Preliminary experience with one of Europe`s biggest MTBE plants; Erste Erfahrungen mit einer der groessten MTBE-Anlagen Europas

Abstract

The MTBE reaction with its high selectivity makes no particular demands on separation efficiency; the whole C{sub 4} fraction from the FCC can be passed through the reactors. After separating the MTBE, the low-isobutene C{sub 4} olefin fraction will be upgraded for the alkylation stage by removing undesirable components. The butadienes produced in the cracking process are saturated by selective hydrogenation, and the butene-1 is largely converted into butene-2, as this will result in the alkylate with the highest octane rating. After hydrogenation, the oxygen compounds are removed in a molecular sieve. (orig.).
