Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fluorine chemical industry, and specifically relates to a technology for resource utilization of fluorine-containing waste gas produced by hexafluoropropylene oxide. Background Art
[0002] Hexafluoropropylene oxide (HFPO) is an important fluorine-containing fine chemical and an important fluorine-containing organic intermediate for the production of perfluoropolyether oil, hexafluoroacetone, hexafluoroisopropanol and fluorine-containing surfactants. Since HFPO has high chemical activity and can react with various nucleophilic reagents, it can produce various perfluoroalkyl vinyl ethers. Perfluoroalkyl vinyl ethers can be used as comonomers or modified monomers to participate in polymerization reactions and are used in the production of melt-processable fluororesins, fluororubbers and fluoropolymers with functional groups, thereby changing the properties of difficult-to-process fluororesins such as polytetrafluoroethylene, and its market demand has developed rapidly.
[0003] At present, the production of hexafluoropropylene oxide in industry is mainly based on hexafluoropropylene as raw material, and adopts molecular oxygen liquid phase method to react at high temperature to obtain, and it is inevitable to produce a large amount of waste gas containing carbonyl fluoride and acetyl fluoride in the reaction process, and this waste gas accounts for 10~30% of the total production as by-product, wherein this waste gas contains 10~50% carbonyl fluoride (CF2O), 10~70% acetyl fluoride (CF3CFO), and there are other fluorine-containing waste gas etc., and this waste gas also has corresponding change because of the different control of production. This waste gas generally adopts water washing and alkali liquor absorption to process, and produces the aqueous hydrofluoric acid with low production value, and is also accompanied by the generation of a large amount of waste water, and can cause waste of resources. Therefore, it is very necessary to fully and reasonably utilize the waste gas by-products such as carbonyl fluoride in production to produce products with utilization value, which can greatly reduce the production cost of perfluoropolyether, and also save the water and alkaline substances consumed by these by-products, and also avoid the trouble of comprehensive discharge wastewater treatment.
[0004] For example, patent CN101817728A discloses a method for producing hexafluoropropylene oxide and co-producing perfluorovinyl ether, comprising introducing hexafluoropropylene oxide into a mixed gas by-product of carbonyl fluoride and perfluoroacetyl fluoride produced during the oxidation of hexafluoropropylene to synthesize hexafluoropropylene oxide, carrying out a polymerization reaction to obtain a corresponding perfluoropolyether mixture, and then subjecting the mixture to a cracking reaction to obtain a perfluorovinyl ether mixture.
[0005] For example, patent CN109678700A discloses a method for preparing byproducts generated in HFPO by comprehensive utilization of oxygen oxidation method, using ultraviolet light to irradiate fluoride solvent to obtain carbonyl fluoride, an important chemical intermediate in fluorine chemical industry, and converting the byproducts into perfluorinated surfactants or fluorine-containing fluids.
[0006] Hydrofluoroether has an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of 0, a low greenhouse effect potential (GWP), and a short residence time in the atmosphere, with almost no impact on the environment. It is an ideal replacement product for the new generation of green and environmentally friendly ODS. Hydrofluoroether is an important fluorine-containing chemical. It has good electrical insulation and environmental performance, low surface tension, low viscosity, low toxicity, high KB value and other advantages, and is widely used in electronic cleaning agents, solvents, lubricant deposition agents and other fields.
