Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation process for propylene from methanol or dimethyl ether. The process comprises the following steps: allowing the raw materials consisting of methanol or dimethyl ether, water and above-C4 components returned from a separation system to undergo a reaction in a first reactor so as to produce propylene-rich C1-C10 components which enter into the separation system; separating propylene from the separation system as a product and allowing above-C4 components to return to the reactor; and subjecting C1-C2 components in the separation system to a reaction in a second reactor to produce above-C3 high-carbon substances and returning the above-C3 high-carbon substances to the separation system to promote yield of propylene; wherein selectivity of propylene in the first reactor is greater than 70%, and the yield of propylene after propylene-yield promotion by the second reactor is greater than 75%. Compared with the prior art, the process provided by the invention has the advantages of high selectivity of the product propylene, no need for an ethylene cryogenic fractionation system, low content of C2 and below-C2 components, simplification of the separation system and substantial reduction of energy consumption of the separation system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for producing propylene from methanol or dimethyl ether. Background technique [0002] Propylene is an important organic chemical raw material, mainly used in the production of polypropylene, acrylonitrile and acrylic acid. At present, propylene is mainly obtained from petroleum raw materials through steam cracking or catalytic cracking, and its price is affected by the price of petroleum. The shortage of petroleum resource reserves and the growing market demand for propylene make it necessary to develop a propylene production process that does not depend on petroleum. At the same time, the domestic methanol production capacity is seriously oversupplied, and the price of methanol is low. The development of methanol to propylene (MTP) technology can use abundant coal or natural gas to produce propylene through methanol, and open up a non-petroleum route propylene production technology, which has broad market prospect...
