Problems solved by technology

[0006] The initial investment of ethylene oxidation method is large, there are many equipments, and the process flow is long; at present, the saponification process of the chloroethanol method is carried out in a kettle or tower reactor, and the process flow is simple, the investment is small, and the product quality can meet the production requirements of downstream products. Requirements and other advantages, but its disadvantages are mainly that chlorine gas is dissolved in water first in the process to generate hypochlorous acid and then react with ethylene. In order to ensure that chlorine gas is fully dissolved, a large amount of water is needed, and finally it is carried out with 4%-6% dilute chloroethanol solution. Saponification reaction, low product yield, high energy consumption, large amount of sewage, does not meet the requirements of green chemical development

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and equipment for preparing ethylene oxide with high concentration of chloroethanol. The method comprises the following steps: feeding the aqueous solution of chloroethanol and milk of lime solution with a content of 50-70% (wt) into a pre-reactor for mixing; the material that stays and mixes for 0.05-3 seconds enters a saponification reaction rectification tower, and simultaneously The bottom of the steam is directly heated, and the steam at the top of the tower first enters the partial condenser, and all the condensed materials are used as reflux to flow back to the rectification column through the reflux tank, and the uncondensed steam from the partial condenser enters the total condenser to make it All condensed to be the product ethylene oxide; the saponification reaction rectification tower is a sieve tray tower, and the tower is sequentially arranged as a rectification section, a reaction section, and a stripping section from top to bottom. The product yield of the invention is higher than 98 percent; meanwhile, the amount of waste water in the tower kettle and the content of organic matter in the waste water are reduced.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of compound preparation, and in particular relates to a method and process equipment for preparing ethylene oxide by saponification of high-concentration chloroethanol. Background technique [0002] Ethylene oxide is an important raw material for petrochemical production. Ethylene oxide is used to manufacture other chemicals, mainly ethylene glycol. The main end use of ethylene glycol is in the production of polyester polymers and is also used as an automotive coolant and antifreeze. Secondly, it is used to produce ethoxylates, ethanolamine, glycol ether, ethyleneamine, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, hydroxyethyl cellulose, choline chloride, glyoxal, ethylene carbonate Esters and other downstream products. [0003] At present, there are two main production methods of ethylene oxide, namely the chlorohydrin method and the direct oxidation method of ethylene. Chlorohydrin metho...
