Problems solved by technology

This technology can only be used for the removal of light components whose boiling point is lower than that of propylene oxide, which can be azeotroped with the extractant, and the proportion of impurities in water is much larger than that of impurities in extractant during phase separation.

Abstract

The invention relates to a propylene epoxide purifying method and purifying method. The problems that in the prior art, due to accumulation of heavy component impurities of propylene glycol monomethylether and propylene glycol dimethyl, an extraction agent is low in purity and large in loss, and propylene epoxide is low in yield and high in energy consumption are mainly solved. The method comprises the following steps of (1) making feeding material flows containing propylene epoxide, propylene glycol monomethyl ether and propylene glycol dimethyl and an extraction agent material flow enter anextraction tower, obtaining a light component impurity material flow on a tower top, and obtaining a crude extraction agent material flow on a tower bottom; (2) making the crude extraction agent material flow enter a separation tower, obtaining a propylene epoxide product on a tower top, and obtaining a first material flow on a tower bottom; and (3) operating the separation tower under conditionsenough for making an extraction agent, the propylene glycol monomethyl ether and the propylene glycol dimethyl form azeotrope, and collecting material flows which contain the extraction agent-propylene glycol monomethyl ether azeotrope and the extraction agent-propylene glycol dimethyl azeotrope on a side line of the separation tower. The method can be used for industrial production of propyleneepoxide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a propylene oxide purification method and a purification device, in particular to a purification method and a purification device for recovering an extractant through extraction and rectification of propylene oxide. Background technique [0002] Propylene oxide (PO) is mainly used in the production of polyether polyols, propylene glycol and propylene glycol ethers. Its output in propylene derivatives is second only to polypropylene, and it is the second largest propylene derivative. According to statistics, in 2011, the global consumption of propylene oxide used in the production of polyether polyols accounted for about 66% of the total consumption, that used in the production of propylene glycol accounted for about 17%, and that used in the production of propylene glycol ethers accounted for about 6%. . In 2011, the global production capacity of propylene oxide was 8.822 million tons, and it exceeded 10 million tons in 2016. ...
