[0005] In order to improve the efficiency of producing (1r, 4r)-1-methyl-4-(nitromethyl)cyclohexane-1-ol, the present application provides a fixed bed for hydrogenation reduction.

[0006] The fixed bed for hydrogenation reduction provided in the present application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A fixed bed for hydrogenation reduction comprises a frame, wherein a vertically arranged exchange column is arranged on the frame, and a plurality of horizontal partitions are arranged in the exchange column, wherein the plurality of partitions are evenly distributed and spaced along the vertical direction of the exchange column, and a fixed bed layer for mixing raw materials is formed between adjacent partitions, and a plurality of mesh holes are evenly distributed on the partitions and penetrate the partitions along the vertical direction, and a hydrogen storage tank and a feeding tank are arranged on the frame, wherein the hydrogen storage tank is connected to the upper end of the exchange column through an air outlet pipe, and the feeding tank is connected to the upper end of the exchange column through a feeding pipe, and the lower end of the exchange column is connected to a discharge pipe, wherein a first valve for controlling the discharge of feed liquid is provided on the discharge pipe, and a receiving barrel is provided at the lower end of the discharge pipe.

[0008] By adopting the above technical scheme, the hydrogen in the hydrogen storage tank flows into the exchange column from the upper end of the exchange column through the outlet pipe, the raw material 1-methyl-4-(nitromethyl)cyclohexyl-3-ene-1-ol and the Crabtree catalyst are dissolved in the feeding tank and flow into the exchange column from the upper end of the exchange column through the feeding pipe, the exchange column is divided into multiple beds by partitions, the raw materials and hydrogen are dispersed in the multiple beds through the mesh to mix and react, and the materials after the reaction are flowed into the receiving barrel through the discharge pipe at the lower end of the exchange column. Compared with traditional equipment, this technology adopts a fixed bed to replace the traditional reactor to achieve continuous feeding and reaction, so that the volume of the equipment is reduced and the reaction speed is increased.

[0009] Optionally, the fixed bed layer is filled with glass balls, the cross-sectional size of the glass balls is larger than the mesh size, and the diameter of the glass balls is smaller than or equal to the vertical distance between two adjacent partitions.

[0010] This reaction is a reaction between gaseous hydrogen and liquid materials, and mixing is relatively difficult. By adopting the above technical solution, the glass balls filled in the bed can improve the gas-liquid mixing efficiency and increase the reaction rate.

[0011] Optionally, the material receiving barrel includes a barrel body and an end cover, the end cover is threadedly connected to the upper end of the barrel body, the upper end of the end cover is connected to a vertically upward connecting pipe, the lower end of the discharge pipe is sleeved on the connecting pipe, and a pressure relief valve is provided on the side wall of the barrel body.

[0012] This reaction requires a high degree of cleanliness for the equipment. The reaction will be inactivated when the internal environment of the exchange column comes into contact with air. By adopting the above technical solution, the reacted liquid flows from the discharge pipe through the connecting pipe into the barrel body. The end cover and the barrel body are threadedly connected to play a sealing role, thereby reducing the entry of air and maintaining the reaction activity in the exchange column. The liquid entering the barrel body will increase the pressure in the receiving barrel, and the setting of the pressure relief valve can balance the air pressure.

[0013] Optionally, a fastening strip is provided at the lower end of the discharge pipe, and the fastening strip is in a circular ring shape and is sleeved on the discharge pipe. Fastening plates are provided at both ends of the fastening strip, and the two fastening plates are vertically arranged to the fastening strip. When the fastening strip is sleeved on the discharge pipe, the two fastening plates are located on the outer ring surface, and a fastening bolt is provided on the fastening plate. The part of the rod of the fastening bolt that passes through the two fastening plates and is exposed is threadedly connected with a fastening nut.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, after the discharge pipe is sleeved on the connecting pipe, the fastening strip is formed into a ring and sleeved on the connection between the discharge pipe and the connecting pipe. After the fastening strip forms a ring, the two fastening plates are close to each other, and the rod of the fastening bolt passes through the two fastening plates and is threadedly connected and fixed with the fastening bolt. After the fastening plate is fixed, it drives the fastening strip to tighten the discharge pipe, thereby making the connection between the discharge pipe and the connecting pipe more stable.

[0015] Optionally, a detection tube is provided on the side wall of the discharge tube, the first valve is located above the detection tube, and a second valve for controlling the opening and closing of the detection tube is provided on the detection tube.

[0016] During continuous reaction, regular sampling is required to detect the reaction results. By adopting the above technical solution, the operator opens the second valve, and the material flows out from the discharge pipe through the detection pipe, so that the operator does not need to open the end cover to take samples from the barrel, thereby achieving the effect of convenient operation.

[0017] Optionally, a one-way valve is provided on the detection tube, and the flow direction of the one-way valve is from the discharge pipe to the end of the detection tube away from the discharge pipe, and the one-way valve is located between the second valve and the discharge pipe.

[0018] When sampling from the detection tube, air is prone to reflux into the exchange column and affect the activity of the reaction. By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the one-way valve allows the liquid to flow out of the detection tube only, reducing the reflux of the liquid and air, thereby maintaining the reaction activity.

[0019] Optionally, the hydrogen storage tank and the gas outlet pipe are both coated with a thermal insulation layer.

[0020] When hydrogen is released from a hydrogen storage tank, the gas pressure drops and it absorbs heat, causing the temperature of the hydrogen storage tank and the outlet pipe to drop. Operators are easily injured when they touch the hydrogen storage tank and the outlet pipe with lower temperatures. By adopting the above technical solution, the insulation layer can slow down the temperature transfer between the hydrogen storage tank and the outlet pipe and the outside world, thereby protecting the operators.

[0021] Optionally, the air outlet pipe and the feeding pipe are provided with flow meters for measuring the flow of materials in the air outlet pipe and the feeding pipe.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the flow meter is used to detect the flow rate of hydrogen and raw materials, which is convenient for operators to control the reaction process.

[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. By replacing the traditional reactor with fixed bed technology, the reaction can be carried out continuously, the equipment volume can be reduced, and the reaction rate can be accelerated;

[0025] 2. Filling the bed with glass balls can increase the mixing uniformity of hydrogen and raw materials;

[0026] 3. An insulation layer is provided on the hydrogen storage tank and the outlet pipe to protect the operators. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
