Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the fields of medicine and chemical industry, in particular to a series connection type rectification recovery device, method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Pharmaceutical factories and chemical factories need to recover solvents and products containing solid mother liquor. The common property of solvents containing solid mother liquor is that solids are usually dissolved in solvents. The solids in the initial state of the mother liquor are not precipitated, and as the rectification proceeds, the content of the solvent gradually decreases, and the solids originally dissolved in the liquid completely precipitate. At this time, if continuous rectification is performed, the precipitated solids will accumulate on the tray or the gas-liquid channel of the structured packing of the rectification tower, causing the rectification tower to be blocked. Therefore, there are two traditional methods for recovering solvents containing solid mother liquor. One is to first evaporate all the solvents from the mother liquor by simple evaporation, and then collect the condensate containing solvents and solids and the mother liquor containing solids and solvents, respectively, and then treat the solvents and solids, respectively. The characteristic of this method is that the continuous rectification tower with high recovery efficiency can be used to recover the solvents, and the loss of solvents can be ignored when treating the solid-containing mother liquor. The other method is to use intermittent rectification, which requires more towers and kettles, often more than ten. The two traditional methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the common disadvantage is high energy consumption and large equipment investment. There are multiple evaporation and condensation processes, and the consumption of steam and circulating cooling water is large. It is a large energy consumer of the entire product, and the process is discontinuous, requiring operators to continuously operate and switch processing, which greatly consumes manpower. SUMMARY

[0003] Therefore, in view of the problems of high energy consumption, large equipment investment, multiple evaporation and condensation processes, large consumption of steam and circulating cooling water, and discontinuous operation requiring a large amount of manpower in the traditional treatment method, a series connection type rectification recovery device is provided. The series connection type rectification recovery device directly utilizes the heat enthalpy of steam to save energy, combines multiple independent intermittent rectification towers into a continuous rectification tower, and changes the original independent intermittent rectification kettles into multiple distillation kettles in series connection. The rectification tower is set in linkage to ensure that the proportion of steam components entering the rectification tower is basically constant, so that the settings and adjustment parameters of the rectification tower can be basically fixed, saving equipment and improving rectification quality. At the same time, continuous operation can be realized, all concentrated products can be gathered in one discharge kettle, and automatic discharge can be realized, greatly saving operating manpower.

[0056] Another object of the present application is to provide a series distillation recovery method.

[0057] A series distillation recovery method using a series distillation recovery device 10, comprising the following steps:

[0058] Step 1, the solvent-containing liquid to be treated enters the first distillation kettle 100 for kettle distillation, the concentrated product produced in the first distillation kettle 100 enters the next distillation kettle 100 for kettle distillation, and the solid-containing liquid at the bottom of the last distillation kettle 100 is pumped out by the discharge pump 200, and the vapor produced by each distillation kettle 100 enters the rectification column 300; and

[0059] Step 2, the rectification column 300 fractionates the vapor to form light and heavy fractions.

[0060] In some embodiments, step 1 specifically comprises the following steps: controlling the distillation temperature T1 in the first distillation kettle 100, the solvent-containing liquid to be treated enters the first distillation kettle 100 for kettle distillation, online sampling detects that the solvent content of the vapor distilled in the first distillation kettle 100 is the first vapor solvent preset value or the solvent content of the material in the distillation kettle is the first material solvent preset value, and constant liquid level discharge is started after reaching the preset liquid level, keeping the dynamic balance of the liquid phase feed amount, vapor evaporation amount, and liquid phase discharge amount of the first distillation kettle 100;

[0061] controlling the distillation temperature T2 in the second distillation kettle 100, the solid-containing liquid at the bottom of the first distillation kettle 100 enters the second distillation kettle 100 for kettle distillation, online sampling detects that the solvent content of the vapor distilled in the second distillation kettle 100 is the second vapor solvent preset value or the solvent content of the material in the distillation kettle is the second material solvent preset value, and constant liquid level discharge is started after reaching the preset liquid level, keeping the dynamic balance of the liquid phase feed amount, vapor evaporation amount, and liquid phase discharge amount of the second distillation kettle 100;

[0062] Similarly, the distillation temperature Tn in the last distillation kettle 100 is controlled, the solid-containing liquid at the bottom of the n-1th distillation kettle 100 is fed into the last distillation kettle 100 for kettle distillation, and online sampling detection is performed until the vapor solvent content of the distillation vapor of the last distillation kettle 100 is the n vapor solvent preset value or the material solvent content in the distillation kettle is the n material solvent preset value, and after reaching the preset liquid level, constant liquid level discharge is started, and the dynamic balance of the liquid phase feed amount, the gas phase evaporation amount and the liquid phase discharge amount of the last distillation kettle 100 is maintained.