[0007] There are many synthetic methods for preparing hydrofluoroethers, such as: acyl fluoride monomer methylation method, 3M company patent CN1177374A disclosed technical solution, under the condition of N, N dimethylformamide solvent, isobutyryl fluoride as raw material, and reacts with metal fluoride and alkylating agent for 16 hours to obtain nonafluoroisobutyl methyl ether, and reacts for 72 hours to obtain nonafluoroisobutyl ethyl ether. This method has been industrialized. However, due to the high cost of preparing acyl fluoride monomers, and the raw material uses HF, which has high requirements for equipment; the main method for preparing perfluorobutyryl fluoride in industry at present is through electrolytic fluorination, using butyryl chloride as raw material to prepare perfluorobutyryl fluoride by electrolytic fluorination. The technical solution disclosed in US6013795A uses electrolysis to prepare perfluorobutyryl fluoride, and the electrolytic efficiency is very low. And because the degree of electrolysis is difficult to control, the purity of the target product perfluorobutyryl fluoride is low and there are many impurities. At the same time, the production price of electrode plates in electrolytic equipment is expensive. The technical solution disclosed in US3351644 uses perfluoroiodide to react with fuming and concentrated sulfuric acid to prepare perfluoroacyl compounds. However, this method has harsh reaction conditions, difficult to obtain raw materials, high equipment requirements, and high operating risks. Therefore, it is not suitable for industrial scale-up production.
[0008] Chinese patent CN109503366B discloses that hexafluoropropylene dimer is used as raw material, and is cracked at high temperature by catalytic oxidation to obtain perfluoroisobutyryl fluoride, which is then reacted with an alkylating agent to obtain perfluoroisobutyl methyl ether. The method is complex, and the catalytic oxidation method has disadvantages such as high cracking temperature, easy to produce carbon deposition, and short catalyst life.
[0009] U.S. Patent No. 5,750,797A proposes to use perfluoroketone as a raw material, and react with an alkylating agent in a suitable solvent system to synthesize a corresponding hydrofluoroether product. In the embodiment part, perfluorohexanone is used as a raw material, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether is used as a solvent, potassium fluoride and a phase transfer catalyst are added, and then reacted with a methylating agent dimethyl sulfate at room temperature to obtain an isolated hydrofluoroether 1,1,2,2,3,4,5,5,5 decafluoro-3-methoxy-4(trifluoromethyl)pentane. The embodiment shows that the reaction yield of this reaction method can reach about 87%, but the reaction cycle is long (more than 24 hours) and the production efficiency is low. Summary of the invention

[0018] Preferably, the reactor is a packed tower reactor.
[0019] Preferably, the intermediate reaction system also includes a liquid phase separation tank connected to the bottom of the packed tower reactor and a circulation pump connecting the upper part of the liquid phase separation tank and the top of the packed tower reactor. The intermediate product produced by the reaction of the packed tower reactor is deposited in the lower layer of the liquid phase separation tank. Under the action of the circulation pump, the upper catalyst continuously circulates in the intermediate reaction system to participate in the reaction, thereby realizing continuous production.
[0020] Preferably, the intermediate reaction system further comprises a catalyst synthesis kettle connected to the liquid phase separation tank, which is used for preparing the catalyst, and the prepared catalyst is fed into the upper layer of the liquid phase separation tank.
[0021] Preferably, the perfluorinated intermediate product and the fluorination agent are first injected into the alkylation reactor and stirred to combine; then the alkylation agent is added to the alkylation reactor, the reaction temperature is maintained at 20 to 150° C., and the reaction is carried out for 3 to 72 hours.

[0026] The process of producing hydrofluoroether products is combined with the resource utilization of mixed gas by-products, providing a production system for producing hexafluoropropylene oxide while utilizing fluorine-containing waste gas resources and co-producing hydrofluoroethers, so that the inevitable by-products in the process of producing hexafluoropropylene oxide by high-temperature oxidation of hexafluoropropylene no longer need to be washed and discharged, causing the cost of sewage treatment and the risk of sewage leakage, but the by-products are further reacted to synthesize corresponding high-value-added hydrofluoroether products, so that the purpose of producing hexafluoropropylene oxide is achieved, and the high-value-added products produced by the reaction of fluorine-containing waste gas resources are fully utilized, thereby making the process more reasonable and the flow more optimized, and the equipment cost is relatively low, and industrialization is more economical.
