摘要:
A process for the production of alkylaromatic hydrocarbons by alkylating aromatic hydrocarbons with linear olefinic hydrocarbons is disclosed. The linear olefinic hydrocarbons are produced by dehydrogenating linear paraffinic hydrocarbons which are extracted from a heartcut that is distilled from a kerosene boiling range fraction in either a dividing wall fractionation column or in two fully thermally coupled fractionation columns. The process significantly decreases the cost of utilities in producing alkylaromatic precursors for detergent manufacture.
摘要:
A system and process for producing xylene and other alkylated aromatics includes one or more fluidized bed reaction zones that provide contact between the reactants (i.e., an aromatic reactant and an alkylating reagent). Improved conversion and selectivity is realized when the alkylating reagent is stagewise injected into the fluidized bed at one or more locations downstream from the location of aromatic reactant introduction into the fluidized bed. Preferably, the alkylating reagent is introduced at a plurality of locations along the axial direction of the fluidized bed reaction zone, or at plural locations between a plurality of different fluidized bed reaction zones.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for alkylating an alkylation substrate with an alkylating agent in the presence of solid catalyst particles in a transport reactor is disclosed. Solid catalyst particles in the transport reactor effluent recirculate to the inlet of the transport reactor through one or more conduits. The rate through each conduit is regulated by fluid-controlled valves that use the alkylation substrate as the regulating fluid. This method and apparatus help ensure uniform or symmetric flow of catalyst from the effluent of the transport reactor to the bottom of the transport reactor. This method and apparatus also help ensure uniform or symmetric flow of alkylation substrate to the bottom of the transport reactor with minimal bypassing by the alkylating agent around of the transport reactor. This invention finds use in the production of motor fuels by the alkylation of liquid hydrocarbons in the presence of solid catalyst particles.
摘要:
A unified process for reactive distillation under pressure for the alkylation of light aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene and cumene with straight chain C6-C18 olefins using a solid acid alkylation catalyst supported in the reflux zone of the distillation column. The process is continuous, using a reactive distillation configuration such that at least a portion of the olefin is injected below the benzene rectification zone at the top of the column. The aromatic hydrocarbon is injected continuously at a low rate above the rectification zone at the base of the column and above the reboiler. The alkylation reaction takes place primarily in the liquid phase on the solid acid catalyst and is characterized in that the molar ratio of aromatic hydrocarbon to olefin in the liquid phase may be adjusted. The molar ratio is adjustable up to about 100/1, through adjustment of the internal column operating pressure, the benzene reflux rate, the amount of benzene removed from the reflux condenser to storage or from the reboiler with the distillation column operated at or near total aromatic hydrocarbon reflux. The unexpectedly high liquid phase aromatic hydrocarbon to olefin molar ratios achieved in the reactive distillation column increases the selectivity to mono-alkylated aromatics and helps stabilize catalyst lifetime.
摘要:
A method for preparing diarylethane is disclosed. Alkylation is carried out in a continuous type process at 100-300° C. under a pressure of 1-45 kg/cm2 G in the presence of a solid acid catalyst while a reactant mixture comprising alpha-methylbenzylalcohol and at least one aromatic hydrocarbon at a volume ratio of 1:1-10, is fed at a weight hourly space velocity of 0.1-10 h−1. The alpha-methylbenzylalcohol acts as an ailylating agent. Diarylethane can be prepared at a low cost, but a high production yield by the method.
