What is MTBE Plant Design and Production Overview about?
The document discusses designing an MTBE plant to produce 2000 tons of MTBE per day. It provides information on the raw materials (methanol, isobutylene, propane), thermodynamic properties, and describes the process. Methanol and a butenes stream containing isobutylene are reacted over a catalyst in an MTBE reactor. The product is purified in an MTBE column and methanol is recovered via a scrubber and recycling column. The process flow diagram shows the key equipment and streams.
