A method for preparing and using an MTO device waste caustic oil-water separation agent

By using an oil-water separator composed of benzaldehyde and quinoxaline compounds in the MTO unit, the interfacial film in the waste alkali liquid is destroyed, achieving oil-water separation. This solves the problem of grease emulsification in the waste alkali liquid, ensures stable operation of the unit, and reduces the risk of equipment blockage.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The butter emulsion in the waste alkaline solution of the MTO unit is difficult to separate, leading to equipment blockage. Existing technologies such as air flotation and membrane separation are inefficient or costly, while chemical methods are not targeted enough and cannot adapt to the conditions of strong alkalinity, high emulsification and high oil content.

Method used

An oil-water separator composed of benzaldehyde and quinoxaline compounds is used to achieve efficient separation of the oil and water phases by disrupting the oil-alkali phase interface film. The demulsification effect is enhanced by multi-point continuous injection, which is suitable for the operating conditions of MTO units.

Benefits of technology

It achieves rapid demulsification and clear separation of waste alkaline solution, reduces the risk of equipment blockage, ensures long-term stable operation of MTO unit, and has no secondary pollution, low cost, and strong adaptability to operating conditions.

Abstract

This invention discloses a method for preparing and using an oil-water separator for waste alkali solution in an MTO (Metal-Oxygen Tolerant) unit. The oil-water separator contains benzaldehyde and quinoxaline compounds, which can rapidly break the stability of the oil-alkali phase aqueous dispersion system, achieve rapid demulsification and efficient oil removal, significantly improve the oil-water separation efficiency of the waste alkali solution, and effectively solve the technical problem of low oil removal efficiency of waste alkali solution in alkali washing towers by oil separation and air flotation processes in the industry. It fundamentally eliminates the clogging risk of waste alkali evaporation towers and subsequent process systems, and provides a reliable guarantee for the safe, stable, long-term full-load operation of the MTO unit.
