원료 Benzene
생산물 cyclohexne
적용 To produce high-purity cyclohexane from benzene using liquid-phase catalytic hydrogenation.
설명 Description: Hydrogenation is almost completely achieved in the liquid-phase reactor (1) where the catalyst is kept in suspension by an external pump-around. Heat in excess is removed in an exchanger where low-pressure steam is produced (2). A small catalytic pot (3) acts as finishing reactor when the conversion of the main reactor drops below the required level either accidentally or when the catalyst has to be changed.
   After condensation, the reactor effluent is flashed in a highpressure separator (4). A stabilizer (5) removes hydrogen and other light dissolved gases.
   Depending on hydrogen-rich gas composition and price, flashed gas from the separator may be recycled to the main rector in order to obtain a better use of the hydrogen feed.
   Practically stoichiometric yields of cyclohexane from benzene are obtained. The purity of the cyclohexane product depends on the purity of the benzene feed.
