PROCESSO DE GERAÇÃO DE CUMENO

In an alkylation zone, a benzene recycle stream and a propylene feed stream are contacted with an alkylation catalyst to convert the propylene and benzene into cumene. In a transalkylation zone, a polyisopropylbenzene stream and a benzene recycle stream are contacted with a transalkylation catalyst...

More Information
Summary:In an alkylation zone, a benzene recycle stream and a propylene feed stream are contacted with an alkylation catalyst to convert the propylene and benzene into cumene. In a transalkylation zone, a polyisopropylbenzene stream and a benzene recycle stream are contacted with a transalkylation catalyst to convert the polyisopropylbenzene and benzene into cumene. The alkylation and transalkylation zone effluents are passed into a dividing wall fractionation column. A cumene product stream is removed from an intermediate point of the dividing wall fractionation column. A benzene recycle stream is removed from a first end, and another benzene recycle stream is removed from an intermediate point of the dividing wall fractionation column. A polyisopropylbenzene stream is removed from a second end of the dividing wall fractionation column. The polyisopropylbenzene stream is passed to a polyisopropylbenzene fractionation column to separate the polyisopropylbenzene from a heavy ends stream.
