This invention relates to the field of
hydrogen peroxide technology and discloses a
system and method for preparing
hydrogen peroxide. The
system includes a hydrogenation unit, an oxidation unit, and an extraction unit connected in sequence. The hydrogenation unit includes a fixed-
bed reactor, comprising: a reactor body; a
liquid phase inlet, N
gas phase inlets, a
liquid phase outlet, and a
gas phase outlet arranged sequentially from bottom to top on the reactor body; and N catalyst
bed sections and a gas-liquid separation component arranged sequentially from bottom to top within the reactor body; N is a natural number and N≥2; a gas
distributor is provided below each catalyst
bed section and is connected to the
gas phase inlet; the gas-liquid separation component is divided into a two-phase zone, a
liquid phase zone, and a gas phase zone; the liquid phase zone has a liquid phase outlet; and the gas phase zone has a gas phase outlet. Using this
system to prepare
hydrogen peroxide can significantly improve hydrogenation efficiency and hydrogenation selectivity, has good safety, effectively improves the selectivity of the
hydrogenation reaction and the efficiency of the device, and extends the service life of the catalyst.
