Problems solved by technology

However, the methanol oxidative carbonylation process, whether it is a liquid phase method or a gas phase method, has the disadvantage that the catalyst is mainly composed of cuprous chloride or cupric chloride, and the deactivation is serious, which combines with the water generated in the reaction to form The hydrochloric acid is highly corrosive to equipment, resulting in high total investment in production equipment; at the same time, the chlorine ions in the product are difficult to remove, which affects the quality of the product; in addition, the process is carried out under relatively high pressure, the operating conditions are harsh, and the product is economical. Benefits are affected
However, the one-step method still has problems such as low raw material utilization rate, high catalyst requirements, and difficulty in large-scale equipment.

Abstract

The invention provides a process for co-producing dimethyl carbonate and dimethyl ether by a urea alcoholysis method. The method comprises the following steps: adding methanol and urea in a reaction device for reaction so as to generate methyl carbamate and by-produce ammonia; further reacting generated methyl carbamate with methanol so as to generate dimethyl carbonate and by-produce ammonia, wherein a part of dimethyl carbonate is decomposed to generate dimethyl ether; separating out a material containing dimethyl ether and a material containing dimethyl carbonate from a material discharged from the reaction device; separating out dimethyl ether from the material containing dimethyl ether; and separating out dimethyl carbonate from the material containing dimethyl carbonate.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a process for the co-production of dimethyl carbonate and dimethyl ether by alcoholysis of urea. 【Background technique】 [0002] Dimethyl Carbonate (Dimethyl Carbonate, DMC for short) is a new type of green chemical that has attracted much attention at home and abroad in recent years, and has been widely used in many fields. Dimethyl carbonate is a colorless, transparent, slightly odorous, slightly sweet liquid at room temperature, hardly soluble in water, but miscible with almost all organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and ketones. Because its molecule contains CH 3 -, CH 3 O-, CH 3 O-CO-, -CO- and other functional groups, so it has good reactivity, and can undergo methylation, carbonylation, methyl esterification and transesterification reactions with alcohols, phenols, amines, hydrazines, esters and other compounds. It can replace highly toxic methylating reagents and carbonylating reagents (such as phosgene) an...
