Problems solved by technology

At present, the preparation of fatty acid butyl ester is mainly obtained by transesterification of natural animal and vegetable oils (such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, etc.) under the catalysis of concentrated sulfuric acid. The use process is easy to cause partial carbonization of raw materials, resulting in darker product color, lower purity, lower yield, complicated post-treatment process, serious equipment corrosion, serious wastewater pollution, etc., which seriously restrict the development of this industry.
Furthermore, the current intermittent production method of fatty acid butyl esters has disadvantages such as low efficiency, high energy consumption, low utilization rate of butanol, unstable product quality, and great safety hazards.

Abstract

The invention discloses a continuous production method for preparing fatty acid butyl ester based on biodiesel. N stages of gas-liquid reactors which are sequentially connected in series are used as areaction device; the temperature in each stage of gas-liquid reactor is maintained at a reaction temperature; a reaction mixed solution obtained by mixing raw material biodiesel and a catalyst flowsfrom the first-stage gas-liquid reactor to the n[th]-stage gas-liquid reactor; n strands of butanol are respectively introduced into n stages of gas-liquid reactors to carry out ester exchange reaction with the reaction mixed solution, unreacted butanol and byproduct methanol mixed steam is continuously evaporated out in each stage of gas-liquid reactor, and the evaporated butanol and methanol mixed steam is separated and purified to obtain high-purity methanol and butanol; and a reaction liquid flowing out of the n[th]-stage gas-liquid reactor is posttreated to obtain the fatty acid butyl ester product. The fatty acid butyl ester is continuously produced in a manner of connecting multiple stages of gas-liquid reactors in series, and the production method has the advantages of simple process, safety, high efficiency and capability of continuously producing high-quality fatty acid butyl ester.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fatty acid butyl ester preparation, in particular to a continuous production method for preparing fatty acid butyl ester based on biodiesel. Background technique [0002] Fatty acid butyl ester is a light yellow transparent oily liquid at room temperature. It is a widely used organic chemical intermediate and can be used as biodiesel, lubricating oil, plasticizer, etc. At present, the preparation of fatty acid butyl ester is mainly obtained by transesterification of natural animal and vegetable oils (such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, etc.) under the catalysis of concentrated sulfuric acid. The use process can easily cause partial carbonization of raw materials, resulting in darker product color, lower purity, lower yield, complicated post-treatment process, serious equipment corrosion, serious wastewater pollution, etc., which seriously restrict the development of this industry.
