Description

Method for continuously producing alpha-olefin by ethylene oligomerization
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of ethylene oligomerization, and relates to a method for continuously producing alpha-olefin by ethylene oligomerization.
Background
The preparation methods of alpha-olefin are more, and include a primary alcohol dehydration method, a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis method, an internal olefin isomerization method, an aliphatic alcohol dehydrogenation method, an extraction separation method, a paraffin cracking method, an ethylene oligomerization method and the like. Among the various preparation methods, the latter three are mainly used industrially, and ethylene oligomerization is dominant. The paraffin cracking method obtains mixed olefin with odd and even carbon numbers, the product has more impurities and poor quality, and the device using the paraffin cracking method is almost completely stopped in foreign countries by the middle of the 80 s. The ethylene oligomerization for producing the alpha-olefin is a main production route in the world at present, has the advantages of high purity, high normal ratio, good selectivity and the like of the alpha-olefin product, and can meet the requirements of downstream application, such as the alpha-olefin with high normal ratio required for being used as a polyethylene comonomer, synthesizing a polyolefin elastomer and the like.
The selective oligomerization of ethylene is one direction of the development of ethylene oligomerization. Domestic selective trimerization of ethylene has been industrialized, but selective tetramerization of ethylene is still under investigation. One of the problems which plague the industrialization thereof is the high cost of using methylaluminoxane or triisobutylaluminum-modified methylaluminoxane. Methylaluminoxane is currently totally imported and is difficult to recycle due to its solubility in solvents or alpha-olefin products. The catalyst for ethylene tetramerization usually needs more methylaluminoxane to remove impurities in a reaction system, and then is combined with the catalyst to form an active center, and the molar ratio of the methylaluminoxane to the catalyst in the ethylene tetramerization reaction is more than 300 to achieve a better catalytic effect. Another problem is that during ethylene tetramerisation, polymer formation is difficult to avoid. The polymer can be adhered to the wall of the reaction kettle during accumulation to influence heat transfer, and the continuous production is influenced by the blockage of a process pipeline.
