Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing glycol by using oxalic ester, which mainly solves the technical problems of low target product selectivity and low hydrogen utilization in the prior art. The method uses the oxalic ester as a raw material, and comprises the following steps: a) raw materials of fresh hydrogen, circulating gas I, circulating gas II and dimethyl oxalate first is fed in a reactor to be contacted with copper-containing catalyst to generate glycol-containing reactor effluent I; b) the reactor effluent I is subject to gas-liquid separation, the liquid-phase effluent is separated to obtain a glycol product, and the gas-phase effluent is separated into a gaseous phase effluent I which is used as circulating gas I and a gaseous phase effluent II; and c) the gaseous phase effluent II is fed to a hydrogen recycle system to obtain circulating gas II and analytic gas, and the circulating gas II is mixed with the fresh hydrogen for continuous recycling, wherein the molar ratio of the gaseous phase effluent I to the fresh hydrogen is 0.5-100:1, and the molar ratio of the gaseous phase effluent II to the gaseous phase effluent I is 0.01-5:1. In the invention, the technical problem is well solved, and the method can be used in the industrial production of increasing production of the glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing ethylene glycol from oxalate, in particular to a method for hydrogenating dimethyl oxalate or diethyl oxalate to produce ethylene glycol. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol (EG) is an important organic chemical raw material, mainly used in the production of polyester fiber, antifreeze, unsaturated polyester resin, lubricant, plasticizer, nonionic surfactant and explosives, etc. It can be used in industries such as paint, photographic developer, brake fluid and ink, as a solvent and medium for ammonium perborate, and for the production of special solvents such as glycol ether, etc., and has a wide range of uses. [0003] At present, large-scale ethylene glycol production at home and abroad adopts the process route of direct hydration or pressurized hydration. This process is to prepare a mixed aqueous solution of ethylene oxide and water at a ratio of 1:20 to 22 (molar ratio) in a fixed bed. Re...
