DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art may think of other obvious variations.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a solvent separation device for acrylic acid production includes a bottom plate 1, a distillation tower 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1, a first support plate 3 and a second support plate 4 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the distillation tower 2, and the second support plate 4 is located below the first support plate 3, and the upper surfaces of the first support plate 3 and the second support plate 4 are both provided with a plurality of through grooves 5, and the plurality of through grooves 5 are distributed around the center line of the distillation tower 2, an observation tube 6 is provided between the first support plate 3 and the second support plate 4, and a staff member can observe the solvent separation status in the distillation tower 2 through the observation tube 6, and the observation tube 6 is fixedly connected to the distillation tower 2, a heat preservation chamber 7 is provided inside the distillation tower 2, and a heating component 8 is provided on the outer side of the distillation tower 2, and a heating component 8 is provided on the outer side of the distillation tower 2. Component 8 is connected to the insulation chamber 7 through an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. When acrylic acid is prepared by redox reaction, a mixed liquid of acrylic acid, water and acetic acid is produced. The distillation tower 2 accommodates the mixed liquid. During the separation of the mixed liquid, since the molar mass of acrylic acid is greater than the molar mass of water and acetic acid, acrylic acid is located at the lower end of the distillation tower 2, and water and acetic acid are located above the acrylic acid. The water flow in the insulation chamber 7 heats the mixed liquid to increase the separation speed of the mixed liquid. At the same time, the heating component 8 maintains the temperature of the water flow in the insulation chamber 7, thereby maintaining the liquid temperature in the distillation tower 2. A temperature sensor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the distillation tower 2 to facilitate the staff to monitor the temperature in the distillation tower 2 in real time.

[0023] like Figure 4As shown, a first discharge pipe 9 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom surface of the bottom plate 1, and the first discharge pipe 9 is connected to the distillation tower 2, the outer surface of the distillation tower 2 corresponding to the second support plate 4 is connected to the second discharge pipe 10, and the outer surface of the distillation tower 2 corresponding to the first support plate 3 is connected to the feed pipe 11. Acrylic acid leaves the equipment through the first discharge pipe 9, and the remaining liquid leaves the equipment through the second discharge pipe 10, and the mixed liquid enters the distillation tower 2 through the feed pipe 11.

[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, the heating component 8 includes a heating box 801, a spiral plate 802 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the heating box 801, a heating film 803 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the spiral plate 802, an air outlet pipe 804 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the heating box 801 corresponding to the spiral plate 802, the air outlet pipe 804 is connected to the heating box 801, and a one-way valve 805 is fixedly installed inside the air outlet pipe 804, the water outlet pipe extends to the inside of the heating box 801, the water inlet pipe is connected to the side of the heating box 801, the water flows into the heating box 801 through the water inlet pipe, the spiral plate 802 increases the contact area between the heating film 803 and the water flow, the gas generated by heating leaves the equipment through the air outlet pipe 804, and the one-way valve 805 ensures that external gas does not enter the heating box 801, and the water outlet pipe is extended to under the liquid of the heating box 801 to prevent the gas from entering the insulation chamber 7.

[0025] like Figure 6 As shown, a connecting plate 12 is fixedly installed inside the water outlet pipe, a chamber 13 is opened inside the connecting plate 12, and a first gear 14 and a second gear 15 are rotatably installed on the inner wall of the chamber 13. The first gear 14 is meshingly connected with the second gear 15. The first gear 14 is connected to an external power source. The first gear 14 rotates to make the second gear 15 rotate at a high speed. On one side where the first gear 14 and the second gear 15 are disengaged from the meshing, the sealed volume gradually increases to form a local vacuum. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, water flows through the first gear 14 and the second gear 15 at a high speed.

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of support rods 16 are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 1. The plurality of support rods 16 are distributed circumferentially about the center line of the base plate 1. The support rods 16 serve as connectors between the base plate 1 and the ground or the installation platform, providing a stable support foundation for the entire device. The circumferentially distributed support rods 16 form a uniform support network, which enhances the lateral displacement resistance of the base plate 1 and the stability of the overall structure. At the same time, the support rods 16 facilitate the first discharge pipe 9 to transport materials.

[0027] like Figure 4As shown, a regular pile 17 is arranged above the first support plate 3. The regular pile 17 is usually composed of specific materials, which can effectively promote the physical separation process in the mixed liquid. The regular pile 17 is arranged above the first support plate 3, so that the mixed liquid can fully contact with the pile when flowing through this area, thereby further improving the separation efficiency. The structural design of the regular pile 17 helps to optimize the distribution and flow path of the fluid. Through the action of the regular pile 17, impurities or unnecessary components in the mixed liquid can be more effectively removed, thereby improving the purity and quality of the final product. The regular pile 17 can also protect the internal structure of the distillation tower 2. A random packing is arranged above the second support plate 4 (this is the prior art and will not be described in detail here).

[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a glass plate 18 is fixedly installed at one end of the observation tube 6 away from the distillation tower 2, and the material of the glass plate 18 is high borosilicate. The glass plate 18 serves as the terminal of the observation tube 6 and provides a clear observation window for the operator. Through this window, the reaction conditions, liquid level changes and fluid flow conditions inside the distillation tower 2 can be visually observed, so as to facilitate real-time monitoring and adjustment of the production process. High borosilicate glass has excellent high temperature resistance and good resistance to most chemical substances. It is not easy to react chemically with the reactants or products inside the distillation tower 2, thereby ensuring the clarity and accuracy of the observation window. Through the arrangement of the observation tube 6 and the high borosilicate glass plate 18, the operator can promptly discover abnormal conditions inside the distillation tower 2.

[0029] Working principle: The heating film in the heating component 8 heats the water flow in the heating box 801, and at the same time, the first gear 14 and the second gear 15 rotate at high speed, so that the water flow in the heating component 8 enters the insulation chamber 7. When the temperature in the distillation tower 2 reaches a certain level, the material enters the distillation tower 2 through the feed pipe 11, and the material first contacts with the regular pile 17. The regular pile 17 can effectively promote the physical separation process in the mixed liquid. After the mixed liquid is separated, acrylic acid is located in the lower layer of the liquid, and water and acetic acid are located in the upper layer of the liquid. Acrylic acid leaves the equipment through the first discharge pipe 9, and water and acetic acid leave the equipment through the second discharge pipe 10.

[0030] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the specification only describe the principles of the utility model. The utility model may be subject to various changes and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. These changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection claimed by the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
