Integrated process for the production of isononanol and stable / lubricating gasoline and diesel blending components
Abstract:
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a method for producing epoxide gasoline blending components includes cracking, in a steam cracker, a hydrocarbon feed to form a first ethylene stream, a first propylene stream, and a C4 stream comprising isobutene and butadiene; reacting, in a methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) unit, the C4 stream with a methanol stream to form MTBE and a butadiene-rich C4 stream; selectively hydrogenating, in a butadiene unit, the butadiene-rich C4 stream to form a butene-rich C4 stream including butene-1, cis-butene-2, and trans-butene-2; producing, in an isononanol unit, isononanol and an olefin-rich stream from the butene-rich C4 stream; and oxidizing the olefin-rich stream in an oxidation unit by combining the olefin-rich stream with an oxidant stream and a catalyst composition to produce the epoxide gasoline blending components.
