    摘要: A method of converting one or more alkanes to one or more alkenes that includes providing a first stream containing one or more alkanes and oxygen to an oxidative dehydrogenation reactor; converting at least a portion of the one or more alkanes to one or more alkenes in the oxidative dehydrogenation reactor to provide a second stream exiting the oxidative dehydrogenation reactor containing one or more alkanes, one or more alkenes, and one or more of oxygen, carbon monoxide and acetylene; and providing the second stream to a second reactor containing a catalyst that includes CuO and ZnO and reacting the second stream to provide a third stream exiting the second reactor containing one or more alkanes, one or more alkenes, and lower or undetectable levels of oxygen and acetylene compared to the second stream.

    摘要: A process, a system, and an apparatus are provided for converting a lower alkane to an alkene. Oxygen and the lower alkane are provided to an ODH reactor to convert at least a portion of the lower alkane to an alkene. An ODH stream comprising the alkene, an oxygenate, steam, and a carbon-based oxide is produced. The bulk of the oxygenate is removed from the ODH outlet stream by non-dilutive cooling, with residual oxygenate being removed using dilutive quenching with a carbonate. Subsequently, separation of the carbon-based oxide from the alkene is achieved using a caustic tower, which also produces spent caustic in the form of a carbonate, which is then used as the carbonate for dilutive quenching. Dilutive quenching using a carbonate allows conversion of the oxygenate to an acetate, which can then be used to simplify separation of the oxygenate from water.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for producing 1,3-butadiene that is capable of suppressing generation of reaction by-products. The method includes: a step (A) of to obtain a produced gas containing 1,3-butadiene; a step (B) of cooling the produced gas; and a step (C) of separating the produced gas cooled in the step (B) into molecular oxygen and inert gases, and other gases containing 1,3-butadiene, by selective absorption into an absorption solvent. In the method, in the step (A), the raw material gas and a molecular oxygen-containing gas are supplied to a fixed-bed reactor with a composite oxide catalyst containing molybdenum and bismuth; the molar ratio of molecular oxygen to n-butene in the gases is 1.0 to 2.0; and the molar ratio of water vapor to n-butene in the gases supplied to the fixed-bed reactor is not more than 1.2.
