Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of chemical reaction apparatus, and in particular to a reaction apparatus for continuous liquid-phase conversion of R113. Background Technology

[0002] R113 is a compound regulated by the Montreal Protocol, and its diffusion in the environment is prohibited. However, R113a is an industrially valuable product that can be used to prepare various compounds. R113 is converted to R113a through catalytic isomerization reactions, and the catalysts are generally aluminum fluoride chloride or other halides.

[0003] There are several existing processes for the isomerization reaction of R113, including gas-phase continuous reaction, intermittent liquid-phase reaction, and liquid-phase continuous reaction. The gas-phase continuous reaction process has high energy consumption because it requires the reaction to be carried out in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment of 200-300℃. The intermittent liquid-phase reaction process involves mixing a certain volume of R113 liquid with a catalyst and reacting it at a temperature of 40-80℃. Continuous stirring is required within the reaction vessel. Once a certain conversion rate is achieved, the temperature is lowered to room temperature and allowed to stand for a period of time, allowing R113a and the catalyst to settle and separate. Finally, the upper clear liquid material, free of catalyst, is discharged from the reactor, while the lower R113a material and all the catalyst remain in the reactor. The next batch of material is then heated for further reaction. However, due to the continuous heating and cooling of R113, high-boiling-point byproducts solidify after cooling, coating the catalyst molecules and hindering sufficient contact between the catalyst and R113 molecules, thus reducing the catalyst's effectiveness in subsequent uses. The structure of this reaction vessel is illustrated in the utility model patent application number 202020224011.9, which discloses "A High-Efficiency and Safe Isomerization Reactor."

[0004] The liquid-phase continuous reaction process operates at a reaction temperature of 40-90℃ and a pressure range of 0.1-0.5 MPa within the reaction apparatus. It involves continuous feeding and discharging of materials simultaneously, significantly increasing the yield. The R113 / R113a ratio in the crude product is less than 0.001. Therefore, developing a reaction apparatus suitable for the liquid-phase continuous reaction process of R113 is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] To accommodate the continuous liquid-phase reaction process of R113, this application provides a reaction apparatus for the continuous liquid-phase conversion of R113.

[0025] 2. By adding a secondary reactor connected to the primary filter assembly, the unconverted R113 can be further converted in the second reaction chamber of the secondary reactor and finally filtered by the secondary filter assembly before being transported to the crude product tank, thereby improving the conversion rate of R113a. In addition, a jacket is also set in the secondary reactor, and by introducing a heat medium into the jacket, the secondary conversion reaction of R113 can be carried out within a certain temperature range, thereby improving the conversion rate.

The two can achieve axial separation while reducing relative movement in the circumferential direction and improving installation stability. Attached Figure Description

The catalyst feeding port 13 is located above the vessel body 11. In this embodiment, the crude product discharge port 14 is located above the vessel body 11. A primary filter assembly 3 is installed inside the crude product discharge port 14. The primary filter assembly 3 is installed vertically in the first reaction chamber 111, and one end of the primary filter assembly 3 extends to the lower part of the upper seal of the vessel body 11 to ensure that a portion of it is always immersed below the liquid surface in the first reaction chamber 111. The other end of the primary filter assembly 3 is connected to the secondary reactor 4 through the vacuum tube 5. The converted and filtered R113a is transported to the secondary reactor 4 for secondary conversion reaction through the system pressure difference. One end of the secondary reactor 4 is connected to the crude product tank of R113a. Of course, in order to improve the efficiency of the transport, a suction pump can be installed on the vacuum tube 5.

[0038] The reactor 1 is also equipped with a stirring assembly, which includes a motor 2 and a stirring paddle 21 connected to the motor 2. The stirring paddle 21 extends into the first reactor 1.

[0041] The filter screen 32 is a metal filter screen, including a stepped screen section 321, a guide section 322, and a second mounting flange 323. The screen section 321 has a number of filter holes, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the first feed hole 3112. The guide section 322 is connected to one side of the screen section 321 by welding. At the same time, the screen section 321 is wrapped around the filter section 311, the guide section 322 is sleeved on the connecting section 312, and the second mounting flange 323 abuts against one side of the first mounting flange 313 to restrict the axial movement of the entire filter screen 32 relative to the first frame 31 to one side.

[0042] To limit the circumferential movement of the filter screen 32 relative to the first frame 31, an axially extending guide groove 3121 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the connecting section 312. The filter screen 32 is provided with a protruding rib 3221 on the inner peripheral wall of the guide section 322. The protruding rib 3221 is formed by a pressing process. The protruding rib 3221 can be provided in the guide groove 3121 and can slide axially.

[0043] When the primary filter assembly 3 is connected to the coarse product outlet 14, the first mounting flange 313 and the second mounting flange 323 are connected to the connecting flange on the coarse product outlet 14 by fasteners. One end of the vacuum tube 5 is connected to the first mounting flange 313. In order to achieve a tight connection between the primary filter assembly 3 and the coarse product outlet 14, a sealing ring is provided between the connecting flange of the primary filter assembly 3 and the coarse product outlet 14.

[0044] See Figure 5 The secondary reactor 4 includes a sleeve 41, a jacket 44, and a secondary filter assembly. The sleeve 41 is disposed within the jacket 44, with a gap between them forming a cavity 441. A second reaction chamber 411 is located within the sleeve 41, containing a catalyst. One end of the sleeve 41 is connected to a vacuum tube 5, and the secondary filter assembly is installed at the other end of the sleeve 41. The secondary filter assembly includes a second frame 42 and a third mounting flange 43 connected to the second frame 42. The second frame 42 has a second separation channel and several second feed holes 421 communicating with the second separation channel. The second feed holes 421 communicate with the second reaction chamber 411. The third mounting flange 43 is connected to the outer wall of one end of the second frame 42 and is also connected to a connecting flange at one end of the sleeve 41.

[0045] One end of the second frame 42 extends from the second reaction chamber 411 and connects to the crude product tank of R113a via a pipe. A suction pump can also be installed on the pipe to improve the conveying efficiency. In addition, in order to improve the conversion rate of the secondary conversion reaction, the jacket 44 is also provided with a heat medium inlet pipe 45 and a heat medium outlet pipe 46, which connect to the jacket cavity 441. In this embodiment, hot water is used as the heat medium, and the temperature in the jacket cavity 441 is kept between 65-80°C.

[0046] When this reaction device is working, R113 raw material is continuously fed into the first reaction chamber 111 under the action of the delivery pump. The material conversion reaction continues. The converted R113a enters the primary filter component 3 and then enters the second reactor. The unconverted R113 is further converted in the second reactor and finally transported to the crude product tank. It should be noted that R113a can pass through both the primary filter component 3 and the secondary filter component under the action of pressure difference. The catalyst itself is granular and has a certain permeation gap.

[0047] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
