Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of chemical engineering, and particularly relates to a process for preparing ETBE (Ethyl Tert Butyl Ether) by using a C4 fraction in an etherified liquefied gas as a raw material. A process for preparing the ETBE by using the C4 fraction in the etherified liquefied gas is characterized in that in a synthesis device of ETBE, the raw material C4 and alcohol enter a reactor, isobutene in the C4 and the alcohol generate an etherification reaction under the action of a catalyst to generate ETBE, the reaction materials including redundant alcohol, etherified C4, product ETBE, byproduct dimethyl ether and C8 tertiary butanol are sent to an azeotrope tower so as to be separated, and an ETBE crude product flows out from the bottom of the azeotrope tower. By adoption of a process for producing the ETBE by using the C4 fraction in the etherified liquefied gas as the raw material according to the method provided by the invention, the yield of the ETBE can reach 96 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical industry, and specifically relates to a process for producing ETBE (ethyl tert-butyl ether) by using C4 fraction in post-ether liquefied gas as a raw material. Background technique [0002] The isobutene in C4 undergoes etherification reaction with ethanol to produce ETBE (ethyl tert-butyl ether). Ethyl tert-butyl ether is referred to as ETBE, alias tert-butyl ethyl ether, ethyl tertiary butyl ether, is a high-octane gasoline blending component with excellent performance, and is a legal gasoline improver in the United States (including methyl tert-butyl ether) Butyl ether, ethanol and ethyl tert-butyl ether). [0003] Industrial ETBE is generally produced by the reaction of isobutene and ethanol in mixed C4 under the action of an acidic catalyst. This reaction is an exothermic reaction. The catalysts in industrial production basically use macroporous sulfuric acid ion exchange resins. The side ...
