Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of organic chemical technology, in particular to a method for reducing the formaldehyde content in an olefin epoxidation reaction product and a device for olefin epoxidation reaction using cumene hydroperoxide. Background Art
[0002] The use of cumene hydroperoxide to epoxidize olefins to prepare the corresponding epoxides, typically the cumene hydroperoxide method to prepare propylene oxide, has been successfully applied in industry. This process has no by-products and has high reaction selectivity. Cumene hydroperoxide is relatively safe as an oxidant, and the separation and refining steps can also relatively easily obtain high-purity products.
[0003] However, in the operation practice of industrial equipment, it was found that some process pipelines in the refining unit often had blockage problems. Analysis showed that the blockage was polyoxymethylene. The cause could be further traced back to the formaldehyde impurity contained in the epoxidation reaction product. The content only accounted for 100 to 500 ppm of the entire product flow, but it would be enriched in certain areas in the separation and refining unit, thus forming a polymer.
[0004] There are many methods for removing formaldehyde in related fields, such as adsorption and absorption, but it is still a challenge to remove formaldehyde at low cost in industrial scenarios. Practitioners hope to treat it from the source and directly reduce the content of formaldehyde impurities in the epoxidation reaction products, while not causing a significant impact on the technical indicators of the epoxidation reaction, such as the conversion rate of isopropylbenzene hydroperoxide and the selectivity of propylene oxide.
