Alkylation unit
Thread Content
Propane needs to be continuously removed from the alkylation unit; does this propane come from the raw materials or is it generated during the reaction? ?
May I ask in which unit your alkylation unit is located?
The raw materials we use for alkylation are ethylene extract oil and isobutane.
Are there any people who work at the alkylation plant? ? Answer it
The alkylation unit does not produce propane on its own; it is mainly carried in along with the feed materials. The feed materials first pass through a depropanation column before entering the reactor, where propane and some non-condensable gases are removed.
It is present in the raw materials and serves as a refrigerant in the reactor.
Will propane, as a refrigerant, enter the reactor? ?
Alkylation is an exothermic reaction; propane is compressed and cooled before being fed into the reactor to lower the temperature.
Whose technology do you use for your alkylation units? ? DuPont’s technology uses reaction distillates to cool the reaction, with a refrigerant used to control the temperature at the reactor inlet
Propane is compressed to become a liquid; it is the vaporization of this liquid into gas that absorbs heat, thereby cooling the material.
