Embodiment 1

[0061] Such as figure 1 As shown, a system for hydrogenating oxalate to ethylene glycol includes: circulating hydrogen compressor 1, inlet and outlet heat exchanger 2, mixer 3, feed guard bed 4, circulating hydrogen heater 5, hydrogenation Reactor 6, raw material preheater 7, reaction product intermediate heat exchanger 8, reaction discharge cooler 9 and gas-liquid separation tank 10;

[0062] The inlet and outlet heat exchanger 2 is sequentially connected to the mixer 3, the feed guard bed 4 and the circulating hydrogen heater 5, the raw material preheater 7 is connected to the mixer 3; the outlet of the circulating hydrogen heater 5 is connected to the inlet of the hydrogenation reactor 6, and the hydrogen gas enters The material 11 enters the hydrogenation reactor 6 through the inlet and outlet heat exchanger 2, the mixer 3, the feed guard bed 4 and the circulating hydrogen heater 5; Material guard bed 4;

[0063] The outlet of the hydrogenation reactor 6 is sequentially ...

Embodiment 2

[0078] The system is the same as in Example 1, the difference is only that the inlet and outlet heat exchanger 2, the mixer 3, the circulating hydrogen heater 5, and the hydrogenation reactor 6 are two in parallel: as figure 2 shown.

[0079] Using oxalate ester hydrogenation catalyst, the catalyst weight space velocity is 0.1~0.5h -1 , The maximum temperature rise of the bed is less than 10°C.

[0080] use as figure 2 Shown flow process, obtain the result of table 2.

[0081] The results show that, adopting the system and method of the present invention to prepare ethylene glycol, the maximum temperature rise of the isothermal reactor bed can be controlled within 10°C, the conversion rate of oxalate is greater than 98%, and the selectivity of ethylene glycol is greater than 90mol%. The heat removal and heat exchange network recovers energy, and the recovered energy is 1.985Mkcal / t ethylene glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ethylene glycol production, and more particularly, to a system and method for hydrogenating oxalate to produce ethylene glycol. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol is an important chemical raw material and strategic material, mainly used in the manufacture of synthetic fibers (polyester), polyester, polyester polyol, explosives, glyoxal, etc., and used as antifreeze, plasticizer, hydraulic fluid, surface active agents and solvents. It is widely used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, spices, coatings and other fields. [0003] The traditional ethylene glycol production method in the petrochemical industry is to react gas-phase ethylene with pure oxygen to generate ethylene oxide. After ethylene oxide is separated from the reaction output gas, it is hydrated with water to generate ethylene glycol. In the traditional ethylene glycol production method, the design and manufacture of the oxidation reacto...
