Embodiment 1

[0028] The catalyst in this example is a silica carrier loaded with cesium and zirconium, the cesium loading is 10wt%, and the zirconium loading is 1wt%. Loaded on a silica carrier by the method, dried at 105°C for 5 hours, and calcined at 550°C for 5 hours to obtain a catalyst with a particle size of 0.10-0.15mm.

[0029] Experimental process: Catalyst performance evaluation was carried out in an internal circulating fluidized bed reactor. The diameter of the fluidized bed reactor was 25mm, the height was 500mm, and the catalyst loading was 10g. The thermocouple was extended to the middle of the fluidized bed material to monitor the reaction temperature in real time. The distributor distributes the air evenly. Feedstock flow rate 0.4mL / min, containing 44wt% methyl propionate, 43wt% methanol, 10wt% formaldehyde and 3wt% water, oxygen-containing fluidizing gas containing 2wt% O 2 N 2 +O 2 Mixed gas, the flow rate is 50L / h, the reaction temperature is 360°C, and the operation...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing methyl methacrylate through aldol condensation of methyl propionate and formaldehyde, and belongs to the technical field of synthesis of methyl methacrylate. According to the method, methyl propionate, a formaldehyde source, methanol, water and oxygen-containing fluidized gas enter a fluidized bed reactor after pre-heating, and the oxygen in the oxygen-containing fluidized gas reacts with the carbon deposit on the surface of a catalyst so as to be consumed, such that an upper poor-oxygen zone and a lower oxygen-containing zone are formed; in the upper poor-oxygen zone, the methyl propionate reacts with the formaldehyde to form MMA, and carbon deposit is formed on the surface of the catalyst; in the lower oxygen-containing zone, the catalyst contacts the oxygen to burn off the carbon deposit on the surface; the catalyst continuously and cyclically flows in the fluidized bed; and the catalyst regenerated in the lower oxygen-containing zone cyclically returns to the upper poor-oxygen zone through the bed material so as to stably provide the fresh catalytic surface for the aldol condensation process, the carbon deposition catalyst returns to the lower oxygen-containing zone to start the next cycle, and the gas phase product is delivered to a subsequent separation unit. With the method of the present invention, the problem of rapid carbon deposition deactivation of the catalyst during the aldol condensation of methyl propionate and formaldehyde can be effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of methyl methacrylate synthesis, in particular to a method for preparing methyl methacrylate through aldol condensation of methyl propionate and formaldehyde. Background technique [0002] Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is an important organic chemical raw material, widely used in the production of organic glass (PMMA), PVC additives, coatings and other fields. The traditional industrial production technology of MMA is the acetone cyanohydrin method (ACH method). This route uses highly toxic hydrocyanic acid as a raw material, and is mostly produced with acrylonitrile equipment. The reaction process consumes a large amount of sulfuric acid, which requires high equipment materials and side effects. A large amount of ammonium bisulfate is produced, the process is long, and the pressure on environmental protection is high. At present, the newly developed MMA synthesis technology includes isobutylene method, ethyle...
