Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organosilicon monomer distillation technology, and more particularly to a separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers. Background Technology
[0002] Dimethyldichlorosilane (hereinafter referred to as dimethyl) is the methylchlorosilane monomer with the largest demand in the organosilicon industry. Currently, it is mainly synthesized industrially through direct synthesis from silicon powder and chloromethane in the presence of a copper catalyst. This method yields multi-component mixtures including dimethyl, such as monomethyltrichlorosilane (hereinafter referred to as monomethyl), trimethylchlorosilane (hereinafter referred to as trimethyl), monomethyldichlorosilane (hereinafter referred to as monomethylhydrogen), and dimethylchlorosilane (hereinafter referred to as dimethylhydrogen). Currently, distillation is commonly used in industry for the separation and purification of dimethyl. However, because the boiling point difference between monomethyl and dimethyl is approximately 3.8°C, it is necessary to increase the number of distillation trays and the reflux ratio of the distillation column to achieve a dimethyl purity greater than 99.8%. Therefore, the equipment investment and operating energy consumption of the distillation column account for a significant proportion of the organosilicon production cost.
[0003] Current industrial distillation processes are mainly classified into three types: cis-cut, anti-cut, and mid-section cut. Among them, anti-cut and mid-section cut processes are difficult to operate, and the purity of dimethyl methacrylate (DMMA) is unstable. Therefore, the cis-cut process is mainly used in industry. Common cis-cut processes include seven-tower and eight-tower processes. In the seven-tower process, DMMA and DMMA are separated in a binary column, requiring high separation standards and a completely linear process with low product recovery. The eight-tower process adds a circulating stream, but DMMA and DMMA are still separated in a binary column. It requires a high number of trays and a large operating reflux ratio, but all of these processes generally suffer from high energy consumption.
[0004] Therefore, how to reduce operating energy consumption is a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers to reduce operating energy consumption.

The cracking tower is used to recover crude monomers from the product of the high-boiling cracking unit, and the disproportionation tower is used to recover crude monomers from the product of the low-boiling disproportionation unit. The cracking tower, the disproportionation tower, and the high-boiling removal tower are connected in sequence via pipelines.
[0011] Optionally, in the above-mentioned separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers, the outlet of the compressor at the top of the de-lowering column is connected to the hot-side inlet of the reboiler at the bottom of the disproportionating column via a pipeline, and the hot-side outlet of the reboiler at the bottom of the disproportionating column is connected to the reflux inlet at the top of the de-lowering column.
[0012] Optionally, the separation system for the methylchlorosilane monomer described above also includes a low-boiling tower, which is connected to the light fractionation tower via a pipeline for extracting the dimethyl hydrogen-containing product and tetramethyl product from the low-boiling product produced by the light fractionation tower.

[0013] Optionally, in the separation system of the methylchlorosilane monomer described above, a portion of the product collected from the top of the binary column is sent to the monomethyl purification column, and another portion is sent to the low-boiling disproportionation unit, with the product sent to the monomethyl purification column accounting for 1 / 3 to 1 / 3 of the total product.
[0014] Optionally, in the above-mentioned separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers, the gas phase outlet at the top of the de-elution column is connected to the hot-side inlet of the reboiler at the bottom of the de-elution column, and the hot-side outlet of the reboiler at the bottom of the de-elution column is connected to the reflux liquid inlet at the top of the de-elution column.

[0019] This invention provides a separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers. After pressurizing and heating the overhead gas phase of the de-oxidation column using a compressor at the top of the column, the pressurized and heated gas phase is then piped to the reboilers of the light fractionation column, hydrogen-containing column, azeotropic column, and trimethylsilane column, providing them with the necessary heat source.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] The purpose of this invention is to provide a separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers to reduce operating energy consumption.
[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] like Figure 1As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers, including a high-density removal tower 1, a low-density removal tower 2, a binary tower 3, a monomethyl silane purification tower 4, a light fractionation tower 5, a hydrogen-containing tower 6, an azeotropic tower 7, a trimethyl silane tower 8, a high-density removal tower reboiler 12, a low-density removal tower reboiler 13, a binary tower reboiler 14, a monomethyl silane purification tower reboiler 15, a light fractionation tower reboiler 17, a hydrogen-containing tower reboiler 19, an azeotropic tower reboiler 21, a trimethyl silane tower reboiler 23, a monomethyl silane purification tower top condenser 16, a light fractionation tower top condenser 18, a hydrogen-containing tower top condenser 20, an azeotropic tower top condenser 22, a trimethyl silane tower top condenser 24, a binary tower vapor reboiler 31, a low-density removal tower top compressor 32, and a binary tower top compressor 33, all connected by pipelines.
