Problems solved by technology

At present, the 1,2-propanediol synthesis method widely used in industry at home and abroad is mainly produced by catalytic hydration of propylene oxide. This process mainly has follow-up equipment (evaporation, rectification) long process or harsh reaction conditions, high energy consumption, 1,2-propanediol has disadvantages such as low yield, and due to the non-renewability of petroleum resources, reserves are bound to be exhausted day by day, so it is imperative to produce 1,2-propanediol with renewable raw materials

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing 1,2,-propylene glycol by use of a biomass derivative; the method comprises the following steps: sequentially adding a reducing agent, a catalyst and a lactic acid solution into a hydrothermal reactor; filling nitrogen into the hydrothermal reactor and sealing the hydrothermal reactor; putting the hydrothermal reactor at 150 to 300 DEG C to react for 30-210min; after the reaction, filtering to obtain the 1, 2-propylene glycol. According to the method, the 1, 2-propylene glycol can be efficiently and highly-selectively synthesized, a renewable biomass derivative widely existing in the nature is used as a raw material, consumption of a large amount of conventional fossil fuels can be avoided, the need to prepare a complex high efficiency catalyst is eliminated, the method has the advantages of simple operation, high conversion rate, no need of pure hydrogen, and little pollution to the environment due to use of water as a hydrogen source and reaction solvent, and is beneficial to industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy and chemical industry, and in particular relates to a method for preparing 1,2-propanediol by utilizing a biomass derivative lactic acid. Background technique [0002] Since the beginning of the 21st century, with the pace of global modernization, fossil fuels have a potential energy shortage crisis, especially gasoline refined from petroleum, which is one of the reasons for the global oil crisis. Therefore, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and developing new renewable clean energy sources have attracted more and more attention. At present, the 1,2-propanediol synthesis method widely used in industry at home and abroad is mainly produced by catalytic hydration of propylene oxide. This process mainly has follow-up equipment (evaporation, rectification) long process or harsh reaction conditions, high energy consumption, 1,2-propanediol has disadvantages such as low yield, and due to the non-renew...
