Abstract

The invention aims to solve the technical problem that long-term continuous production operation is difficult due to the fact that materials block the tops of rectifying towers in the PODE (polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether) purification process with a rectification method. The adopted technical scheme comprises steps as follows: (a) a reaction mixture obtained by a reaction synthesis unit firstly enters a first rectifying tower, a first fraction mainly containing methylal is removed through separation, and first tower bottoms are obtained; (b) the first tower bottoms enter an extraction unit and are subjected to extraction with a two-phase extraction agent containing an organic solvent and an aqueous phase, an extract phase containing PODEn (n=2-8) and an organic solvent is obtained, and a raffinate phase is an aqueous phase containing formaldehyde; (c) the extract phase sequentially enters a second rectifying tower, a third rectifying tower and a fourth rectifying tower for rectification, and a second fraction containing an organic solvent, a third fraction containing high-purity PODEn (n=2) and a fourth fraction containing PODEn (n=3-5) are obtained respectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for purifying polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether, in particular to preparing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether with high purity n=3-5 from the reaction mixture containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether obtained in the reaction of paraformaldehyde as a raw material base 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 ≥ 1 (generally the ...
