Problems solved by technology

The catalyst used in this process is a liquid acid catalyst, and the catalytic effect and process are not ideal
And because esterification produces water, there is azeotropy with propylene glycol methyl ether and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, and they are miscible, so it is necessary to increase the water-carrying agent for separation, the separation energy consumption is high, and the cost of wastewater treatment is high

Abstract

The invention discloses an efficient joint production method of propylene glycol monomethyl ether and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate. Propylene oxide, methanol and methyl acetate are takenas raw materials. The method comprises the steps of (1), the preparation of propylene glycol monomethyl ether raw esters: raw materials of the propylene oxide and the methanol are uniformly mixed andpass through a thermostatic reactor and a heat insulation reactor sequentially to generate the propylene glycol monomethyl ether raw esters under the catalytic condition of a medium and strong alkalisolid catalyst, flowing methyl acetate is adopted as a material for a thermal conductive oil pipe in a heat insulation reactor; (2), the preparation of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate: partof the propylene glycol monomethyl ether raw esters prepared in the step 1 and the methyl acetate which is preheated in the thermal conductive oil pipe are transferred to an esterification tower to bemixed, and the propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate is generated by the interesterification reaction of the propylene glycol monomethyl ether raw esters and the methyl acetate which is preheatedin the thermal conductive oil pipe with the presence of acid positive ion resin. The method has the advantages of simple technology, high conversion efficiency and low energy consumption cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of propylene glycol methyl ether (PM) and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA), in particular to a method for co-producing propylene glycol methyl ether and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate with high efficiency. Background technique [0002] Propylene glycol monomethyl ether (PM) is a solvent with excellent performance and low toxicity, which has the characteristics of strong solvency, low volatility and high flash point. The molecular structure and physicochemical properties of PM are similar to glycol ethers, and PM is considered to be an ideal substitute for more toxic glycol ethers. [0003] The easiest way to prepare PM is the propylene oxide (PO) method, that is, under the catalysis of acid or base, PO reacts with lower aliphatic alcohols to prepare PM. The homogeneous acid-base catalyzed reaction has disadvantages such as low monoether selectivity, difficult post-treatment, difficult cata...
