Description
Summary:In order to alleviate the current domestic oil shortage, China has studied the technology of using coal as the source to produce low carbon olefins, among which methanol to olefin (MTO) is an important process. Since the coke deposition of MTO catalyst is inevitable, the deactivated MTO catalysts need to be regenerated by continuous coke combustion to recover the activity. This paper used the actual industrial data to study the gas–solid two-phase fluidized bed of a SMTO regenerator and the coke combustion kinetics of the deactivated SAPO-34 catalyst, and established the mathematical model of the SMTO industrial regenerator. The kinetic parameters in the model were obtained and validated with different data, which showed that the model is reliable and can accurately predict the industrial reaction results and provide guidance for the SMTO production operation.
