Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of alkylation reactors, in particular to a vertical alkylation reactor. Background Art
[0002] Alkylation refers to the reaction of introducing alkyl groups (-R) into carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and other atoms in organic molecules, referred to as alkylation. Commonly used alkylating agents include olefins, halogenated alkanes, alkyl sulfates and alcohols. Alkylation is one of the important reactions in organic synthesis. Through alkylation, new carbon, carbon-heterovalent bonds can be formed, thereby extending the molecular skeleton of organic compounds, changing the chemical structure of the alkylated compounds, giving them new properties, and producing many organic chemicals with specific uses. In the process of alkylation, corresponding alkylation reactors are required for reaction operations.
[0003] Announcement No. "CN209952815U" provides a vertical alkylation reaction device, in which two liquids are poured into the reactor from different independent pipes, and then gathered in the same branch pipe.

[0004] However, the above technical solutions and the prior art have the following defects:
[0005] Although the vertical alkylation reaction device can spray through the through-holes to evenly cover the entire spatial cross-section of the reactor for reaction, the second feed pipe is L-shaped. Therefore, in actual use, the corners of the second feed pipe are very prone to siltation and blockage, and the through-holes are also prone to blockage, thereby affecting the processing efficiency of the reaction device. In addition, the vertical alkylation reaction device does not have an active mixing structure inside to stir and mix the reactants, and the reaction efficiency needs to be improved.

Example
[0030] On the basis of the first embodiment, in this embodiment, by driving the low-speed motor 22 to rotate the rotating vertical shaft 23, the rotating vertical shaft 23 can drive the stirring bar 24 to rotate together to actively stir the mixture of hydrocarbon material and acid material inside the vertical reactor 3. In this process, the rectangular through cavity 25 can increase the stirring area of the stirring bar 24, and the vertical baffle 26 can block a part of the mixed material at the inner edge of the vertical reactor 3 and make it surge, thereby improving the mixing reaction efficiency of the hydrocarbon material and the acid material.
[0031] The mixing assembly 2 includes a motor bracket 21, a low-speed motor 22, a rotating vertical shaft 23 and a stirring bar 24. The motor bracket 21 is installed at the middle position of the bottom of the vertical reactor 3. The motor bracket 21 will support the low-speed motor 22. The low-speed motor 22 is installed at the lower end of the motor bracket 21. The low-speed motor 22 is connected to an external control switch through a wire. When working, the low-speed motor 22 will drive the rotating vertical shaft 23 to rotate at a low speed. The upper end of the low-speed motor 22 is installed with a rotating vertical shaft 23. The rotating vertical shaft 23 is connected to the stirring bar 24 by welding, and the rotating vertical shaft 23 will drive the stirring bar 24 to rotate.
[0032] A stirring bar 24 is arranged on the annular side of the rotating vertical shaft 23. The stirring bar 24 stirs the mixed material inside the vertical reactor 3 when rotating. A rectangular through cavity 25 is opened inside the stirring bar 24. The rectangular through cavity 25 can increase the stirring area of the stirring bar 24, thereby further improving the stirring efficiency of the stirring bar 24. A vertical baffle 26 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the inner annular side of the vertical reactor 3. The vertical baffle 26 blocks a part of the mixed material at the inner edge of the vertical reactor 3 and makes it surge, so that the mixed material is mixed more fully. A mechanical seal 231 is installed on the lower side of the annular side of the rotating vertical shaft 23. The mechanical seal 231 makes the sealing between the rotating vertical shaft 23 and the vertical reactor 3 better, so as to prevent the mixed material inside the vertical reactor 3 from overflowing to the outside through the gap.
[0033] Working principle: the staff first opens the main feed valve 66 to introduce a proper amount of acid material into the vertical reactor 3, and then opens the auxiliary feed valve 65 to introduce a proper amount of hydrocarbon material into the vertical reactor 3. During this process, the auxiliary through cavity 64 will guide the acid material discharged from the auxiliary feed valve 65 downward into the diversion inclined pipe 63, and the diversion inclined pipe will guide the acid material into the main diversion pipe 68, so that the active diversion pipe guides the acid material downward to the upper end surface of the dispersion block 62, and the main through cavity 67 will directly guide the hydrocarbon material discharged from the main feed valve 66 into the main diversion pipe 68, so that the main diversion pipe 68 guides the hydrocarbon material downward to the upper end surface of the dispersion block 62. At this time, the conical dispersion block 62 will disperse the hydrocarbon material and acid material that are guided down to the surroundings to avoid the hydrocarbon material and acid material being concentrated and guided down to one place for accumulation, so as to ensure the subsequent mixing uniformity of the hydrocarbon material and the acid material; at the same time, the low-speed motor 22 is started to drive the low-speed motor 22 to rotate the vertical shaft 23 rotates, and the rotating vertical shaft 23 drives the stirring bar 24 to rotate together, so that the stirring bar 24 stirs the mixture of hydrocarbon material and acid material in the vertical reactor 3. In this process, the rectangular through cavity 25 can increase the stirring area of the stirring bar 24, so as to further improve the stirring efficiency of the stirring bar 24, and the vertical baffle 26 can block a part of the mixed material at the inner edge of the vertical reactor 3 and make it surge, so as to accelerate the mixing reaction efficiency of the hydrocarbon material and the acid material; at the same time, the staff only needs to start the external circulation electric heater to make the heat transfer oil heated to the required temperature be transported to the inside of the heat exchange jacket 4 through the liquid inlet pipe 41 to heat the vertical reactor 3, so that the vertical reactor 3 heats the mixture of hydrocarbon material and acid material inside to react. After the reaction reaches the required time, the staff first turns off the external circulation electric heater, then turns off the low-speed motor 22 and opens the discharge valve 31 to discharge the reactants in the vertical reactor 3.