[0027] The specific technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention will be described in detail in the following specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0028] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0029] Figure 1 It is a process flow chart of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] According to the existing synthesis technology of hexafluoropropylene oxide: the production of hexafluoropropylene oxide in industry mainly uses hexafluoropropylene as raw material, and adopts molecular oxygen liquid phase method to react hexafluoropropylene with oxygen under certain temperature, pressure and inert solvent to obtain, and it is inevitable to produce a large amount of waste gas containing carbonyl fluoride and acetyl fluoride during the reaction process. The waste gas accounts for 10-30% of the total production as a by-product. Therefore, the product mixed gas includes the product hexafluoropropylene oxide, the by-product carbonyl fluoride, perfluoroacetyl fluoride, perfluoropropionyl fluoride and the mixed gas of unreacted hexafluoropropylene and oxygen, and the equation is as follows:
[0032] Main reaction:
[0033]
[0034] Side effects:
[0035]
[0036] The product mixed gas obtained from the hexafluoropropylene oxide production reactor is sent to a light-removal tower, and most of the heavy components hexafluoropropylene oxide, hexafluoropropylene and entrained solvents are collected and sent to an extraction distillation system to obtain high-purity hexafluoropropylene oxide. The top of the tower contains light components such as oxygen, formyl fluoride, acetyl fluoride, etc., which are also called fluorine-containing waste gas.
[0037] Since the by-products of hexafluoropropylene oxide production are inevitable, it is very necessary to make full and reasonable use of the by-products with utilization value in the reaction. This can greatly reduce the production cost of synthesizing hexafluoropropylene oxide, save the water and alkaline substances consumed in treating these by-products, and avoid the trouble of comprehensive wastewater treatment, thus creating value while avoiding pollution and waste caused by emissions.
[0038] In order to recycle the fluorine-containing waste gas in the production of hexafluoropropylene oxide and solve the problems of high cost and low production efficiency of hydrofluoroether products in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for recycle the mixed gas byproduct of carbonyl fluoride and perfluoroacetyl fluoride produced in the process of synthesizing hexafluoropropylene oxide by oxidation of hexafluoropropylene to produce hydrofluoroether.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for producing hexafluoropropylene oxide with fluorine-containing waste gas and co-producing hydrofluoroether of the present invention comprises: firstly, reacting the fluorine-containing waste gas in the production of hexafluoropropylene oxide under the action of a fluorine ion catalyst system to generate a perfluorinated intermediate product, or, simultaneously, introducing hexafluoropropylene to react and produce an intermediate product.
[0040] Here, whether hexafluoropropylene is introduced or not is related to the composition of the mixed gas. When the mixed waste gas to be treated contains a small amount of hexafluoropropylene or hexafluoropropylene oxide, hexafluoropropylene needs to be introduced to participate in the reaction; when the mixed gas to be treated contains hexafluoropropylene and hexafluoropropylene oxide, and the content is relatively high (for example, greater than 50%, which can also be adjusted as needed), hexafluoropropylene is not introduced, and the hexafluoropropylene or hexafluoropropylene oxide contained in the gas itself participates in the reaction. Regardless of whether hexafluoropropylene is introduced or not, the intermediate obtained is the same, but the content of the intermediate will be different.
