Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of chemical engineering technology, and particularly relates to a method for treating butyl-containing waste liquid. Background Art

[0002] In the process of preparing glufosinate using monobutyl methylphosphonate (MPE) as a raw material, when 2-amino-4-(methyl(butoxy)phosphoryl)butanenitrile is hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid, an equivalent amount of butyl organic waste liquid is generated. This waste liquid is a complex organic layer containing water, n-butyl acetate, n-butanol, and 1-chlorobutane. In addition to the binary azeotropes of organic substances and water, it is also very difficult to separate n-butyl acetate and n-butanol. Therefore, when the separation is difficult and the market demand for 1-chlorobutane is low, the disposal of this organic layer becomes a problem; from the perspective of environmental protection or economy, it is of great significance to convert and recover n-butanol from the above butyl-containing organic waste liquid.

[0003] The butyl-containing organic waste liquid generated in the process of glufosinate preparation has a complex composition and is difficult to separate. Resources such as n-butanol are difficult to recover. Currently, the treatment of the organic layer is basically direct combustion followed by alkali liquor absorption; for the conversion of chlorobutane to n-butanol, the conversion rate is low, and there are also by-products, and the separation difficulty is large; currently, the research on recovering n-butanol from butyl-containing waste liquid only focuses on the conversion of 1-chlorobutane to n-butanol or n-butanol derivatives; in the literature Kumpf, Walter; Martinetz, Dieter, Zeitschrift fur Chemie, 1984, vol. 24, 182-183, 1-chlorobutane is converted to n-butanol in the presence of tributylbenzylammonium chloride, with a yield of 80%, and at the same time, there is also 18% of n-butyraldehyde; in the literature Y. Liu et al., Catalysis Letters, 2017, vol.147, 2764-2771, using an ionic liquid as a catalyst and a usage amount of 30%, 1-chlorobutane is converted to n-butyl acetate, with a yield of 67%. In the literature Yu-Qing et al., Synthetic Communications, 2006, vol.36, 3353-3358, using PEG400 as a catalyst, 1-chlorobutane is converted to n-butyl acetate, with a yield of 89%; in the existing literature on the method of converting 1-chlorobutane to n-butanol or n-butyl acetate, the yield is low, by-products are often accompanied, and an additional separation process is required. Summary of the Invention

[0085] This application provides a method for treating butyl-containing waste liquid, which specifically includes the following steps: Pass the butyl-containing waste liquid through an alkaline resin fixed bed, heat and react to convert 1-chlorobutane into n-butanol to obtain a conversion liquid; Pass the conversion liquid into an alkali solution and heat and react to decompose n-butyl acetate into n-butanol to obtain a decomposition liquid. Add an extraction agent to the decomposition liquid for extraction to obtain an organic layer; Rectify the organic layer to obtain n-butanol and an extraction agent; In this technical solution, the pretreatment of the butyl-containing waste liquid does not require prior separation of 1-chlorobutane and other organic substances in the waste liquid, and the process is simple; n-butanol is consumed in the synthesis of MPE. This solution efficiently converts the chlorine-containing organic waste liquid in the preparation process of glufosinate-ammonium into utilizable n-butanol, thereby reducing the amount of waste liquid treatment and the consumption of n-butanol raw materials. The alkaline resin used can be reactivated and reused through alkali treatment, and the alkali used is also a common industrial alkali. The extraction agent can also be recycled, greatly reducing the process cost and being suitable for large-scale industrial applications; This method reacts under normal pressure and low temperature, with mild reaction conditions and energy savings; The waste liquid after the first step of treatment is sodium chloride waste liquid, which is the most common industrial wastewater and is simple and low-cost to treat. The waste water in the second step is by-product acetate (sodium acetate, potassium acetate or calcium acetate), which can be recycled or sold to extend the industrial chain value; Compared with the original waste liquid, the COD value in the waste water is greatly reduced, and the recovery of butyl-containing waste liquid greatly reduces the degree of environmental pollution; In summary, this method efficiently recovers n-butanol from the waste liquid and returns it to the front end as a raw material input. Moreover, the resin and extraction agent used in this method can be recycled; The treated waste liquid is simple and low-cost to treat. This application reduces the production cost of preparing glufosinate-ammonium, reduces environmental pollution, and has high industrial application value.
