Description

Technical Field

[0002] Diacetone alcohol is a colorless, transparent liquid organic compound, usually prepared by the aldol condensation reaction of acetone. Since water is produced as a by-product when diacetone alcohol is produced, in order to efficiently separate the products and improve the reaction efficiency, continuous reaction distillation equipment and a combination of reaction and distillation are used to achieve efficient and continuous production of diacetone alcohol while reducing energy consumption and operating costs.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent with publication number CN118179072A includes a catalytic distillation tower, a condenser and a built-in reboiler.

The outlet end of the condenser is connected to the side inlet of the top of the catalytic distillation tower. The built-in reboiler is arranged at the bottom of the catalytic distillation tower, and a tower kettle outlet is arranged at the bottom of the catalytic distillation tower. This scheme not only significantly improves the reaction conversion rate (>99.9%), but also achieves a reaction selectivity of 100%, avoids the generation of by-products and the decomposition of diacetone alcohol, reduces the reaction energy consumption, and does not require subsequent separation of the product and separation and recovery of the catalyst.

[0004] However, in the above scheme, in the process of arranging a condenser at the top of the tower to condense and reflux the vaporized light component propanol, the extraction of water is not considered, so that the by-product water is completely refluxed into the tower, which may interfere with the reaction process, resulting in incomplete reaction of the propanol raw material, thereby reducing the yield of diacetone alcohol in the scheme; on the other hand, in the process of fractionating the mixture of diacetone alcohol and water by the built-in reboiler in the above scheme, due to the incomplete vaporization of water and the condensation and reflux of water vapor after rising, it is difficult to achieve effective separation of diacetone alcohol and water, thereby making it difficult for the diacetone alcohol in the scheme to achieve the expected product purity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] 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. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] For example, see Figures 1 to 9The present invention provides a technical solution: a continuous reaction and distillation equipment for synthesizing diacetone alcohol, comprising a distillation tower 1, an opening and closing mechanism, a condensing mechanism and a rotating mechanism, characterized in that: a feed pipe 11 is connected to one side of the distillation tower 1, and a reaction section three 14, a reaction section two 13, a reaction section one 12, a stripping section 15 and a reboiler 16 are sequentially arranged inside the distillation tower 1 from top to bottom, the reaction section one 12, the reaction section two 13 and the reaction section three 14 are sequentially fixedly connected and are connected to the inner wall of the distillation tower 1 in a limited rotation manner, the feed pipe 11 is unidirectionally connected to the reaction section one 12, the stripping section 15 and the reboiler 16 are fixedly connected and are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the distillation tower 1, and a withdrawal pipe 17 is passed through the bottom end of the distillation tower 1 and the reboiler 16 is unidirectionally connected to the withdrawal pipe 17; The opening and closing mechanism is arranged at the top of the distillation tower 1, and the opening and closing mechanism includes a flow guide 2 fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the upper surface of the reaction section three 14 and a pressure sensor 21 fixedly connected to the center of the upper surface of the reaction section three 14; The rotating mechanism realizes uniform distribution of the liquid phase in the reaction section and sufficient mixing of the liquid phase in the bottom of the tower, and comprises a fixed ring 4 penetrating and fixedly connected to the center of the stripping section 15; The absolute operating pressure of the distillation tower 1 is 20-25 kPa, the tower top temperature is 60-65°C, the tower bottom temperature is 90-100°C, and the space velocity of the distillation tower 1 is: ; The reaction section one 12, the reaction section two 13 and the reaction section three 14 are combined into a reaction section, the temperature of the reaction section is 70-80°C, the reaction section is filled with catalytic fillers and the catalyst in the catalytic fillers is a hydroxide-type macroporous alkaline resin, the reaction section one 12 is filled with 828 resin, and the reaction section two 13 and the reaction section three 14 are filled with D296 resin.

[0017] In this scheme, propanol enters the middle section of the distillation tower 1 through the feed pipe 11, and after entering the reaction section 12, it is vaporized under the heating action of the reboiler 16 and starts to react under the action of the catalyst, wherein the high catalytic activity of 828 resin is utilized in the reaction section 12 to quickly initiate the condensation reaction of propanol, the high selectivity of D296 resin is utilized in the reaction section 2 13 to promote the further conversion of the intermediate product into diacetone alcohol, and the deep reaction is further completed in the reaction section 3 14 to ensure that the reactants are fully converted.

