Disclosed is a method of recovering 1,3-butadiene from a C4 stream containing butane, isobutane, 2-butene, 1-butene, isobutene, butadiene and acetylene. The process of recovering highly pure 1,3-butadiene includes acetylene conversion for selectively converting acetylene through liquid-phase hydrogenation, so that the acetylene content is decreased to 70 wt ppm or less, and 1,3-butadiene extraction using an extractive distillation column, a pre-separator, a solvent stripping column, a solvent recovery column, and a purification column. Through the acetylene conversion, the concentration of vinylacetylene is decreased to 70 wt ppm or less, after which 1,3-butadiene is recovered using only one extractive distillation column, thereby considerably decreasing the degree of utility and the loss of streams in the course of extraction. The number of units necessary for the process is decreased, thus remarkably reducing the time during which impurities can accumulate in a processing unit.

Process for 1,3-butadiene separation from a crude C4 stream with acetylene converter

A method of producing a mixed manganese ferrite catalyst, and a method of preparing 1,3-butadiene using the mixed manganese ferrite catalyst. Specifically, a method of producing a mixed manganese ferrite catalyst through a coprecipitation method which is performed at a temperature of 10&#x2dc;40&#xb0; C., and a method of preparing 1,3-butadiene using the mixed manganese ferrite catalyst through an oxidative dehydrogenation reaction, in which a C4 mixture containing n-butene, n-butane and other impurities is directly used as reactants without performing additional n-butane separation process or n-butene extraction. 1,3-butadiene can be prepared directly using a C4 mixture including n-butane at a high concentration as a reactant through an oxidative hydrogenation reaction without performing an additional n-butane separation process, and 1,3-butadiene, having high activity, can be also obtained in high yield for a long period of time.
