Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fine chemical production, and particularly relates to a production device for di(octyl / decyl)methyl tertiary amine. Background Art
[0002] Dialkylmethyl tertiary amine is an important intermediate for the preparation of cationic and zwitterionic surfactants. It can be used in preservatives, fungicides, pigment dispersants, mineral flotation agents, cosmetics and other fields, and has high market value. Among them, di(octyl / decyl)methyl tertiary amine is prepared into quaternary ammonium salt surfactant due to its carbon chain length adaptation, showing better dispersing and bactericidal effects, and is a third-generation bactericide with excellent performance.
[0003] There are two main methods for preparing alkyl tertiary amines: the halogenation method and the fatty alcohol one-step method. The halogenation method requires multiple steps to react to obtain alkyl tertiary amines. Currently, alkyl tertiary amines are generally prepared by the fatty alcohol one-step method. Fatty alcohols react with ammonia in the presence of a catalyst and hydrogen to obtain a mixture of alkyl tertiary amines and water. For the preparation of disilyl alkyl tertiary amines, if the control is not appropriate, a large amount of long-chain alkyl alcohols will not react normally, resulting in the generation of long-chain aldol condensation products and long-chain alkyl ester impurities, which will affect product quality and increase production costs.

[0045] The fatty alcohol used was industrial grade n-decanol.
[0046] Preliminary preparation:
[0047] Fill the packing tower with packing and catalyst in a volume ratio of 2:1, and fill to a liquid level of 4000L; open and close the corresponding valves, replace the air in the equipment system with hydrogen, close the valves, and keep the system airtight; pre-add 20kg of catalyst to the reactor. Example
[0048] Step 1: switch the corresponding valves, pump methylamine from the gas delivery pipeline through the tee from the air inlet 501 into the first air heater 5 for heating, and then enter the packed tower 1 through the packed tower air inlet 101, maintain a certain gas pressure in the system, open the constant temperature heat exchanger 105 to raise the temperature in the tower to 180±20°C, pump decanol from the feed port 102 at a certain flow rate, and the gas enters the first gas-liquid separator 4 through the air inlet 401 from the gas outlet 103 to remove water. After dehydration, the gas enters the first air heater 5 again through the gas outlet 402 and the tee for heating circulation. During the reaction process, methylamine gas is added through the gas delivery pipeline to maintain a constant gas pressure in the system. After 2 hours, when the liquid in the tower submerges the solid filler, the reaction liquid is continuously discharged from the discharge port 104 into the reactor 2, and the liquid level in the tower is maintained constant by controlling the discharge rate.
[0049] Step 2: After a certain amount of reaction liquid is enriched in the reactor, the reaction liquid is enriched in the parallel reactor by controlling the valve, the temperature in the reactor 2 is raised to 190±20°C by the constant temperature heat exchanger 206, and decanol is pumped into from the feed port 203 at a certain flow rate. The gas enters the second gas-liquid separator 6 from the gas outlet 204 for dehydration, and then enters the second air heater 7. After being heated, it is pumped into the reactor 2 for circulation again.
[0050] Step 3: After reacting for 2 hours, the liquid in the reactor 2 is filtered through a filter pump and pumped into the distillation tower 3 from the liquid inlet 301. The decanol and didecylmethyl tertiary amine are distilled out in turn and collected separately through the gas outlet 302. The remaining high-boiling point liquid is released from the liquid outlet 303 and pumped into the hydrolysis kettle for separation and reuse after hydrolysis.
[0051] The products from three kettles were collected to obtain 5278.7 kg of didecylmethyl tertiary amine, with a primary conversion rate (based on decanol) of 91.43% and a primary yield (based on decanol) of 94.62%.
