example 1

[0024] Example 1: The boron trifluoride raw material gas (1) enters the complexation tower from the bottom, and forms a 1:1 boron trifluoride·anisole ether compound with the excess anisole flowing down from the top of the tower. The complexation reaction of boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent is an exothermic reversible reaction, and the reaction will naturally proceed in the direction of complexation when the temperature is lowered to 10-15°C. When the complex is heated to 140-150°C, it will be decomposed into boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent. In the chemical exchange system at 15-20°C, the cracked boron trifluoride gas rises from the bottom of the exchange tower, and contacts with the boron trifluoride-anisole complex descending from the top of the tower in countercurrent, and an exchange reaction occurs. Reciprocate, and finally get more than 95% enrichment at the bottom of the exchange tower 10 Product B.

[0025]Example 2: The boron trifluoride raw material gas enters the complexation tower from the bottom, and forms a 1:1 boron trifluoride·anisole ether compound with the excess anisole flowing down from the top of the tower. The complexation reaction between boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent is an exothermic reversible reaction. When the temperature is lowered to 15-20°C, the reaction will naturally proceed in the direction of complexation. When the complex is heated to 150-160°C, it will be decomposed into boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent. In the chemical exchange system at 20-25°C, the cracked boron trifluoride gas rises from the bottom of the exchange tower, and contacts with the boron trifluoride-anisole complex descending from the top of the tower in countercurrent, and an exchange reaction occurs. Reciprocate, and finally get more than 95% enrichment at the bottom of the exchange tower 10 Product B.

[0026] Example 3: The boron trifluoride raw material gas enters the complexing tower from the bottom, and forms a 1:1 boron trifluoride·anisole ether compound with the excess anisole flowing down from the top of the tower. The complexation reaction of boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent is an exothermic reversible reaction, and the temperature is lowered to 20-25°C, and the reaction naturally proceeds in the direction of complexation. When the complex is heated to 160-170°C, it will be decomposed into boron trifluoride and anisole complexing agent. In the chemical exchange system at 25-30°C, the cracked boron trifluoride gas rises from the bottom of the exchange tower, and contacts with the boron trifluoride-anisole complex descending from the top of the tower in countercurrent, and an exchange reaction occurs. Reciprocate, and finally get more than 95% enrichment at the bottom of the exchange tower 10 Product B.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and device for separately producing enriched boron-10 (10B) by using multiple serial towers. In the method, enriched production of 10B is realized through multiple chemical exchange towers which are connected in series. The production device mainly comprises a complexing tower, serial chemical exchange towers, and a cracking tower, wherein the tower top of the cracking tower is provided with a condenser; the tower bottom of the cracking tower is provided with a heating kettle; and continuous flow of a liquid phase is realized among the complexing tower, each chemical exchange tower and the cracking tower through a pump. A liquid phase sprayed out of the complexing tower is pumped to the top of the first chemical exchange tower through a pump, and is pumped to the top of the second chemical exchange tower after flowing out of the bottom of the first chemical exchange tower till the liquid phase flowing out of the bottom of the last exchange tower is pumped to the top of the cracking tower; and a liquid phase flowing out of the bottom of the cracking tower is subjected to heat exchange through a heat exchanger, and is pumped to the top of the complexing tower through a pump, so that circular flow of the liquid phase among serial towers is formed. Due to the adoption of the method and the device, production of enriched 10B is realized through multiple serial towers, the abundance of the boron-10 is over 95 percent, and the abundance requirement of an enriched 10B product in the fields of nuclear power, military industry, aerospace and the like is met.