[0028] The inlet of the compressor 32 at the top of the deionization tower is connected to the gas phase outlet at the top of the deionization tower 2, allowing the gas phase at the top of the deionization tower 2 to enter the compressor 32 for pressurization and heating. The outlet of the compressor 32 is connected to the inlet of the distribution manifold, allowing the pressurized and heated gas phase at the top of the deionization tower 2 to enter the distribution manifold. Then, through the outlets of the various branches of the distribution manifold, the gas phase enters the reboiler 19 of the hydrogen-containing tower, the reboiler 21 of the azeotropic tower, the reboiler 23 of the trimethylolpropionate tower, and the reboiler 17 of the light fractionation tower, respectively, providing a heat source for the operation of each reboiler. The condensate formed by the condensation of the gas phase in each reboiler is then returned to the deionization tower 2 through pipelines. Similarly, the top compressor 33 of the binary column pressurizes and heats the top gas phase of the binary column 3 and then delivers it to the reboiler 14 of the binary column, providing a heat source for the reboiler 14. The condensate from the reboiler 14 is then returned to the binary column 3 through pipelines. The methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment recovers and reuses the top gas phases of the de-lowering column 2 and the binary column 3 through the top compressor 32 of the de-lowering column and the top compressor 33 of the binary column, reducing the overall heat energy consumption of the operation.
[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment also includes a cracking tower 9, a cracking tower reboiler 25, a cracking tower top condenser 26, a disproportionation tower 10, a disproportionation tower reboiler 27, and a disproportionation tower top condenser 28. The crude monomer from the high-boiling-point cracking unit enters the cracking tower 9 for processing. The vapor phase at the top of the cracking tower 9 is completely condensed into liquid in the cracking tower top condenser 26. A portion of this liquid is refluxed back into the cracking tower 9, while the other portion, as a product, is mixed with the disproportionation monomer feedstock and then enters the disproportionation tower 10. The bottom product of the cracking tower 9 is collected as a non-crackable high-boiling-point substance and sent out of the boundary area. The raw crude monomer is mixed with the product from the bottom of disproportionation tower 10 and then fed into the high-boiling-point tower 1. The high-boiling-point product collected from the bottom of disproportionation tower 10 is sent out of the boundary area. The vapor phase at the top of the high-boiling-point tower 1 is completely condensed into liquid by the reboiler 13 at the bottom of the low-boiling-point tower. A portion of this liquid is refluxed back into the high-boiling-point tower 1 through a pipeline, while the other portion is sent as product to the low-boiling-point tower 2 for further processing. Therefore, the newly added cracking tower 9 and disproportionation tower 10 recover crude monomers such as dimethyl from the products of the high-boiling-point cracking unit and the low-boiling-point disproportionation unit, respectively, thereby improving the yield of dimethyl.
[0030] Furthermore, the outlet of the compressor 32 at the top of the descaling tower is connected to the hot side inlet of the reboiler 27 at the bottom of the disproportionation tower 10 via a distribution manifold. The hot side outlet of the reboiler 27 at the bottom of the disproportionation tower is connected to the reflux liquid inlet at the top of the descaling tower 2 via a pipeline. The compressor 32 at the top of the descaling tower inputs the gas phase at the top of the descaling tower 2 to the reboiler 27 at the bottom of the disproportionation tower to provide it with a heat source, thereby realizing the recycling of internal heat energy and further reducing the consumption of external steam.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the separation system for methylchlorosilane monomers provided in this embodiment also includes a low-boiling tower 11. The low-boiling tower 11 is connected to the light separation tower 5 through a pipeline. After the gas phase at the top of the light separation tower 5 is completely condensed into liquid in the condenser 18 at the top of the light separation tower, a portion of it flows back into the light separation tower 5 through reflux, while the other portion enters the low-boiling tower 11 as a product to purify and extract the dimethyl hydrogen and tetramethyl from the low-boiling product produced by the light separation tower 5, thereby improving the quality of the product. The dimethyl hydrogen is extracted from the top of the tower and transported to the storage tank area, while the tetramethyl product is extracted from the side stream and transported to the storage tank area. Similarly, the compressor 32 at the top of the de-boiling tower pressurizes and heats the gas phase at the top of the de-boiling tower 2 and then delivers it to the reboiler 29 at the bottom of the low-boiling tower 11 to provide a heat source. The hot side outlet of the reboiler 29 is connected to the reflux liquid inlet at the top of the de-boiling tower 2 through a pipeline, so that the condensed liquid flows back to the de-boiling tower 2.
