摘要:
A process for isolating butadiene, with the aid of a selective solvent, from a C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture which contains butadiene and small amounts of styrene and may contain oxygen, hydrocarbons more soluble than butadiene in the selective solvent and hydrocarbons less soluble than butadiene in the selective solvent, in which process the C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture is separated by extractive distillation into a distillate which contains the less soluble hydrocarbons, a stream of butadiene and a stream containing the more soluble hydrocarbons, and in which a mixture of styrene and C.sub.4 -hydrocarbons is removed from the C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture in a distillation zone upstream of the extractive distillation, the top product of the said distillation zone being fed to the extractive distillation.
摘要:
A process for separating, by means of a selective solvent, a mixture of C.sub.4 -hydrocarbons which contains some hydrocarbons which are more soluble in the selective solvent and some which are less soluble therein, in which process the hydrocarbon mixture is separated, in an extractive distillation zone, into a top product which contains the less soluble hydrocarbons and an extract which contains the more soluble hydrocarbons and the selective solvent, the extract, taken off as the bottom product, is subjected to a flash evaporation and the resulting vapor component of the extract is recycled to the extractive distillation zone while the liquid phase remaining after the flash evaporation is fed to a solvent recovery zone, in which the liquid phase obtained from the flash evaporation is separated into a product containing the hydrocarbons and, as the bottom product, the selective solvent which has been freed from the hydrocarbons, the resulting selective solvent is recycled to the extractive distillation zone and the product which is obtained from the solvent recovery zone and contains the hydrocarbons is partially or completely recycled to the extractive distillation zone, after increasing the pressure in a compression zone, in which process the extract taken off the extractive distillation zone is brought, prior to the flash evaporation to a higher pressure than the pressure in the extractive distillation zone and thereafter the extract which is under this higher pressure is heated, in a heat exchange zone, by indirect heat exchange with the selective solvent obtained as the bottom product from the solvent recovery zone, and the heated extract is subsequently let down, in the flash evaporation, to a pressure which is at least equal to the pressure in the extractive distillation zone and is higher than the pressure in the solvent recovery zone.

摘要:
Isoprene is recovered from a C.sub.5 -hydrocarbon mixture containing isoprene, penta-1,3-diene and cyclopentadiene by separating the said mixture by liquid-liquid extraction or extractive distillation with the aid of a selective solvent, in combination with a distillation upstream or downstream from the liquid-liquid extraction or extractive distillation, by a method in which a stream containing penta-1,3-diene and cyclopentadiene is separated off in the upstream or downstream distillation and is catalytically hydrogenated, and the hydrogenated stream is fed to the upper part of the liquid-liquid extraction or extractive distillation.

A process for isolating 1,3-butadiene by means of a selective solvent from a C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture which contains 1,3-butadiene, propyne, hydrocarbons which are more soluble than 1,3-butadiene in the selective solvent and hydrocarbons which are less soluble than 1,3-butadiene in the selective solvent, wherein the C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture is separated, using one or more extractive distillation zones, into a distillate containing the less soluble hydrocarbons, a stream of 1,3-butadiene and a stream containing the more soluble hydrocarbons, and the propyne is separated off either by distillation of the C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture in a distillation zone upstream of the extractive distillation zone or zones or by distillation of the stream of 1,3-butadiene, obtained from the extractive distillation zone or zones, in a downstream distillation zone, giving a stream of hydrocarbons containing propyne and 1,3-butadiene, which stream is fed to an additional distillation zone, while at the same time a second stream of liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons is fed to the additional distillation zone, and the bottom product from the additional distillation zone is recycled to the extractive distillation.

A process for isolating isobutene from C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixtures containing isobutene by reacting the mixture with a primary alcohol in the presence of an acid condensing agent, to form the tertiary ether, separating off the unconverted hydrocarbons and decomposing the tertiary ether in the presence of an acid catalyst at an elevated temperature, wherein a primary C.sub.3 - or C.sub.4 -alcohol is used and the temperature at which the reaction mixture leaves the etherification stage, in which the tertiary ether is formed, is lower than the mean temperature in the etherification stage.

摘要:
A process for conjointly preparing methyl tert.-butyl ether and obtaining isobutene from an isobutene-containing C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture. In the process the C.sub.4 -hydrocarbon mixture is reacted, in one or more etherification stages, with methanol and a primary C.sub.3 - or C.sub.4 -alcohol in the presence of an acid condensing agent, the resulting reaction mixture or mixtures are then separated into a fraction containing the unconverted hydrocarbons, the methyl tert.-butyl ether and a fraction containing the C.sub.3 - or C.sub.4 -alkyl tert.-butyl ether. Thereafter, the C.sub.3 - or C.sub.4 -alkyl tert.-butyl ether is decomposed at an elevated temperature, in the presence of an acid catalyst, into isobutene and primary C.sub.3 - or C.sub.4 -alcohol.
