CN111574318A describes Ruihua's technology for alkylation reaction of benzene with pure ethylene in liquid phase for the production of ethylbenzene.
The technology involves the steps of:
a. Treating the benzene raw material two impurity absorbers, a light component (tail gas) removal tower and a benzene recovery tower. b. Protection reaction involving an alkylation reactor and a protection reactor. c. Alkylation reaction involving steam generators and two catalyst-bed layers. d. Benzene recovery from the benzene recovery column. e. Ethylbenzene recovery from the ethylbenzene recovery column. f. Polyethylbenzene recovery from the polyethylbenzene recovery column. g. Trans-alkylation reaction in the trans-alkylation reactor.
The attached image depicts the corresponding process design according to:1. Alkylation reactor. 2. Steam generator 3. Protection reactor 4. Benzene recovery column 5. Light components (tail gas) removal tower 6.&7. Impurity absorbers 8. Ethylbenzene recovery column 9. Polyethylbenzene recovery column 10.&12. Booster pumps 11. Trans-alkylation reactor 13. Heat exchanger 14. Condenser
Operational details are provided in the referenced document. In the example 2, it is mentioned that:- ethylbenzene selectivity reaches 90%
- steam consumption is 5.1 t/h for an ethylene flow of 9,160 kg/h
- Standard oil consumption is 10 kg per tonne of ethylbenzene
