Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of C4 preparation, and particularly relates to a C4 preparation process and system. Background Art
[0002] C4 (carbon four) compounds generally refer to hydrocarbon compounds composed of four carbon atoms. The most common ones include butane (C4H10) and butene (C4H8). C4 compounds have a wide range of applications in the fields of chemical industry, fuels, synthetic materials, etc. By pyrolyzing petroleum or natural gas at high temperature, a series of small-molecule hydrocarbons can be obtained, including C4 compounds. This process is usually carried out at high temperature, and the use of catalysts can improve the yield and selectivity. By subjecting larger-molecule hydrocarbons to hydrotreating, C4 and its derivatives can be obtained. Catalysts are required in this process and it is carried out under high temperature and high pressure. Under certain temperature and catalyst conditions, heavier hydrocarbons are recombined to form lighter C4 compounds. This process can increase the yield of light hydrocarbons. Especially in the petroleum refining process, C4 compounds can be obtained by pyrolyzing or fermenting biomass. This method has received increasing attention in the field of renewable energy. Through the chemical reaction of syngas and using suitable catalysts, hydrocarbon compounds containing C4 can be synthesized.
[0003] During the C4 preparation process, the C4 gas that needs to be separated and distilled still contains a relatively large amount of moisture, which can reach nearly 1600 ppm. In some usage scenarios, it will seriously affect the pre-performance, safety and final product quality. For example, when used as a fuel, a high water content will affect the combustion efficiency; when used as a raw material for organic synthesis, it will easily reduce the product purity. Some existing C4 preparation devices usually cannot remove the moisture inside C4, thus affecting the final effect of C4. Therefore, the above problems need to be solved. Summary of the Invention
