Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of DMC production technology, and particularly relates to a system and process for producing high-purity DMC by decarbonylation of DMO. Background Technology
[0002] From the perspective of DMC (dimethyl carbonate) industry development, DMC is an environmentally friendly chemical product that has received widespread attention both domestically and internationally in recent years. DMC possesses excellent reactivity and can replace highly toxic or carcinogenic substances such as phosgene, DMS (dimethyl sulfate), chloromethane, and methyl chloroformate in carbonylation, methylation, esterification, and transesterification reactions in many fields, producing a variety of high-value-added fine chemicals. It has found wide application in pharmaceuticals, pesticides, synthetic materials, dyes, lubricant additives, food flavorings, and electronic chemicals. Furthermore, its non-reactive uses, such as as a solvent, solvent medium, and gasoline additive, are also being or will soon be put into practical use, demonstrating its broad application prospects.
[0003] The DMO (dimethyl oxalate) decarbonylation synthesis of DMC has the advantages of wide availability of raw materials and high atom economy. However, existing similar production facilities suffer from the following shortcomings: catalyst feeding and preparation are mostly open operations, making the catalyst susceptible to air deactivation and resulting in poor metering accuracy; the gas-liquid-solid three-phase product separation equipment is scattered, leading to poor separation of the catalyst carried by the liquid phase material from the solid phase; the material loops between the reaction system, catalyst recovery system, and product post-processing system are poorly matched; the unreacted DMO recovery and recycling process is incomplete; and it is difficult to stably produce both primary and electronic grade DMC products simultaneously from a single unit, resulting in short continuous operation cycles. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an integrated production system encompassing closed catalyst preparation, decarbonylation reaction, three-phase product separation, catalyst recovery, material recycling, and product classification and purification. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention proposes an innovative approach and designs a system and process for the decarbonylation of DMO to produce high-purity DMC, which is achieved through the following technical solutions.
[0005] A system for producing high-purity DMC from DMO via decarbonylation includes a raw material tank area for DMO, a catalyst silo, a catalyst preparation unit, a DMO decarbonylation reaction unit, a gas phase product processing unit, a paddle dryer, a flash tank, a crude product tank, and a DMC refining unit. The output of the catalyst silo is connected to the inlet of the catalyst preparation unit. The DMO outlet pipeline in the raw material tank area is divided into two branches: one connected to the inlet of the catalyst preparation unit, and the other connected to the inlet of the DMO decarbonylation reaction unit. The outlet of the prepared material from the catalyst preparation unit is connected to the DMO decarbonylation reaction unit. The gas phase outlet of the DMO decarbonylation reaction unit is connected to the gas phase product processing unit.

[0011] A process for producing high-purity DMC from DMO by decarbonylation is characterized by comprising the following steps: S01, Catalyst preparation: After nitrogen replacement and steam drying, the catalyst is sent from the silo to the feed tank via gas conveying; the catalyst in the feed tank is weighed by a weighing device and then flows by gravity to the catalyst preparation kettle, where it is mixed with DMO from the raw material tank area; the prepared catalyst slurry is sent into the decarbonylation reactor via a catalyst delivery pump. SO2, DMO decarbonylation reaction: DMO from the feedstock tank area is mixed with catalyst slurry in the DMO decarbonylation reactor. The reactor is heated by a dual heating method of "jacket heating + circulating heat exchange" to cause the DMO to undergo a decarbonylation reaction to generate DMC and CO. The reaction gas phase is collected from the top of the decarbonylation reactor, and after the entrained liquid is removed by the reaction product separator, it flows back to the reactor. The deliquescent gas phase product enters a multi-stage condenser for cooling. The condensate flows by gravity to the flash tank, and the non-condensable gas enters the tail cooler for further cooling. The condensate is collected in the flash tank, and the tail gas is washed with water and sent out of the boundary area. The crude product in the flash tank is transported to the crude product tank for storage. The reaction liquid phase overflows from the bottom of the reactor to the paddle dryer. After drying and separation, the solid catalyst is directly bagged and sent to the catalyst processing process. The separated gas phase is cooled and sent back to the flash tank for recycling. S03, DMC Refining: The crude product from the crude product tank enters the middle section of the light product removal tower. The non-condensable gas at the top of the condenser is combined with the tail gas generated by the gas processing unit and then sent out. The bottom material is sent to the middle section of the heavy product removal tower. The bottom material of the heavy product removal tower is sent back to the carbonyl removal reactor for recycling, and the top material is sent to the lower part of refining tower A.

