Problems solved by technology

[0009] Compared with other existing processes, this process has been improved, but the process is still relatively complicated, especially there are many rotating equipment, including four pumps for conveying EO-containing media. Improper operation may easily cause EO leakage, and EO is highly toxic. Explosive media, so from a safety point of view, the use of rotating equipment should be minimized
This process uses the EO-lean absorption water in the tank of the stripping / rectification tower to be boosted by the pump, and part of it is used as the reboiler of the EO refining tower and the CO 2 After the heat source of the stripper reboiler is used, it is combined and returned to the EO absorption tower. Although the energy-saving design is considered, the energy utilization of the EO-lean absorption water is not optimal

Abstract

The invention provides a device and a method for production of refined ethylene oxide. The device comprises an EO product tower, an EO aldehyde discharge tower, a condenser, a return tank and an EO reflux pump. The EO product tower roof is successively connected to the condenser, the return tank and the EO reflux pump. An outlet pipe of the EO reflux pump is connected to the top of the EO product tower. The side of the EO product tower is provided with an EO aldehyde discharge line which is connected to the EO aldehyde discharge tower. A gas pipeline at the top of the EO aldehyde discharge tower is connected to the EO product tower. An EO absorbed water-enriched refining chamber is arranged inside the body of the EO product tower. The EO absorbed water-enriched refining chamber successively contains an EO refining section for communication of a vapor phase and a liquid phase, an EO enriching section and an EO stripping section from top to bottom. By the above device and the method, operational safety of the device is raised, and land occupation and investment are saved. In addition, comprehensive utilization of energy is more reasonable, and operational cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ethylene oxide production, and more particularly, relates to a device and method for producing refined ethylene oxide. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the domestic market demand for ethylene oxide has been strong, and the price has remained high. On the other hand, due to the impact of imported ethylene glycol and coal-based ethylene glycol from the Middle East, the market has generally been in a downturn. Therefore, the construction of an ethylene oxide plant that mainly produces refined ethylene oxide and produces a small amount of ethylene glycol as a by-product not only has lower investment than conventional ethylene oxide / ethylene glycol (EO / EG) plants, but also has higher product benefits. it is good. [0003] Therefore, the development of a high-safety, low-energy-consumption production process based on refined EO has become a key research direction for various technology providers. [0004]...
