ICC - Process Overview Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-overview/230-D.jpg
ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Products</h6> <p><b>Propylene</b>. Propylene, the main raw material consumed, is a colorless gas at room temperature. It is a low-boiling, flammable, and highly volatile gas, with molecular formula C3H6. Propylene reacts vigorously with oxidizing materials. It may be mildly irritating to the nose, throat, and respiratory tract; propylene has low acute toxicity from inhalation. PG Propylene has been mainly produced as ethylene manufacturing co-product (via steam cracking of paraffinic hydrocarbons) and by-product of petroleum refining (separation from refinery gas). Most recently, amid a tight propylene market, new and novel lower-cost chemical processes for on-purpose propylene production have emerged.</p> <p><b>Hydrogen</b>. The hydrogen molecule, H2, is the normal state of pure hydrogen, even though hydrogen can be found in its atomic form under specific conditions. It is a very stable molecule, not usually reactive under normal conditions. Essentially, molecular hydrogen is produced industrially by three different methods: hydrocarbons steam reforming, hydrocarbons partial oxidation and water electrolysis. Hydrogen can also be obtained as a by-product recovered in processes such as the manufacture of styrene from ethylbenzene.</p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Propane</b>. The feedstock to a PDH process unit is propane. Propane is recovered from propane-rich liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) streams from natural gas processing plants. Propane may also be obtained in smaller amounts as a by-product of petroleum refinery operations, such as hydrocracking and fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC).</p> <b>Chemicals</b>. </p>
ICC - Process Schematic Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-schematics/230-D.jpg
ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises four major sections: (1) Reaction; (2) CO2 Separation; (3) Gas Separation; and (4) Fractionation.</p><p>Reaction. Propane is fed into a depropanizer column to heavy impurities removal. The depropanizer distillate is vaporized, mixed with steam, and pre-heated before entering the reformer, where most of the propane conversion takes place. Next, the effluent is fed to the oxyreactor, where hydrogen is selectively combusted by oxygen. The process gas is cooled in a series of heat exchanges to recover heat to be utilized in the process and is compressed.</p><p>CO2 separation. The compressed gas is fed to an absorption column, where CO2 is removed in the bottoms by washing with an aqueous piperazine activated methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) solution. This stream is depressurized, liberating gases that are recycled to the absorption column. The CO2-rich liquid solution from the flash vessel is fed to the solvent regeneration column, which separates CO2 in the overheads and the MDEA solution in the bottoms, which is recycled to the absorption column.</p><p>Gas separation. The overhead stream of the absorption column is dried in a molecular sieve and fed to a low-temperature separation system (cold box) for the removal of lights. In this system, a hydrogen-rich stream is also obtained, which is purified in a pressure swing adsorber (PSA) unit to obtain high purity hydrogen byproduct.</p><p>Fractionation. The liquid fraction from the cold box is sent to the fractionation area, which consists of a deethanizer column for removal of lights and a P-P splitter, where polymer grade propylene is obtained. Unconverted propane from the P-P splitter bottoms is recycled to the reaction area.</p><p></p>
