Disclosed is a process for the regeneration of an adsorber. For the regeneration a liquid stream (S) is applied which is obtained by hydrogenation of a stream (S) comprising at least one alkane and least one olefin. The stream (S) comprises one alkane and a reduced amount of at least one olefin compared to the amount in the stream (S). Then the stream (S) is converted from the liquid into the gaseous phase and the adsorber is regenerated by contact with the gaseous stream (S).

Process for adsorber regeneration

Disclosed is a process for the regeneration of an adsorber (A). The adsorber (A) is regenerated by contact with a gaseous stream (S) and the outflow of the adsorber (A) comprising condensate of stream (S) and organic composition (OC) collected in a device. After regeneration of the adsorber (A) the stream (S) in the adsorber (A) is replaced completely or at least partially by the content of the device. Then the adsorber (A) is fed with organic composition comprising at least one olefin, at least one alkane and at least one compound containing oxygen and/or sulfur.

Product recovery process for adsorber regeneration

Disclosed is a process for the purification of an organic composition (OC) by adsorption using an assembly containing at least two adsorbers. The organic composition (OC) comprising at least one alkane, at least one olefin and at least one compound containing oxygen and/or sulphur is fed into a first adsorber (A) of the assembly in order to obtain an organic composition (OC) comprising at least one alkane, at least one olefin and a reduced amount of at least one compound containing oxygen and/or sulphur compared to the respective amount in organic composition (OC). Hydrogenation of the organic composition (OC) provides a stream (S) comprising at least one alkane and a reduced amount of at least one olefin compared to the respective amount in organic composition (OC) obtained after feeding into the first adsorber (A). A second adsorber (A) of the assembly is regenerated by contact with stream (S).

Process for purification of an organic composition

A process for the production of oligomerized olefins comprising the following steps: purification of an organic composition (OC) in at least one adsorber to obtain an organic composition (OC); oligomerization of organic composition (OC) in the presence of a catalyst to obtain an organic composition (OC); distillation of organic composition (OC) in a distillation column (D1) to obtain an organic composition (OC) from the upper part of (D) and an organic composition (OC) from the lower part of (D); hydrogenation of organic composition (OC) to obtain an organic composition (OC) and regeneration of an adsorber (A) employing organic composition (OC) as regeneration media.

Process for the production of oligomerized olefins

The invention relates to a process for the regeneration of an adsorber. For the regeneration a liquid stream (S) comprising at least one alkane is converted from liquid phase into gaseous phase. Then the adsorber is regenerated and heated by contact with gaseous stream (S) up to 230 to 270&#xb0; C. Subsequently, the adsorber is cooled first by contact with gaseous stream (S) to a temperature of 90 to 150&#xb0; C. followed by cooling with liquid stream (S) to a temperature below 80&#xb0; C. The outflow of the adsorber (S*) during the cooling with gaseous stream (S) and optionally the outflow of the adsorber (S*) during cooling with liquid stream (S) is recycled in at least one of these steps.

Recycling process for adsorber regeneration

The invention relates to a process for regeneration of an adsorber (A) by contact with a stream (S), wherein the stream (S) is heated in advance by at least two heat exchange units (HEU) and (HEU). As outflow of the adsorber (A) a stream (S) is obtained, which is passed through at least two heat exchange units (HEU) and (HEU) traversed by stream (S), wherein the temperature of stream (S) fed into each heat exchange unit is higher than the temperature of stream (S) fed into the heat exchange units (HEU) and (HEU), in order to directly transfer heat from stream (S) to stream (S).
