Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of cracking C4 treatment, and specifically relates to a pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction device and a pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction method. Background Art
[0002] Regardless of whether the DMF method or the acetonitrile method is adopted, the butadiene extraction device extracts butadiene through a two-stage extraction and C4 refining process. Taking the DMF method as an example, a typical process is as Figure 1 shown. The first-stage extraction separates monoolefins and alkanes from diolefins and alkynes. The second-stage extraction further separates diolefins and alkynes to remove alkynes. The water washing system removes the solvent, and the refining system removes light and heavy components. Due to the two-stage extraction process, the traditional butadiene extraction device has a long process flow, high energy consumption and investment.
[0003] With the development and maturity of the selective hydrogenation catalyst, first removing the alkynes in the cracked C4 raw material through the selective hydrogenation system, and then producing butadiene through extraction and refining not only improves the utilization efficiency of the raw material, increases the economy of the device, but also can cancel the second extraction tower and the second stripping tower, saving about 10% - 15% of the energy consumption of the whole device. And the selective hydrogenation system is an exothermic reaction, with a small amount of additional energy consumption. Therefore, on the premise of ensuring that the alkyne removal rate and the butadiene loss rate are controlled within a reasonable range, coupling the selective hydrogenation system with the traditional butadiene extraction device will greatly improve the economy and environmental protection of the device, reduce the comprehensive energy consumption of the device, and increase the comprehensive utilization value of C4.
[0004] There are two key steps in the pre-hydrogenation technology. The hydrogenation reactor ensures the selectivity and conversion rate of alkynes through the catalyst and operating conditions, while reducing the loss of butadiene; through the process flow, heavy components (heavy components affect the polymerization of diolefins and alkynes) and purge gas can be removed before the C4 raw material enters the extraction device. CN101172929 realizes the function of removing purge gas through a de-light tower, but does not remove heavy components, and the reaction uses a palladium-based expensive catalyst, with low economic benefits. At the same time, this process does not provide a reflux setting, the reaction temperature rise is large, which affects the performance of the catalyst and is not conducive to long-term operation.

[0065] Table 1 Composition of cracked C4 raw material
[0066] Phase state Liquid phase Component unit wt% Allene 0.01 n-Butane 12.70 Isobutane 0.72 1-Butene 11.49 Isobutene 16.52 cis-2-Butene 2.57 trans-2-Butene 3.66 1,3-Butadiene 50.10 1,2-Butadiene 0.52 Methylacetylene 0.19 Water 0.00 Ethylacetylene 0.26 Vinylacetylene 1.040 C5 0.187 Isoprene 0.018 Cyclopentadiene 0.019 Molecular weight 55.100
[0067] In the selective hydrogenation system, vinylacetylene in the unsaturated components of the cracked C4 raw material can be converted into butadiene and a small amount of butene-1, and butyne can be converted into butene-1 to obtain a butadiene-rich C4 product. The effective removal rate of vinylacetylene (the product of the selectivity and conversion rate of producing butadiene) is 99.95 wt%. The loss rate of butadiene in the cracked C4 raw material is 2 wt%.
[0068] Based on this, the product purity of the pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction unit can be calculated to meet the polymerization grade requirements.
[0069] Purity of butadiene product: 99.9 wt%
[0070] Based on this, the economic benefits of the pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction unit can be preliminarily calculated. The second extraction tower system and the second stripping tower system account for about 15% of the total unit energy consumption. The energy consumption of the original butadiene extraction unit was 220 kg of standard oil per ton of product. After being transformed into a pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction unit, the energy consumption can be saved by 220×15% = 33 kg of standard oil per ton of product; the effective removal rate of vinyl acetylene is 99.95 wt%. After the transformation, the butadiene content in the product of the pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction unit is increased by 0.3 t / h compared with the original butadiene extraction unit; butadiene loss: 30×50%×2% = 0.3 t / h. Therefore, the butadiene loss and the increase can offset each other; the equipment investment cost of the selective hydrogenation system is offset by the second extraction system and the second stripping tower system; the increase in energy consumption of the selective hydrogenation system is limited and can be ignored. Therefore, the pre-hydrogenation butadiene extraction unit can achieve an energy consumption saving of 33 kg of standard oil per ton of product, that is, 33 kg of standard oil per ton of product × 5 yuan / kg of standard oil × 15 t of product × 8000 hours = 19.8 million / year. The energy-saving and consumption-reducing effect and economic benefits are very remarkable.
[0071] Comparative Example 1
[0072] The difference between the device of this comparative example and the device of Example 1 is that the selective hydrogenation system only includes a selective hydrogenation reactor and a light removal tower. The hydrogenation reactor is connected to the light removal tower. The light removal tower is provided with a light removal tower top discharge pipeline and a light removal tower bottom discharge pipeline. The light removal tower bottom discharge pipeline is connected to the first extraction tower system; the difference from the method of Example 1 is that after the cracked C4 raw material is sent into the selective hydrogenation reactor for hydrogenation reaction, it is sent into the light removal tower to remove light components. The top discharge includes light components such as hydrogen, methane, and propane, and the bottom of the tower obtains the C4 fraction with light components removed and is sent into the first extraction tower system.
[0073] The effective removal rate of vinyl acetylene (the product of the selectivity and conversion rate of producing butadiene) is 99.95 wt%. The loss rate of butadiene in the cracked C4 raw material is 3 wt%, and C5 in the cracked C4 raw material is not removed.
[0074] The purity of the butadiene product: 99.7 wt%.

Many modifications and variations are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art in the technical field without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
