Abstract

The disclosed rectification method in low-pressure oxo synthesis for acetic acid with methanol comprises: feeding the material produced by flash evaporation or evaporation into the dehydrogenation tower, dehydration column and product tower with condensing temperature higher than the boiling temperature of kettle liquor in dehydrogenation tower by turns; using the heat from steam condensation in heat exchange device as the heat resource for dehydrogenation tower. This invention can save almost 50% heating steam and the energy consumed by water circulation in product tower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rectification method in the low-pressure carbonylation process of methanol to acetic acid. Background technique [0002] The rectification process in the existing oxo acetic acid process includes three rectification towers: a light removal tower (also called an initial distillation tower), a dehydration tower (drying tower) and a finished product tower (weight removal tower). Its process is as figure 1 As shown: the vapor phase material produced by the flash evaporator or evaporator enters the light removal tower 1, and after being condensed by the light removal tower condenser 2, it is divided into two liquid phases in the stratifier 3, and the heavy phase returns to the reactor; the light phase A part is returned to the reactor, and a part is refluxed to the top of the light removal tower 1. The liquid in the bottom of the light removal tower 1 is heated by the reboiler 4 of the light removal tower, and the residual liqui...
