Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separation of m / 4-ethyltoluene from an aromatic hydrocarbon mixture, and mainly solves the technical problem of difficult separation of m / 4-ethyltoluene from an aromatic hydrocarbon mixture. According to a technical scheme, the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture is introduced into a coarse separation tower, C8 and C8 pre-components are removed from the coarse separation tower top, the coarse separation tower bottom liquid is introduced into a first fine separation tower equipped with double liquid accumulation tanks at the top, a light component containing m / 4-ethyltoluene is led out from the first fine separation tower top into a second fine separation tower equipped with double liquid accumulation tanks, a n-propylbenzene and cumene mixture is led out from the second fine separation tower top, and the m / 4-ethyltoluene product is led out from the second fine separation tower bottom. The method provided by the invention well solves the technical problem, and can be applied to the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture separation field. With double tower top liquid accumulation tanks, batch rectification can be operated under the total reflux condition, thereby reducing the number of theoretical plates of the tower, and the alternating operation of the double liquid accumulation tanks can realize pressure reduced batch rectification.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical industry and relates to a method for separating aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures, in particular to a method for separating m- and p-methylethylbenzene from aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures. Background technique [0002] In addition to triphenyl, the C9 aromatics in the aromatic mixture are also important chemical raw materials, especially m- and p-methylethylbenzene. Its dehydrogenation product, methyl styrene, has a wide range of uses. [0003] At present, the separation of m- and p-methylethylbenzene from C9 aromatics mainly includes catalyst addition rectification and precision rectification. Among them, precision rectification has always been a hopeful research direction for the separation of C9 aromatics because it does not need to add other components and the process is simple. However, due to the small difference in boiling points of the components in C9 aromatics, the number of theoretical plates requi...
