Abstract
A process for separating 1-butene from a C4 raffinate gas composition includes introducing the C4 raffinate gas composition to a reactor containing an adsorbent material and passing the C4 raffinate gas composition through the adsorbent material; adsorbing the 1-butene from the C4 raffinate gas composition onto the adsorbent material to separate the 1-butene from the C4 raffinate gas composition and form a residue gas composition; and desorbing the 1-butene by heating the adsorbent material after the adsorbing to form the 1-butene and regenerate the adsorbent material. The adsorbent material is at least one of a zeolite adsorbent and an alkali-modified zeolite adsorbent having at least 99% by weight selective towards 1-butene for adsorption in comparison to iso-butene and iso-butane.
