Problems solved by technology

Because the reaction process is limited by thermodynamics, a large amount of water is generated in the reaction, and acetal, ethanol and water can form an azeotrope, which makes separation difficult, so the conversion rate of the batch reaction is low, the production cycle is long, and the energy consumption is high. , in addition, the catalyst used is difficult to recover and highly corrosive

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and equipment for producing acetal through catalytic distillation. Through the application of a catalytic rectifying tower and an ethanol recycle tower, the method comprises the following specific steps of: (1) feeding a raw material, namely ethanol into a lower feeding hole of the catalytic rectifying tower after passing through a metering pump and a preheater, feeding a raw material, namely an acetaldehyde solution into an upper feeding hole of the catalytic rectifying tower after passing through the metering pump, wherein aldolization happens between the raw material acetaldehyde and ethanol at the middle part of the catalytic rectifying tower, and carrying out vapor-liquid mass transferring; (2) condensing mixed vapor of acetal and ethanol obtained at the top of the catalytic rectifying tower through a condenser, wherein a part of the condensed mixed vapor flows back to the top of the catalytic rectifying tower through a reflux pump, and collecting the remaining mixed vapor out as product; and (3) pumping waste water discharged out at the bottom of the catalytic rectifying tower into the middle part of the ethanol recovery tower to carry out distillation and separation, and condensing azeotrope steam of ethanol and water obtained at the top of the tower through the condenser, wherein a part of the condensed azeotrope steam flows back to the top of the ethanol recovery tower by depending on gravity, and the remaining condensed azeotrope steam flows back to the ethanol inlet of the catalytic rectifying tower for cyclic utilization. The device has the advantages of being high in yield, small in circulating amount, low in energy consumption and the like.
