Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a production line system that can realize the continuous degradation of polyethylene, belonging to the technical field of organic chemistry. BACKGROUND
[0002] Polyethylene plastic is the most common and widely used synthetic polymer plastic in modern life, and it plays an important role in agriculture, packaging, construction, automobiles and even aerospace. However, because the molecular chain of polyethylene is composed of extremely stable saturated C-C bonds and C-H bonds, it has relatively inert chemical properties, so it is difficult to degrade without special treatment. As a result, most polyethylene plastic waste is currently buried, discarded as "white pollution", and a small number is incinerated or physically recycled, while the proportion of chemical recycling is very small.
[0003] In addition, traditional chemical recycling methods usually involve thermal cracking, hydrocracking or oxidative cracking of polyethylene plastic at high temperatures. These methods require very high energy consumption or the use of environmentally unfriendly chemicals, and the resulting product components are complex and have low utilization value. Therefore, finding a polyethylene degradation technology that is mild in conditions, has good selectivity, produces fewer by-products, has high reaction conversion rate, produces products with high reuse value, is environmentally friendly, and is suitable for industrialization, has always been a technical problem that needs to be solved in the field.
[0004] A research group led by Huang Zheng of the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has disclosed in Chinese Patent No. 201410415203.7 a method for degrading polyethylene into liquid fuel or / and polyethylene wax by multiple cross-metathesis reactions between C2-C10 alkanes and polyethylene in the presence of an alkane dehydrogenation catalyst and an olefin metathesis catalyst. Although this patent technology can achieve the mild and controllable degradation and recycling of different types of polyethylene such as HDPE, LLDPE and LDPE, and has mild reaction conditions, it can overcome the shortcomings of traditional polyethylene degradation methods such as high reaction temperature, complex products and low product application value. However, the research group found in subsequent large-scale experiments that the reaction system has a very high viscosity, and if traditional tank reactors are used, there are problems such as non-uniform reaction, low degradation efficiency, and difficulty in separating the catalyst from the material, making it difficult to achieve large-scale application. In addition, intermittent reaction operations usually require multiple additions and removals of reactants, catalysts and solvents, which not only increases the complexity of the operation and reduces the production efficiency, but also may cause fluctuations in reaction conditions, thereby affecting the quality and yield of the product, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale industrial production.
