Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrazine hydrate recovery and utilization, and more particularly to a method and device for recovering hydrazine hydrate. Background Art
[0002] Prothioconazole is a triazolethione fungicide primarily used to control numerous diseases in crops such as cereals, wheat, and legumes. Hydrazine compounds, the intermediates of prothioconazole, are primarily synthesized using the hydrazine hydrate method and the triazole method. Due to the harsh process conditions, low yield, and relatively poor product quality of the triazole method, the hydrazine hydrate method is the most widely used process both domestically and internationally.
[0003] Hydrazine hydrate (N2H4H20), also known as hydrated hydrazine, is strongly alkaline and hygroscopic. Under normal pressure, hydrazine forms an azeotropic mixture with water, and liquid hydrazine hydrate exists as a dimer. It is a core raw material in the synthesis of prothioconazole. However, under current conditions, hydrazine hydrate can only be used in excess for synthesis, resulting in a large amount of low-concentration hydrazine hydrate remaining in the system after the reaction. If discharged directly, its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) would place a severe burden on wastewater treatment systems. The current mainstream recovery method is vacuum distillation, but it has the following drawbacks:
[0004] (1) Poor safety. Hydrazine hydrate easily decomposes at high temperatures to produce gases such as NH3 and N2, and there is a risk of explosion when concentrated to a certain concentration;
[0005] (2) Low efficiency. Hydrazine hydrate is easily entrained by water vapor during the distillation process, resulting in a high concentration of hydrazine hydrate in the distillate, which cannot meet the discharge standards.
[0006] (3) Insufficient stability, process fluctuations can easily cause hydrazine decomposition, affecting the recovery purity. Summary of the Invention
[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for recovering hydrazine hydrate to solve one or more of the above problems.
[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0009] A device for recovering hydrazine hydrate, comprising
[0010] A vacuum distillation mechanism for performing vacuum distillation on low-concentration hydrazine hydrate and toluene;
[0011] The condensation and water separation mechanism is connected to the vacuum distillation mechanism to condense, liquefy and separate the gas phase after distillation;
[0012] The circulation collection mechanism is connected to the condensation and water separation mechanism to classify and receive the stratified objects. The classified different objects are introduced into the vacuum distillation mechanism or discharged after meeting the standards.
[0013] Furthermore, the vacuum distillation mechanism includes a distillation kettle and a distillation tower connected in sequence. The distillation kettle and the distillation tower are both made of stainless steel, and the tower height and tower diameter of the distillation tower are not unique.
[0014] Furthermore, the condensation water separation mechanism includes
[0015] a main condenser connected to a distillation column;
[0016] A vacuum condenser is connected to the circulation collection mechanism through a balance pipe with an on-off valve and is externally connected to a vacuum pipeline;
[0017] a pressure reducer, which is connected to the main condenser and the vacuum condenser at the same time and is also connected to the liquid separator;
[0018] The liquid distributor is connected to the pressure reducer and the circulation collection mechanism.
[0019] Furthermore, the recycling collection mechanism includes
[0020] A toluene storage tank connected to a recovery pipe and equipped with a corresponding valve;
[0021] The wastewater storage tank is connected to the liquid separator through a discharge pipe with a regulating valve, and is also connected to a vacuum condenser and an external discharge pipeline.
[0022] Further, the toluene storage tank is connected to the distillation tower via a recovery pump;
[0023] An interface meter is provided in the liquid distributor and is electrically connected to the regulating valve.
[0024] The recovery method based on the above device has the following steps:
[0025] S1, feeding and distillation, adding low concentration hydrazine hydrate and toluene into the distillation kettle in sequence, and performing vacuum distillation using a distillation tower;
[0026] S2, condensation and water separation, the gas phase of toluene and water distilled under reduced pressure in step S1 is liquefied by means of a main condenser and then enters a liquid separator through a pressure reducer, and toluene and wastewater are automatically separated by density difference;
[0027] S3, circulation and collection, collecting the toluene separated from the layer in step S2 into a toluene storage tank, and sending it back to the top of the distillation tower by a recovery pump;
[0028] The wastewater separated by stratification in step S2 is collected into a wastewater storage tank, and the hydrazine hydrate concentration in the wastewater is tested. If the concentration meets the standard, the wastewater is directly discharged into the sewage treatment system through the drainage pipe.
[0029] Furthermore, the conditions for the reduced pressure distillation in step S1 are a pressure of -0.05 to -0.1 MPa and a temperature ≤ 80°C.
[0030] Furthermore, the toluene separated from the distillation column in step S3 is sent back to the top of the distillation tower to suppress the entrainment of hydrazine hydrate by water vapor through extractive distillation, thereby improving the recovery rate of hydrazine hydrate; the toluene circulating back to the distillation kettle can gradually increase the concentration of hydrazine hydrate.
[0031] Furthermore, the residual hydrazine hydrate content in the wastewater in step S3 is less than 0.01% w / w, which is considered to be up to standard.
[0032] Furthermore, in step S2, a vacuum pipeline and a vacuum condenser are introduced to maintain a vacuum state and assist the progress of hydrocondensation, and a balance pipe is used to maintain the internal pressure.
[0033] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: decomposition and explosion of hydrazine hydrate at high temperature is avoided by low-temperature vacuum distillation, thereby significantly improving process safety; by introducing toluene after stratification into a distillation tower, the entrainment of hydrazine hydrate in the distillate is reduced, and the residual amount of hydrazine hydrate in the stratified wastewater is further reduced by more than 80% compared with the traditional method, and the hydrazine hydrate recovery rate is significantly improved; the water separation mechanism automatically separates toluene and wastewater, and the degree of automation is high; the stratified toluene is recycled, thereby reducing the cost of raw materials; the wastewater is directly discharged after meeting the standards, thereby reducing the subsequent sewage treatment cost, and is more economical and environmentally friendly.

[0086] Example 4
[0087] The selected batch of prothioconazole synthetic wastewater is fed to the 3000L distillation kettle 1, which contains 20% hydrazine hydrate concentration and weighs 2000kg, and then 500kg toluene is pumped in.
