Abstract

The invention relates to a reactive distillation method and a reactive distillation device for producing butanol by hydrogenating butyraldehyde. The device comprises an evaporator, a reactive distillation tower, a butanol distillation tower, an n-butanol and iso-butanol separation tower, a condenser, a reboiler, a compressor, a pump, relevant feeding pipelines and pipelines used for connecting the devices. The method and the device have the characteristics that the reactive distillation technology and devices are adopted, light components are separated at a tower top during a process of carrying out hydrogenation reaction of butyraldehyde in the reactive distillation tower; n-butanol and iso-butanol can be prepared by subsequent separation; a unit for producing butanol by using butyraldehyde and a unit for purifying, distilling and separating are operated and coupled in one device for simultaneously operating; reaction products are purified after the reaction is completed; the device investment is saved; the subsequent operation fee is also reduced; the quality purity of n-butanol prepared by separating through the subsequent butanol distillation tower and the n-butanol and iso-butanol separation tower can reach 99.5%; the quality purity of iso-butanol can reach 99%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of butanol production, in particular to a reactive distillation method and device for producing butanol by hydrogenating butyraldehyde. Background technique [0002] Butanol is an important basic organic chemical raw material. It is mainly used as a raw material for resins, paints, adhesives and plasticizers. It can also be used as an extractant for oils, spices and medicines and an additive for alkyd resin coatings. It can be used as a raw material for defoaming agent, detergent, dehydrating agent and synthetic perfume for mineral processing. [0003] The production methods of butanol can be divided into fermentation method, acetaldehyde method and oxo synthesis method. Due to the long process of the fermentation method and the acetaldehyde method, the equipment is severely corroded and extremely uneconomical, and the existing devices have been basically eliminated. The main method of butanol production t...
