Abstract

The present invention relates to an ethylbenzene/styrene energy-saving separation method, and mainly solves the high energy consumption problem of ethylbenzene/styrene separation system industrial devices in the prior art. The ethylbenzene/styrene energy-saving separation method can well solve the problem, the ethylbenzene/styrene energy-saving separation method comprises the following steps: a) a dehydrogenation liquid containing mainly ethylbenzene and styrene enters an ethylbenzene/styrene separation tower T101 to obtain an overhead gas material stream I containing benzene, toluene and ethylbenzene and a tower bottom liquid material stream II containing styrene; b) the material stream I enters an ethylbenzene / water azeotrope evaporator, an external ethylbenzene / water mixture is heated to obtain a heat-exchanged ethylbenzene / water azeotrope material stream III, and the material stream I is condensed and partly collected to enter an ethylbenzene separation tower; c) the ethylbenzene separation tower is divided into two towers (T102A and B) for operation, pressure of the T102A is higher, pressure of the T102B is lower, and a T102A overhead gas phase is used for heating a T102B bottom liquid, and the ethylbenzene/styrene energy-saving separation method can be used for industrial production of ethylbenzene / styrene separation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an energy-saving separation method of ethylstyrene and styrene. Background technique [0002] Styrene is one of the most important basic organic chemical raw materials. It is mainly produced by dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene in industry. It is used for self-polymerization to produce polystyrene and expanded polystyrene, and it can also be produced by copolymerization with other unsaturated compounds. Various products such as synthetic rubber and resin, such as styrene / butadiene copolymer latex, styrene-butadiene rubber and latex, unsaturated polyester and others such as styrene / methyl methacrylate latex, ion exchange resins and drugs, etc. [0003] The key to the rectification part of the styrene production process is the separation of ethylbenzene and styrene. Since the difference between the boiling points of ethylbenzene and styrene is very small, and the difference is only 9°C under normal pressure, the number of theoretic...
