Problems solved by technology

The Molex process is limited by the number of fixed beds, and is only suitable for mixed raw materials containing C5-C18 normal paraffins, isoparaffins, naphthenes and aromatics, and the carbon number distribution range is narrow
In addition, the bed switching sequence in the adsorption area is fixed, and the equipment is restricted by the rotary valve, so it is not easy to switch the adsorption area flexibly. In case of emergency, it is necessary to stop the operation of the equipment and carry out maintenance
[0008] In the current Molex process, the length of the pipeline from the rotary valve to each bed of the adsorption tube is long, and the dead volume of the liquid is relatively large. In a mixed system with a small isoparaffin content, it is difficult to perform normal isomerization separation accurately.
In addition, in the normal isomerization mixed system with high carbon number (carbon number N≥16), the viscosity coefficient of the mixture is high, the fluidity is poor, and the number of theoretical plates required for separation is more
The Molex process is limited by the actual building height of the adsorption column, and the number of adsorption beds is limited, which cannot fully meet the theoretical plate number requirements for the separation of high-carbon isomerization, resulting in low product purity.
[0009] The Molex process uses a multi-channel rotary valve, the flow control is not precise, and there will be a little fluctuation. In order to reduce the impact of fluctuation on the separation purity, the equipment is equipped with multiple distributors, which increases the equipment cost and high production cost.
[0010] The existing technical scheme of using simulated moving bed to separate normal isomeric hydrocarbons is only applicable to mixed raw materials containing C5-C18 normal paraffins, isoparaffins, cycloalkanes and aromatics, and the carbon number distribution range is narrow; this technical scheme uses Single or multiple simulated moving beds with 6 to 30 fixed beds, the beds are fixed sequentially by superposition, if the bed fails and cannot be switched, the whole set of equipment needs to be shut down to replace the adsorbent; this technical solution uses 5A molecular sieve adsorbent, which has limitations Sexual applicability is limited

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating normal hydrocarbon and isohydrocarbon by using a simulated fluid bed. The method comprises the steps of inputting a mixture of n-alkanes and isoalkanes with the carbon number of N into a tubular simulated fluid bed for adsorption; and eluting the n-alkanes and the isoalkanes by using an eluent.
