Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic waste liquid recovery, and in particular to a method for recovering dimethyl sulfoxide from energetic organic waste liquid. Background Art

[0002] Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a highly polar aprotic solvent, plays an irreplaceable role in the preparation of energetic materials. Its strong solubility effectively disperses energetic material molecules while ensuring process safety. Because large amounts of DMSO are used in the preparation of energetic materials, the recycling and reuse of DMSO-containing organic wastewater is crucial to reduce production costs and address environmental concerns.

[0003] Vacuum distillation is an effective method for recycling and reusing DMSO wastewater, reducing production costs while also minimizing the discharge of three wastes. However, energetic organic wastewater, in addition to DMSO, also contains high concentrations of nitro compounds, some acidic energetic substances, and water, necessitating specialized treatment technologies for its recovery.

[0004] Currently, the recovery of DMSO-containing energetic organic wastewater primarily relies on a separation and purification process called "dehydration by vacuum distillation followed by rectification." This process is complex in terms of equipment and operation, and consumes significant amounts of energy. Furthermore, as DMSO evaporates during the recovery process, the nitro compounds in the wastewater concentrate at high temperatures and easily decompose to form toxic gases, increasing the safety risks of refined recovery.

[0061] (2) The filtrate was transferred to a clean brown reagent bottle, and 15 g of styrene-divinylphenyl copolymer macroporous adsorption resin was added at 15% (w / v). The mixture was stirred at 60°C and 200 rpm for 3 h to remove nitrobenzene substances in the organic waste liquid. The solution was vacuum filtered to obtain a stabilized solution, which was stored in the dark for later use.

[0062] (3) After stabilization with molecular sieves and macroporous adsorption resins, the nitro compounds were effectively removed, the solution became clear, the chromaticity decreased to 1000, the pH value increased to 8, the water content decreased to 0.08%, and the purity of DMSO increased to 97%, which can be directly reused in the production process of energetic materials.

[0063] The obtained stabilization solution was subjected to vacuum distillation at a distillation pressure of -0.1 MPa, a distillation temperature of 90-100° C., and a reflux ratio of 8:1 to obtain a dimethyl sulfoxide fraction after distillation.
