The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of
hydrofluoroolefin, in particular to a method for preparing 2, 3, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropene, which comprises the following steps: carrying out fluorination reaction on 3, 3, 3-trifluoro-2-chloropropene and excessive
hydrogen fluoride under the action of a catalyst to generate a first mixture flow containing 1, 1, 1, 2, 2-
pentafluoropropane (245cb), and separating the first mixture flow from the first mixture flow to obtain the 2, 3, 3, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropene. Then directly introducing the first mixture flow into a dehydrofluorination reactor for
gas phase dehydrofluorination reaction to generate a second mixture flow containing 2, 3, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropene,
hydrogen fluoride and unreacted raw materials, finally condensing the second mixture to remove
hydrogen chloride, condensing and recycling
hydrogen fluoride to obtain a third mixture flow, and rectifying the third mixture flow to obtain 2, 3, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropene. And 3, 3, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropene. According to the invention, unavoidable process wastes in the prior art are converted into recyclable reaction raw materials, the
environmental protection and
economic pressure of by-product treatment in the prior art is eliminated, meanwhile, the purpose of
continuous flow reaction is effectively realized, and the
process control difficulty and the process cost are reduced.
