The invention discloses a 20000-ton-annual-yield production technique of trimethylolpropane by a calcium method, which is divided into condensation, filtration, evaporation, calcium separation and rectification. The production technique is characterized by comprising the following steps: by using n-butyl aldehyde and formaldehyde as raw materials and industrial calcium hydroxide as an alkaline catalyst, carrying out condensation and formic acid neutralization reaction to obtain a trimethylolpropane crude product reaction solution containing byproducts ditrimethylolpropane and calcium formate;in the filtration process, separating out solid-phase residues from the reaction solution in a horizontal spiral centrifugal filtration mode; evaporating with a climbing-film evaporator, and sending the evaporative condensate back to the condensation technique; after entering the settling tank, continuously scraping calcium formate from the bottom of the settling tank, and recycling the calcium formate with a band filter; and carrying out rectification to obtain the trimethylolpropane product, wherein rectification column uses column refluxing and climbing film heating techniques, the deflector plate in the column is controlled, and meanwhile, a gas-liquid separator is mounted on a vacuum tube of the rectification column. The invention has the advantages of simple technical process, high labor rate, low production cost, energy saving and emission reduction.
