Abstract

The invention relates to an energy-saving separation method of ethylstyrene and styrene, which mainly solves the problem of high energy consumption of industrial devices of a styrene separation system in the prior art. The present invention comprises the following steps by adopting: a) the dehydrogenation liquid mainly containing ethylbenzene and styrene enters the ethylbenzene / styrene separation tower T101, obtains the tower top gas stream I containing benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and containing styrene The bottom liquid stream II; b) stream I enters the ethylbenzene / water azeotropic evaporator, heats the external ethylbenzene / water mixture, and obtains the ethylbenzene / water azeotrope stream III after heat exchange, and part of the stream I condenses The extraction enters the ethylbenzene separation tower; c) The ethylbenzene separation tower is divided into two towers (T102A, B) for operation, the pressure of T102A tower is higher, the pressure of T102B tower is lower, and the gas phase at the top of tower A is used to heat the liquid at the bottom of tower B The scheme solves this technical problem well and can be used in the industrial production of ethylbenzene / styrene separation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an energy-saving separation method of ethylstyrene and styrene. Background technique [0002] Styrene is one of the most important basic organic chemical raw materials. It is mainly produced by dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene in industry. It is used for self-polymerization to produce polystyrene and expanded polystyrene, and it can also be produced by copolymerization with other unsaturated compounds. Various products such as synthetic rubber and resin, such as styrene / butadiene copolymer latex, styrene-butadiene rubber and latex, unsaturated polyester and others such as styrene / methyl methacrylate latex, ion exchange resins and drugs, etc. [0003] The key to the rectification part of the styrene production process is the separation of ethylbenzene and styrene. Since the difference between the boiling points of ethylbenzene and styrene is very small, and the difference is only 9°C under normal pressure, the number of theoretic...