[0018] It should be noted that the total height of the reaction section is 4 to 6 meters, of which the height of reaction section one 12 is 1.5 to 2.5 meters, accounting for 30% to 40% of the total height of the reaction section; the height of reaction section two 13 is 1.5 to 2.5 meters, accounting for 30% to 40% of the total height of the reaction section; the height of reaction section three 14 is 1 to 2 meters, accounting for 20% to 30% of the total height of the reaction section.

[0019] During this process, the gas phase pressure near the top of the distillation tower 1 is monitored in real time through the opening and closing mechanism, and the connection state between the distillation tower 1 and the condensing mechanism is controlled by setting the pressure threshold. When the gas phase pressure at the top of the distillation tower 1 exceeds the threshold, the opening and closing mechanism automatically opens to release excess gas phase and reduce the pressure in the tower; when the gas phase pressure at the top of the distillation tower 1 does not reach the threshold, the opening and closing mechanism remains closed to increase the gas phase residence time and improve the reaction efficiency; that is, the opening and closing mechanism prolongs the residence time of propanol in the reaction section by adjusting the gas phase flow, ensuring its full reaction to improve the conversion rate of the scheme.

[0020] It should be noted that, since the absolute operating pressure of the distillation tower 1 is 20-25 kPa, the tower top temperature is 60-65°C, and the temperature of the reaction section is 70-80°C. Under the low pressure environment of 20-25 kPa, the boiling point of water is 60-65°C, the boiling point of propanol is 40-45°C, and the boiling point of diacetone alcohol is 100-105°C, that is, the gas phase composition at the tower top is a mixture of water vapor and vaporized propanol, and diacetone alcohol flows downward in a liquid state and is finally extracted from the tower bottom.

[0021] The gaseous mixture at the top of the tower further enters the condensing mechanism through the opening and closing mechanism, and is separated from the propanol by segmented condensation in the condensing mechanism, wherein the water is discharged, and the propanol flows back into the reaction section 12 in a liquid state to react again, thereby fully ensuring the conversion rate of the scheme, reducing the interference of the by-product water on the reaction process and improving the product purity of diacetone alcohol.

[0022] On the other hand, the reaction section is slowly rotated by a rotating mechanism, and the slow rotation rate of the reaction section is synchronized with the rotation speed of the top of the rotating mechanism to be 1 to 5 rpm. Along with the slow rotation of the reaction section, the positions of the liquid propanol in the feed pipe 11 and the reflux pipe 34 change synchronously when entering the reaction section 12, thereby preventing the liquid propanol from accumulating on one side of the reaction section 12 during the period of time after entering the reaction section 12 but not yet vaporized. By ensuring uniform distribution of the liquid phase in the reaction section 12, local excessive concentration or incomplete reaction can be avoided, thereby improving the reaction efficiency of the scheme.

[0023] During the reaction, the liquid phase diacetone alcohol will entrain part of propanol and water when falling, and the propanol in the liquid phase will be vaporized and separated by heating in the distillation section 15, and then the water will be further evaporated and separated in the reboiler 16 to obtain high-purity diacetone alcohol; in this process, the rotating mechanism synchronously rotates and stirs the liquid phase in the reboiler 16, and the stirring accelerates the flow of the liquid phase, accelerates the evaporation of water to promote the separation of diacetone alcohol and water, reduces the residence time of diacetone alcohol in the high temperature area, and reduces the decomposition risk; at the same time, stirring can evenly distribute the heat in the reboiler 16, avoid local overheating and cause side reactions, and thus improve the purity of the product.

[0024] In the traditional reactive distillation process, the conversion rate of propanol is usually 90-95%, the purity of diacetone alcohol is about 95-98%, and there are many by-products. This scheme can effectively improve the conversion rate of propanol and the purity of diacetone alcohol through the reflux design of segmented condensation, the coaxial reverse stirring of the rotating mechanism, and the gas phase retention setting of the opening and closing mechanism, combined with segmented catalysis and low-pressure environment operation. The optimized propanol conversion rate can reach more than 99%, the purity of diacetone alcohol can reach more than 99%, and the by-products are reduced by more than 95%, and the energy consumption is reduced by 20-30%.

