Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a system and method for purifying meta-dichlorobenzene from a mixture of dichlorobenzene. BACKGROUND

[0002] Meta-dichlorobenzene, also known as 1,3-dichlorobenzene, has a molecular formula of C6H4Cl2, is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor, is insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol and ether, can undergo chlorination, nitration, sulfonation, hydrolysis reaction, and reacts violently with aluminum, and is an organic compound with the same molecular formula as para-dichlorobenzene and ortho-dichlorobenzene. Meta-dichlorobenzene is a very important fine chemical organic chemical raw material, mainly used in the production of pharmaceuticals, pigments, dyes and pesticides, and also used in organic synthesis and organic solvents, and is an indispensable chemical product. In recent years, the medical field has developed rapidly, and the market demand for high-purity meta-dichlorobenzene has increased sharply, and the domestic and foreign markets are in short supply. Direct chlorination of benzene and transposition reaction of para-dichlorobenzene are the main synthesis methods for preparing meta-dichlorobenzene, and both methods produce a mixture of three isomers. Therefore, how to obtain high-purity meta-dichlorobenzene from a mixture of three isomers has always been a hot topic in the field.

[0003] The traditional method for separating meta-dichlorobenzene is a combination of crystallization and rectification. Soviet Union patents 1460061 and 1766898 report similar methods. This method is to separate para-dichlorobenzene from a mixture of dichlorobenzene isomers by crystallization, and the mother liquor is distilled, ortho-dichlorobenzene is enriched in the distillation residue, and the distillate is recrystallized to precipitate para-dichlorobenzene and obtain a mother liquor enriched in meta-dichlorobenzene. This method does not produce high-purity meta-dichlorobenzene, has low separation efficiency, and has high cost; in addition, the purification method combining crystallization and rectification requires a large number of equipment, which has high equipment cost. European patent EP451720 proposes adding extractants hexamethylphosphoramide and sulfolane to a mixture of meta-dichlorobenzene and para-dichlorobenzene to separate the two isomers by extractive distillation. The disadvantages of this method are that the purity and yield of the obtained meta-dichlorobenzene are not ideal. SUMMARY

[0004] The technical problem solved by the present application is to overcome the defects of low separation purity, low product yield and high equipment cost in the prior art method for purifying meta-dichlorobenzene from a mixture of dichlorobenzene, and to provide a system and method for purifying meta-dichlorobenzene from a mixture of dichlorobenzene.
