Provided are a device and method for separating N-methylpyrrolidine, water and
tetrahydrofuran. The device comprises a crude product
dehydration working section and a product refining working section. The crude product
dehydration working section comprises a crude product intermittent column, a first condenser, a
phase splitting tank, a
backflow head and the like. The crude product intermittent column comprises a crude
steaming column reactor and a crude
steaming column. The product refining working section comprises a refining intermittent column, a second condenser, a transition
cut fraction receiving tan and a product receiving tank. The refining intermittent column comprises a rectifying column reactor and a rectifying column located at the top of the rectifying column reactor. The crude product
dehydration working section is communicated with the rectifying column reactor of the product refining working section through a crude product
storage tank communicated with the crude
steaming column reactor. A two-column intermittent rectifying process is adopted in the method, water and
tetrahydrofuran are taken out through the crude product intermittent column, left raw materials are purified through the product refining working section, and high-purity N-methylpyrrolidine is obtained. The problems that a traditional device and technique are large in
energy consumption, low in yield, high in production cost and troublesome in aftertreatment are solved.
