[0003] The article "Simulation Optimization of Extractive Distillation of Acetone and n-Hexane Azeotropic System" discloses a double-tower continuous extractive distillation process using N-methylpyrrolidone as an extractant for acetone and n-hexane azeotropic system. The number of theoretical plates in the distillation tower is 32, the content of n-hexane in the top product of the extraction distillation tower reaches 99.84%, and the content of acetone in the top product of the extraction agent recovery tower reaches 99.88%, but this method consumes a lot of energy

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating a mixture of n-hexane and acetone by liquid-liquid extraction-flash evaporation of ionic liquid and a device suitable for the method. According to themethod, imidazole ionic liquid is used as an extraction agent, n-hexane and acetone firstly enter a liquid-liquid extraction tower to be extracted and separated, materials at the upper part of the liquid-liquid extraction tower enter a flash tank to be separated, high-purity n-hexane is obtained at the top of the flash tank, and materials at the lower part of the liquid-liquid extraction tower enter another flash tank to be separated; high-purity acetone is obtained at the tops of the flash tanks, and the extracting agent is recycled after being extracted from the bottoms of the two flash tanks. The method has the advantages of low energy consumption, simple process, high purity of n-hexane and acetone after separation and the like, the adopted extracting agent imidazolium salt ionic liquid is hardly volatilized, the loss of the extracting agent is reduced, and the method is easy to recover, good in chemical thermal stability, green and pollution-free.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical separation and purification, and specifically relates to a method for ionic liquid liquid-liquid extraction-flash separation of a mixture of n-hexane and acetone. Furthermore, it relates to an extraction tower using an imidazolium salt ionic liquid as an extraction agent. Then adopt the flash tank liquid-liquid extraction-flash method for separating n-hexane and acetone. Background technique [0002] Acetone, n-hexane, and benzene series are widely used in printing, painting, furniture manufacturing and other industries, and are common chemical substances in daily life. Acetone is an organic compound with a boiling point of 56.5°C. It is usually used in industries such as explosives, plastics, rubber, fiber, leather, oil, and spray paint. It can also be used to synthesize ketene, acetic anhydride, iodoform, and polyisoprene. It is an important raw material for vinyl rubber, methyl methacrylate, chloroform...
