Problems solved by technology

[0006] But the above-mentioned reactive distillation technology still has certain defects: excess methanol and reaction product water and a small amount of sulfuric acid are all extracted from the tower kettle, and cannot be effectively separated. After the reactive distillation tower, the reaction product must be further separated through the subsequent rectification tower, and there will be remixing of the intermediate component methanol in the conventional distillation process, and the thermodynamic efficiency is low, especially when the excess of methanol is large. The disadvantage is more obvious
This leads to high energy consumption and equipment investment, which is not conducive to improving economic benefits

Abstract

The invention discloses a process method for synthesizing methyl acetate by utilizing a reactive distillation partition wall tower and a device thereof. The reactive distillation partition wall tower is provided with a partition wall in a vertical direction inside the prior distillation tower, the upper part of the right side of the partition wall is sealed and the whole tower is divided into six areas. Acetic acid is added from the top of an area (2), a catalyst of concentrated sulfuric acid is added from the bottom of the area (2), excessive methanol is added from the middle part of an area (3), the esterification reaction is performed in the area (3) to produce methyl acetate, a methyl acetate product with high purity is produced at the tower top, the excessive methanol is reclaimed on the lateral line, and waste water containing a small amount of sulphuric acid is discharged from a column reactor. The process gives full play to the advantages of the partition wall tower and the reactive distillation, and ensures that the esterification, the product extraction and the reclaiming of the excessive methanol are realized in one towel, thereby greatly reducing the investment on equipment and energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reactive distillation process and its device, in particular to a novel process and device for synthesizing methyl acetate using a rectifying column next to the wall, which can synthesize methyl acetate, product separation and unreacted The recovery of the coal is combined in one tower. Background technique [0002] Methyl acetate is widely used in industry. It is one of the raw materials for carbonylation to produce acetic anhydride, and it is also a good solvent. The main production method is the esterification reaction of acetic acid and methanol under the action of a catalyst to obtain methyl acetate. ester. The reaction is a reversible reaction, mainly limited by the equilibrium constant, which is 5.2. Said catalyst is an acidic catalyst, which can be hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid, or acidic resin. [0003] The traditional production process of methyl acetate is: add aceti...