[0025] In the second embodiment, the opening and closing mechanism further comprises a sealing plate 22 arranged at the top of the flow guide 2, and the sealing plate 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the distillation tower 1. The upper surface of the sealing plate 22 is limitedly penetrated by four positioning shafts 25 which are arranged around at equal intervals. The tops of the four positioning shafts 25 are penetrated by the same sealing plate 23, and the sealing plate 23 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the distillation tower 1. The middle sections of the four positioning shafts 25 are fixedly connected to opening and closing arms 26, and the four opening and closing arms 26 are spliced ​​with each other. The outer contour of the opening and closing arm 26 is meshingly connected to a gear ring 24 located between the sealing plate 22 and the sealing plate 23. The outer contour of the gear ring 24 is meshingly connected to a driving wheel 27 located outside the distillation tower 1. A protection frame 28 is provided on the outer contour of the driving wheel 27 and the protection frame 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the distillation tower 1. An adjustment shaft 29 is fixedly connected to the center of the driving wheel 27 and the adjustment shaft 29 passes through the protection frame 28 and extends upward.

[0026] The centers of the sealing plates 1 22 and 23 are both provided with gas phase holes adapted to the top contour of the air deflector 2 . The adjustment shaft 29 is driven by an external motor, and the external motor is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 21 via a signal.

[0027] It can be seen from Example 1 that the opening and closing mechanism prolongs the residence time of propanol in the reaction section by adjusting the gas phase flow. The alarm threshold is pre-set for the pressure sensor 21 before the device starts working. During the reaction process, the gas phase entering the guide cover 2 through the reaction section gradually increases, and the opening and closing mechanism is in a closed state at this time, resulting in the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 21 gradually increasing. When the pressure value exceeds the alarm threshold, the pressure sensor 21 sends a signal to the external motor of the adjusting shaft 29 and controls the adjusting shaft 29 to rotate. The adjusting shaft 29 further drives the driving wheel 27 and the ring gear 24 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the ring gear 24 further causes the opening and closing arm 26 to deflect with the positioning shaft 25 as the axis, and the movement of the four opening and closing arms 26 is synchronized. At this time, the spliced ​​state of the four opening and closing arms 26 is in contact, and gaps appear between the four opening and closing arms 26, thereby removing the obstruction of the gas phase holes of the sealing plate 1 22 and the sealing plate 2 23. At this time, the mixture of vaporized propanol and water vapor gathered at the guide cover 2 enters the condensation mechanism through the gas phase hole, and the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 21 begins to decrease.

[0028] When the pressure value drops below the alarm threshold, the pressure sensor 21 sends a closing signal to the adjusting shaft 29, and the adjusting shaft 29 reverses to drive the driving wheel 27 and the ring gear 24 to reverse synchronously. At this time, the opening and closing arms 26 begin to reset with the positioning shaft 25 as the axis, and the four opening and closing arms 26 are reassembled and the blocking and sealing operation of the gas phase holes of the sealing plate 1 22 and the sealing plate 2 23 is completed. In the closed state, the mixture of vaporized propanol and water vapor stays in the reaction section three 14 and fully reacts under the action of the catalyst in the reaction section three 14, thereby effectively improving the conversion rate of the scheme.

[0029] On the other hand, the size of the opening and closing gaps between the four opening and closing arms 26 directly determines the flow rate of the gas phase from the distillation tower 1 into the condensation mechanism. By placing the adjustment shaft 29 and the drive wheel 27 outside the distillation tower 1, it is convenient for personnel to manually calibrate the gas phase flow rate.

[0030] In the third embodiment, the condensation mechanism comprises a condensation group 3 arranged on one side of the outside of the distillation tower 1, wherein a condenser 1 32 and a condenser 2 33 are arranged inside the condensation group 3, and the condenser 1 32 is unidirectionally connected to the condenser 2 33, a gas phase pipe 31 is unidirectionally connected from the top of the distillation tower 1 to the condenser 1 32, and a reflux pipe 34 that runs through the side of the distillation tower 1 is unidirectionally connected from the condenser 2 33 to the reaction section 1 12; The temperature of the condenser 1 32 is set to 50-55°C, and the temperature of the condenser 2 33 is set to 0-10°C.

