Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the above-mentioned reactive distillation technology still has certain defects: the top of the reactive distillation tower is close to the mixture of ethyl acetate, ethanol and water ternary azeotrope, and a series of follow-up rectification towers and extraction towers are required to be further separated to obtain high Pure ethyl acetate product, and there will be back-mixing of intermediate components in the conventional multi-component rectification process, and the thermodynamic efficiency is low
This leads to high energy consumption and equipment investment, which is not conducive to improving economic benefits

Abstract

The invention discloses a technological method for synthesizing ethyl acetate by using reactive rectifying bulkhead tower and a device thereof. The reactive rectifying bulkhead tower is provided with a piece of bulkhead along the vertical direction in the conventional rectifying tower, and the bottom of the right side of the bulkhead is closed. The whole tower is divided into five zones. Ethanol and acetate which are taken as raw materials are put into the tower from the top space of a tower kettle, and carry out esterification to generate ethyl acetate under the action of a catalyst of acidic cation exchange resin in the reaction section and at the lower part of the tower kettle. After the condensation and phase separation of the gas phase at the top of the tower, water phase is discharged from the system, and ester phase is driven into the top of the tower as reflux. Ethyl acetate with high purity is obtained at the bottom of the siding stripping section, and the bottom of the tower has no discharging material. The method gives a full play of the advantages of the bulkhead tower and reaction rectifying, which can cause the esterification and the product purification to be realized in the same tower and can reduce equipment investment and energy consumption effectively.
