Abstract

The invention adopts a technical scheme comprising the following steps: a reaction mixture is separated at a first fractionating tower to remove a first fraction mainly comprising dimethoxymethanel; first tower bottoms are extracted at an extraction unit by a biphasic extracting agent containing an organic solvent and an aqueous phase, and an extract phase containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (n is equal to 2-8) and the organic solvent is obtained and is an aqueous phase containing formaldehyde; a second fraction containing the organic solvent and polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (n is equal to 2) and second tower bottoms containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (n is equal to 3-8) are obtained from the extract phase at a second fractionating tower; solvent recovery tower bottoms and a fraction containing high-purity polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (n is equal to 2) are obtained from the second fraction at a solvent recovery tower bottom; second tower bottoms are fractionated at a third fractionating tower to obtain a product fraction containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (n is equal to 3-5) and third tower bottoms containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether high polymer (n is larger than 5).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the separation process of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, especially relates to the preparation of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether with high purity n=3-5 from the reaction mixture containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether obtained in the reaction of paraformaldehyde as raw material ether method. Background technique [0002] With the sharp increase of energy consumption in modern society, the increasing shortage of petroleum resources, and the increasing pressure on the environment, it is urgent to develop new clean diesel fuels. The use of oxygen-containing compounds as diesel additives is a convenient and effective measure without adding additional devices or changing the engine structure, and has become a new idea for the development of the petroleum industry. [0003] Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether (PODE) is an oxygen-containing compound with the general formula: CH 3 O(CH 2 O)nCH 3 , where n is an integer &g...
