OLEFIN AND SINGLE-RING AROMATIC HYDROCARBON PRODUCTION METHOD, AND ETHYLENE PRODUCTION DEVICE

摘要

A method for producing an olefin and a monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon of the present invention includes a dicyclopentadiene removal treatment step of removing dicyclopentadienes having a dicyclopentadiene skeleton from a feedstock oil which is a thermally-cracked heavy oil obtained from an apparatus for producing ethylene and which has a 90 volume% distillate temperature, as a distillation characteristic, of 390°C or lower; and a cracking and reforming reaction step of obtaining a product containing an olefin and a monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon by bringing the feedstock oil having a content of dicyclopentadienes adjusted to 10% by weight or less by treating a part or all of the feedstock oil through the dicyclopentadiene removal step into contact with a catalyst and reacting the feedstock oil.
