A method and apparatus for refining p-dioxanone by distillation coupled with gas phase adsorption dehydration
By using a depressurized distillation coupled with gas-phase adsorption dehydration, distillation is carried out under full reflux conditions, and the adsorption tank and empty tank are switched. This solves the problems of low dehydration efficiency and impurity introduction in the purification process of dioxane in the prior art, and realizes a highly efficient and simplified purification process and the production of high-purity products.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for refining dioxane have problems such as low dehydration efficiency, complex processes, and easy introduction of impurities, which affect product purity and production efficiency.
A decompression distillation coupled with gas-phase adsorption dehydration method is adopted. Distillation is carried out under total reflux conditions. Gas-phase adsorption dehydration is achieved by switching between adsorption tanks and empty tanks. The discharge operation is carried out by periodically analyzing the water content in the condensate at the top of the column, and trace water is adsorbed and removed simultaneously.
This technology enables the efficient production of high-purity, low-water-content p-dioxanone within the same equipment, simplifying the process, improving production efficiency, maintaining product yield, and reducing investment costs.
