A Solvent composition, particularly useful for the separation of hydrocarbons by extractive distillation and / or washing Liquid; and a process for the separation of hydrocarbonsIn the Solvent using such composition

摘要

The novel solvent for the separation of hydrocarbons by extractive distillation, by gas-liquid scrubbing or by liquid-liquid scrubbing contains N-methyl-morpholin-3-one. The solvent can be used as a mixture with water and/or other organic solvents, for example ethylene glycol. The novel solvent is used above all for the separation of diolefins from mixtures containing them, and also for the separation of olefinic hydrocarbons from mixtures containing them, and likewise for the separation of aromatic hydrocarbons from mixtures containing them.