The bottom material that passes the analysis is sent to the primary DMC storage tank, and the unqualified material is returned to the middle section of the heavy product removal tower for re-distillation.
[0012] Furthermore, in the S01 catalyst preparation process, the temperature of the catalyst slurry in the reactor is controlled at 175℃~180℃, and the solid content of the catalyst slurry is controlled at 10%wt~20%wt.

The top condenser temperature is controlled at 60℃~90℃, the bottom temperature is controlled at 100℃~105℃, and the pressure is controlled at 0.03MPa~0.05MPa.
[0015] Beneficial effects: 1. A sealed catalyst silo with nitrogen purging, drying, pneumatic conveying, and weighing functions is set up. The catalyst is transported and prepared under an inert atmosphere, avoiding catalyst deactivation upon contact with air, and ensuring high metering accuracy. 2.

The system includes a raw material tank area for DMO, a catalyst silo, a catalyst preparation unit, a DMO decarbonylation reaction unit, a gas phase product processing unit, a paddle dryer, a flash tank, a crude product tank, and a DMC refining unit. The catalyst silo is a sealed silo, integrating a nitrogen replacement interface, drying pipeline, pneumatic conveying pipeline, and weighing module. Its output end is connected to the inlet of the catalyst preparation unit. The DMO outlet pipeline in the raw material tank area is divided into two lines: one line connects to the inlet of the catalyst preparation unit, and the other line connects to the inlet of the DMO decarbonylation reaction unit. The catalyst preparation unit includes a feeding tank, a catalyst preparation vessel, and a catalyst delivery pump.

The reaction heater is an intelligent temperature-controlled electric heater, which is connected to the decarbonylation reactor via a circulation pipeline and the delivery pump. Equipped with a jacketed steam heating device and a stirring paddle, its gas phase outlet is connected to a gas phase product processing unit. The gas phase product processing unit includes a multi-stage condenser and a liquid separator with a non-condensable gas tail gas outlet, connected to a flash tank via liquid separator and multi-stage condenser pipelines. The liquid phase outlet of the DMO decarbonylation reaction unit is connected to a paddle dryer.

The port connects to the DMC refining unit; the DMC refining unit includes four distillation columns: a light-weight removal column, a heavy-weight removal column, refining column A, and refining column B.