[0032] In one specific embodiment, considering that the downstream low-boiling disproportionation unit does not have high purity requirements for the methylchlorosilane raw material, a portion of the product collected from the top of the binary tower 3 provided in this embodiment is sent to the methylchlorosilane purification tower 4, while the other portion, as crude methylchlorosilane product, is sent to the low-boiling disproportionation unit. The product sent to the methylchlorosilane purification tower 4 accounts for 1 / 3 to 1 / 4 of the total product. Compared with the prior art where the methylchlorosilane product is completely purified before being sent to downstream units, the methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment reduces the energy consumption required for methylchlorosilane purification, further reducing the overall operating energy consumption.
[0033] Furthermore, the top vapor outlet of the high-pressure stripping column 1 is connected to the hot-side inlet of the reboiler 13 of the low-pressure stripping column. By increasing the pressure of the high-pressure stripping column 1, the temperature of the top vapor in the high-pressure stripping column 1 is raised to heat the reboiler 13 of the low-pressure stripping column, thereby reducing steam consumption. The hot-side outlet of the reboiler 13 of the low-pressure stripping column is connected to the top reflux liquid inlet of the high-pressure stripping column 1, allowing the condensed liquid to flow back into the high-pressure stripping column 1 through a pipeline. In a specific embodiment, the top temperature of the high-pressure stripping column 1 is 118°C, and the bottom temperature of the low-pressure stripping column 2 is 98°C, with a temperature difference of 20°C.
[0034] To ensure that the overhead gas phase of the depressurization tower 2 provides sufficient heat energy for the reboilers after being pressurized by the overhead compressor 32, the temperature of the overhead gas phase of the depressurization tower 2 after being pressurized by the overhead compressor 32 should be no less than 100-130°C. In a specific embodiment, the outlet gas temperature of the overhead compressor 32 is 117°C. The temperature difference between the overhead gas phase of the binary column 3 after being pressurized by the binary compressor 33 and the reboiler temperature of the binary column 3 should be no less than 5-25°C. In a specific embodiment, the outlet gas temperature of the binary compressor 33 is 113°C, and the reboiler temperature of the binary column 3 is 98°C, with a temperature difference of 15°C. The compression ratios of the overhead compressor 32 and the binary compressor 33 range from 1.5 to 5. In a specific embodiment, the compression ratio of the overhead compressor 32 is 3, and the compression ratio of the binary compressor 33 is 2.5. By setting the parameters as described above, the stability of the methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment is ensured, while the energy consumption of the entire system is kept low.
[0035] In another specific embodiment, the methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment splits the binary tower used in the conventional process for separating monomethyl and dimethyl silane into a binary tower 3 and a monomethyl silane purification tower 4. The total height of the two towers after splitting is the same as that of the binary tower in the prior art. However, the diameter of the monomethyl silane purification tower 4 provided in this embodiment is only 2 / 3 of the diameter of the binary tower 3 (the monomethyl silane product yield and purity requirements are kept consistent), thereby reducing the overall investment cost.
[0036] In summary, the specific operating steps of the methylchlorosilane monomer separation system provided in this embodiment are as follows:
[0037] 1. After the raw material crude monomer is mixed with the product from the bottom of the disproportionation tower 10, it enters the high-boiling product tower 1. The high-boiling product is collected from the bottom of the tower and sent out of the boundary area. The gas phase at the top of the high-boiling product tower 1 is completely condensed into liquid by the reboiler 13 at the bottom of the low-boiling product tower. Part of it flows back into the high-boiling product tower 1, and the other part enters the low-boiling product tower 2 for further processing.
