Technical Field

[0002] Ethyl acetate has excellent solubility and quick drying properties. It is a very important organic chemical raw material and an excellent industrial solvent. It is widely used in a variety of production processes. In the production process of ethyl acetate, esterification reaction is the key step in producing ethyl acetate. During the esterification reaction, ethanol, acetic acid and a catalyst are usually added to the reactor, and the stirring device is turned on for stirring. The purpose of stirring is to fully mix the reactants to ensure the smooth progress of the esterification reaction.
[0003] The patent with the announcement number CN221085627U discloses an esterification separation device for ethyl acetate production, comprising a shell, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a bottom plate, and the top of which is fixedly connected to a conduit. The advantages of the patent are: the esterification separation device for ethyl acetate production adds esterified ethyl acetate and anhydrous concentrated sulfuric acid into the enclosure through a feed pipe, starts the motor, and the output shaft of the motor rotates to drive the stirring shaft to rotate, and the stirring shaft rotates to mix the ethyl acetate with the anhydrous concentrated sulfuric acid, and the anhydrous concentrated sulfuric acid has water absorption, and then absorbs the water in the reaction process of ethyl acetate, and then the anhydrous concentrated sulfuric acid becomes crystals and is discharged from the discharge pipe for collection, and the esterified water is absorbed, so that the purity of the product is guaranteed, and the problem that only using a permeable membrane to remove water is not efficient, and thus the esterification efficiency of ethyl acetate is not high is solved.
[0004] However, the above technical solution still has the following deficiencies in practical application: During the esterification reaction, a catalyst needs to be added. When a solid particulate catalyst needs to be added, the catalyst may be concentrated in a certain place in the stirring chamber.

[0016] An energy-saving ethyl acetate production method comprises the following specific steps: S1. Add a certain amount of acetic acid and ethyl ester into the feed hopper respectively, close the valve, then add the solid granular catalyst into the lower barrel, and then use the barrel cover to cover the upper end of the lower barrel. Then, drive the lower barrel to rotate continuously, and under the action of centrifugal force, the catalyst can be thrown out through the through hole into the inner cavity of the reactor, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor; S2, drive the barrel cover to open, extend the rotating frame into the discharge barrel, rotate the lifting plate, and make the push rods align with the multiple groups of through holes in turn. When the push rods are aligned with the through holes, drive the push rods to pass through the through holes to push the catalysts that block the through holes and adhere to the through hole walls, so that they fall into the reactor to prevent the through holes from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect. In addition, since the spring provides an elastic force for the push rod when it is reset, when the push rod uses this elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity, and will move more violently, which can intensify the dispersion of the catalyst particles, further improve the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, and is beneficial to the subsequent reaction; S3. During the movement of the push rod, the worm gear, the rotating shaft and the blade are driven to rotate simultaneously. When the blade rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be broken at the moment when the push rod contacts the catalyst particles, making them easier to react. In addition, since the blade fits the surface of the push rod, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod. When the push rod is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel again. S4. After the catalyst particles in all the through holes are added into the reactor, the stirring shaft and the stirring blades are driven to rotate to stir the ethanol, acetic acid and the catalyst for reaction. Finally, the generated ethyl acetate is discharged through the discharge pipe.
[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The energy-saving ethyl acetate production equipment and method described in the present invention utilizes an anti-blocking ejection mechanism. After the solid granular catalyst is added to the discharge barrel, the catalyst can be ejected into the inner cavity of the reactor through the through hole under the action of centrifugal force, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor, thereby avoiding the situation that the stirring blades and the catalyst are not in sufficient contact due to the accumulation of the catalyst in a certain place in the inner cavity of the reactor, thereby affecting the stirring effect. Moreover, when the through hole is blocked by the catalyst, the push rod can be aligned with multiple groups of through holes in turn, and the push rod can be passed through the through hole to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole and adheres to the hole wall of the through hole, so that it falls into the reactor, thereby preventing the through hole from being blocked, ensuring the subsequent ejection effect, and increasing the amount of catalyst added, and, When the push rod uses elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity and move more violently, which can intensify the dispersion of the catalyst particles, further improve the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, and is beneficial to subsequent reactions. In addition, during the movement of the push rod, the motor can be used to drive the worms on the upper and lower sides to rotate, so that the worm wheel, the shaft, and the blade rotate at the same time. When the blade rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be broken at the moment when the push rod contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. In addition, since the blade fits the surface of the push rod, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod to prevent the catalyst particles from sticking to the end of the push rod. When the push rod is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel again.
[0018] 2. The energy-saving ethyl acetate production equipment and method described in the present invention, by setting up solar panels, when the equipment is used outdoors, the solar panels can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy to provide part or all of the required electricity for the equipment, thereby reducing the equipment's dependence on grid electricity, achieving energy self-sufficiency, and being more energy-saving.

