Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of MTBE processing, and more specifically, to a MTBE catalytic distillation device. Background Art

[0002] MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether) is a clear, colorless liquid with a low boiling point and volatility. MTBE is often used as an additive and added to gasoline to increase the octane number of the fuel and prevent engine knock. After long-term use, the existing catalytic distillation tower has a lower catalyst efficiency at the bottom, while the catalyst at the top still has a high catalytic efficiency. When replacing the catalyst, the entire tower is replaced, which invisibly increases the cost of the catalyst and reduces the actual use efficiency of the catalyst.

[0003] After searching, a Chinese patent with announcement number CN210933849U discloses an "MTBE catalytic distillation device". By setting at least two catalytic reaction towers in parallel, while ensuring a certain isobutylene conversion rate, the number and thickness of the catalyst bed are reduced. On the one hand, the overall tower height of the catalytic distillation tower is reduced, the capital construction cost is reduced, and the difficulty of inspection and management by operators is reduced. On the other hand, when replacing the catalyst or inspecting and repairing the catalytic reaction tower, the spare catalytic reaction tower can be switched to carry out normal production, thereby ensuring the continuity of production.

[0004] When the above-mentioned distillation device is in use, the mixture after rough separation enters the catalytic distillation tower, and the MTBE in the mixture is purified and extracted through the distillation process. However, the extracted MTBE contains moisture, and it is inconvenient to remove the moisture in the MTBE, which affects the product quality of MTBE. Utility Model Content

[0009] It can be seen that in the above technical solution, the silicone in the catheter is taken out and replaced, and the silicone is installed in the same way, and the extrusion frame extrude the silicone.

[0010] Furthermore, the top ends of the first processing cylinder and the second processing cylinder are both fixedly connected with a first connecting pipe, and the first valves are fixedly installed on the two first connecting pipes.

[0011] It can be seen that the above technical solution is convenient for feeding and exhausting.

[0012] Furthermore, the first processing cylinder is provided with a rotating assembly, and the rotating assembly includes a motor, a rotating shaft, a plurality of stirring blades and a brush plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the motor is fixedly mounted on the top of the first processing cylinder, the top of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the end of the motor output shaft, a plurality of stirring blades are fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft, and the brush plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating shaft.

[0014] Furthermore, a sealing cover is provided on one side of the first processing cylinder.

[0015] It can be seen that in the above technical solution, it is convenient to clean the impurities in the first processing cylinder.

[0016] Technical effects and advantages of the utility model:

[0017] 1. The utility model heats the mixture in the first processing cylinder by the heater. Since MTBE has a low boiling point, it will evaporate first at an appropriate temperature. The second valve is opened, and the gas enters the second processing cylinder through the second connecting pipe.

Finally, the threaded piston is rotated and kept away from the second processing cylinder to discharge the liquid MTBE in the second processing cylinder. The operation is simple, the moisture in MTBE is convenient to remove, and the product quality of MTBE is effectively improved.

[0018] 2. The utility model drives the rotating shaft to rotate through the operation of the motor, thereby driving multiple stirring blades to rotate. The multiple stirring blades stir the mixture so that the mixture can be heated evenly. At the same time, the brush plate cleans the impurities at the bottom end of the first processing cylinder to prevent the impurities from being adsorbed at the bottom end of the first processing cylinder. Finally, the sealing cover is opened to clean the impurities in the first processing cylinder. The structure is simple and easy to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
