Embodiment 1

[0029] Under the action of titanium-silicon molecular sieve catalyst, propylene and hydrogen peroxide react in methanol solution to form dilute propylene oxide solution, and the solution is removed through one or more steps to remove propylene and unreacted hydrogen peroxide contained in it, and the reaction extract is obtained. The crude propylene oxide used for distillation is shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for purifying epoxy propane. Aldehyde in the epoxy propane is separated through the continuous operation of a reactor and a rectifying tower, a titanium-silicate molecular sieve is used as a catalyst, methanol is used as a solvent, propylene and hydrogen peroxide are taken as raw materials for an epoxidation reaction, and then crude epoxy propane is obtained through one-step or multi-step treatment. The crude epoxy propane and a sulfur-containing compound solution are mixed through a static mixer, then enter the reactor to react for certain time, and enter the rectifying tower for refinement, and the retention time of a mixed solution of the crude epoxy propane and the sulfur-containing compound solution in the reactor is between 5min and 1h. The method has the advantages that after the crude epoxy propane is purified by the method, the aldehyde content of the obtained crude epoxy propane is lower than 100ppm, thereby achieving good effect.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for purifying propylene oxide, in particular to a method for separating acetaldehyde in propylene oxide through continuous operation of a reactor and a rectifying tower. Background technique [0002] Under the action of a catalyst, propylene and hydrogen peroxide react in a methanol solution to form a dilute propylene oxide solution, and the solution undergoes one or more steps to remove propylene and unreacted hydrogen peroxide contained in it, and obtain the crude epoxy to be used In propane, acetaldehyde is higher than 500ppm. [0003] After simple rectification, the purity of propylene oxide reaches more than 98%, but because acetaldehyde has a boiling point temperature close to that of propylene oxide and a similar relative volatility, so the method of rectification is used to further improve the purity of propylene oxide Almost impossible. [0004] Propylene oxide is mainly used to produce polyether polyols. Wh...
