Abstract

The invention relates to a novel reactive distillation process for separating a methyl acetate hydrolysate by a dividing wall column. A device comprises a reactive distillation tower for generating amethyl acetate hydrolysis reaction and a dividing wall column for separating the methyl acetate hydrolysate. An azeotrope of methyl acetate and methyl alcohol enters the lower part of the reaction section of the reactive distillation tower, and water is added into the upper part of the reaction section. Tower top products of the reactive distillation tower comprise methyl acetate and methyl alcohol, and tower bottom products comprise methyl alcohol, water and acetic acid. A tower bottom product is decompressed and then enters the dividing wall column for separation of the three products including methyl alcohol, water and acetic acid. A high-concentration methyl alcohol product is obtained at the top of the dividing wall column, a high-concentration acetic acid product is obtained at the bottom of the dividing wall column, and water and part of acetic acid are obtained laterally. The process has the advantages that methyl acetate circulates in the reactive distillation tower, the one-way conversion rate is increased, and the tower kettle does not contain methyl acetate. The dividing wall column is used for separating the three products of methyl alcohol, water and acetic acid, so that the energy consumption and the equipment investment cost are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical distillation, and relates to methyl acetate hydrolysis technology, in particular to a novel reactive distillation process for separating methyl acetate hydrolyzate in a dividing wall tower. Background technique [0002] A large amount of by-product methyl acetate will be produced in the production process of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), but the industrial use of methyl acetate is relatively limited, and 1.5-1.7 tons of methyl acetate will be produced for every ton of polyvinyl alcohol produced per liter , but the product of the hydrolysis reaction has a higher value, so it is very important to hydrolyze methyl acetate and utilize its product. At home and abroad, ion exchange resin is usually used as a fixed bed catalyst to hydrolyze methyl acetate, and then rectification is used to separate the components. The undecomposed methyl acetate is separated and hydrolyzed again, so that it participates in the reacti...
