Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical synthesis, and in particular to a method for treating wastewater produced by p-hydroxybenzonitrile. Background Art

[0002] 4-Cyanophenol is an organic compound, which is mostly used as an intermediate of organophosphorus insecticides cypermethrin and benzonitrile. It can also be used to synthesize liquid crystal materials, pesticides, fragrances, etc. There are many preparation methods, such as ammoniation of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, ammoniation of methyl p-hydroxybenzoate, ammoniation of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, diazonium salt method, etc. At present, the mainstream synthesis process of p-hydroxybenzonitrile in China is to melt and react p-hydroxybenzoic acid, urea, and phosphorus pentasulfide, and then distill under reduced pressure, wash, centrifuge, and dry to obtain the product, with a yield of 75%. Its main reaction mechanism is that urea reacts with p-hydroxybenzoic acid to form amide, and then dehydrates intramolecularly under the conditions of dehydrating agent and high temperature reaction to form p-hydroxybenzonitrile.

[0003] Wastewater is inevitably produced in the production process of p-hydroxybenzonitrile. Since one of its main raw materials is urea, the wastewater contains a large amount of ammonia nitrogen substances. The current conventional treatment method is to use an ammonia stripping device to treat the wastewater, separate and recycle the ammonia nitrogen materials to form a by-product ammonia water, thereby obtaining certain economic benefits and reducing costs. However, the current ammonia stripping device has a large energy consumption. For every 60 tons of p-hydroxybenzonitrile wastewater treated, about 6.0 tons of liquid caustic soda and about 9.0 to 10.0 tons of steam are consumed, while only about 4.0 to 4.5 tons of 20% ammonia water can be produced as a by-product. During its production and operation, the consumption of liquid caustic soda and steam is large, the system operation energy consumption is high, and the by-product output is insufficient, resulting in low overall economic benefits. Therefore, a better method for treating p-hydroxybenzonitrile production wastewater is needed. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for treating p-hydroxybenzonitrile production wastewater, which solves the problems in the prior art of high raw material consumption, system operation energy consumption, insufficient by-product output, and low overall economic benefits.

[0005] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for treating p-hydroxybenzonitrile production wastewater comprises the following steps:

[0006] S1. Alkali adjustment: put the p-hydroxybenzonitrile wastewater into the alkali liquid pool, add 32% liquid alkali to adjust the pH value to 9-9.5, so that the raw water reaches the stripping balance and improves the removal rate;

[0007] S2, stripping: the solution after the reduction is pumped into the ammonia stripping tower through the preheater, and the tower bottom is heated with steam while evacuating, and alkali is added to increase the pH of the solution in the ammonia stripping tower, so that the ammonia nitrogen concentration in the tower bottom water is not higher than 500 mg / l, and the pH is 9-9.5, and the equilibrium removal rate is increased, so that the ammonia nitrogen in the tower bottom water is ≤500ppm, and the pH is ≥8.5;

[0008] S3, absorption: the solution blown out is pumped into the absorption kettle, and the circulating water pump and condensed water are turned on for circulating absorption. When the ammonia concentration is ≥20%, it is transferred to the neutralization kettle for standby use or pumped into the ammonia tank;

[0009] S4, neutralization: start the neutralization kettle and stir, add 30% hydrochloric acid by mass, adjust pH=6.5, after pH adjustment, insert the filter, open the vacuum of the concentration kettle, and draw the filtered solution into the concentration kettle for standby use;

[0010] S5, concentration: start the concentration kettle and stir, heat and concentrate the solution in the concentration kettle, and pass the water vapor generated by the concentration into the ammonia stripping tower to heat the ammonia stripping tower as a heat source; at the same time, observe the concentration change of the ammonium chloride solution in the concentration kettle. When the ammonium chloride solution turns white and a large amount of crystals precipitate, close the steam heating valve to stop heating, and at the same time, open the jacket cooling water to cool the concentration kettle. When the temperature drops below 40°C, stop cooling and prepare for discharging centrifugation;

[0011] S6. Centrifugation: After cooling, open the bottom valve of the concentration kettle to release the crude ammonium chloride, use a 400-mesh filter bag for centrifugal separation, and recycle the mother liquor after recovery. The solid filter cake obtained by centrifugation is the ammonium chloride crystal product.

