Method and system for obtaining one or more olefins

The invention relates to a method (100, 200) of obtaining one or more olefins, in which, using an oxidative coupling of methane (10), a gas mixture comprising hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide and higher-boiling hydrocarbons than methane is formed and is subjected to a low-temperature separation (1...

Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method (100, 200) of obtaining one or more olefins, in which, using an oxidative coupling of methane (10), a gas mixture comprising hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide and higher-boiling hydrocarbons than methane is formed and is subjected to a low-temperature separation (1-5), characterized in that the low-temperature separation (1-5) is conducted using a rectification column (2) having a first separation region (21), a second separation region (22) arranged above the first separation region (21), and a condenser-evaporator (23), wherein the gas mixture is cooled, fed at least partly as first separation feed into the first separation region (21) and subjected to a first rectification in the first separation region (21) to form a first tops gas and a first bottoms liquid, wherein, using a first proportion of the first tops gas in the condenser-evaporator (23), a condensate which is recycled to the first separation region and, using a second proportion of the tops gas, a second separation feed which is fed into the second separation region (22) are formed, and wherein the second separation feed is subjected to a second rectification in the second separation region to form a second tops gas and a second bottoms liquid.
