Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of amination fixed bed reaction, in particular to amination fixed bed reaction equipment. Background Art
[0002] Amination fixed bed reaction equipment is a device used for the industrial synthesis of organic amine compounds. Its principle is to allow substrates containing hydroxyl and carbonyl groups to react with liquid ammonia or compounds containing amino functional groups through a catalyst in a fixed bed to generate amine compounds.
[0003] Currently, fixed-bed catalysts are typically highly efficient amination catalysts. Typically, the catalyst is first loaded into a fixed-bed reactor and activated by introducing hydrogen at high temperature before being put into formal use. The hydrogen activation method generally involves filling the reactor with an appropriate amount of hydrogen, heating it to the activation temperature for a period of time, and then venting the hydrogen, repeating this process several times. However, the inventors have discovered in actual applications that a large amount of hydrogen needs to be continuously replenished during the hydrogen activation period, resulting in significant costs. Therefore, the inventors have proposed a fixed-bed amination reaction apparatus. Utility Model Content

[0011] A gas-liquid separator, the gas-liquid separator being connected to the cold trap and used for separating hydrogen in different phases;
[0012] A compressor, connected to the gas-liquid separator, and used for compressing hydrogen;
[0013] A drying tower is connected to the compressor and the plate heat exchanger. The drying tower is used to remove moisture from the hydrogen. In actual application, the tail gas (containing unreacted hydrogen) discharged from the output end of the fixed bed reactor is subjected to heat exchange through the plate heat exchanger, the cold trap is used to separate and collect the gas and liquid phases of hydrogen, the gas-liquid separator is used to separate the hydrogen in different phases, the compressor is used to compress the hydrogen, and the drying tower is used to remove moisture from the hydrogen. The hydrogen with moisture removed is then transported back to the catalyst fixed bed layer in the fixed bed reactor through the plate heat exchanger for recycling, so as to achieve the effect of recycling the unreacted hydrogen in the tail gas, thereby facilitating the recycling of the hydrogen in the tail gas.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the compressor is a reciprocating compressor. By setting the inlet pressure of the compressor higher than the atmospheric pressure, air can be prevented from entering the recovery mechanism and safety risks can be avoided.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the drying tower is connected to the venting channel and is internally provided with an adsorbent for dehydration to facilitate the discharge of tail gas generated by the drying tower.

[0018] 1. The amination fixed-bed reaction equipment realizes the recovery of unreacted hydrogen in the tail gas (containing unreacted hydrogen) discharged from the output end of the fixed-bed reactor by passing the tail gas (containing unreacted hydrogen) through a plate heat exchanger, separating and collecting gaseous and liquid hydrogen through a cold trap, separating hydrogen in different phases through a gas-liquid separator, compressing the hydrogen through a compressor, and removing moisture from the hydrogen through a drying tower. The dehydrated hydrogen is then transported back to the catalyst fixed bed layer in the fixed-bed reactor through the plate heat exchanger for recycling, thereby achieving the effect of recycling unreacted hydrogen in the tail gas, thereby facilitating the recovery of hydrogen in the tail gas.
