Issues in the treatment of fuel gas produced by olefin separation units
Thread Content
Our plant’s olefin separation unit produces fuel gas, but there are currently no users for it. I would appreciate it if those of you with experience could suggest how this fuel gas should be handled
Which factory do you work at? The fuel gas produced by MTO is mainly used by several parties: boilers, gasification and sulfur recovery units, flares; in the worst case, it is burned. It would be ideal if propane could be recovered from it. Some companies are also considering using it as backflow air in MTO processes, but to date, no one has implemented this approach.
The separated fuel gas is usually combined into the fuel gas network for use in MTO and boilers. How much fuel gas do you produce?
The CO incinerator burns off the generated steam. Or extract hydrogen.
If it doesn’t work, extract hydrogen and then burn the by-product steam.