[0012] Preferably, in step S2, the liquid level in the ammonia stripping tower is controlled at 1300 / 2200-1800 / 2200 mm, and the vacuum degree is 0.04-0.07 MPa; at the same time, the bottom temperature is 85-100°C, and the top temperature is 65-75°C; the reflux rate of the ammonia stripping tower is 150-300 L / h, and the inlet and outlet water flow rates are 2000-2500 L / h.

[0013] Preferably, in step S3, the cyclic absorption temperature is ≤40°C.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S4, the flow rate of adding hydrochloric acid is reduced at the end of the neutralization reaction to avoid excessive addition of hydrochloric acid, which makes the solution strongly acidic.

[0015] Furthermore, in step S4, the filter paper and filter cloth need to be checked before each filtration. If the filter paper is damaged, it should be replaced immediately. The filter cloth needs to be rinsed with steam after every two filtrations.

[0016] Preferably, in step S5, the reaction temperature of the concentration kettle is 110-120°C.

[0017] Furthermore, in step S6, before the centrifugation starts, the low speed switch is turned on, the material is discharged, and the centrifuge window is observed. When the material approaches the rinse pipe or the feed pipe, the discharge valve is closed, the centrifuge is started, and the centrifuge is centrifuged at medium speed for 30 minutes.

[0018] Further, in step S6, after the deliquoring is completed, the centrifuge is turned off, and the flat-plate four-legged centrifuge performs energy consumption braking until the drum stops rotating. After the flat-plate four-legged centrifuge stops rotating, the locking handle is loosened to open the centrifuge shell flap, and the filter cake is taken out together with the filter bag, and then the filter cake is poured into the material bag and the filter bag is checked to see if it is intact, and it is re-laid, the shell flap is covered and the handle is locked to start the next working cycle; when the operation is completed, the inner wall of the drum, the inner wall of the shell cylinder, and the outer wall of the drum of the flat-plate four-legged centrifuge need to be manually cleaned to prevent severe rust before the next use.

[0019] Furthermore, in step S6, after centrifugation, the filter bag and the centrifuge are cleaned and dried, and the ammonium chloride crystals obtained by centrifugation are sampled and sent for inspection, and the moisture, content and nitrogen content are measured, and the weight is recorded.

[0020] The technical principle of the present invention is: deammoniation is carried out by vacuum distillation. Under the action of sufficient alkali, the ammonia nitrogen of the extracted phenol wastewater is completely converted into free ammonia, and the wastewater is metered and pumped into the distillation tower. The wastewater is gradually dropped to the tower bottom through the stripping section. Low-pressure steam is directly heated in the tower bottom. Ammonia is separated at a certain temperature and corresponding vacuum degree. The gas ammonia concentration in the distillation section increases with the vertical height. The gas ammonia concentration reaches a peak value when the tower is discharged. The gas ammonia comes out from the top of the tower with part of the water vapor, and is cooled by the tower top condenser. The condensate (low-concentration ammonia water) formed by the water vapor is pumped to the top of the tower for total reflux. The gas ammonia is absorbed by the water jet pump of the ammonia absorption tank to become ammonia water. The ammonia water is neutralized with hydrochloric acid, concentrated, and centrifuged to make the finished ammonium chloride product. At the same time, after the ammonia water is separated, the water outlet from the tower bottom has met the qualified standard of ammonia nitrogen concentration, and can be sent to the sewage station for further treatment.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The present invention introduces a hydrochloric acid neutralization device and an ammonium chloride concentration device on the basis of a traditional ammonia stripping device. The former can directly absorb the ammonia gas generated by the ammonia stripping device to generate ammonium chloride by-product, while the latter can form high-temperature water vapor in the process of concentrating the ammonium chloride solution. At the same time, the high-temperature water vapor is introduced into the ammonia stripping device as a heat source, thereby greatly reducing the additional energy consumption required for the operation of the ammonia stripping device, improving the economy and environmental protection of the system operation, realizing the effective utilization of resources and the improvement of economic benefits, and providing a useful reference for the green development of the chemical industry;

[0023] 2. The present invention only introduces cheap industrial by-product hydrochloric acid as a new raw material, and can process the original ammonia product into a new ammonium chloride product, which greatly increases the value of the by-product and improves the overall economic benefits. At the same time, the high-temperature steam generated in the process of producing ammonium chloride can also be used as a heat source for the ammonia stripping device, further reducing the cost.
