Problems solved by technology

Due to the severe carbonization of methanol by concentrated sulfuric acid, the service life of the catalyst is short
At the same time, the dehydration reaction will produce a large amount of residual acid and waste water, which will seriously pollute the environment.
The reaction intermediate methyl hydrogen sulfate is highly toxic and endangers human health

Abstract

The present invention provides a fluidization and conversion method using methanol to prepare dimethyl ether. The methanol material, cooled regenerated catalyst and pre-lifting medium orderly enter a circulating fluidized bed. At a temperature between 150 and 500 DEG C, under pressure between 0.1MPa and 1.0MPa and at a liquid space-time speed of 0.5 to 4 hours, the -1, catalyst and methanol material react with a weight ratio of 1 to 20. In the reaction process, heat is removed from the circulating fluidized bed; the reaction material flow and catalyst to be generated are separated. Wherein, the target product dimethyl ether can be got by separation of the reaction material flow. The catalyst to be generated is recycled orderly after gas extraction, regeneration and cooling. Compared with a fixed-bed, the circulating fluidized bed of the method provides better gas-solid contact, and has gas-solid phase medium and high heat transfer efficiency. Therefore, the method improves the conversion rate of methanol and the selectivity of dimethyl ether product.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for preparing dimethyl ether by gas-phase catalytic dehydration of methanol, more specifically, a method for preparing dimethyl ether by using a fluidized catalytic conversion method to carry out gas-phase catalytic dehydration of methanol. Background technique [0002] Dimethyl ether is a colorless gas or compressed liquid with a slight ethereal odor, non-toxic and non-corrosive, and will not form peroxides when exposed to air for a long time. So far, DME production is modest. As an environmentally friendly fuel, it has only been proposed in recent years, and it has immediately attracted widespread attention from the energy sector all over the world. The physical and chemical properties of dimethyl ether are similar to those of liquefied petroleum gas, and it can become liquid at relatively low pressure. The infrastructure of liquefied gas can be used for dimethyl ether, and long-distance transportation can use oil t...
