Intro to Products

ETHYL BENZENE

To produce Styrene Monomer (SM), ETHYL BENZENE is synthesized with ETHYLENE and BENZENE through catalytic reaction.

CAS number : 100-41-4 / Molecular formula : C8H10

Plant processes

This plant uses benzene and ethylene as feedstock to ethyl benzene through alkylation, and dehydrogenates this ethyl benzene to produce styrene monomers.

  • Ethyl Benzene Manufacturing Unit
    This unit consists of the reaction system that produces ethyl benzene and by products through the catalytic reaction between benzene and ethylene; the refining system that fractionates high-purity ethyl benzene from unresponsive ethylene, benzene and other by products and the regenerating system that regenerates the reactor catalyst.
  • Styrene Monomer Manufacturing Unit
    This unit consists of the reaction system that passes the ethyl benzene, produced by the ethyl benzene manufacturing unit, through the fixed-bed catalytic layer, using high-temperature diluted steam for dehydrogenation, and the refining system that fractionates high-purity styrene monomer from crude styrene coming from the reactor (intermediate product).
Product uses

This product is used as SM raw material and chemical agent.
