Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of chemical industry especially relates to a kind of automatic boron trifluoride etherate complex production device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of chemical industry, boron trifluoride etherate complex (BF3·OEt2) is an important Lewis acid catalyst, widely used in organic synthesis reactions, such as esterification, acylation, polymerization and cyclization processes, especially in fine chemical and pharmaceutical intermediates production.

[0003] Boron trifluoride etherate complex (BF3·OEt2) is an important chemical reagent, widely used in organic synthesis, catalysis and other fields. Boron trifluoride (BF3) and methyl ether (OEt2) occur complexation in the reaction kettle to form boron trifluoride etherate complex (BF3·OEt2). This process requires precise control of reaction conditions to ensure complexing efficiency and product quality.

[0004] An automatic boron trifluoride etherate complex production device combines precise reaction control technology and intelligent process management, using advanced gas-liquid reactors, efficient separation systems and fully enclosed operation design, which not only significantly improves production efficiency and product quality, but also effectively reduces the operation risk of hazardous chemicals and waste emissions, becoming an important technical support for green chemical industry.

[0005] However, the existing technology has the following deficiencies and shortcomings in the production of boron trifluoride etherate complex: first, the reaction efficiency of gaseous boron trifluoride and liquid methyl ether is low, and traditional reaction kettles usually rely only on mechanical stirring for mixing, with limited gas-liquid interface mass transfer efficiency, resulting in slow reaction speed and low conversion rate; secondly, in the recovery stage of the product, free boron trifluoride is difficult to separate completely, which limits the purity of the product and may cause secondary pollution. At the same time, the existing filter device is complex to replace, which increases the maintenance cost and operation difficulty, reduces the continuity and economy of production.

[0006] To solve the above problems, an automatic boron trifluoride etherate complex production device is proposed. INVENTION CONTENTS

[0007] To make up for the above shortcomings, the utility model provides an automatic boron trifluoride etherate complex production device, aiming to solve the problems of low reaction efficiency, insufficient product purity and complex operation and maintenance of existing automatic boron trifluoride etherate complex production devices.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automated boron trifluoride methyl ether complex production device, comprising a reaction vessel, a water pump one, a condenser tower, and a distillation tower. A motor is installed on the top of the reaction vessel, and a stirring rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A methyl ether tank is installed on one side of the reaction vessel, and the top of the methyl ether tank is connected to the interior of the reaction vessel through a pipe. An air inlet pipe is installed on the other side of the reaction vessel. An auxiliary stirring assembly is installed at the bottom inner side of the reaction vessel. The reaction vessel and the water pump one are connected through a liquid outlet pipe, and a quick-release assembly is installed on the outer side of the liquid outlet pipe. The output end of the water pump one is connected to the condenser tower through a pipe, and the condenser tower and the distillation tower are connected through a water pump two.

[0009] The auxiliary stirring assembly includes a fixed plate, a driver is installed inside the fixed plate, an ultrasonic vibration rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the driver, and a cooling pipe is installed on the outside of the ultrasonic vibration rod.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The interior of the dimethyl ether tank is under high pressure, and a high-pressure nozzle is installed at the end of the pipe at the output end of the dimethyl ether tank.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The air intake pipe is connected to a boron trifluoride gas cylinder.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The condenser is used to separate boron trifluoride from the product, and the distillation column is used to separate dimethyl ether from the product.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the reactor.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] The quick-release assembly includes a card box, with a pin slidably connected inside the card box, a spring sleeved on the outside of the pin, a limit plate fixedly connected to the middle of the pin, and a lever provided on the top of the card box.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] The bottom of the paddle passes through the side wall of the card box and abuts against the top of the limiting plate, which is slidably connected inside the card box.

[0022] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0023] The card box is fixed to the outside of the liquid outlet pipe, and the outside of the pin passes through the side wall of the card box and the liquid outlet pipe and is inserted into the interior of the filter plate.

[0024] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. In this invention, an ultrasonic vibrating rod is installed in the reaction vessel and combined with a traditional stirring rod. This fully utilizes the cavitation effect of ultrasound and the mixing effect of mechanical stirring to significantly enhance the interfacial contact between gaseous boron trifluoride and liquid dimethyl ether. Ultrasonic vibration promotes rapid bubble collapse, while the stirring rod accelerates liquid convection. The synergistic effect of these two factors effectively improves the gas-liquid mass transfer efficiency and reaction rate, thereby significantly shortening the reaction time.

[0026] 2. In this invention, during the recovery of boron trifluoride methyl ether complex, excess boron trifluoride in the reaction mixture is adsorbed by an activated carbon filter plate. Activated carbon, with its high adsorption capacity, reduces the residue of free boron trifluoride, improving product purity. Simultaneously, the filter plate employs a snap-on fixing design, facilitating quick disassembly and replacement, thereby reducing maintenance difficulty and downtime, further enhancing the operating efficiency and convenience of the device.

[0027] 3. In this invention, during the recovery stage of the boron trifluoride methyl ether complex, although the activated carbon filter plate can initially adsorb excess boron trifluoride, it still cannot completely separate the residual boron trifluoride and methyl ether. Therefore, a combined action of a condenser and a distillation column is further introduced. The condenser uses temperature gradient cooling to partially liquefy the highly volatile boron trifluoride and methyl ether gases, achieving initial separation. Subsequently, the distillation column utilizes the boiling point difference between the two to distill the condensed product, thoroughly removing the residual boron trifluoride and methyl ether, ensuring high product purity, and simultaneously recovering these two substances for recycling, further improving production economy and environmental friendliness.
