Embodiment 1

[0068] Using corncobs as biomass raw materials, continuous biomass hydrolysis coupled with pervaporation separation to produce furfural, the schematic diagram of the process is shown in figure 1 .

[0069] 1. Biomass hydrolysis to obtain furfural-containing hydrolyzate

[0070]Add corncobs that have been mechanically crushed and have a particle size of less than 2 cm into the hydrolysis device 11, and add sulfuric acid solution with a concentration of 10 g / L. The volume ratio (solid-to-liquid ratio) of corncobs to sulfuric acid solution is 1:8. Turn on the stirring motor on the hydrolysis device for acid mixing operation, so that the sulfuric acid solution is evenly distributed and fully in contact with the corn cob. Start the heater of the hydrolysis device to maintain the temperature in the hydrolysis device at about 160°C for hydrolysis.

Embodiment 2

[0085] The production process of Example 2 is the same as that of Example 1. The difference from Example 1 is that after the temperature in the hydrolysis device is maintained at 160°C for 3 hours, the valve at the lower end of the hydrolysis device is opened to carry out the biomass hydrolysis coupling pervaporation separation process, and the feed liquid The concentration and temperature of furfural in storage tank 13 are 3.0wt% and 90°C respectively. The concentration of furfural in the aqueous furfural concentrate obtained through pervaporation membrane separation is 80.17wt%, and the actual yield of furfural is 93%.

Embodiment 3

[0087] Using sweet sorghum stalks as biomass raw materials, furfural is produced by intermittent biomass hydrolysis coupled with pervaporation separation. The process flow diagram is shown in figure 2 .

[0088] 1. Biomass hydrolysis to obtain furfural-containing hydrolyzate

[0089] Put mechanically pulverized sweet sorghum stalks with a particle size of less than 0.5 cm into the hydrolysis device 11 and add acetic acid solution with a concentration of 30 g / L. The volume ratio (solid-to-liquid ratio) of sweet sorghum to acetic acid solution is 1:10. Turn on the stirring motor on the hydrolysis device for acid mixing operation, so that the acetic acid solution is evenly distributed and fully in contact with the sweet sorghum stalks. Turn on the heater of the hydrolysis device, and the temperature in the hydrolysis device is maintained at about 160°C.

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for producing furfural by using a biomass hydrolysis coupling pervaporation separation technology. According to the device, a biomass hydrolysis unit is coupled with a pervaporation membrane separation unit by virtue of a filtering unit and is used for separating furfural produced in a hydrolysis device. The invention also relates to a method for producing the furfural by using the device and the biomass hydrolysis coupling pervaporation separation technology. According to the method, separation and concentration of the efficient in situ pervaporation membrane on furfural-containing hydrolysate of which the furfural concentration is more than 2wt% is carried out so as to obtain a furfural concentrated solution with high concentration. By using the method, the furfural produced in the biomass hydrolysis process can be removed in time, and the yield of the furfural is improved; and meanwhile, compared with other existing in situ separation technology (air stripping and liquid-liquid extraction), the method is pollution-free and low in energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of separation of hydrolyzed products in a biomass hydrolysis process, and relates to a device for producing furfural by coupling pervaporation separation with hydrolysis of biomass and a method for producing furfural through coupling pervaporation separation with the device. Background technique [0002] Furfural, also known as furfural, is an important biomass platform compound. There are more than 1,600 chemical products that can be directly or indirectly produced from it, and are widely used in petroleum, daily chemical, textile, pharmaceutical and other industries. [0003] At present, no effective chemical synthesis method for the production of furfural has been found, and it can only be obtained by hydrolyzing hemicellulose in biomass raw materials. Among them, the most commonly used biomass raw materials mainly come from a wide range of sources and are rich in hemicelluloses, such as corncobs, bagasse...
