Abstract

Abstract: Because of the trend of large-size of ethylene plant, increase in raw material price, and increasingly stringent environmental requirements, energy saving and emission reduction technologies for startup and shutdown of ethylene plants have become the focus of enterprises and researchers. This paper reviews the progress in this aspect and presents the application of dynamic simulation on this field.

Key words: ethylene plant, startup and shutdown, flare minimization, dynamic simulation

摘要： 随着我国乙烯装置的大型化、原料价格的增长以及环保要求的日益严格，乙烯装置开停车过程的节能减排研究逐渐受到乙烯企业和国内外研究者的重视。综述了国内外关于乙烯装置开停车过程中的节能减排技术，并对动态模拟在开停车节能减排中的应用进展进行了介绍。
