[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to isobutylene, 1-butene and/or
The present invention relates to a method for recovering 1-butene and/or 2-butene from a C 4 hydrocarbon mixture containing or 2-butene. [Prior Art] Isobutylene (or isobutene) oligomers, such as hydrocarbons having 8 to 20 carbon atoms corresponding to dimers or pentamers, are used in many fields. For example, the dimer (DIB) is used in the production of nonyl alcohol and p-octylphenol through oxation, and as an additive for gasoline.
Trimers (TIB) and tetramers are themselves used as chemical raw materials, but their hydrogenated versions are also used as isoparaffin odorless solvents, wet copying solvents, and high-pressure polyethylene manufacturing solvents. There is. When producing isobutylene oligomers, a C4 hydrocarbon mixture (referred to as SBB) containing butane and butene isomers, which are by-produced during the production of olefins by thermal decomposition of petroleum fractions such as naphtha, is usually used.
is used as a raw material and catalytically reacted in the presence of various catalysts. As a catalyst,
Conventionally, mineral acids such as H 2 SO 4 , H 3 PO 4 ,
Many strong acid ion exchange resins and various oxide catalysts have been proposed as solid acid catalysts. However, in the reactions using these conventional catalysts, the main purpose is to create oligomers from SBB, and at that time, not only isobutylene but also coexisting 1-butene and 2-butene are oligomerized, and 1-butene is converted into 2-butene.
-Butene is often isomerized, and there is no method that has been devised to keep the conversion rate of 1-butene coexisting in the raw material low. There is also a study on co-dimerization of isobutylene and 1-butene or 2-butene, such as JP-A No. 54-92901, and in the oligomerization reaction using SBB, n
- Butenes also inevitably undergo oligomerization;
Furthermore, in these conventional catalysts, 1-butene is
Significant isomerization to butenes is common. In some cases, as in JP-A-51-8201, an attempt has been made to reduce the total amount of n-butene consumed by oligomers by isomerizing 1-butene to 2-butene and then subjecting it to an oligomerization reaction. This indicates that 1-butene is much more easily oligomerized than 2-butene, and this indicates that it is difficult to preserve 1-butene without being changed in the oligomerization reaction. . Moreover, many examples of conventional catalysts do not mention anything about 1-butene. [Problem to be solved by the invention] However, the use of 1-butene as a comonomer for high-density polyethylene or as a comonomer for low-pressure low-density polyethylene, which has been attracting attention recently, has opened up, and the demand for it is rapidly increasing. be. As a method of securing this 1-butene, SBB
The isobutylene inside is removed as an oligomer, and 1-
A process of concentrating and separating butene can be considered, but
With the conventional catalysts described above, 1-butene is either isomerized to 2-butene or oligomerized and lost, so 1-butene cannot be efficiently concentrated. This was a fatal flaw when considered from the standpoint of "security." In order to solve the above drawbacks, the present inventors
In the oligomerization reaction of SBB, the present invention was arrived at as a result of studies on catalysts with a high isobutylene conversion rate and a low 1-butene conversion rate. [Means for Solving the Problems] According to the present invention, in order to solve the above problems, activated clay or acid clay is heated in the presence of a catalyst obtained by firing activated clay or acid clay in air at a temperature of 200 to 600°C. , 50~
A C 4 hydrocarbon mixture, characterized in that isobutylene in the C 4 hydrocarbon mixture containing isobutylene and 1-butene and/or 2-butene is selectively reacted at a temperature of 150 ° C., and then removed and purified. A method for recovering 1-butene and/or 2-butene from The catalysts used in the present invention are generally included in the solid acid catalyst range of isobutylene oligomerization catalysts, but as a result of detailed study of the activation conditions of these catalysts, we found that they have characteristics that conventional catalysts do not have. It was successfully brought out. That is, the present inventors fired activated clay or acid clay in air, generally at a temperature of 200 to 600°C for 1 to 10 hours, preferably at a temperature of 400 to 500°C for 3 to 5 hours. It has been discovered that when used as a catalyst, excellent isobutylene conversion and oligomer yield can be obtained, and 1-butene conversion can be kept extremely low. There are no particular restrictions on the reaction conditions for oligomerization, but the reaction temperature is usually 50 to 150°C, preferably
The temperature is 70 to 100° C. and the pressure is 5 to 40 Kg/cm 2 .In principle, the pressure may be sufficient as long as the SBB used as a raw material remains in a liquid state under the reaction conditions. Further, although the reaction time cannot be absolutely defined depending on other reaction conditions, it can be said that about 1 to 4 hours is appropriate. Although the solvent is not necessarily required, when a saturated hydrocarbon solvent such as n-hexane is used, it has the effect of suppressing the conversion rate of 1-butene.
In addition, when there is a lot of moisture in the raw material, the activity of the catalyst will not be fully demonstrated, so the moisture in SBB should be reduced to 200ppm,
The content is preferably 10 ppm or less. material
A small amount of dienes and acetylenes contained in SBB can be subjected to the reaction as they are without pretreatment. In the oligomerization of isobutylene, 1 to 30 wt% of catalyst is added to SBB, which is the reaction raw material, preferably 15 to 30 wt%.
It is added to about 20wt% and reacted continuously or batchwise. In the batch method, the reaction takes place in the form of a slurry. After the reaction is completed, the oligomer and catalyst are filtered off, and 1-butene/2-butene is recovered at a high concentration by further purification if necessary. Note that 1-butene and 2-butene can be separated by distillation, if desired. Industrially, it is desirable to implement the method using the distribution method, and it is fully possible to implement, without any difficulty. [Example] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to Examples.
Although the Examples show the results obtained using a batch reactor, it goes without saying that a continuous reactor can also be employed in carrying out the present invention. Example 1 Acid clay (manufactured by Mizusawa Chemical Co., Ltd.) was fired in a Matsufuru furnace at 450°C for 4.5 hours under open air.
20.0g of the catalyst obtained by cooling was washed in advance,
Place in an autoclave with 2 N atmosphere. 60.4g of SBB was introduced into the autoclave, and about 2Kg/ cm2 was added with N2.
After pressurizing the autoclave to 90°C, the reaction was carried out with stirring for 4 hours. Samples were taken from the liquid phase every hour for gas analysis. After the reaction is completed, the autoclave is cooled, and after the reaction solution reaches room temperature, the valve is opened, the unreacted gas is passed through a dry ice-methanol trap, and the amount of SBB is measured. Open the autoclave and (catalyst + oligomer)
was taken out and the amount of catalyst charged was subtracted to obtain the amount of oligomer. The composition was analyzed and quantified using GC. The SBB gas composition was obtained by gasifying the entire amount of liquid SBB in the trap into a Tedler bag, stirring well, and performing GC analysis. hourly and 4
The results after hours were as follows.
