Problems solved by technology

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that in the existing toluene shape-selective disproportionation reaction process, under the process of hydrogen-containing reaction conditions, a large amount of circulating hydrogen after the reaction is discharged out of the reaction system, resulting in a large consumption of supplementary hydrogen.

Embodiment 1

[0025] In this process embodiment, it is assumed that the conversion rate of toluene is 30%, and the supplementary hydrogen contains 92% hydrogen. The following embodiments are the same.

[0026] The reaction aromatics feed containing 99% toluene and the circulating hydrogen containing 90.5% are exchanged through the inlet and outlet materials, and then fed through the heating furnace. The materials enter the reactor containing ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalysts. Then after air cooling, the material is water cooled and the temperature is 25°C, and it enters the gas-liquid separator for separation. The circulating gas phase contains 89% hydrogen, and the circulating hydrogen is not exhausted. The compression cycle is returned to the reaction system, and the liquid phase enters the subsequent liquid phase separation system.

Embodiment 2

[0028] The reaction aromatics feed containing 80% toluene and the circulating hydrogen containing 86.0% are exchanged through the inlet and outlet materials, and then fed through the heating furnace. The materials enter the reactor containing the ZSM-11 molecular sieve catalyst. Then the material is air-cooled and then water-cooled at a temperature of 50°C. It enters the gas-liquid separator for separation. The circulating gas phase contains 81.0% hydrogen, and the circulating hydrogen is not exhausted. The compression cycle is returned to the reaction system, and the liquid phase enters the subsequent liquid phase separation system.

Embodiment 3

[0030] The reaction aromatics feed containing 70% toluene and the circulating hydrogen containing 88.0% are exchanged through the inlet and outlet materials and then fed into the heating furnace. The materials enter the reactor containing ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalysts. Then after air cooling, the material is water cooled and the temperature is 10°C, and it enters the gas-liquid separator for separation. The circulating gas phase contains 86.0% hydrogen, and the circulating hydrogen is not exhausted. The compression cycle is returned to the reaction system, and the liquid phase enters the subsequent liquid phase separation system.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing xylene by shape-selective disproportionation of toluene to mainly solve the technical problem that a lot of recycle hydrogen is discharged out of a reaction system after a reaction under the hydrogen-containing reaction condition and supplemental hydrogen is greatly consumed in the prior art. The method for preparing xylene by shape-selective disproportionation of toluene comprises the following steps: reaction materials toluene and recycle hydrogen pass through a feed-in and feed-out exchanger to be heated so as to form a mixed material I; the mixed material I is heated by a heating furnace and enters a reactor, a material II obtained after a reaction enters a feed-in and feed-out heat exchanger and is cooled, and the material II enters a gas-liquid separator to be separated after being cooled; a gas phase in the upper part of the gas-liquid separator enters a gas-phase circulatory system; the recycle gas phase is mixed with supplemental hydrogen, and the mixture is recycled to the reaction system after pressurization; and a liquid phase in the lower part of the gas-liquid separator enters a subsequent liquid-phase separation system. By the technical scheme, the above problem is solved well. The method can be applied in industrial production of a shape-selective disproportionation reaction of toluene.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing p-xylene by shape-selective disproportionation of toluene. Background technique [0002] Paraxylene (PX) is one of the main basic organic raw materials in the petrochemical industry. It has a wide range of uses in many chemical production fields such as chemical fibers, synthetic resins, pesticides, medicines, and plastics. The typical p-xylene production method is from the thermodynamic equilibrium mixed xylene generated by the catalytic reforming process of naphtha and the toluene disproportionation and transalkylation process through multi-stage cryogenic crystallization separation or molecular sieve simulated moving bed adsorption separation (referred to as Adsorption separation) technology to separate p-xylene from the isomer mixture with a boiling point close to it. For the treatment of ortho- and meta-xylene and ethylbenzene, mixed xylene isomerization (isomerization for short) technology is often...
