Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of hydrogen peroxide production, and specifically relates to a hydrogen peroxide extraction device. Background Art
[0002] At present, the commonly used anthraquinone process methods for preparing hydrogen peroxide in China are: 1. fixed bed alkaline process, 2. fixed bed fully acidic process, 3. fluidized bed process; the anthraquinone process has mild reaction, low cost, and is easy for large-scale production. It is currently the main method for producing hydrogen peroxide in industry.
[0003] The main operations of the anthraquinone method include hydrogenation, oxidation, extraction and purification. The principle is to mix heavy aromatic hydrocarbons, trioctyl phosphate, tetrabutyl urea, 2-ethylanthraquinone or tetrahydro-2-ethylanthraquinone, and then catalytically hydrogenate 2-ethylanthraquinone or tetrahydro-2-ethylanthraquinone and oxidize it with air to obtain oxidizing liquid and hydrogen peroxide.
[0004] Extraction is a very important separation step in hydrogen peroxide production; the extraction tower is divided into a concentration section, an equilibrium section, and a raffinate reduction section from bottom to top; and the sieve plate extraction tower is the most widely used, with a simple structure, low energy consumption, and effective extraction. However, there are still many factors that affect its operation, such as flooding point load, minimum load of the extraction tower, and maximum height of the dispersed phase under the plate. The opening rate of the plate tower, the diameter of the hole, and the fluid volume flow rate, the interfacial tension between the two phases, and the density difference between the two phases can directly affect the quality of hydrogen peroxide. The high hydrogen peroxide content in the raffinate restricts the increase in the load of the device and has a high safety risk. The high raffinate returned to the hydrogenation system is prone to cause the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to produce a flash explosion;
[0005] Therefore, the market is in urgent need of an efficient extraction tray, coalescing and separating fillers to reduce the content of the raffinate; to enable hydrogen peroxide and pure water to fully transfer mass and extract efficiently, and further coalesce and separate to solve these problems. At present, the Ministry of Emergency Management requires the addition of online detection and monitoring measures for the raffinate, and the shutdown of the plant for high raffinate; but it cannot fundamentally solve the safety problem. Utility Model Content
[0006] The utility model aims to solve the problems of high raffinate hydrogen peroxide content and turbid oily extract in the existing hydrogen peroxide extraction tower described in the background technology, and proposes a new hydrogen peroxide extraction tower, which has low raffinate hydrogen peroxide content and high purity of extract.
[0007] The technical solution adopted to achieve the above-mentioned purpose is a hydrogen peroxide extraction device, which includes a hydrogen peroxide extraction tower, a raffinate coalescing separator and a purification tower, wherein the raffinate coalescing separator is connected to the top of the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower, and the purification tower is connected to the bottom of the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower;
[0008] The hydrogen peroxide extraction tower comprises a tower body, the side wall of which is provided with an overflow port, a raffinate outlet, a pure water inlet and an oxidation liquid inlet in order from top to bottom, the bottom of the tower body is provided with an extraction liquid outlet, and a tower plate group is provided inside the tower body, and the tower plate group comprises a top tower plate, a plurality of composite tower plates and a plurality of ordinary tower plates in order from top to bottom;
[0009] The composite tower plate includes a sieve plate, a coalescence separation layer, a screen and a downcomer. The coalescence separation layer is connected to the sieve plate at the top and to the screen at the bottom. One end of the downcomer is connected to the sieve plate, and the other end of the downcomer passes through the coalescence separation layer and the screen.
[0010] In the above technical scheme, the oxidizing liquid enters from the bottom of the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower and is dispersed into fine liquid droplets by the sieve plate group, and the pure water enters from the top of the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower to countercurrently contact with the oxidizing liquid, and the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the pure water is continuously increased, and finally discharged from the extraction liquid outlet into the purification tower for further extraction and separation to obtain hydrogen peroxide; the top raffinate is discharged through the raffinate outlet into the raffinate coalescing separator for flash dehydration, wherein, in the countercurrent extraction process, the raffinate oil phase components mainly include dispersed oil, dissolved oil and emulsified oil, and the difficulty of oil removal lies in the removal of dissolved oil and emulsified oil. The utility model cuts the emulsified oil by the sieve at the bottom of the composite tower plate to achieve physical demulsification.
