Abstract: A method for preventing coking in a reaction system for producing light olefins from crude oil by catalytic cracking includes: reducing temperature of oil gas discharged from a reactor, adsorbing a condensed liquid-phase oil by a spent catalyst, allowing a cooled oil gas to enter a disengager for gas-solid separation, and delivering most of the spent catalyst to the disengager. The above method is taken to avoid coking of the reaction system and to ensure stable operation of a device for a long period of time; and the high-temperature potential heat of the oil gas is fully utilized, making the energy utilization of the whole system more reasonable, and achieving the effects of energy saving and emission reduction.