[0063] In this embodiment, the first distillation kettle 100 is evaporated first, and evaporation and gas phase discharge are performed simultaneously at a fixed speed, the evaporation and concentration liquid level gradually rises, and after reaching the preset liquid level, the first distillation kettle 100 discharges into the next kettle (the second distillation kettle 100). The evaporation capacity and feed speed of the series rectification recovery device 10 need to be theoretically calculated in advance according to the actual situation of the material liquid to be evaporated, the actual liquid level in the first distillation kettle 100 is reached, and the feed is maintained while the constant liquid level discharge is maintained. At this time, the solvent concentration in the kettle will not deviate too much, and if there is a slight concentration deviation, the evaporation capacity can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of heating steam, while the actual feed speed remains basically unchanged. The liquid level in the first distillation kettle 100 reaches the set value, and the discharge into the next kettle is started. The solvent concentration of the liquid phase to be discharged in the kettle is detected online, and if the concentration is too high, the amount of heating steam is increased, and if the concentration is too low, the amount of heating steam is decreased. As long as the liquid phase feed speed of the first distillation kettle 100 is fixed and the liquid phase discharge concentration reaches the preset value, the gas phase evaporation amount is fixed, the heating steam is also fixed, and continuous and stable operation is achieved. After that, there is no need to operate and adjust the parameters. The liquid phase feed of the second distillation kettle 100 comes from the liquid phase discharge of the previous distillation kettle 100. As described above, after the parameters of the first distillation kettle 100 are stabilized, the liquid phase discharge of the first distillation kettle 100 is also the liquid phase feed of the second distillation kettle 100. After the parameters of the second distillation kettle 100 are stabilized, there will be no other sources of feed. The second distillation kettle 100 is operated in the same way as the first distillation kettle 100. The solvent concentration of the liquid phase to be discharged is detected by sampling, and if the concentration is too high, the amount of heating steam is increased, and if the concentration is too low, the amount of heating steam is decreased, so as to achieve a stable evaporation amount and a stable liquid phase concentration. Finally, after reaching the preset liquid level, the discharge is started. The whole process is consistent with the operation process of the first distillation kettle 100. Similarly, the third distillation kettle 100, the fourth distillation kettle 100 and the fifth distillation kettle 100 are operated.

[0064] In some embodiments, after the system is balanced and stabilized, the liquid phase feed speed v1 of the first distillation kettle 100 is v1 = {V1 gas + V2 gas +... + V(n-1) gas + Vn gas + Vn liquid} / t; wherein V1 gas represents the gas phase discharge amount in the first distillation kettle 100, and similarly, Vn gas represents the gas phase discharge amount in the nth distillation kettle 100, and Vn liquid represents the liquid phase discharge amount of the nth distillation kettle 100.

[0065] The liquid phase feeding speed v2 of the second distillation kettle 100 is V1 liquid / t, wherein V1 liquid represents the liquid phase discharging amount of the first distillation kettle 100; it should be noted that the liquid phase feeding speed v2 of the second distillation kettle 100 can also be represented as v2={V2 gas+...+V(n-1) gas+Vn gas+Vn liquid} / t.

[0066] The liquid phase feeding speed v(n-1) of the n-1th distillation kettle 100 is V(n-2) liquid / t, wherein V(n-2) liquid represents the liquid phase discharging amount of the n-2th distillation kettle 100; it should be noted that the liquid phase feeding speed v3 of the third distillation kettle 100 can also be represented as v3={V3 gas+...+V(n-1) gas+Vn gas+Vn liquid} / t.

