-component materials. According to the separating and refining method disclosed by the invention, the technical scheme of a three-tower flow is adopted to well solve the problems. According to the technical scheme, the method comprises the following steps: separating ethylene-containing heavy components out of the tower kettle of an ethylene refining tower, feeding the ethylene-containing heavy components into the top of a stripping tower, separating ethylene containing light components out of the tower top, and feeding to the middle part of a light-component tower; returning a vapor phase on the top of the stripping tower to the middle lower part of the ethylene refining tower, and discharging heavy components from the tower bottom; and partially condensing top material flow of a light-component refining tower, refluxing a liquid phase, and discharging a gas phase to obtain an ethylene product from the tower kettle. The method can be applied to industrial production of ethylene prepared by dehydrating ethanol.

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...
