Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantages of this technology are: (1) The reaction pressure and hydrogen ester molar ratio are high, and the hourly space velocity of the ester liquid is too low; (2) The temperature rise of the catalyst bed is easy to be too large during the one-step hydrogenation reaction process, resulting in the selectivity of by-products increase and deactivation of the catalyst

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing tetrahydrofuran by using dimethyl maleate as a raw material and adopting two sections of hydrogenation processes. In a first hydrogenation section, a supported hydrogenation catalyst taking VIII-group metals as active ingredients is adopted; and in a second hydrogenation section, a supported CuO catalyst is adopted. The method has the advantages of high catalytic reactivity, relatively higher catalyst stability, high tetrahydrofuran selectivity, low byproduct selectivity and the like; when continuously operated for not longer than 1,500 hours, the percent conversion of the raw material reaches 100 percent, the tetrahydrofuran selectivity reaches over 95 percent, and the selectivity of a byproduct normal butanol is below 4 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical industry, in particular to a method for hydrogenating dimethyl maleate to produce tetrahydrofuran. Background technique [0002] Tetrahydrofuran (THF) has the characteristics of low toxicity, low boiling point, and good fluidity. It is an important raw material for organic synthesis and an excellent solvent, and has a wide range of uses. The most important use of THF is to produce polytetrahydrofuran glycol (PTMEG). According to rough statistics, more than 80% of THF in the world is used to produce PTMEG, and PTMEG is mainly used to produce elastic spandex fibers. Since the domestic spandex anti-dumping, the domestic spandex industry has begun to recover, coupled with the rise in product prices has attracted domestic enterprises to accelerate the pace of production capacity expansion, currently PTMEG is in short supply.