[0067] The liquid phase feeding speed vn of the nth distillation kettle 100 is V(n-1) liquid / t, wherein V(n-1) liquid represents the liquid phase discharging amount of the n-1th distillation kettle 100; it should be noted that the liquid phase feeding speed vn of the nth distillation kettle 100 can also be represented as vn={Vn gas+Vn liquid} / t.

[0068] The gas phase evaporation amount entering the rectification tower 300 per t hour is V1 gas+V2 gas+...+Vn gas, and the liquid phase discharging amount of the last distillation kettle 100 is Vn liquid.

[0069] Another embodiment of the present application also provides an application of the series connection type rectification recovery method.

[0070] An application of a series connection type rectification recovery method in solvent recovery in D / L-pantothenyl lactone mother liquor.

[0095] Example 3

[0096] The D / L-pantothenyl lactone process wastewater was treated by the series distillation recovery method of the present embodiment. The process wastewater was extracted with ethyl acetate to obtain a recovery extract liquid, and the recovery extract liquid was treated by the series distillation recovery method of the present embodiment.

[0097] The recovery extract liquid was fed into the first distillation still 100 (volume 5 m 3 ) at a liquid phase feeding speed v1=1000 kg / h. The components and approximate contents of the recovery extract liquid were D / L-pantothenyl lactone 5%, water 5%, and ethyl acetate 90%. The data after reaching a stable equilibrium were as follows:

[0098] The feeding speed v1 of the first distillation still 100 was 1000 kg / h, the gas phase discharge speed V1gas was 230 kg / h, the liquid phase discharge speed V1liquid was 770 kg / h, and the distillation temperature T1 in the first distillation still 100 was controlled at 82°C.

[0099] The feeding speed v2 of the second distillation still 100 was 770 kg / h, the gas phase discharge speed V2gas was 210 kg / h, the liquid phase discharge speed V2liquid was 560 kg / h, and the distillation temperature T2 in the second distillation still 100 was controlled at 85°C.

[0100] The feeding speed v3 of the third distillation still 100 was 560 kg / h, the gas phase discharge speed V3gas was 200 kg / h, the liquid phase discharge speed V3liquid was 360 kg / h, and the distillation temperature T3 in the third distillation still 100 was controlled at 88°C.

[0101] The feeding speed v1 of the fourth distillation still 100 was 360 kg / h, the gas phase discharge speed V4gas was 150 kg / h, the liquid phase discharge speed V4liquid was 210 kg / h, and the distillation temperature T4 in the fourth distillation still 100 was controlled at 93°C.

[0102] The feeding speed v5 of the fifth distillation still 100 was 210 kg / h, the gas phase discharge speed V5gas was 140 kg / h, the liquid phase discharge speed V5liquid was 70 kg / h, and the distillation temperature T5 in the fifth distillation still 100 was controlled at 101°C.

[0103] In the example 3, the initial D / L-pantothenyl lactone solution contains 5% lactone, 90% solvent ethyl acetate, and 5% water. Five distillation kettles 100 are provided in the example, and the output concentrations of the liquid-phase solvent ethyl acetate in the kettles are set to be 65%, 45%, 25%, 10%, and 0.05% respectively (the data can be adjusted according to the actual equipment conditions). Even if the ethyl acetate concentrations in the last two kettles are very low, the lactone will not be precipitated in solid state due to the presence of water, and the lactone is in liquid solution, which can be pumped out by the liquid feeding pump 101.

[0104] Therefore, the gas-phase output speed, i.e., the feeding speed of the rectification tower 300, is v feed = 930 kg / h (V1 gas + V2 gas + V3 gas + V4 gas + V5 gas, the component ethyl acetate is 900 kg / h, and the water is 30 kg / h, with a water content of 3.2%).

[0105] It is detected and calculated that the light distillate output from the rectification tower 300 is v light = 899 kg / h (the component ethyl acetate is 899 kg / h, with a content of >99.8%), and the heavy distillate output from the rectification tower 300 is v heavy = 29.9 kg / h (the component water is 29.9 kg / h, with a content of >99.9%).

[0107] The technical features of the above examples can be combined in any manner. In order to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above examples are not described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, they should be considered as the scope of the present disclosure.
