    摘要: Apparatus is provided for treating a cracked hydrocarbon gas, e.g., an effluent resulting from the pyrolytic conversion of a feed, consisting essentially of ethane to form ethylene, is treated with an alkali wash, in an apparatus comprising in one embodiment thereof means for a complete treatment of said gas, a tower in which in its lower portion there is a partition extending upwardly from a point near the tower bottom to provide at least two sections in the bottom of the tower, means for introducing gas into the tower, the partition providing in the bottom of the tower an essentially gas-free section, means for also introducing into said tower a solvent for treating said treating solution, means for withdrawing treating solution from said gas-free section, means for withdrawing solvent from a place in said gas-free section, and means for shielding or baffling said place; there being provided above the sections formed by the partition a top section for water washing gas to remove therefrom any entrained treating solution and/or solvent; and a section below said top section for treating gas with treating solution a section below the last mentioned section for treating gas with further treating solution and/or with solvent, introduced to dissolve from said treating solution a polymer formed therein and/or polymer forming constituents. Apparatus is also provided for treating the used solvent by contact with an adsorbent, e.g., activated charcoal or carbon or functional equivalent, to remove from the solvent polymer and polymer-forming constituents, rendering the solvent suitable for reuse and avoiding ultimate plugging of pumps, pipes, heat exchangers and other equipment.
