[0025] figure 1 It is a typical schematic diagram of the preparation of high-purity isobutene. After MTBE is first refined through MTBE refining tower 1, it enters cracking reactor 2 to carry out cracking reaction under suitable operating conditions. The cracked product enters water washing tower 3, and the bottoms of water washing tower enter methanol recovery tower 4 and methanol refining tower 5 in turn. Methanol is recovered, and the crude isobutene product from the overhead of the water washing tower enters the isobutene de-weighting tower 6 and the isobutene de-lightening tower 7 in sequence, and finally the target product is obtained.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing polymer-grade isobutene by cracking methyl tertbutyl ether. The method comprises the following steps: cracking methyl tertbutyl ether so as to obtain a cracking product, then processing the cracking product in a bath tower so as to obtain an isobutene crude product, and finally carrying out absorption separation on the isobutene crude product in an absorption tower so as to obtain the polymer-grade isobutene product; wherein the absorbent in the absorption tower is a mixture of an LTA molecular sieve, amorphous silicon-aluminum, and an FAU molecular sieve. The method provided by the invention can effectively remove the impurities such as dimethyl ether, methanol, water, polyisobutene, and the like from the isobutene crude product, can also reduce the investment and energy consumption, and is capable of enabling equipment to obtain a polymer-grade isobutene product on the basis of easier operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cracking methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) to produce polymer grade isobutylene. Background technique [0002] Isobutene is an important organic chemical raw material. When isobutene is used as the main raw material to produce downstream products, the requirements for the purity of isobutene are different due to different products, especially for the production of polymer grade isobutene, the requirements are higher. [0003] A large part of the production of polymer grade isobutylene is to meet the needs of synthetic butyl rubber. In recent years, with the increase in the consumption of butyl rubber inner tubes, radial tires, medical bottle stoppers, and waterproof materials, the consumption of butyl rubber has been increasing, especially in China. According to the "2010-2015 China Synthetic Rubber Industry Investment Analysis and Prospect Forecast Report" issued by China Investment Consulting, the apparent consump...
