DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following embodiments are used to further describe the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Example
[0022] A butyl acrylate production wastewater recovery and treatment system comprises an alcohol recovery device 2 and a neutralization system 3, wherein the alcohol recovery device 2 is connected to the neutralization system 3, the multi-effect evaporation device 4 is connected to the neutralization system 3, and the esterification reaction wastewater tank 1 is connected to the alcohol recovery device 2. Wastewater from the alcohol recovery device 2 and the multi-effect evaporation device 4 is discharged to a wastewater discharge area 5 through a pipeline.
[0023] The alcohol recovery device 2 includes: an alcohol recovery kettle 21, a stripping tower 22, a condenser 23, a distillation tower 24, and a first wastewater temporary storage tank 25 connected in sequence. The stripping tower 22 and the distillation tower 24 are also commonly connected to a venting trap 26, and the condenser 23 is also separately connected to the first wastewater temporary storage tank 25.
[0024] The neutralization system 3 includes: an alkali adjustment reaction tank 31, an alkali adjustment buffer tank 32, a neutralization reactor 33, a high-efficiency phase separator 34, and a second wastewater temporary storage tank 35, which are connected in sequence. The high-efficiency phase separator is also connected to an incinerator 36.
[0025] The multi-effect evaporation device 4 is sequentially connected with a mixer 41, an acid adjustment reactor 42, an acid adjustment buffer tank 43, a decarbonization tower 44, an alkali adjustment reactor 45, an alkali adjustment buffer tank 46, a first-effect evaporation 47, a second-effect evaporation 48, a third-effect evaporation 49, a desalination unit 410, and a condensation tank 411.
[0026] The wastewater from the esterification reaction is first stored in the esterification reaction wastewater tank 1 and then transferred to the alcohol recovery device 2 via a pipeline for separation and purification of the alcohol. Specifically, the esterification reaction wastewater first enters the alcohol recovery kettle 21, where a large amount of butanol and a small amount of oil and water are heated and evaporated, and then enter the stripping tower 22 for separation. The mixed solution of the solute butanol and a small amount of butyl acrylate obtained from the rough separation in the stripping tower 22 and the solvent enter the condenser 23 in sequence, and the discharged waste gas enters the vent trap 26. After the solvent is condensed, it directly enters the first wastewater temporary storage tank 25. The butanol and butyl acrylate are condensed and enter the distillation tower 24 for further separation. The separated butanol flows through a pipeline to the esterification reaction stage 6, the separated butyl acrylate flows through a pipeline to the product tank 7, and the distillation wastewater flows to the first wastewater temporary storage tank 25.
[0027] The separated alcohol is used as a reactant to continue to participate in the esterification reaction 6. Part of the wastewater generated by the alcohol recovery device 2 enters the neutralization system 3. The wastewater that meets the emission standards is directly discharged into the wastewater discharge area 5. The neutralization system 3 performs the first step of treatment on the wastewater, and then transfers it to the multi-effect evaporation device 4 for further treatment. The treated wastewater is discharged into the wastewater discharge area 5.
[0028] After the neutralization system 3 absorbs a small amount of wastewater from the alcohol recovery device 2, its pH is still relatively high. It needs to be adjusted to less than 8 in the alkali adjustment reaction tank 31, and then temporarily stored in the alkali adjustment buffer tank 32. It enters the neutralization reactor 33 to adjust the pH to neutral, and then enters the high-efficiency phase separator 34. The high-efficiency phase separator 34 flows the oil phase formed by the saponification reaction of alkali and oil to the incinerator 8, and the remaining water phase containing a large amount of salt enters the second wastewater temporary storage tank 35.
[0029] The treatment process of the multi-effect evaporation device 4 is as follows: first, the wastewater in the second wastewater temporary storage tank 35 enters the mixer 41, is mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid, and then transferred to the acid adjustment reactor 42. After the adjustment is completed, the wastewater enters the acid adjustment buffer tank 43, and then is transferred to the decarbonization tower 44. After decarbonization, it enters the alkali adjustment reactor 45 to adjust the pH. After completion, it enters the alkali adjustment buffer tank 46. The wastewater in the alkali adjustment buffer tank directly enters the multi-effect evaporation device. After the multi-effect evaporation treatment, it is desalinated by the desalination unit 410. Finally, the condensate tank 411 collects the treated wastewater and discharges it into the wastewater discharge area 5.
[0030] After treatment in alcohol recovery unit 2, the COD value of the wastewater generated by the esterification reaction is reduced to below 5000, and the pH of the wastewater is neutral, allowing it to partially replace the water used in neutralization system 3. After treatment in multi-effect evaporation unit 4, the neutralized wastewater has a salt content of approximately 200-300 mg / L and a COD value of less than 100 mg / L, allowing it to be directly discharged to wastewater discharge area 5.
[0031] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, making several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principles of the present invention should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
