[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This invention discloses a production apparatus for isothiazolinone, comprising a synthesis vessel. The inlet of the synthesis vessel is connected via pipes to a 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol tank, a carbon disulfide tank, and a sodium hydroxide solution tank. The outlet of the synthesis vessel is connected via pipes to a hydrolysis vessel. The inlet of the hydrolysis vessel is connected via pipes to a hydrochloric acid solution tank, and the outlet of the hydrolysis vessel is connected via pipes to a cyclization vessel. The inlet of the cyclization vessel is connected via pipes to a liquid chlorine tank. The outlet of the cyclization vessel is connected via pipes to a distillation vessel, and the bottom outlet of the distillation vessel is connected via pipes to a finished product tank. 2-Methyl-2,4-pentanediol reacts with carbon disulfide under alkaline conditions to generate dithiocarbonate, which is then acid-hydrolyzed to obtain the intermediate 2-methyl-2,4-pentanedithiol. This intermediate is then oxidatively cyclized with liquid chlorine at low temperature, introducing chlorine atoms. The resulting reaction mixture is purified by distillation to obtain the isothiazolinone product. This method is environmentally friendly, safe, and has a high product yield, reducing production costs.
[0016] The top gaseous outlet of the distillation vessel of this invention is connected to a recovery tank via a pipeline, and the outlet of the recovery tank is connected to the synthesis vessel via a pipeline. The gaseous substances generated during distillation mainly contain unreacted raw materials and some recoverable components such as solvents. By connecting the gaseous outlet to the recovery tank, these recoverable substances can be effectively collected. The recovery tank then returns these substances to the synthesis vessel, realizing the recycling of raw materials, reducing production costs, and minimizing resource waste. Simultaneously, this recycling method also helps to improve the utilization rate of raw materials.
[0017] The bottom outlet of the distillation vessel is connected to an extraction tank via a pipe. The inlet of the extraction tank is connected to an ethyl acetate tank via a pipe. The outlet of the extraction tank is connected to a crystallization tank via a pipe. The inlet of the crystallization tank is connected to a hexane tank via a pipe. The outlet of the crystallization tank is connected to a filtration tank via a pipe. The solid phase outlet of the filtration tank is connected to the finished product tank. The distilled product is further extracted in the extraction tank. Utilizing the selective solubility of isothiazolinones in ethyl acetate, impurities in the product can be separated more effectively, improving product purity. The extracted solution enters the crystallization tank, where hexane is added to adjust the solubility of the solution, promoting the crystallization of isothiazolinones. This process further purifies the product. The outlet of the crystallization tank is connected to the filtration tank. Through filtration, the crystals are separated from the mother liquor, and the solid phase is directly connected to the finished product tank. This completes the entire process from reaction to final purification, greatly improving the purity and quality of the product and meeting the market demand for high-quality isothiazolinone products.
[0018] The solid phase outlet of the filtration tank is connected to a dryer, and the outlet of the dryer is connected to the finished product tank. The solid product obtained after filtration still contains a small amount of solvent and other moisture. By connecting to the dryer, the product can be dried to remove residual moisture and solvent, further improving the purity and stability of the product. The dried product directly enters the finished product tank, ensuring that the quality of the final product meets the standards, extending the product's shelf life, and enhancing its competitiveness in the market.
[0019] The inlet of the filtration tank is connected to the n-hexane tank via a pipeline. During filtration, n-hexane can be used to wash the filter cake. By connecting the n-hexane tank to the inlet of the filtration tank, the amount of n-hexane added and the washing operation can be easily controlled. Hexane washing can effectively remove residual impurities and mother liquor from the surface of the filter cake, further improving the purity of the product. This design makes the washing operation more convenient and efficient, helping to improve product quality and yield.
[0020] The liquid phase outlet of the filtration tank is connected to a distillation tank via a pipeline. The top gas phase outlet of the distillation tank is connected to an ethyl acetate recovery tank and a hexane recovery tank via pipelines. The liquid phase after filtration mainly contains solvents such as ethyl acetate and hexane, as well as a small amount of incompletely separated impurities. By connecting the liquid phase outlet to the distillation tank, the solvents such as ethyl acetate and hexane can be separated by distillation. The separately connected ethyl acetate recovery tank and hexane recovery tank enable the recycling of these two solvents. The recovered solvents can be recycled for extraction and crystallization steps, reducing production costs, minimizing resource waste, and reducing environmental pollution, which aligns with the production principles of green chemistry.
[0021] The outlet of the ethyl acetate recovery tank is connected to a first adsorption tank via a pipeline, and the outlet of the first adsorption tank is connected to the ethyl acetate tank via a pipeline. The recovered ethyl acetate may still contain trace impurities, which may affect its effectiveness in subsequent extraction processes. By using the first adsorption tank, the impurities are adsorbed by the adsorbent, further purifying the recovered ethyl acetate. The purified ethyl acetate is then returned to the ethyl acetate tank for a new round of extraction, ensuring the purity of ethyl acetate during extraction, thereby improving extraction efficiency and product quality, extending solvent lifespan, and reducing production costs.
[0022] The outlet of the hexane recovery tank is connected to a second adsorption tank via a pipeline, and the outlet of the second adsorption tank is connected to the hexane tank via a pipeline. Adsorption purification is performed in the second adsorption tank. During crystallization and other processes, hexane may be contaminated with impurities; the second adsorption tank effectively removes these impurities, improving the purity of the hexane. The purified hexane is returned to the hexane tank and can be used for further crystallization and washing operations, ensuring the quality stability of hexane during production, helping to improve the crystallization effect and purity of the product, reducing production costs, and increasing production efficiency.
