Example 6Conversion of Oxygenate Impurities in the Presence of Highly Unsaturated Olefin [00271] A feed comprising dimethyl ether, methyl acetylene, and propadiene was exposed to a commercial gas-phase methyl acetylene/propadiene (MAPD) hydrogenation catalyst obtained from SCI of Louisville, Ky., USA. The catalyst was reduced under hydrogen at 232 C. (450 F.) and 360 GHSV and then cooled to reaction temperature under helium flow. Hydrocarbon was fed to the reactor at a rate of 3.2 WHSV with respect to total catalyst weight (960 GHSV, with respect to total catalyst volume). The feed consisted of 84.13 mol % propylene, 9.56 mol % propane, 2.63 mol % methyl acetylene, 3.68 mol % propadiene and 183 ppm dimethyl ether. Hydrogen was co-fed to attain varying H2/MAPD (hydrogen to methyl acetylene and propadiene) molar ratios. [00272] TABLE 2 shows a typical hydrocarbon product distribution at 209 C. and approximately 310 psig. Under these conditions, MAPD conversion was about 87 mol %. In addition, a DME conversion of about 50 mol % was attained. [00273] Major oxygenate products included acetone and methyl isopropyl ether, which could be easily separated from light olefins in a depropanizer distillation column. TABLE 3 shows a product distribution from the converted DME.
