Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] The industrial production of styrene is to use benzene and ethylene as raw materials to first undergo an alkylation reaction under certain conditions to generate ethylbenzene, then mix ethylbenzene with steam in a certain proportion, dehydrogenate under certain conditions, and separate the dehydrogenated product into oil and water to extract styrene after cooling. At present, when producing styrene, ethylbenzene needs to be mixed with excess steam. Excess steam enters the reactor to produce high-pressure saturated water.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the high-pressure saturated water utilization system for styrene production provided by the utility model includes a first reactor 10, a second reactor 20, a flash tank 30 and a steam generator 40.

[0022] The method for industrial production of styrene is to use benzene and ethylene as raw materials, first carry out alkylation reaction under certain conditions to produce ethylbenzene, then mix ethylbenzene with steam in a certain proportion and dehydrogenate under certain conditions.

[0023] like Figure 1As shown, the first reactor 10 is used for reacting benzene and ethylene, and benzene and ethylene react in the first reactor 10 to generate ethylbenzene.

A first conveying pipe 12 is arranged between the first reactor 10 and the second reactor 20, and the first reactor 10 and the second reactor 20 are connected through the first conveying pipe 12, and the ethylbenzene generated by the reaction of benzene and ethylene in the first reactor 10 is conveyed to the second reactor 20 through the first conveying pipe 12.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a steam conveying pipe 41 is provided between the steam generator 40 and the second reactor 20, and the steam generator 40 is connected to the second reactor 20 through the steam conveying pipe 41. The steam generator 40 is used to generate high-temperature steam. The steam generated by the steam generator 40 is conveyed to the second reactor 20 through the steam conveying pipe 41, and the ethylbenzene in the second reactor 20 undergoes a dehydrogenation reaction under the action of excess steam.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the second reactor 20 is used for dehydrogenation reaction of ethylbenzene with steam. The ethylbenzene in the second reactor 20 undergoes dehydrogenation reaction under the action of a catalyst and the introduction of excess steam. Excess steam entering the second reactor 20 will produce high-pressure saturated water.
[0026] The high-pressure saturated water utilization system for styrene production provided by the utility model further comprises a storage tank 50 , and the styrene produced by the dehydrogenation reaction of ethylbenzene and steam in the second reactor 20 is transported into the storage tank 50 through a discharge pipe 51 for storage.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a second delivery pipe 21 is provided between the second reactor 20 and the flash tank 30 , and the second reactor 20 and the flash tank 30 are connected via the second delivery pipe 21 , and the second delivery pipe 21 is used to deliver the high-pressure saturated water generated in the second reactor 20 into the flash tank 30 .
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a liquid inlet pipe 31 is connected to the side wall of the flash tank 30, an air outlet pipe 32 is connected to the top of the flash tank 30, and the end of the air outlet pipe 32 away from the flash tank 30 is connected to the steam delivery pipe 41 through the air delivery pipe 42, and a liquid outlet pipe 33 is connected to the bottom of the flash tank 30, and the end of the liquid outlet pipe 33 away from the flash tank 30 is connected to the steam generator 40 through the liquid delivery pipe 43.
