Problems solved by technology

If the existing n-butene skeletal isomerization technology is used to process C4 raw materials with high butadiene content, the deactivation of the catalyst will be significantly accelerated, resulting in the need for more frequent regeneration. Therefore, the existing technology usually requires The butadiene content in the butene raw material is less than 100ppm
In addition, if the existing n-butene skeletal isomerization technology is used to process C4 raw materials with n-butene content as high as 85wt%, in addition to generating isobutene, it will also co-produce a large amount of low-quality gasoline, which has the disadvantage of low isobutene per-pass yield

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing isobutene from an MTO byproduct C4. The method comprises the following steps: (1) an MTO byproduct C4 raw material and hydrogen enters a hydrogenation reactor, and the content of butadiene is allowed to decrease to less than 100 ppm under the action of a selective hydrogenation catalyst; (2) hydrogen is separated from hydrogenation products and enters an n-butene skeletal isomerization reactor, and n-butene is isomerized into isobutene under the action of an isomerization catalyst; and (3) an isomerization product enters a gas-liquid separation tank and is cooled, a separated gaseous product and a separated liquid product both enter a fractionate tower, wherein the distance between the gaseous product and the top of the fractionate tower is 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the height of the fractionate tower and the distance between the liquid product and the top of the fractionate tower is 2 / 3 to 3 / 4 of the height of the fractionate tower, a mixed C4 product containing isobutene is extracted from the top of the fractionate tower, and C5<+> gasoline is extracted from the bottom of the fractionate tower. The method has the advantages of a low oil-generating ratio, short regeneration time and capability of processing a C4 raw material with high butadiene content.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing isobutene by using carbon four, a by-product of MTO, as a raw material. Background technique [0002] In 2011, the total production capacity of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) plants in my country has exceeded 7.5 million tons per year, and the average operating rate of MTBE plants is only 60%. The supply of raw material isobutylene has become a bottleneck restricting the development of MTBE industry. [0003] At present, the isobutene resources in my country's market mainly come from the by-product C4 of catalytic cracking and ethylene cracking. Affected by the lightening of ethylene cracking raw materials and the domestic methanol-to-olefins (MTO) route, the output of cracked C4, which is the main source of isobutene, will decrease, and the future may face a situation of even more shortage of isobutene raw materials [0004] According to the statistics of the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Feder...
