Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of petrochemical industry and organic synthesis, and in particular relates to a system and process for coupling propane dehydrogenation and hydroformylation. Background Art
[0002] Propylene hydroformylation is a core reaction in the organic synthesis industry for producing high-value oxygenates (such as butyraldehyde and isobutyraldehyde). Approximately 70% of global plasticizers rely on butyraldehyde derivatives, which are widely used in industries such as PVC plastics, rubber, and coatings, supporting trillion-dollar markets such as construction, automotive, and packaging. Therefore, butyraldehyde and its derivatives are key links in the global supply chain, and independent control of hydroformylation technology is crucial to ensuring the security of the supply chain.
[0003] Propylene hydroformylation uses propylene (C3H6) and synthesis gas (CO / H2) as feedstocks, producing C4 aldehydes over a catalyst. Ideally, hydroformylation requires a 1:1 ratio of H2 / CO. However, controlling the synthesis gas ratio in practice is difficult. Excessive H2 can easily trigger the hydrogenation of propylene to propane (a side reaction), while excess CO inhibits the reaction rate. Furthermore, conventional processes have limited sources of synthesis gas, primarily relying on fossil fuel reforming, resulting in high carbon emissions and contradicting the trend toward green chemistry. Existing hydroformylation processes rely on external propylene as feedstock. As a petrochemical raw material, propylene's price is significantly affected by fluctuations in the crude oil market, resulting in high costs and instability associated with externally purchased propylene. Furthermore, propylene is a flammable gas, requiring high-pressure liquefaction for long-distance transportation, which poses significant safety risks and consumes a lot of energy. Overall, the production process for hydroformylation feedstock is complex, costly, and poses significant transportation safety risks.
[0004] With the rise of shale gas development, propane dehydrogenation (PDH) has gradually become a mainstream technology for propylene production. This process uses a catalyst to directly dehydrogenate propane to produce propylene and hydrogen (H2) as a by-product. It boasts excellent conversion rates and high propylene selectivity, with a near 1:1 ratio of propylene to hydrogen. The process technology is mature. However, the propylene produced requires high storage and transportation costs to downstream plants for production of high-value-added products. Furthermore, the hydrogen produced as a by-product of the near 1:1 reaction with propylene is often burned directly as fuel, rather than converted into high-value-added chemicals, resulting in a significant waste of resources.
[0005] In the prior art, Chinese patents CN 116178107 A and CN 116178107 B disclose a method for producing mixed alcohols by coupling two reaction processes of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and hydroformylation. First, synthesis gas is converted into alkanes, olefins, alcohols, aldehydes, etc. in a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reactor. Secondly, the obtained synthesis product is passed into a hydroformylation reactor to convert the olefins into aldehydes. Finally, hydrogenation is performed to obtain a mixture of alkanes and mixed alcohols, which is further distilled and separated to obtain mixed alcohols. The above patents all require specific and cumbersome processes to obtain synthesis gas in a specific proportion, and the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction products involved are complex, which will undoubtedly increase the cost of obtaining raw materials and the cost of separating intermediate products. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The present invention discloses a propane dehydrogenation and propylene hydroformylation coupling system and process. The system couples propylene and hydrogen produced by a propane dehydrogenation reaction with propylene and hydrogen required for a propylene hydroformylation reaction as raw materials. This avoids the storage and transportation of propylene and hydrogen required for the hydroformylation process, as well as the production process of a single propylene and hydrogen product. This reduces the cost of complex processes and improves process efficiency.

Compared to traditional propylene hydroformylation processes, this system avoids the cumbersome production processes of fossil fuel hydrogen production and propylene production, and also avoids the storage and transportation of propylene and hydrogen. The hydrogen generated by the propane dehydrogenation reaction can be utilized as a resource. By avoiding the storage and transportation of propylene and hydrogen required in the hydroformylation process, as well as the production process of a single propylene and hydrogen product, this coupled system and process reduces the costs associated with complex processes, reduces construction land, and achieves better economic benefits.