[0041] Then, in the alkylation reactor, the perfluorinated intermediate product reacts with the alkylation agent under the action of the fluorination agent to produce hydrofluoroether products. The lower layer mixture product in the alkylation reactor can be washed with alkali, washed with water, and distilled to obtain hydrofluoroethers of different structures, the molecular formula of which is as follows, wherein Me = CH3, CH2CH3, CH2CF3:
[0042]
[0043] It is understandable that the content of each component in the mixed gas is different due to the selection of different catalyst systems or different temperature pressures or solvents, and the ratio of each mixed gas is not limited. This is because in the mixed gas raw materials required for the co-production of hydrofluoroether, there is no special requirement for whether the light-removing tower completely separates hexafluoropropylene oxide and hexafluoropropylene, because both hexafluoropropylene oxide and hexafluoropropylene can continue to participate in the reaction as raw materials. Therefore, in the mixed gas at the top of the light-removing tower, in addition to formyl fluoride, acetyl fluoride and oxygen, it is completely allowed to carry a certain amount of heptafluoropropionyl fluoride, hexafluoropropylene oxide, and hexafluoropropylene. In addition, since the boiling point of oxygen is -183°C, it is easy to remove oxygen in the deoxygenation tower to obtain a mixed gas mainly composed of formyl fluoride and acetyl fluoride. The mixed gas obtained from the deoxidation tower contains 10-50% carbonyl fluoride (CF2O), 10-70% acetyl fluoride (CF3CFO), and other fluorine-containing waste gases such as hexafluoropropylene oxide and hexafluoropropylene. The content of the waste gas will also change accordingly due to different production and distillation control. Generally speaking, the mixed gas raw materials include formyl fluoride, acetyl fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, hexafluoropropylene oxide, and perfluoropropionyl fluoride, of which the total content of formyl fluoride and trifluoroacetyl fluoride accounts for 20-99.5%.
[0044] The above-mentioned intermediate products include perfluoropropionyl fluoride, perfluoro-2-methyl-propionyl fluoride, perfluoro-3-methyl-2-butanone, perfluoro-2-methyl-3-pentanone, perfluoro-2-methoxy-propionyl fluoride, and perfluoro-2-ethoxy-propionyl fluoride.
[0045] When hexafluoropropylene is introduced at the same time to react and produce the intermediate product, the above hexafluoropropylene is in gaseous or liquid state, preferably in gaseous state, to prevent the addition of excessive hexafluoropropylene and reduce the generation of by-products.
[0046] Furthermore, the above-mentioned hexafluoropropylene can come from the hexafluoropropylene recovered from the decomposition tower of the hexafluoropropylene oxidation device or the by-product hexafluoropropylene recovered from the tetrafluoroethylene device or purchased from the market. The hexafluoropropylene recovered from the decomposition tower of the hexafluoropropylene oxidation device is preferred, so as to realize the closed loop of raw material use of the entire device, and also avoid the impact of unqualified recovered hexafluoropropylene on production.
[0047] The above-mentioned reaction process is all carried out in an anhydrous system, such as a tower reaction system, and its reaction process can be produced continuously or intermittently. With reference to the prior art, the above-mentioned tower reaction system includes a catalyst circulation pump, a main reactor connected to the circulation pump, a liquid phase separation tank (or a separator) connected to the main reactor, and a catalyst synthesis reactor (or catalyst preparation tank) connected to the liquid phase separation tank, and the catalyst in the whole reaction process is continuously circulated under the action of the pump. The reactor is a convection reactor or a liquid flow contact reactor, including a spray tower reactor, a packed tower reactor, a plate tower reactor, a bubbling reactor, a tubular reactor, etc. In addition, for other gas-liquid mixing reactors, such as intermittent reactors, micro-pipeline reactors are also applicable. The preferred spray tower reactor of the present invention.
[0048] Furthermore, the spray tower reaction system includes a catalyst spray tower, a reaction packing tower connected to the spray tower, a liquid phase separation tank connected to the reaction packing tower, a catalyst circulation pump and a catalyst synthesis kettle connected to the liquid phase separation tank, and the catalyst continuously circulates and reacts under the action of the pump during the entire reaction process. The advantage of this reaction system is that the products produced by the reaction can quickly leave the area and be separated in the liquid separation tank, avoiding the production products from further participating in the reaction and causing more by-products to be produced. In addition, the catalyst is continuously recycled to avoid contact with air, and the catalyst can achieve a longer life span.
