Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of methanol distillation towers in the petrochemical industry, and particularly relates to a methanol distillation tower with a residual material recovery function. Background Art

[0002] In the petrochemical industry, methanol distillation requires the use of a methanol distillation tower to improve the degree of methanol distillation. Methanol feedstock often contains impurities, and common methanol distillation towers are often not equipped with a corresponding residual material recovery structure. Some impurities in the methanol feedstock cannot be vaporized and liquefied in the distillation tower. The residual material may contain a variety of organic matter, by-products, impurities, unreacted raw materials, and solvents. The composition is complex and difficult to separate.

[0003] Secondly, the accumulation of impurities in the residual material, such as heavy materials, byproducts, or unreacted materials, can clog the equipment, reduce tower efficiency, and affect the stable operation of the system if not removed promptly. The residual material will circulate with the liquid phase and may adhere to the pipe walls during multiple circulations, causing certain blockages in the pipe fittings, potentially causing operational failures in the methanol distillation tower and increasing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning.

[0004] In summary, the methanol distillation tower without the residual material recovery function has some problems in use, so it is hoped to propose a new structure to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content
