Abstract

The invention relates to an energy-saving process of separating tetrahydrofuran-methanol by thermal integrated extractive distillation and belongs to the technical field of chemical separation. According to the process, dimethyl sulfoxide is selected as an extraction agent, tetrahydrofuran and methanol are separated by extractive distillation by means of side-draw and intermediate reboiler process flows, and the side-draw material of an extractive distillation tower enters a solvent recovery tower and a tower bottom hot material flow of the solvent recovery tower is recovered as a heat source to integrate heat of the intermediate reboiler and the reboiler of the extractive distillation tower, so that the energy consumption is reduced to a great extent. The product mass fractions are 99.9% or above. The process provided by the invention has the advantages of being energy-saving and environment-friendly, high in separated product purity, cost-saving and the like.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the field of rectification and purification in the chemical industry, and in particular relates to an energy-saving process for separating tetrahydrofuran-methanol through extraction and rectification with heat integration. 【Background technique】 [0002] Tetrahydrofuran is an important raw material for organic synthesis and a solvent with excellent performance.
