[0033] A continuous and efficient synthesis method of diol ketal or acetal comprises the following steps:
[0034] Preheat and mix the raw materials evenly;
[0035] The raw materials are fed into a condensation tower 1 filled with a catalyst for condensation reaction to obtain a product, and the product flows out of the condensation tower 1 in liquid form;
[0036] When preheating the raw materials, the raw materials are preheated to 100-150° C., so that the raw materials have a relatively high temperature before being sent to the condensation tower 1, ensuring that the raw materials can fully and efficiently undergo condensation reaction to obtain products.
[0037] In a specific embodiment, the raw materials can be heated to 100°C. In another specific embodiment, the raw materials can also be heated to 150°C. In other specific embodiments, the order of preheating and mixing can also be adaptively adjusted, that is, mixing can be performed first, then preheating, or mixing and preheating can be performed at the same time to ensure that the raw materials can fully undergo condensation reaction.
[0038] Furthermore, the raw materials include diols, ketones or aldehydes, wherein the ketones or aldehydes are both configured as long carbon chain structures with or without branches.
[0039] The molar ratio of ketone or aldehyde to diol is set to 1:1.5-3 to ensure that the content of diol is slightly higher than that of ketone or aldehyde, so that ketone or aldehyde can be fully converted into diol ketal or acetal in a single pass, and the obtained product mainly includes diol ketal or acetal, water, and remaining diol.
[0040] In a specific embodiment, the molar ratio of ketone or aldehyde to diol is set to 1:1.5. In another specific embodiment, the content of diol can be further increased to set the molar ratio of ketone or aldehyde to diol to 1:2 or 1:3.
[0041] Furthermore, the catalyst can be specifically set according to actual conditions, and it is at least set to any one of A-15 resin or 732 resin. In a specific embodiment, the catalyst is set to A-15 resin, and in another specific embodiment, the catalyst is set to 732 resin, and both catalysts can promote the condensation reaction.
[0042] Furthermore, in a specific embodiment, the raw materials are set to ketones and diols, wherein the ketone is set to a long carbon chain structure (which may or may not contain branches), specifically set to at least one of C10 to C18 ketones, and the ketone and the diol undergo a condensation reaction with the assistance of a catalyst to obtain ketal and water.
[0043] In another specific embodiment, the raw materials are set to aldehyde and diol, wherein the aldehyde is set to a long carbon chain structure (which may or may not contain branches), specifically set to at least one of C10 to C18 aldehydes, and the aldehyde and the diol undergo a condensation reaction with the assistance of a catalyst to obtain acetal and water.
[0044] Among them, the diol is set to an ortho- or meta-diol, and the diol includes at least any one of 1,2-ethylene glycol, 1,3-propylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, 1,2-butylene glycol, 2,3-butylene glycol, and 1,3-butylene glycol. In a specific embodiment, the diol is set to 1,2-propylene glycol or ethylene glycol.
[0045] Separating the product into oil and water to form an oil phase and an aqueous phase, wherein the oil phase comprises diol ketal or acetal, and the aqueous phase comprises water and diol;
[0046] The oil phase is split, part of the oil phase is refluxed into the condensation tower 1, and part of the oil phase is extracted as a product. The reflux and extraction ratio of the oil phase is set to 1:1-10. By refluxing part of the oil phase, the purity of the product is ensured. In a specific embodiment, the reflux and extraction ratio of the oil phase can be set to 1:1-3, specifically 1:3.
[0047] Furthermore, before the water phase is introduced into the next unit for distillation, the water phase is preheated. The preheating allows the water phase to have a higher initial temperature so that the distillation separation of the water phase is faster.
[0048] Further, the water phase is separated by distillation to obtain glycol and water, the glycol is fed back into the condensation tower 1, and the water is discharged from the system.
[0049] The distillation separation of the water phase is carried out in the distillation tower 3. Specifically, the distillation tower 3 includes a distillation section and a stripping section. The distillation section is provided with 8 to 10 plates, and the stripping section is provided with 3 to 5 plates. After the sequential action of the distillation section and the stripping section, the lighter component (water) exits the distillation tower 3 in the form of steam, while the heavier component (glycol) is collected at the bottom of the distillation tower 3.
[0050] The distillation separation of the aqueous phase to obtain glycol and water comprises the following steps:
[0051] The water phase is sent to a distillation tower 3 for distillation to obtain a first separated product and water;
[0052] Part of the first separated product is produced, and part of it is refluxed into the distillation tower 3, and the reflux and production ratio of the first separated product is set to 1-2:1.
[0053] In a specific embodiment, the reflux and withdrawal ratio of the first separation is set to 1:1. In another specific embodiment, the proportion of the first separation refluxed to the distillation tower 3 can be further increased, so that the reflux and withdrawal ratio of the first separation is set to 2:1. The first separation mainly includes glycols and water. By continuously removing water from the first separation, the proportion of glycols in the first separation is continuously increased.

[0055] It should be noted that during the distillation process, the diol in the distillation tower 3 has reached a relatively high temperature, and the recovered diol does not need to be preheated, but can be directly mixed with the preheated ketone or alcohol and then sent to the condensation tower 1. The recovered diol can also be preheated again to compensate for the heat loss during the process of being sent to the condensation tower 1.
[0056] In addition, during the distillation separation of the water phase, the water vapor is condensed by the heat exchanger 41 and stored in the form of liquid water to facilitate further processing and discharge.
[0057] Furthermore, distillation separation of water phase and condensation of water vapor are carried out in a vacuum environment, wherein the vacuum degree is set to -0.09 to -0.08 to ensure that the distillation process can be carried out more stably and efficiently. In a specific embodiment, the vacuum degree is set to -0.09.
[0058] The raw materials are preheated and fully mixed before being sent to the condensation tower 1. The liquid product formed after the condensation reaction is further sent to the oil-water separator 2. After the action of the oil-water separator 2, an oil phase (located at the upper layer) and a water phase (located at the lower layer) are formed. Part of the produced oil phase is produced as a product, and the water phase is preheated and sent to the distillation tower 3 for distillation to complete the dehydration of the diol. The water flows out of the distillation tower 3 in the form of steam and is collected in the form of liquid water after heat exchange. The dehydrated diol is used as a raw material and is re-added to the condensation tower 1 to undergo a condensation reaction with the alcohol or ketone.
[0059] The whole process does not require the addition of an azeotropic agent (i.e., a water-carrying agent), does not introduce impurities from other materials, has a high conversion rate of diol ketal or acetal, has a simple process, and is applied to the reaction of diol ketal or acetal, and has good industrial value.
