Embodiment 1

[0086] Example 1 Except that instead of using condensed water in the condenser of the initial distillation column and the condenser of the heavy fraction removal column [D], an aqueous heat transfer medium with a temperature of 66° C. was used, other operations were the same as those of the comparative example. In addition, in an embodiment of the present invention, a closed-loop system using an aqueous heat transfer medium ( figure 2 ) connects the Beckmann rearrangement step with the cyclohexanone purification step and then with the ammonium sulfate crystallizer. The aqueous heat transfer medium is first fed into the condenser of the heavy ends removal column and then into the condenser of the initial distillation column. In the condenser of the heavy ends removal column, the aqueous heat transfer medium was heated from 66°C to 79°C. The aqueous heat transfer medium is further heated to 90°C in the condenser of the initial distillation column.

Abstract

The invention relates to a continuous method for purification of cyclohexanone by using a mild water-based heat transfer medium as a cryogen, and provides the continuous method for purification of cyclohexanone. The method comprises a distillation zone, tower top vapor is removed and partially condensed, and the water-based heat transfer medium with the entering temperature in a range of 50 DEG C to 120 DEG C is used as the condensation cryogen.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a continuous process for the purification of cyclohexanone. Cyclohexanone is used as a raw material for the preparation of caprolactam. In a continuous process for the preparation of caprolactam, the purification of cyclohexanone is an integral part of the process. Another feature of the process for the preparation of caprolactam is that an ammonium sulfate solution is formed and ammonium sulfate crystals can be obtained from this solution during the crystallization step. technical background [0002] A continuous process for the preparation of caprolactam refers to the integration of process steps for the preparation of caprolactam. Thus, the process for producing caprolactam also contains those process steps required for the production of caprolactam intermediates. The methods of the present invention are not limited to any one particular lactam. The lactam is preferably ε-caprolactam. [0003] It is well known t...
