Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a safety device for preparing hexafluoropropylene, in particular to a system for continuous safe production in preparing hexafluoropropylene. Background Art

[0002] Hexafluoropropene (HFP), with the molecular formula CF3CFCF2, is one of the basic raw materials of organic fluorine industry, second only to tetrafluoroethylene in importance. It is a comonomer of many fluorine-containing copolymers and an intermediate of many fluorine-containing compounds. There are many ways to prepare hexafluoropropene, and the industrial production of hexafluoropropene is widely adopted by the thermal cracking route of tetrafluoroethylene, which has the advantages of simple process and high product purity. At present, hexafluoropropylene is commonly produced by thermal cracking of tetrafluoroethylene. The production process is as follows: tetrafluoroethylene and octafluorocyclobutane (a by-product of tetrafluoroethylene cracking) are preheated in a certain ratio and then enter a tubular reactor for cracking and conversion into cracked gas. After the cracked gas is rapidly cooled, filtered, washed with alkali, washed with water, and dehydrated with silica gel, the cracked gas containing trace amounts of water enters the distillation system for purification. However, this reaction system is a simple extensive filtration system, which is insufficient to filter small-diameter particles. Over time, the accumulation is serious and the production system is blocked, resulting in a high system pressure difference, which makes it impossible to operate and must be stopped for cleaning, affecting the operating rate of the device. At the same time, it also brings certain safety risks. Combined with the toxic and harmful characteristics of the hexafluoropropylene production process, it not only affects the production time, but also has certain safety risks when inspecting and cleaning the equipment.

[0009] Furthermore, the filter membrane is a polytetrafluoroethylene membrane or a polyvinylidene fluoride membrane.

[0011] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: after adopting the above technical scheme, the present invention performs buffering and decompression of gas through a cracked gas collection buffer tank, and then performs filtering treatment on hexafluoropropylene through a precision membrane filter, and continuously performs purging treatment on high-boiling substances and particulate matter through a directional pulse backflush system, which can not only avoid the blockage of the distillation tower caused by the blockage of the filler by the particulate matter and the high-boiling substances, but also eliminate the need to stop the production process to clean the particulate matter and the high-boiling substances, reduce or even eliminate the frequency of contact with toxic and harmful substances, and ensure the safe and continuous normal operation of the preparation of hexafluoropropylene. The present invention combines gas buffering, precision membrane filters, and directional pulse backflush systems. The pulse backflush system and its supporting collection system stabilize the intake pressure through the cracking gas collection buffer tank, improve the efficiency of impurity cleaning through precise filtration, timed, constant pressure and quantitative system backflush and collection system, monitor the operating status of the system through pressure sensors and temperature sensors, and improve the buffer tank pressure in time, further improving the safety of continuous operation.
