Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for preparing of linear alpha-olefins by oligomerizing of ethylene in the presence of an organic solvent and a homogenous catalyst comprising a zirconium component and an organoaluminum component.
- a catalyst is utilized in that process comprising a zirconium component and an organoaluminum component which acts as an activator.
- DE 43 38 414 Cl discloses a process for the production of linear alpha-olefins, wherein one reactor is utilized into which a catalyst solution and ethylene are introduced. That process results in a product distribution of linear alpha-olefins having C 2 -C 28 carbon atoms. It is already known in the field of the art that the product distribution may be varied by changing the ratio of the catalyst components, i.e. the ratio Al/Zr. The nature of the catalyst drives the distribution either to the light or heavy products.
- This object is achieved in that the method is carried out in more than one reactor being operated in parallel, wherein for each reactor the method conditions and parameters are independently adjustable.
- the Al/Zr ratio for the catalyst components is adjustable.
- temperature and pressure may be individually adjustable in each reactor.
- each reactor has at least one feed line for introducing the catalyst components, each dissolved in a solvent, into the reactor.
- the catalyst components may be pre-mixed prior to introduction into the reactor.
- each reactor has two feed lines to introduce the catalyst components separately into the reactor.
- the outlet of some or all reactors is blended.
- control device controls the amount and rate of introduction of catalyst and/or catalyst components.
- the organoaluminum component may be Al(C 2 Hs) 3 , Al 2 Cl 3 (C 2 Hs) 3 or A1C1(C 2 H 5 ) 2 .
- the production flexibility may be increased and the product distribution may be adjusted according to market requirements, if a method is utilized wherein more than one reactor is operated in parallel, wherein for each reactor the method conditions and parameters may be adjusted independently from the other ones.
- the product distribution of each available reactor is adjusted individually, so that the required overall distribution can be met and market requirements may be fulfilled.
- the production quantity of specific products can be maintained even during shutdown of one reactor (e.g. for maintenance and cleaning) by adjustment of the reactors remaining on stream.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of a plant for the production of linear alpha olefins having four reactors to be operated in parallel.
- the method for preparing of linear alpha-olefins is conducted in a plant having more than one reactor being operated in parallel.
- the figure shows four reactors 1.
- one catalyst component for example the zirconium component
- a further distribution line 3 is provided to introduce the second catalyst component, for example the organoaluminum component, into each reactor.
- the zirconium component and organoaluminum component are mixed directly in the reactor.
- the catalyst components may be pre- mixed prior to introduction into each reactor, so that only one common distribution line is required.
- each reactor is provided with separate lines for introducing the catalyst components, so that it is possible to introduce in each reactor different catalyst components, for example different organoaluminum compounds to influence the production flexibility.
- each control device 4 for controlling the amount and rate of the catalyst components to be introduced is additionally provided.
- Each control device 4 is thus employed to control all method conditions and parameters in each reactor 1, e.g. also temperature and pressure. Of course, only once control device 4 may be necessary to control all reactors.
- Each reactor is also provided with an ethylene feed line 5.
- the catalyst components are dissolved in a solvent, wherein toluene is preferably utilized.
- At least one discharge line 6 is provided for each reactor to discharge the reaction products.
- One skilled in the art is aware that several discharge lines are to be provided to remove both gaseous and liquid compounds from the reactor, which are omitted in the figure for -A-
- the discharge lines 6 of each reactor may combine so that the products obtained in the reactors may be mixed.
- the reaction conditions and parameters may be adjusted in each reactor individually, the production flexibility and especially the product distribution may be optimized to fulfill market requirements.
