Description

[Technical field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202211482757.X, filed on November 24, 2022, and entitled "α-Alkene Extractant and Method for Separating Alkane and α-Alkene," the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of alkene separation, and specifically relates to an α-alkene extractant and a method for separating alkanes and α-alkenes. [Background technology]

[0003] Long-chain α-alkenes are important chemical raw materials and are widely used in the fields of surfactants, oilfield chemicals, alkene copolymers, alcohol plasticizers, lubricants and other fields. Traditionally, due to problems in the production process, the productivity of long-chain α-alkenes is low, and the supply of raw materials cannot keep up with the demand. In the end, the fine chemical industry of long-chain α-alkenes is in short supply and the import price is too high, so they can only import part of it or give up development. Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthetic oil contains abundant long-chain α-alkenes, and the production capacity of coal-based FT synthetic oil is high, so the technical problem that needs to be solved first is to find a method to separate high-purity long-chain α-alkenes from FT crude petroleum products.

[0004] Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is a reaction that uses synthesis gas (CO+H2) as a raw material and the action of a catalyst to produce liquid hydrocarbons, oxygen-containing organic matter, carbon dioxide, water, etc. Fischer-Tropsch synthesis can indirectly convert carbon-containing resources such as coal, natural gas, and biomass into liquid fuels, and is of great practical significance to China's energy structure, which is "rich in coal, short on oil, and rich in natural gas." Wang Yadong et al. stated in the literature that the main products of high-temperature Fischer-Tropsch synthesis include fuel oil, oxygen-containing organic chemical products and alkenes. By using effective separation technology to extract 1-carbon or α-alkenes with a certain carbon number range from alkenes with a high content and continuous carbon number distribution, not only can alkenes be produced instead of traditional processes such as wax cracking, ethylene oligomerization and alkane dehydrogenation, but it is also advantageous for the diversification and development of downstream Fischer-Tropsch products. Separating high-purity long-chain α-alkene from FT synthetic oil not only makes it possible to obtain high-added-value long-chain α-alkene, but also improves the economic efficiency of coal-based FT synthetic oil.

[0005] In the past, the main separation methods include extractive rectification, composite membrane separation, adsorption, etc. Among them, extractive rectification technology combines the advantages of two operations, extraction and rectification, to greatly improve the separation efficiency of alkanes and alkenes. The operation process is to continuously add a high boiling point additive to the top of the rectification tower to change the relative volatility of the components in the liquid matter, making it easier to separate mixtures that are difficult to separate by ordinary rectification. However, most of the extractants used in the conventional extractive rectification method are single organic solvents, which are consumed in large quantities and have a severe impact on the environment due to secondary pollution, or the extractant used is a composite solvent, but the yield of the alkene product is extremely low, which does not meet the yield requirements in actual industrial production. The selection of an appropriate extractant is the key to whether separation can be realized. In the method of separating alkenes and alkanes using a composite membrane, the fabrication cost of the composite membrane is high and the implementation is complicated. The adsorption method has high requirements for the specific surface area and pore volume of the adsorbent, and in the adsorption separation process, the adsorbent is easily deactivated due to the accumulation of harmful substances during feeding, which leads to a decrease in production capacity and an easy adsorption saturation, and the regeneration and desorption processes generally require high temperatures and consume heat. Reactive rectification has strict requirements, for example, the main reaction time compared with the rectification time must not be too long, otherwise the separation capacity of the rectification tower will not be fully utilized.

[0006] In light of this, we propose this disclosure. Summary of the Invention

[0055] The disclosed method for separating alkanes and α-alkenes includes the following steps:

[0056] Preparation of test reagents and equipment: ethanolamine, 2-heptanone, cuprous chloride, extractive distillation column, purification column, heat exchanger.

The extractant is discharged from the bottom of the purification tower 2 through pipe H8, and after being cooled through pipe I9, it is returned to the extractive distillation tower 1 for recycling.

[0059] Here, n=6, and the extractant is compounded in the optimum ratio, i.e., ethanolamine:2-heptanone:cuprous chloride (mass ratio)=1:1:0.2.

The rich solvent containing alkene is extracted from the bottom of the extractive distillation tower 1, and enters the purification tower 2 from the center through pipe F6. The bottom of the tower is supplied with heat by the reboiler, and the alkene and the composite extractant are separated by rectification. The alkene is discharged from the top of the purification tower 2 through pipe G7, a part of it is refluxed to the purification tower 2 from the top, and the other part is extracted. The extractant is discharged from the bottom of the purification tower 2 through pipe H8, and is cooled through pipe I9 and then returned to the extractive distillation tower 1 for recycling.

[0061] Here, n=7, the extractant is compounded in the optimum ratio, i.e., ethanolamine:2-heptanone:cuprous chloride (mass ratio)=1:1:0.2, and the operation parameters of the extractive rectification column are still temperature 86°C, operation pressure 55.3kpa, number of trays 35, feed position of the raw material is tray 25, feed position of the extractant is tray 4, reflux ratio 3.5:1, and mass ratio of the extractant to the raw material is 3:1.
