Problem of carbon 5 in the feed gas for the gas phase process
Thread Content
Recently, there have been issues with the stability of the catalytic units, which has resulted in the feed gas for gas separation containing some carbon-5, thereby affecting the purity of MTBE. Can carbon 5 residues be removed at the dehydration unit of the gas-phase feedstock buffer tank? (Is there a clear separation between carbon 4 and carbon 5 inside the tank?) ) Thank you to all the teachers for their guidance!
No, there’s no obvious difference; it’s better to take them slowly so they stay calm
The gas feed buffer tanks designed today are equipped with vane-type high-efficiency gas-liquid demister separators at their tops or on the gas-phase outlet pipelines; these separators enable efficient removal of C4/C5 liquid droplets and mist from the gas stream, thereby preventing the gas feed from containing carbon5 compounds that could affect the purity of MTBE.
