METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUS PRODUCTION OF AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS AND DIVINYL IN PRESENCE OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE INITIATOR Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC C07C1/20 C07C11/167 C07C15/02 B01J23/02 B01J23/06 B01J29/40 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method for simultaneous production of aromatic hydrocarbons and divinyl via catalytic conversion of bioethanol flowing on a zeolite-containing catalyst HZSM-5 at temperature of 390-420°C, volume rate of the liquid hydrocarbon of 2-4 h^-1. The method is characterised by that in order to increase output of divinyl in the contact gas, a layer of a K₂O-ZnO/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst is placed over the layer of the HZSM-5 catalyst with weight ratio of the layers of (0.5-1):1 and the following content of components of the top layer: K₂O - 0.1-0.25%, ZnO - 22-24%, γ-Al₂O₃ - the balance. The process is carried out in the presence of a hydrogen peroxide initiator, taken in amount of 1 wt % in the starting bioethanol.

EFFECT: method increases selectivity of the process of converting bioethanol and particularly enables to simultaneously obtain high content of divinyl in the gaseous phase and aromatic hydrocarbons in the liquid phase.
