Provided is a method for preparing 1-butene and propylene including: supplying a C4 mixture stream to a first hydrogenation reactor to convert 1,3-butadiene into 1-butene; supplying a discharge stream from the first hydrogenation reactor to a first distillation column, supplying a lower discharge stream from the first distillation column including 2-butene and n-butane to a metathesis reactor, and supplying an upper discharge stream from the first distillation column including 1-butene and i-butane to a second distillation column; recovering an upper discharge stream the second distillation column including i-butane and recovering 1-butene from a lower discharge stream from the second distillation column; and producing propylene in the metathesis reactor, supplying a discharge stream from the metathesis reactor to a purification unit to recover propylene, and recycling an unreacted material to the metathesis reactor.

Method for preparing 1-butene and propylene

A method for preparing ethylene including: feeding a thermally cracked compressed stream to a first distillation apparatus selectively operating as a first deethanizer or a depropanizer; and feeding an overhead discharge stream of the first distillation apparatus to a second distillation apparatus. When the first distillation apparatus is operated as the first deethanizer, a bottom discharge stream of the second distillation apparatus is fed to a C2 separator. When the first distillation apparatus is operated as the depropanizer, the bottom discharge stream of the second distillation apparatus is passed through a third distillation apparatus and fed to the C2 separator.

Method for preparing ethylene

A method for preparing ethylene, including: passing a feed stream containing C1 and C2 hydrocarbon compounds through a first heat exchanger and feeding the feed stream passed through the first heat exchanger to a second gas-liquid separator; feeding a part of a bottom discharge stream of the second gas-liquid separator to a demethanizer, passing an overhead discharge stream of the second gas-liquid separator through a second heat exchanger, feeding the overhead discharge stream of the second gas-liquid separator passed through the second heat exchanger to a third gas-liquid separator; feeding a bottom discharge stream of the third gas-liquid separator to the demethanizer; feeding a bottom discharge stream of the demethanizer to a C2 separator; feeding an overhead discharge stream of the C2 separator to a second compressor; passing a part of a compressed discharge stream of the second compressor through the first heat exchanger and feeding the part of the compressed discharge stream of the second compressor passed through the first heat exchanger to the second compressor as a first circulation flow; passing a part of the compressed discharge stream of the second compressor through the second heat exchanger and feeding the part of the compressed discharge stream of the second compressor passed through the second heat exchanger to a first compressor as a second circulation flow; and feeding a compressed discharge stream of the first compressor to the second compressor, and an apparatus for preparing ethylene for implementing the same.

Method for preparing ethylene and apparatus for preparing ethylene

A method for quenching a pyrolysis product, including: supplying a discharge stream from a liquid decomposition furnace to a first quench tower; supplying an upper discharge stream from the first quench tower to a second quench tower; supplying a discharge stream from a first gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower; and supplying a discharge stream from a second gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower.