A motor 3 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the rotating frame 17, and the output end of the motor 3 18 is fixedly connected to the gear 2 19. A rack 20 is fixedly connected to the right end of the upper sliding rod 21, and the partial tooth block of the gear 2 19 is meshed with the tooth block on the rack 20.

It is widely used in a variety of production processes. In the production process of ethyl acetate, esterification reaction is a key step in producing ethyl acetate. In the esterification reaction process, ethanol, acetic acid and a catalyst are usually added to a reactor, and a stirring device is turned on for stirring. The purpose of stirring is to fully mix the reactants to ensure that the esterification reaction proceeds smoothly. When the existing esterification separation device for ethyl acetate production is used, when it is necessary to add a solid particulate catalyst, the catalyst may be concentrated and accumulated in a certain place in the stirring chamber. When the stirring blade 11 rotates, the catalyst and the stirring blade 11 are not in sufficient contact, and the stirring time needs to be extended to ensure that the catalyst is mixed with the remaining materials, thereby reducing the production efficiency. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, when the present embodiment is used, a certain amount of acetic acid and ethyl ester are added to the feed hoppers 2 on both sides respectively, and the valve 4 is closed, and then the solid granular catalyst is added to the discharge barrel 6, and then the motor 6 32 is used to drive the barrel cover 5 to rotate to cover the upper end of the discharge barrel 6, and then the motor 2 16 is started to drive the gear 1 14 to rotate, so that the gear ring 33 and the discharge barrel 6 can be continuously rotated, and the catalyst can be thrown out to the inner cavity of the reactor 1 through the through hole 7 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, and the situation that the stirring blade 11 is not in sufficient contact with the catalyst due to the accumulation of the catalyst in a certain place in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, which affects the stirring effect; Since some catalyst particles may be too large or irregular in shape, the through hole 7 may be blocked during the throwing-out process, which not only reduces the amount of catalyst added, but also affects the passage of subsequent catalysts. Moreover, even if the through hole 7 is not completely blocked, if catalyst particles adhere to the wall of the through hole 7, it will also affect the amount of catalyst added and increase the probability of subsequent blockage. Therefore, when the above situation occurs, the barrel cover 5 can be driven to open, and then the electric push rod 13 can be used to drive the lifting plate 9 to descend, so that the rotating frame 17 extends into the discharge barrel 6, and the motor 1 8 can be used to drive the lifting plate 9 to rotate, so that the push rod 27 is aligned with multiple groups of through holes 7 in turn. When the push rod 27 is aligned with the through hole 7, the motor 3 18 drives the gear 2 19 to rotate counterclockwise. , the gear 2 19 drives the rack 20 to move, at this time, the spring 22 is in a compressed state, and when the tooth block on the gear 2 19 is away from the rack 20, the spring 22 is reset, so that the slide bar 21 moves horizontally, so that the push rod 27 can pass through the through hole 7 to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole 7 and adheres to the hole wall of the through hole 7, so that it falls into the reactor 1, to prevent the through hole 7 from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect, and because the spring 22 provides an elastic force for the push rod 27 when it is reset, when the push rod 27 uses this elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity, and will move more violently, which can intensify the dispersion of the catalyst particles, further improve the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, and is beneficial to the subsequent reaction; Furthermore, during the movement of the push rod 27, the motor 28 can be used to drive the worm 26 on the upper and lower sides to rotate, so that the worm wheel 29, the rotating shaft 24, and the blade 25 rotate simultaneously. When the blade 25 rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be crushed at the moment when the push rod 27 contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. Moreover, since the blade 25 fits the surface of the push rod 27, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod 27 to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod 27. When the push rod 27 is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel 6 again. When the catalyst particles at all the through holes 7 are added to the reactor 1, the motor 5 31 can be started to drive the stirring shaft 10 and the stirring blade 11 to rotate, so as to stir the ethanol, acetic acid and the catalyst for reaction, and finally, the generated ethyl acetate can be discharged through the discharge pipe 30; Therefore, by utilizing the anti-blocking ejection mechanism, after the solid granular catalyst is added to the discharge barrel 6, the catalyst can be thrown out into the inner cavity of the reactor 1 through the through hole 7 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, thereby avoiding the situation that the stirring blade 11 is not in sufficient contact with the catalyst due to the accumulation of the catalyst in a certain place in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, thereby affecting the stirring effect. Moreover, when the through hole 7 is blocked by the catalyst, the push rod 27 can be aligned with multiple groups of through holes 7 in turn, and the push rod 27 can pass through the through hole 7 to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole 7 and adheres to the hole wall of the through hole 7, so that it falls into the reactor 1, thereby preventing the through hole 7 from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect and increasing the amount of catalyst added. Moreover, when the push rod 27 uses elastic force to push the catalyst particles When the push rod 27 moves, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity and will move more violently, thereby intensifying the dispersion of the catalyst particles and further improving the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, which is beneficial to the subsequent reaction. In addition, during the movement of the push rod 27, the motor 28 can be used to drive the worm 26 on the upper and lower sides to rotate, so that the worm gear 29, the rotating shaft 24, and the blade 25 can rotate at the same time. When the blade 25 rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be broken at the moment when the push rod 27 contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. In addition, since the blade 25 is in contact with the surface of the push rod 27, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod 27 to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod 27. When the push rod 27 is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the inside of the discharge barrel 6 again.
