Problems solved by technology

However, the hydrocarbons and water vapor contained in the tail gas of ethylbenzene catalytic dehydrogenation limit the technical feasibility of the hydrogen separation and purification process
The temperature rise of ethylbenzene dehydrogenation tail gas during the compression process and the catalysis of rust in pipelines and equipment can accelerate the self-polymerization of styrene, which has a serious impact on the performance and service life of hydrogen separation equipment
The water vapor contained in the tail gas of ethylbenzene catalytic dehydrogenation is not conducive to the regeneration of the adsorbent, which affects the separation performance and the life of the adsorbent. At present, there is no suitable method for long-term safe and stable treatment of ethylbenzene dehydrogenation tail gas to recover hydrogen

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for recycling hydrogen in ethylbenzene dehydrogenation waste gas and belongs to the field of petrochemical engineering. By the method, styrene and water vapor in the ethylbenzene dehydrogenation waste gas are effectively removed by a deep freezer, an absorbing tower and a gas-liquid separator, possibility of auto-agglutination of styrene is greatly reduced, service life of catalyst of a pressure swing adsorption device is prolonged, and accordingly, hydrogen purity is up to 98%, and recovery rate of the hydrogen is up to 80-90%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recovering hydrogen in ethylbenzene dehydrogenation tail gas, belonging to the technical field of petrochemical industry. Background technique [0002] Styrene is widely used in the production of synthetic materials such as styrene-butadiene rubber, polystyrene, ABS engineering plastics, SAN engineering plastics, and SBS rubber, as well as the synthesis of fine chemical products such as drugs and dyes. It is a very important chemical intermediate. It is mainly produced by catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene and joint oxidation of ethylbenzene / propylene. Except for a few units such as CNOOC-Shell Chemical Company, which adopt ethylbenzene / propylene combined oxidation process, most of them are produced by ethylbenzene dehydrogenation method. [0003] The dehydrogenation reaction of ethylbenzene usually adopts iron oxide-based catalyst and water vapor as the diluent, and is carried out at 580-650°C. The catalyt...