[0049] Specifically, the reaction of fluorine-containing waste gas under the action of fluorine ion catalyst system to generate perfluorinated intermediate products includes the following steps:
[0050] adding a fluoride ion catalyst solution into the tower reaction system;
[0051] Then, the fluorine-containing waste gas or hexafluoropropylene is introduced into the tower reaction system for continuous reaction, the reaction temperature is maintained at 20-100° C., the reaction is carried out for 3-12 hours, the reaction product is separated into layers in a liquid separation tank, and the intermediate product in the lower layer is distilled to obtain a perfluorinated intermediate product;
[0052] Before introducing fluorine-containing waste gas into the tower reaction system or introducing hexafluoropropylene at the same time for continuous reaction, part of the fluorine-containing waste gas is introduced into the reaction system, and the reaction temperature is maintained at -20 to 50°C. This part of the fluorine-containing waste gas is fully contacted with the circulating fluoride ion solution catalyst to react and form an activated intermediate.
[0053] When the mixed gas and hexafluoropropylene are introduced simultaneously, the mixed gas needs to be introduced into the reaction system in advance, and the introduced amount accounts for 1-20% of the mass ratio of the mixed gas, and then the mixed gas and hexafluoropropylene are introduced simultaneously at a certain molar ratio.
[0054] If only mixed gas is used as raw material, there is no need to pass a portion of it in advance, but it can be directly introduced into the reaction.
[0055] The preparation method of the fluoride ion catalyst solution is as follows: anhydrous metal fluoride salt, organic solvent and co-solvent are stirred and dissolved at 50°C to 200°C, then the temperature is lowered to room temperature, a certain amount of fluorine-containing gas is introduced, and the reaction pressure is gradually reduced to equilibrium, the catalytic system is activated, and the fluoride ion catalyst solution is obtained.

[0062] The reaction process and principle of the present invention are described as follows:
[0063] A portion of the mixed gas collected from the deoxidation tower is introduced into the tower reactor in advance to fully combine with the fluoride ion catalyst, and the reaction temperature is maintained at -20 to 50°C. The catalyst solution is circulated for a period of time, and then the raw material is primed. The purpose is that the mixed gas acyl fluoride and fluoride ions form oxygen anions (RCF2O - ) and the acyl fluoride gas is in excess, when hexafluoropropylene or hexafluoropropylene oxide present in the mixed gas is introduced, it is directly attacked by oxygen anions to form intermediate products, reducing the self-polymerization of hexafluoropropylene to produce by-products such as hexafluoropropylene dimers and trimers.
[0064] Then the mixed gas and hexafluoropropylene are simultaneously introduced into the reactor at a molar ratio of 1 to 1.5:1 or the mixed gas is introduced separately, and the reaction temperature is controlled between -20 and 100°C, preferably 20 to 80°C. According to the prior art, carbonyl fluoride, perfluoroacetyl fluoride, perfluoropropionyl fluoride, hexafluoropropylene oxide and hexafluoropropylene can undergo nucleophilic addition reaction under the action of fluoride ion catalyst to produce carbonyl fluoride, ketone and other carbonyl compounds. The products synthesized by the reaction in this process are layered in a liquid separation tank, and the intermediate products in the lower layer are distilled to obtain intermediate products such as perfluoro-2-methyl-propionyl fluoride, perfluoro-2-methoxy-propionyl fluoride, perfluoro-4-methyl-2-butanone, and perfluoro-4-methyl-2-pentanone.
[0065] The process can be an intermittent reaction, a semi-continuous reaction or a continuous reaction, and the reactor can be a packed tower reactor, a tubular reactor or an intermittent stirred reactor, etc. The case of the present invention takes the reaction spray packed tower as an example to realize the continuous synthesis of fluorine-containing carbonyl compound intermediates. The fluoride ion catalyst solution is prepared by dissolving anhydrous metal fluoride salts, organic solvents, and additives at 80°C to 200°C, and passing fluorine-containing gas into the reaction, and then recycled in the reaction tower to reuse the catalyst. The product produced by the reaction is deposited in the separatory tank after one addition, realizing a one-step addition of the reaction and avoiding the generation of more by-products.
