Abstract

The invention relates to a method for recovering methanol in a coal-based synthetic gas-to-glycol process. The method comprises the following steps: a crude methanol flow containing methyl nitrite, methyl formate and dimethyl carbonate enters a nitrite recovery tower, methyl nitrite is recovered from the top of the recovery tower, methyl nitrite removed crude methanol enters a light component removal tower, methyl formate is removed from the top of the light component removal tower, methyl formate removed crude methanol contains a small amount of dimethyl carbonate, methanol and dimethyl carbonate are separated to obtain methanol for cycle use, and dimethyl carbonate is extracted as a product to be used in industrial production of glycol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recovering methanol in the process of producing ethylene glycol from coal-based synthesis gas. Background technique [0002] CO normal pressure gas-phase catalytic coupling to prepare dimethyl oxalate (DMO) reaction is mainly divided into two steps of coupling and oxidative esterification, the product of oxidative esterification methyl nitrite (MN) is the oxygen carrier of the coupling reaction and The intermediate, the NO in the tail gas of the coupling reaction is the reactant of the oxidative esterification reaction, so the matching of the coupling reaction and the oxidative esterification reaction is the key to realize the green and pollution-free circulation system. [0003] Coupling reaction equation: [0004] 2CH 3 ONO+2CO→(COOCH 3 ) 2 +2NO [0005] Oxygenated esterification reaction equation: [0006] [0007] The methyl nitrite generated by the oxidative esterification is returned to the coupling ...