[0011] Furthermore, the screen is a mesh-shaped polytetrafluoroethylene wire mesh.
[0012] Furthermore, polytetrafluoroethylene filler is filled between the top tower plate and the uppermost composite tower plate.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the middle of the top tray sieve plate is provided with uniform sieve holes, and the lower sieve plate adopts stepped holes, which, combined with polytetrafluoroethylene fillers, can increase the throughput of the equipment. This makes the operation flexible and the volumetric efficiency of the equipment high. In addition, the dispersed oil is more easily dispersed into smaller droplets when flowing through the demulsification section and the clarification section, which makes the mass transfer specific surface area large and the extraction and separation efficiency high, solving the problem of large top interfacial tension and water in the raffinate.
[0014] Furthermore, a first packing layer is provided between the raffinate outlet and the pure water inlet.
[0015] Furthermore, the first packing layer is filled with stainless steel corrugated packing with polytetrafluoroethylene sprayed on the surface.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the use of this filler can improve the strength of the filler, which is not easy to corrode, clog and deform. The polytetrafluoroethylene coating has oleophilic and hydrophobic properties, thereby increasing the ability of the raffinate to pass through the first filler layer, and can reduce the flow pressure drop ratio of the corrugated screen tube by 30%, thereby increasing the service life and oil permeability of the device, and further improving the agglomeration and separation effect.
[0017] Furthermore, the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower is provided with 7-10 layers of composite tower plates, preferably 7 layers of composite tower plates.
[0018] In the above technical solution, the 7-layer composite tower plate can achieve the purpose of physical demulsification and reduce the entrainment problem.
[0019] Furthermore, the pore size of the sieve plate is 3.4±0.1 mm.
[0020] In the above technical solution, the aperture of the sieve plate is increased, and the principle of like dissolves like is used to promote the separation of oil components in water.
[0021] Furthermore, the hydrogen peroxide extraction tower is provided with 7 to 41 layers of ordinary tower plates.
[0022] Furthermore, the distance between the coalescence separation layer and the sieve plate of the adjacent upper composite tower plate is 400-500 mm.
[0023] In the above technical scheme, the spacing combined with the composite tower plate creates a forced separation layer between two adjacent sieve plates, thereby increasing the extraction efficiency of each sieve plate by more than 30%, so that there is both a mass transfer section and a pinellia separation section between two adjacent sieve plates, thereby improving the extraction efficiency of the extraction tower.
[0024] Furthermore, the purification tower is provided with several sections of second packing layers, and the second packing layers are filled with stainless steel corrugated packing with polytetrafluoroethylene sprayed on the surface, preferably 3 sections of second packing layers.
[0025] In the above technical solution, the fillers are distributed in a certain proportion, and the extract and the continuous phase heavy aromatics are further extracted and separated to obtain qualified hydrogen peroxide.
[0026] The advantages of the utility model are:
[0027] 1. The utility model solves the problem of water in the raffinate by filling polytetrafluoroethylene filler between the top tray and the top composite tray to reduce the droplet size of the dispersed phase and lower the top interfacial tension.
[0028] 2. The utility model provides a first packing layer between the raffinate outlet and the pure water inlet, and the first packing layer can increase the passing rate of the raffinate, further improving the coalescence separation efficiency and the service life of the device.
[0029] 3. The utility model realizes physical demulsification of emulsified oil by filling the screen.
[0030] 4. The utility model realizes the separation of oil components in water by increasing the aperture of the sieve plate.
[0031] 5. The utility model further reduces the content of organic carbon, free acid and non-volatile matter through the composite tower plate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
