Abstract

A technology for producing fuel grade anhydrous butanol through a non-rectification double-membrane process belongs to the technical field of membrane separation. The technology comprises the following steps: separating a low-concentration butanol-water solution from a charged liquid through adopting a pervaporation alcohol-permselective membrane, concentrating the separated butanol-water solution, and carrying out purifying treatment (alcohol dehydration) on the obtained butanol concentrate through adopting a pervaporation water-permselective membrane to directly obtain fuel grade anhydrous butanol (> 99.2 wt.%). The technology does not need any high-energy consumption rectification or extraction separation units, so the production cost and the energy consumption of bio-fuels are substantially reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of membrane separation, and in particular relates to a process for producing fuel-grade anhydrous butanol by a rectification-free double-membrane method. Background technique [0002] With the increasingly severe environmental pollution and the increasing scarcity of petroleum resources, biofuels (bio-ethanol, bio-butanol, etc.), as a clean and renewable new energy source, have attracted great attention from all over the world. Compared with bioethanol and other biofuels, biobutanol has obvious advantages in terms of fuel performance and economy. It has higher energy density, high mixing ratio with gasoline, high octane number, low volatility and is suitable for internal combustion engines. . At the same time, bio-butanol is less corrosive than ethanol, and its boiling point and flash point are relatively higher than other low-carbon alcohols. It is safer and convenient for pipeline transportation and stora...
