Abstract: Disclosed is a method for starting up fluidized reaction apparatus that is used for producing lower olefins from methanol or/and dimethyl ether. Said method includes after heating the catalyst bed of circulating fluidized catalytic reaction apparatus to above 200° C. or 300° C. by using a starting-up auxiliary heat source, feeding methanol or dimethyl ether raw materials to a reactor, whereby heat released by the reaction makes the temperature of the reaction system apparatus increase quickly to a designed temperature, consequently making the system reach normal operation state rapidly. Said method is suitable for starting up an exothermic fluidized catalytic reaction apparatus and can simplify the apparatus and operation, accordingly lowering the cost.

Abstract: A zeolite catalyst from ZSM-5 modified with phosphorus, rare earth elements and pore structure regulator is used for methanol/dimethyl ether conversion to light olefins.High temperature, non-recycling, continuous-running process is realized in the reactor system, comprising a dehydration reactor and several (2-n) adiabatic, fixed bed cracking reactors, loaded with the catalyst in multi-stage packing and operated in reaction regeneration cycles. The catalyst possesses high activity, high selectivity, good hydrothermal stability and long reaction life time.Operation of 100% methanol conversion and >85% C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 selectivity has been performed in a reactor system of the scale 0.7-1 ton CH.sub.3 OH/day for >600 hours on stream and with reaction time of single cycle >24 hours.
