Problems solved by technology

However, the selectivity of this type of organic extractant is limited. In order to obtain high-purity n-hexane above 99% by weight, it still depends on a higher reflux ratio and number of plates

Abstract

The invention provides a method and system for separating n-hexane and methylcyclopentane. According to the method, an extractive distillation process is employed for treating a raw material containing n-hexane and methylcyclopentane so as to separate n-hexane and methylcyclopentane; an extraction agent containing ionic liquid is used in the extractive distillation process; and the ionic liquid isN-alkylimidazole ionic liquid, and the chain length of the alkyl group of the N-alkylimidazole ionic liquid is C8-C14. Based on the mono-substituted N-alkylimidazole ionic liquid with the specific chain length, the method can improve the volatility of n-hexane relative to methylcyclopentane and effectively separate n-hexane and methylcyclopentane, so a high-purity n-hexane product is prepared; the method is high in recovery rate and simple in operation flow; subsequent separation is more convenient; the extraction agent is free of toxicity, harm and loss, and can be regenerated and reused, which is favorable for industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] This specification belongs to the technical field of organic matter purification, and specifically relates to a method and system for separating n-hexane and methylcyclopentane. Background technique [0002] N-hexane is a chemical product with a wide range of uses. It is mainly used in polymer production, edible oil extraction, extraction of pharmaceutical intermediates, electronic cleaning and other industries. For example, as a polymerization agent for polyethylene and polypropylene, a paint thinner, extraction of various edible oils such as soybeans, rice bran, and cottonseed, and oils in spices. 6 # Solvent oil is mainly C 6 Alkane mixture is the main industrial source for producing n-hexane. The content of n-hexane is about 25wt%, and the content of methylcyclopentane is 6-10wt%. The cyclopentane system is a near-boiling system, that is, a difficult-to-separate system. [0003] At present, the separation of n-hexane and methylcyclopentane from...