[0025] In this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a solar cell panel 15 is provided on the front side of the upper end of the reactor 1; Specifically, by setting up the solar panel 15, when the device is used outdoors, the solar panel 15 can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy, providing part or all of the required electricity for the device, thereby reducing the device's dependence on grid power, achieving energy self-sufficiency, and being more energy-saving.
[0026] An energy-saving ethyl acetate production method comprises the following specific steps: S1. Add a certain amount of acetic acid and ethyl ester into the feed hopper 2, close the valve 4, add the solid granular catalyst into the lower barrel 6, and then seal the upper end of the lower barrel 6 with the barrel cover 5. Then, drive the lower barrel 6 to rotate continuously, and under the action of centrifugal force, throw the catalyst through the through hole 7 into the inner cavity of the reactor 1, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor 1; S2, drive the cylinder cover 5 to open, so that the rotating frame 17 extends into the discharge cylinder 6, and the lifting plate 9 rotates, so that the push rod 27 is aligned with the multiple groups of through holes 7 in turn. After the push rod 27 is aligned with the through hole 7, the push rod 27 is driven to pass through the through hole 7 to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole 7 and adheres to the hole wall of the through hole 7, so that it falls into the reactor 1 to prevent the through hole 7 from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect. In addition, since the spring 22 provides an elastic force for the push rod 27 when it is reset, when the push rod 27 uses this elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity, and will move more violently, which can intensify the dispersion of the catalyst particles, further improve the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, and is beneficial to the subsequent reaction; S3. During the movement of the push rod 27, the worm gear 29, the rotating shaft 24 and the blade 25 are driven to rotate simultaneously. When the blade 25 rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be crushed at the moment when the push rod 27 contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. In addition, since the blade 25 fits the surface of the push rod 27, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod 27 to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod 27. When the push rod 27 is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel 6 again. S4. After the catalyst particles at all the through holes 7 are added into the reactor 1, the stirring shaft 10 and the stirring blades 11 are driven to rotate to stir the ethanol, acetic acid and the catalyst for reaction. Finally, the generated ethyl acetate is discharged through the discharge pipe 30.
[0027] Working principle: add a certain amount of acetic acid and ethyl ester to the feed hoppers 2 on both sides respectively, and close the valve 4, then add the solid granular catalyst into the discharge barrel 6, and then use the motor 6 32 to drive the barrel cover 5 to rotate to seal the upper end of the discharge barrel 6, then start the motor 2 16 to drive the gear 1 14 to rotate, so that the ring gear 33 and the discharge barrel 6 can continue to rotate, and under the action of centrifugal force, the catalyst can be thrown out to the inner cavity of the reactor 1 through the through hole 7, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, which can avoid the situation that the stirring blade 11 is not in sufficient contact with the catalyst due to the accumulation of the catalyst in a certain place in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, thereby affecting the stirring effect; since some catalyst particles may be too large or irregular in shape, they will appear during the throwing out process. The situation of blocking the through hole 7 not only reduces the amount of catalyst added, but also affects the passage of subsequent catalysts, and even if the through hole 7 is not completely blocked, if catalyst particles adhere to the wall of the through hole 7, it will also affect the amount of catalyst added, and also increase the probability of subsequent blockage. Therefore, when the above situation occurs, the barrel cover 5 can be driven to open, and then the electric push rod 13 can be used to drive the lifting plate 9 to descend, so that the rotating frame 17 extends into the discharge barrel 6, and the motor 1 8 can be used to drive the lifting plate 9 to rotate, so that the push rod 27 is aligned with multiple groups of through holes 7 in turn. After the push rod 27 is aligned with the through hole 7, the motor 3 18 drives the gear 2 19 to rotate counterclockwise, and the gear 2 19 drives the rack 20 to move. At this time, the spring 22 is in a compressed state. When the gear 2 19 After the tooth block on the gear moves away from the rack 20, the spring 22 is reset to make the slide bar 21 move horizontally, so that the push rod 27 can pass through the through hole 7 to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole 7 and adheres to the wall of the through hole 7, so that it falls into the reactor 1 to prevent the through hole 7 from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect. In addition, since the spring 22 provides an elastic force for the push rod 27 when it is reset, when the push rod 27 uses this elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity and move more violently, which can intensify the dispersion of the catalyst particles and further improve the dispersion degree of the catalyst particles, which is beneficial to the subsequent reaction. In addition, during the movement of the push rod 27, the motor 28 can be used to drive the worm 26 on the upper and lower sides to rotate. The worm gear 29, the rotating shaft 24, and the blade 25 are rotated at the same time. When the blade 25 rotates, the large particles of the catalyst can be broken at the moment when the push rod 27 contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. In addition, since the blade 25 is in contact with the surface of the push rod 27, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod 27 to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod 27. When the push rod 27 is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel 6 again. When the catalyst particles at all the through holes 7 are added to the reactor 1, the motor 5 31 can be started to drive the stirring shaft 10 and the stirring blade 11 to rotate, so as to stir the ethanol, acetic acid, and the catalyst. Finally, the generated ethyl acetate can be discharged through the discharge pipe 30.Therefore, by utilizing the anti-blocking ejection mechanism, after the solid granular catalyst is added to the discharge barrel 6, the catalyst can be thrown out into the inner cavity of the reactor 1 through the through hole 7 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, thereby avoiding the situation that the stirring blade 11 is not in sufficient contact with the catalyst due to the catalyst being concentrated in a certain place in the inner cavity of the reactor 1, thereby affecting the stirring effect. In addition, when the through hole 7 is blocked by the catalyst, the push rod 27 can be aligned with multiple groups of through holes 7 in turn, and the push rod 27 can pass through the through hole 7 to push the catalyst that blocks the through hole 7 and adheres to the hole wall of the through hole 7, so that it falls into the reactor 1, thereby preventing the through hole 7 from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect and increasing the amount of catalyst added. In addition, when the push rod 27 uses elastic force to push the catalyst particles, the catalyst particles will obtain a higher initial velocity, and will move more violently, thereby intensifying the dispersion of the catalyst particles. The dispersion of catalyst particles is improved, which is beneficial to the subsequent reaction. In addition, during the movement of the push rod 27, the motor 28 can be used to drive the worm 26 on the upper and lower sides to rotate, so that the worm wheel 29, the rotating shaft 24, and the blade 25 rotate simultaneously. When the blade 25 rotates, the large particles of catalyst can be broken at the moment when the push rod 27 contacts the catalyst particles, making it easier to react. In addition, since the blade 25 fits the surface of the push rod 27, it also has a scraping effect on the surface of the push rod 27 to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod 27. When the push rod 27 is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel 6 again. By setting the solar panel 15, when the device is used outdoors, the solar panel 15 can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy to provide part or all of the required electricity for the device, thereby reducing the device's dependence on power grid electricity, achieving energy self-sufficiency, and being more energy-saving. ;

An energy-saving method for producing ethyl acetate, characterized in that: The production device according to any one of claims 1 to 9 is used for production, comprising the following specific steps: S1. Add a certain amount of acetic acid and ethyl ester into the feed hopper (2) respectively, close the valve (4), then add the solid granular catalyst into the discharge barrel (6), and then use the barrel cover (5) to seal the upper end of the discharge barrel (6). Then, drive the discharge barrel (6) to rotate continuously, so that the catalyst can be thrown out into the inner cavity of the reactor (1) through the through hole (7) under the action of centrifugal force, so that the catalyst is evenly distributed in the inner cavity of the reactor (1); S2, driving the barrel cover (5) to open, so that the rotating frame (17) extends into the discharge barrel (6), and the lifting plate (9) rotates, so that the push rod (27) is aligned with the plurality of through holes (7) in turn. After the push rod (27) is aligned with the through holes (7), the push rod (27) is driven to pass through the through holes (7) to push the catalyst that blocks the through holes (7) and adheres to the hole walls of the through holes (7) so that the catalyst falls into the reactor (1) to prevent the through holes (7) from being blocked, thereby ensuring the subsequent throwing-out effect.

In addition, since the blade (25) is in contact with the surface of the push rod (27), the surface of the push rod (27) is also scraped to prevent the catalyst particles from adhering to the end of the push rod (27). When the push rod (27) is reset, the catalyst particles fall into the lower barrel (6) again. S4. After all the catalyst particles at the through holes (7) are added to the reactor (1), the stirring shaft (10) and the stirring blades (11) are driven to rotate to stir the ethanol, acetic acid and the catalyst for reaction.
