Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical equipment, in particular to a butadiene polymerization inhibitor removal device. Background Art

[0002] Butadiene is a colorless gas at room temperature and pressure. It is insoluble in water but easily soluble in non-polar solvents. It is often used as the main raw material for synthetic rubber, synthetic resin, etc. Since butadiene is easy to self-polymerize or produce peroxides under oxygen conditions, butadiene manufacturers usually add tert-butylcatechol as an inhibitor during the storage of butadiene to reduce the production of self-polymers, avoid affecting product quality, and create safety hazards. During the use of butadiene, the inhibitor has a great influence on the polymerization reaction rate. In most existing production facilities, a set of inhibitor removal equipment is required to remove the inhibitor in butadiene.

[0003] The commonly used polymerization inhibitor in butadiene is p-tert-butylcatechol. According to the different seasonal temperatures, the amount added by butadiene manufacturers is controlled at 40-150ppm. Before normal use, sodium hydroxide is used to react with the polymerization inhibitor to generate salt, which is then dissolved in water and then used after stratification. In actual production and use, butadiene is usually passed into a horizontal alkali washing tank with sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, so that the polymerization inhibitor reacts with sodium hydroxide to produce sodium salt and dissolves in water. Since butadiene is insoluble in water and lighter than water, it is in the upper layer of water after stratification, and gradually pushes into the separation tank. After standing for a period of time, a small amount will be stratified to the bottom of the tank, and the upper butadiene is ready for use. At present, in the process of removing inhibitors from butadiene, the following problems mainly exist: First, the inhibitors in butadiene are not completely removed. Normal use generally requires less than 6ppm, but it often exceeds this value, even reaching more than 15ppm; second, when butadiene is statically layered in the separation tank, it is difficult to separate it cleanly, and a small amount of alkali solution is often brought into the polymerization kettle, which has a great impact on the polymerization reaction; third, in order to better remove the inhibitors in butadiene, butadiene and alkali solution are used to enter the static mixer at a certain time and then enter the alkali washing tank to fully mix and remove butadiene, but due to different inlet pressures, the flow ratio is inconvenient to adjust, and trace impurities are easy to block the static mixer; fourth, the temperature is different, and the alkali washing effect at different times is also different. Therefore, in actual production, how to improve the removal effect of inhibitors in butadiene is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0030] The specific method of using the butadiene polymerization inhibitor removal device 100 of this embodiment is as follows:

[0031] (1) Clean the alkali cleaning tank 1, the water washing tank 2 and the separation tank 3, and replace the oxygen content in the tanks with nitrogen until the oxygen content is less than 0.2%; (2) Add alkali solution (concentration 10-15%) to the alkali cleaning tank 1 through the alkali solution valve 103 on the alkali solution pipe, the volume of which is 50-60% of the volume of the tank body of the alkali cleaning tank 1, then close the alkali solution valve 103, open the water inlet valve 18, add deionized water to the water washing tank 2, the volume of the deionized water added is 50-60% of the volume of the tank body of the water washing tank 2, and then close the water inlet valve 18; (3) Open the jacket inlet and outlet valves of the alkali cleaning tank 1, and pass cold water and / or hot water to control the alkali solution temperature at 15-20°C; (4) Open the first feed valve 12, and continuously pump butadiene into the alkali cleaning tank through the butadiene pump, and disperse it into the alkali cleaning tank 1 through the first inner coil 24. After flowing out of the first inner coil 24 through the first discharge hole 2401, it can fully contact with the alkali solution, gradually move upward, and be layered on the upper part of the alkali solution; (5) Open the first discharge valve 14 and the second feed valve 16, press the butadiene after alkali washing into the water washing tank 2, and disperse the butadiene into the water in the water washing tank 2 through the second inner coil 25 at the bottom. After the butadiene fully contacts with the water, it gradually moves to the upper part and layers with the water; (6) Open the second discharge valve 19 and the third feed valve 20, press the butadiene after water washing into the separation tank 3. After reaching 80% of the volume of the separation tank 3, close the first feed valve 12 and the butadiene pump, stop alkali washing, let it stand for 2-3 hours, and take samples from the discharge pipe 10 to test butadiene. The content of butadiene inhibitor is 5ppm, and there is no red alkali solution impurity in butadiene, which meets the quality requirements. In order to better control the quality and achieve the butadiene alkali washing effect, when the sodium hydroxide concentration in the alkali solution drops by 2% or the solid content of the alkali solution increases by 4-5%, the alkali solution must be replaced in time, the drain valve 102 on the drain pipe is opened, the waste alkali solution is discharged, and then new alkali solution is added through the alkali solution pipe. It can be used and all indicators meet the requirements.

[0032] The main function of the separation tank 3 is that after butadiene is left to stand, due to the insolubility of butadiene in water and different densities, butadiene and water are automatically separated, and a small amount of water in butadiene is separated to the bottom of the tank. This water is the water that butadiene brings with it after being separated from the water washing tank 2 and pressed into the separation tank 3. The gas in the alkali washing tank 1, the water washing tank 2 and the separation tank 3 can be conveniently discharged through the vent pipe 5 in conjunction with the first vent valve 13, the second vent valve 17 and the third vent valve 21. The liquid separated in the water washing tank 2 and the separation tank 3 can be discharged into the alkali washing tank 1 for utilization through the drain port 11 at the bottom of the water washing tank 2 and the drain port 11 at the bottom of the separation tank 3.
