[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, a method for stepwise separation and conversion of tar residue using the above-mentioned system for stepwise separation and conversion of tar residue comprises the following steps:
[0024] S1: Mix tar residue and petroleum ether at a ratio of 1 g:8 ml, add the mixture to an ultrasonic cleaner 1 and extract at a temperature of 20-40°C for 30 minutes. Add the extracted mixture to a solid-liquid separator 2 for solid-liquid separation to obtain an upper layer of extract and a lower layer of raffinate, and ensure that the upper layer of extract is colorless;
[0025] S2: The upper layer of the extract is pumped into a rotary evaporator I7 via a delivery pump I3, and the lower layer of the extract residue is pumped into a high-temperature reactor 8 via a delivery pump II4. The upper layer of the extract is heated and distilled in the rotary evaporator I7, condensed and recovered into petroleum ether, which is then discharged into the high-temperature reactor 8 and distilled and separated to obtain a preliminary enrichment in the tar residue;
[0026] S3: The recovered petroleum ether and the extract residue are thermally dissolved in a high-temperature reactor 8 at 90°C; at the same time, methanol, CS2, acetone, and an equal volume of a mixture of acetone and CS2 are sequentially added to the high-temperature reactor 8, and the hot-soluble residue is fully extracted at 65, 57, 47, and 60°C in sequence to obtain a hot-soluble extract, which is discharged into a collection tank I5;
[0027] S4: The delivery pump III 6 extracts the hot-melt extract from the collection tank I 5 and discharges it into the ultrasonic cleaning apparatus 1 , thereby realizing repeated recycling of the solvent in the high-temperature reactor 8 ;
[0028] S5: Weigh an appropriate amount of silica gel, discharge the preliminary enrichment in the tar residue into the forward chromatographic column, and then fill the silica gel into the forward chromatographic column. After that, add eluents to the forward chromatographic column in the following order: petroleum ether, a mixture of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate in a ratio of 4ml:1ml, a mixture of ethyl acetate and methanol in a ratio of 4ml:1ml, a mixture of ethyl acetate and methanol in a ratio of 1ml:1ml, and a mixture of ethyl acetate and methanol in a ratio of 1ml:4ml. The eluents are used as the mobile phase for gradient elution;
[0029] S6: After the gradient elution, the eluates of each level are sequentially enriched in the collection tank II 12. The eluates of each level obtained by the gradient elution are controlled by the flow control valve 11. Each time an eluent is added, an eluate is obtained. Afterwards, the eluates of each level obtained by the gradient elution are sequentially input into the reverse phase chromatography column through the delivery pump IV 13.
[0030] S7: Octadecyl bonded silica gel is used as the filler in the reverse phase chromatography column, and the same eluent as in the forward chromatography column is added in sequence for gradient elution and reverse elution.
