Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the traditional alcohol production method, more processes are used for two-tower atmospheric distillation and two-tower differential pressure distillation, that is, the combination of crude distillation tower and rectification tower. The rectification tower uses primary steam, and the top steam of the rectification tower is supplied to the crude tower as Heat source, high steam consumption, increases the production cost of anhydrous ethanol

Embodiment 1

[0056] use figure 1 The process flow shown is implemented. After exchanging heat between the fermented mash (with an ethanol content of 12% by weight) and steam at a temperature of 150° C., the fermented mash with a temperature of 75° C. was obtained. The 35% by weight of the above-mentioned fermented mash is sent to the first stripper 3 for distillation, and the 65% by weight of the fermented mash is sent to the second steamer after exchanging heat with the heavy components at the bottom of the tower discharged from the second stripper 4. Distill in the lifting column 4, and the heavy components at the bottom of the column after heat exchange are discharged.

[0057] After the light components at the top of the first stripper 3 exchange heat with the first raw material heat exchanger 1 (2, the heat exchange medium is fermented mash with an ethanol content of 12% by weight without preheating), the condensed The liquid component enters the light wine tank 7, and the uncondens...

Embodiment 2

[0061] Carry out according to the method in embodiment 1. the difference is:

[0062] 1) the weight of the fermented mash sent into the first stripper 3 is 40% by weight, and the weight of the fermented mash sent into the second stripper 4 is 60% by weight;

[0063] 2) After the stable cycle, the heavy components at the bottom of the first rectification tower 6 are circulated and exchanged with steam at 150°C. The pressure of the first rectification tower 6 is 5.4atm, the temperature at the top of the tower is 128°C, and the temperature at the bottom of the tower is 128°C. It is 148 ℃, the number of trays is 61, and the reflux ratio is 1: 2.3; the pressure of the first stripper 3 is 0.3 atm, and the tower top temperature is 67 ℃, and the bottom temperature is 83 ℃, and the reflux ratio at the bottom of the tower is 18: 1; the pressure of the second stripping tower 4 is 1.9 atm, and the tower top temperature is 102 ℃, and the tower bottom temperature is 112 ℃, and the reflux r...

Abstract

The invention provides a refining system of an ethanol-containing aqueous solution. The system comprises a heat carrier source, a stripping unit, a rectification unit, a gas-liquid separation unit, a heat exchange unit and a dewatering unit. The invention also provides a refining method of the ethanol-containing aqueous solution. The method comprises preheating the ethanol-containing aqueous solution, sending one part of the preheated ethanol-containing aqueous solution into a first stripping tower for distillation, sending the other part into a second stripping tower for distillation, condensing top light components of the first stripping tower and then sending into a first rectification tower for rectification, and sending top light components of the second stripping tower into a second rectification tower for rectification. The invention can thoroughly and reasonably utilize heat in the refining system, so as to effectively reduce energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system for refining an aqueous solution containing ethanol and a method for refining the aqueous solution containing ethanol. Background technique [0002] With the depletion of non-renewable energy sources such as global petroleum, renewable biomass energy has been gradually promoted on a large scale. The characteristics of the application of this technology are to use biomass raw materials (corn, cassava, etc.) water ethanol. [0003] In the traditional alcohol production method, more processes are used for two-tower atmospheric distillation and two-tower differential pressure distillation, that is, the combination of crude distillation tower and rectification tower. The rectification tower uses primary steam, and the top steam of the rectification tower is supplied to the crude tower as Heat source, steam consumption is high, which increases the production cost of absolute ethanol. Contents of the invention [0004] Th...
