Patent ID: 11898102

Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for maximizing ethylene or propene production, the main steps thereof being: taking crude oil and distillate thereof, pre-processing urban mixed-waste plastics as raw material, then entering same into a catalytic cracking reactor, removing via a two-stage pre-wash tower and related separation, then cooling the reacted high-temperature oil and gas and removing impurities to obtain light and heavy distillate oils; performing a hydrogenation reaction operation on the heavy distillate oil; performing light distillate oil separation, performing a recombination operation on its olefins, its alkanes entering a steam cracking apparatus to produce rich ethylene, and its aromatic components being separated as by-products; the product of the described hydrogenation and recombination reaction and the steam-cracked distillate oil is recycled to the catalytic cracking reactor. In the production method of the present invention, the yield of ethylene and propene together is 45-75 m % of the raw material, and the yield of aromatics is 15-30 m % of the raw material; in particular, when using urban mixed-waste plastics as raw material, the ethylene or propene thus produced are used to produce new plastics by way of a conventional polymerization process, achieving the chemical recycling of waste plastics.