[0031] It can be seen from Example 1 and Example 2 that the gas phase entering the condensing mechanism is a mixture of vaporized propanol and water vapor. At this time, the gas phase enters the condenser 32 through the gas phase pipe 31. Since the condensing mechanism is in a connected state with the distillation tower 1, that is, the condensing mechanism is also in a low-pressure environment of 20 to 25 kPa, the temperature of the condenser 32 is 50 to 55°C at this time, which can effectively condense the water vapor while keeping the propanol in a vaporized state, thereby realizing the separation of propanol and water. After separation, the liquid water is discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe 35, and the vaporized propanol enters the condenser 33 and is condensed into a liquid phase and refluxes into the reaction section 12 along the reflux pipe 34 to start the reaction again.

[0032] It should be noted that corresponding control valves are provided on the feed pipe 11, the discharge pipe 35 and the extraction pipe 17 to maintain a low pressure environment of 20-25 kPa inside the distillation tower 1 and the condensation mechanism.

[0033] In the fourth embodiment, the rotating mechanism further comprises a cross shaft 41 fixedly connected to the inner contour of the fixing ring 4, the top end of the cross shaft 41 penetrates and is rotatably connected to a bevel gear 1 42, and the bevel gear 1 42 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the reaction section 12, both sides of the cross shaft 41 penetrate and are rotatably connected to a bevel gear 2 43 with opposite directions, the bottom end of the cross shaft 41 penetrates and is rotatably connected to a bevel gear 3 44, the bottom end of the bevel gear 3 44 is fixedly connected to a differential 45, and the differential 45 is rotatably connected to the center of the distillation section 15, the bottom end of the differential 45 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 46, and the outer contour of the rotating shaft 46 is provided with paddles 47.

[0034] The two bevel gears 2 43 are meshed and connected with bevel gear 1 42 and bevel gear 3 44. The rotating shaft 46 and the paddle 47 are located inside the reboiler 16. The bevel gear 1 42 is driven by a built-in low-speed motor. The rotation speed of the bevel gear 1 42 is 1 to 5 rpm. The amplification ratio of the differential 45 is 1 to 50, and the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 46 is 50 to 250 rpm.

[0035] As can be seen from the first embodiment, the rotating mechanism drives the reaction section to rotate slowly while completing the stirring of the liquid phase in the reboiler 16. The reaction section 12 rotates slowly to ensure that the liquid propanol that has not yet been vaporized is evenly distributed therein to improve the reaction efficiency and ensure that the propanol reacts fully. At the same time, the liquid phase in the reboiler 16 is stirred to accelerate the evaporation of water, reduce the residence time of diacetone alcohol in the high temperature area, and avoid its decomposition or the occurrence of side reactions.

[0036] When the device starts working, bevel gear 42 starts to rotate under the drive of its built-in low-speed motor. Since bevel gear 42 is fixedly connected to reaction section 12, reaction section 12, reaction section 2 13 and reaction section 3 14 are fixedly connected in sequence, that is, bevel gear 42 starts to drive the entire reaction section to rotate synchronously at a low speed. The rotation speed of the entire reaction section is synchronized to 1 to 5 rpm, which is dynamically adjusted within a set range according to the continuous input amount of propanol. The low-speed rotation of reaction section 12 causes the positions of liquid propanol in feed pipe 11 and reflux pipe 34 to change synchronously when entering reaction section 12, thereby avoiding excessive local concentration or incomplete reaction caused by uneven distribution of liquid phase in reaction section 12.

[0037] At the same time, the rotation of bevel gear one 42 drives bevel gear three 44 to rotate synchronously under the transmission action of bevel gear two 43, and the rotation direction of bevel gear three 44 is opposite to that of bevel gear one 42. The rotation of bevel gear three 44 further drives rotating shaft 46 to rotate synchronously through differential 45, and after amplification by differential 45, the speed ratio between bevel gear three 44 and rotating shaft 46 reaches 1:50, and rotating shaft 46 further drives paddle 47 to rotate. At this time, the speed of rotating shaft 46 and paddle 47 reaches 50-250rpm, and paddle 47 realizes sufficient stirring of the liquid phase in reboiler 16, and the separated high-purity diacetone alcohol is discharged through extraction pipe 17 for collection.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