[0038] 2. The gas phase at the top of the depressurization tower 2 is pressurized by the compressor 32 at the top of the depressurization tower. After pressurization, the gas phase flows through the distribution manifold into the reboilers 17, 19, 21, 23, 27, and 29 of the light fractionation tower, hydrogen-containing tower, azeotropic tower, trimethylolpropane tower, disproportionation tower, and low-boiling tower, providing heat energy. After being completely condensed into liquid, part of the liquid flows back to the depressurization tower 2 through the pipeline, while the other part is mixed with the top product of the disproportionation tower 10 and the bottom product of the low-boiling tower 11 and then enters the light fractionation tower 5. The bottom product of the light fractionation tower 5 is mixed with the bottom product of the monomethylolpropane purification tower 4 and then sent to the binary tower 3 for processing.
[0039] 3. The vapor phase at the top of the binary tower 3 enters the binary tower top compressor 33 for pressurization. After pressurization, the vapor phase provides heat energy to the reboiler 14 at the bottom of the binary tower. After being completely condensed into liquid, it is divided into three parts for processing. The first part flows back to the binary tower 3 through pipelines. The second part is collected as a product and sent to the monomethyl purification tower 4 for processing and purification. The third part is sent out of the boundary area as crude monomethyl product. The dimethyl product collected from the bottom of the binary tower 3 is sent to the storage tank area.
[0040] 4. After the vapor phase at the top of the monomethyl purification tower 4 is completely condensed into liquid in the top condenser 16 of the monomethyl purification tower, part of the liquid flows back into the monomethyl purification tower 4, and the other part is sent to the storage tank area as monomethyl product. The product taken from the bottom of the monomethyl purification tower 4 is recycled back to the binary tower 3.
[0041] 5. After the gas phase at the top of the light separation column 5 is completely condensed into liquid in the light separation column top condenser 18, part of it is returned to the light separation column 5, and the rest is sent to the low boiling column 11 as product; the product taken from the bottom of the light separation column 5 flows into the hydrogen-containing column 6.
[0042] 6. After the gas phase at the top of the hydrogen-containing tower 6 is completely condensed into liquid in the condenser 20 at the top of the hydrogen-containing tower, part of it flows back to the hydrogen-containing tower 6, and the other part is sent to the storage tank area or the discharge area as a hydrogen-containing product. The product taken out from the bottom of the hydrogen-containing tower 6 flows into the azeotropic tower 7.
[0043] 7. After the vapor phase at the top of the azeotropic tower 7 is completely condensed into liquid in the condenser 22 at the top of the azeotropic tower, part of it flows back into the azeotropic tower 7, and the other part is sent to the storage tank area or the discharge area as azeotropic product. The product taken out from the bottom of the azeotropic tower 7 flows into the tertiary azeotropic tower 8.
[0044] 8. After the vapor phase at the top of the methyl methacrylate tower 8 is completely condensed into liquid in the condenser 24 at the top of the methyl methacrylate tower, part of it is returned to the methyl methacrylate tower 8, and the remainder is sent to the storage tank area as methyl methacrylate product; the bottom of the methyl methacrylate tower 8 is recycled back to the crude monomer tank area or sent out of the boundary area.
[0045] 9. The cracked monomer feedstock enters cracking tower 9. The gas phase at the top of cracking tower 9 is completely condensed into liquid in the top condenser 26 of cracking tower. A portion of it is returned to cracking tower 9, and the remaining portion is mixed with disproportionated monomer feedstock and enters disproportionation tower 10. The bottom of cracking tower 9 is collected as non-crackable high-boiling-point material and sent out of the boundary area.
[0046] 10. The vapor phase at the top of the disproportionation tower 10 is completely condensed into liquid in the top condenser 28 of the disproportionation tower. Part of it is returned to the disproportionation tower 10, and the remainder enters the light separation tower 5. The bottom product of the disproportionation tower 10 enters the de-elution tower 1.
[0047] 11. After the gas phase at the top of the low-boiling tower 11 is completely condensed into liquid in the condenser 30 at the top of the low-boiling tower, part of it is returned to the low-boiling tower 11, and part of it is collected from the top of the tower as dimethyl hydrogen-containing product and sent to the storage tank area. At the same time, the low-boiling tower is equipped with a side sampling port to collect tetramethyl product and send it to the storage tank area, while the bottom product of the low-boiling tower 11 is recycled back to the light separation tower 5.
