Embodiment 1

[0026] use figure 1 In the process flow shown, the theoretical plate number of the stripper is 20, and the operating pressure is 0.6MPa(G). Raw material ethanol 2350kg / h, wherein ethanol 1997.5kg / h, water 352.5kg / h, ethanol content 85% (wt%). Raw ethanol is fed from the top of the stripper. The reaction temperature is 350°C, the reaction pressure is 0.04MPaG, and the liquid volume space velocity of ethanol is 0.8 hours -1 , dehydrated to ethylene under the action of alumina catalyst. The reaction product is firstly washed with water, then washed with alkali, and then enters the ethylene rectification tower. The ethylene rectification tower is a plate tower; the operating gauge pressure is 1.0MpaG. The ethanol 66.08kg / h and water 1932kg / h in the mixed kettle liquid of the water washing tower and the ethylene rectifying tower enter the stripping tower at the 8th theoretical plate from the top of the stripping tower to recover ethanol. The steam discharged from the top of th...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing ethene by ethanol dehydration and mainly solves problems of large ethanol loss, high waste water COD value and high energy consumption apparatus in a production process flow of preparing ethene by ethanol dehydration of a prior art. According to the invention, fresh ethanol and recovered ethanol enter a gas stripping column to realize vaporization separation in the gas stripping column; kettle liquid in a column kettle of the gas stripping column is discharged out of a system continuously; ethanol steam is obtained at top of the gas stripping column and enters into the reaction system; dehydrated reaction products enter a washing and alkali washing system to remove impurities of ethanol, acetaldehyde and carbon dioxide, etc.; crude ethene obtained after the washing and alkali washing enters into an ethene rectifying tower; and ethene product is obtained at the top of the tower. The above technical scheme well solves the problems and can be applied to industrial production for preparing ethene by ethanol dehydration.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for the process of producing ethylene by ethanol dehydration. Background technique [0002] Ethylene is a very important petrochemical raw material, and its bulk downstream products mainly include polyethylene, ethylene oxide, ethylene glycol, polyvinyl chloride, styrene, vinyl acetate, etc. [0003] The existing production process of catalytic dehydration of ethanol to ethylene (Gu Zhihua, Current status and prospect of ethanol to ethylene technology [J]. Progress in Chemistry, 2006, 25(8): 847-851) The production process is: the raw material ethanol passes through the preheater 1. After the vaporizer is heated, it is all vaporized and sent to the ethanol dehydration reaction system for reaction. The reaction product (including the reaction product ethylene, water, unreacted ethanol, etc.) from the dehydration reaction system is sent to water washing, water alkali washing, etc. to remove impurities, and after After b...