[0066] In addition, the product in the liquid separation tank and the fluorinating agent system are pumped into the alkylation reactor for alkylation reaction, the alkylating agent is in excess of 1.1 to 1.5 times, and the reaction temperature is controlled at 20 to 150°C, preferably 50 to 100°C. The reaction time is 3 to 72 hours, preferably 3 to 12 hours. After the reaction is completed, the lower layer product is washed with alkali and water to remove the excess alkylating agent, and then dried and entered into the distillation system to obtain different hydrofluoroether products.
[0067] The invention produces hexafluoropropylene oxide and simultaneously utilizes fluorine-containing waste gas as a resource and co-produces hydrofluoroether, so that the inevitable by-products in the process of producing hexafluoropropylene oxide by high-temperature oxidation of hexafluoropropylene no longer need to be washed and discharged to cause the cost of sewage treatment and the risk of sewage leakage, but the by-products are further reacted to synthesize corresponding high-value-added hydrofluoroether products. The method not only achieves the purpose of producing hexafluoropropylene oxide, but also makes full use of the high-value-added products produced by the reaction, so that the process is more reasonable, the flow is more optimized, and the industrialization is more economical.
[0068] The key to the present invention is to utilize the characteristics of the nucleophilic addition reaction of the by-product acyl fluoride in the raw material with hexafluoropropylene, and utilize the characteristics of the addition product for preparing hydrofluoroether by the same alkylation process, so as to obtain hydrofluoroether products with different structures. These hydrofluoroether products are widely used in the fields of semiconductor temperature control fluid, data center immersion heat exchange fluid, base station or weak current equipment charged cleaning agent and inert diluent, and have high added value.
[0069] The equation for the reaction process of the present invention is as follows:
[0070]
[0071] Where Me is -CH3, -CH2CH 3, -CH2CF3;
[0072] The process flow chart of the present invention is as follows Figure 1 As shown: the crude HFPO gas in the reactor is passed into the lightness removal tower, and the heavy components such as hexafluoropropylene oxide, hexafluoropropylene and some fluorinated solvents are separated under the conditions of controlling the pressure to 0-1.0 MPa and the tower top temperature to -40°C to 0°C, and the hexafluoropropylene oxide extraction and refining system is removed.
[0073] The light components separated from the top of the light removal tower enter the deoxygenation tower, and the non-condensable gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide are removed under the conditions of controlling the pressure at 2.0Mpa and the top temperature at -30℃, and a fluorine-containing gas mixed with formyl fluoride, perfluoroacetyl fluoride, HFP, HFPO, and perfluoropropionyl fluoride is obtained. Of course, due to the different distillation control conditions and changes in the synthesis process conditions, the composition of the obtained mixed gas will change.
[0074] Fluorine-containing mixed gas and hexafluoropropylene are introduced into a spray tower reaction system, which includes a reaction tower, a liquid separator, a catalyst preparation tank, and a circulation pump. In the reaction tower, the reaction is carried out under the action of a fluorine ion catalyst. The density of the intermediate product produced by the reaction is greater than that of the organic solvent and is deposited in the lower layer of the liquid separator. The product leaves the reaction tower area, which can further avoid the secondary addition of the product and reduce the generation of by-products. At the same time, the upper catalyst is continuously circulated in the reaction system under the action of a circulation pump to participate in the reaction, thereby realizing continuous production.
[0075] The lower intermediate product layer is pumped into the alkylation reactor, a fluorination agent is added and stirred for a period of time, and then an alkylation agent is added to achieve the alkylation of the intermediate product. The alkylation product needs to pass through an alkali washing tower, a water washing tower and a drying tower, and is alkali washed, water washed and dried accordingly, and finally enters the distillation system to obtain different hydrofluoroether products, including product 1, product 2, and product 3.