[0021] As a further improvement, the catalyst preparation unit can adopt an A / B dual-system alternating operation mode, preparing the catalyst once every 24 hours to ensure the continuous and stable operation of subsequent processes.
[0022] As a further improvement, the reaction heater can also be a steam-heated heater, which improves operational safety.
[0023] The process flow of this embodiment is as follows.
[0024] S01, Catalyst Preparation: After nitrogen replacement and steam drying, the catalyst is transported from the silo to the feed tank via gas conveying. The catalyst in the feed tank is weighed by a weighing device and then flows by gravity to the catalyst preparation kettle, where it is mixed with DMO from the raw material tank area. Steam is introduced into the jacket of the preparation kettle to stabilize the temperature of the catalyst slurry at 175°C. When the solid content of the catalyst slurry reaches 15%wt, it is sent to the decarbonylation reactor via a catalyst transfer pump.
[0025] SO2, DMO decarbonylation reaction: DMO from the feedstock tank is mixed with catalyst slurry in the DMO decarbonylation reactor, where DMO undergoes a decarbonylation reaction to produce DMC and CO. The reaction equation is as follows: This reaction is endothermic, and a dual heating method of "jacketed heating + circulating heat exchange" (reaction heater temperature set at 210℃) is used to heat the reactor and stabilize its temperature at 193℃. The reactor pressure is stabilized at 0.35MPa by controlling the reactor feed rate and output rate to ensure the continuous and stable progress of the reaction. The decarbonylation reaction products are processed in two parts: gas phase and liquid phase. Reactor gas phase: The reaction products are collected from the top of the decarbonylation reactor in gas phase form, and entrained liquid is removed by the reaction product separator. The dehydrated gas phase products enter a multi-stage condenser and are cooled to 70°C. The condensate flows by gravity to the flash tank. The non-condensable gas enters the tail cooler (cooled by 8°C chilled water) for further cooling to 8°C. The condensate flows into the flash tank. The tail gas (mainly composed of CO, DME, CO2 and other light components) is sent to the circulating water of the refrigeration unit for heat exchange to 40°C. After being washed with water, it is sent out of the boundary area. The crude product after flash evaporation is sent to the crude product tank for storage by the crude product transfer pump. Reactor liquid phase: The DMO and catalyst mixture in the decarbonylation reactor overflows to the paddle dryer. After drying and separation, the solid catalyst is directly bagged and sent to the catalyst processing step, while the separated gas phase is cooled and sent to the flash tank for recycling.
[0026] S03, DMC Refining: The crude DMC product flows sequentially through four distillation columns: a light-light product removal column, a heavy-light product removal column, a refining column A, and a refining column B, to achieve fractional purification of the crude DMC product.

The operating temperature at the top of the light component removal tower is 50.2℃ and the pressure is 0.02MPa, while the operating temperature at the bottom of the tower is 128.9℃ and the pressure is 0.036MPa. The vapor at the top of the tower is cooled to 7.3℃ by the condenser and then enters the reflux tank. Part of the condensate is returned to the top of the tower by the reflux pump, and the other part is sent out of the boundary area. The non-condensable gas at the top of the condenser is combined with the tail gas generated by the gas processing unit and then sent out. The material at the bottom of the tower is mainly a mixture of DMO and DMC, which is pumped into the heavy component removal tower by the bottom pump. Heavy separation tower: The bottom material of the light separation tower enters the middle of the heavy separation tower to achieve the initial separation of DMO and DMC; the operating temperature at the top of the heavy separation tower is 79.5℃ and the pressure is -0.03MPa, and the operating temperature at the bottom of the tower is 159.2℃ and the pressure is -0.011MPa; the steam at the top of the tower is cooled to 60℃ by the condenser and then enters the reflux tank. Part of the condensate is returned to the top of the tower by the reflux pump, and the other part is used as feed for the purification tower; the bottom material is mainly DMO, which is pumped back to the carbonyl removal reactor for recycling. Purification Tower A: The primary DMC from the top of the de-weighting tower enters the lower part of purification tower A for deep purification; the operating temperature at the top of purification tower A is 95.6℃ and the pressure is 0.02MPa, and the operating temperature at the bottom of the tower is 101.7℃ and the pressure is 0.036MPa; the steam at the top of the tower is cooled to 80℃ by the condenser and then enters the reflux tank. Part of the condensate is returned to the top of the tower by the reflux pump, and the other part is cooled to 40℃ and then sent to the primary DMC storage tank. The material at the bottom of the tower is sent to purification tower B for further purification. Refining Column B: Dimethyl carbonate from the bottom of Refining Column A enters the lower part of Refining Column B for further deep purification; the operating temperature at the top of Refining Column B is 95.6℃ and the pressure is 0.02MPa, while the operating temperature at the bottom is 101.7℃ and the pressure is 0.036MPa; the vapor at the top of the column is cooled to 80℃ by a condenser and then enters the reflux tank. Part of the condensate is returned to the top of the column by a reflux pump, and the other part is cooled to 40℃ and then sent to the electronic-grade DMC storage tank; the material at the bottom of the column is a mixture of trace amounts of DMO and DMC. After being cooled to 40℃, it is analyzed and found to meet the qualification standards of Grade I DMC, and then sent to the Grade I DMC storage tank. Example 2
