Embodiment Construction

[0038] The method of the present invention will be further described below by taking the flow shown in FIG. 2 as an example. The scope of the present invention is not limited by the examples, and the scope of the present invention is set forth in the claims.

[0039] As shown in Figure 2, a preheater is added to the feed pipeline of the dehydration tower of the existing production device, and a tube-and-tube heat exchanger is used for heating with medium-pressure steam of about 1.0MpaG (gauge pressure). The number of trays in the dehydration tower is 30, the temperature at the top of the tower is 60-65°C, the temperature at the bottom of the tower is 160-170°C, and the pressure inside the tower is 20-40kPa.

[0040] The concentrated ethylene glycol aqueous solution obtained from the final effect evaporator is introduced into the preheater and heated to its bubble point temperature, 140°C; then the ethylene glycol aqueous solution is introduced from the 16th to 18th plates of t...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for dewatering treatment in glycol preparation. Wherein, heating the concentrated glycol aqueous solution obtained from multi-effect evaporation system in a preheater to its bubble point or higher; in dewatering tower, taking dewater treatment. This invention solves the problems of reboiler coking, prolongs service lifetime, and can increase the tower load more than 30% by adding a little piece of devices.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing ethylene glycol, in particular to a method for dehydration treatment in the production of ethylene glycol. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol (EG) is an important organic chemical raw material with a wide range of uses, mainly used in the production of polyester resin, and can also be directly used as a coolant and antifreeze. [0003] At present, the industrial preparation of ethylene glycol adopts the non-catalytic hydration process of direct hydration method, and is prepared by hydrolysis, dehydration and rectification of ethylene oxide. The method does not use a catalyst, the molar ratio of reaction feed water and ethylene oxide is 20-25: 1, the reaction temperature is 150-200° C., the reaction pressure is 0.8-2.0Mpa, and the conversion rate of ethylene oxide is close to 100%. Diol selectivity is about 88%. During the reaction, since the reactivity of ethylene glycol and ethylene oxide is...
