Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of caprolactam production technology, and in particular relates to a production device that couples an ammonia-containing gas to carry out an ammonium sulfate neutralization reaction. Background Technology
[0002] Caprolactam is produced from cyclohexanone oxime via the Beckmann rearrangement. Currently, there are two rearrangement technologies: gas-phase rearrangement and liquid-phase rearrangement. The liquid-phase rearrangement process is mature and stable, and the capacity of a single unit is much greater than that of the gas-phase method. At present, there are no gas-phase rearrangement units in China, and all use the liquid-phase rearrangement process. However, the liquid-phase Beckmann rearrangement process uses nicotinic acid as a catalyst, and after the reaction, ammonia is needed to neutralize the by-product ammonium sulfate. This step consumes a large amount of liquid ammonia, resulting in high production costs for caprolactam.
[0003] Therefore, how to reduce the consumption of liquid ammonia in the above-mentioned processes has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

On this basis, by setting up an ammonia desorption tower to desorb the waste liquid produced in the system, the desorbed ammonia gas enters the neutralization reaction vessel for neutralization, thereby reducing the amount of ammonia used and the difficulty of sewage treatment.

[0014] Preferably, the gas phase outlet of the water extraction tower is connected to the gas phase inlet of the oxime reactor.
[0015] This utility model has the following advantages: 1. This utility model replaces the traditional liquid ammonia feed with gaseous ammonia feed, thereby reducing the consumption of demineralized water in the system and reducing the amount of wastewater produced and discharged by the system.
[0016] 2. This utility model uses an ammonia desorption tower to desorb the waste liquid produced in the system. The desorbed ammonia gas then enters a neutralization reactor for neutralization, thereby reducing the amount of ammonia used and the difficulty of wastewater treatment.

The liquid phase outlet of the neutralization reactor 13 is connected to the ammonium sulfate treatment system 17. In this invention, the raw material liquid ammonia from the liquid ammonia storage tank 1 enters the liquid ammonia vaporizer 2. After vaporization, the gaseous ammonia is transported through the first three-way valve 20 to the oxime reactor 8 and the neutralization reactor 13, respectively. Cyclohexanone from the cyclohexanone tank 3, hydrogen peroxide from the hydrogen peroxide tank 4, and catalyst from the catalyst tank 6 are transported through corresponding pipelines into the oxime reactor 8 for oxime reaction. The crude cyclohexanone oxime solution after oxime reaction enters the solvent extraction tower 9 for extraction. The extracted gas phase enters the water extraction tower 10. The ammonia-containing solution at the bottom of the water extraction tower 10 enters the ammonia desorption tower 12. The desorbed ammonia gas enters the neutralization reactor... In the neutralization reactor 13, the sulfuric acid-containing heavy discharge liquid in the coarse heavy discharge tank 16 enters the neutralization reactor 13 through a pipeline.

The unreacted ammonia gas from the top of the neutralization reactor 13 enters the tail gas treatment unit. The separated caprolactam enters the caprolactam refining system 26. In the above process, the use of gaseous ammonia feed instead of traditional liquid ammonia can reduce the consumption of demineralized water and the amount of wastewater generated and discharged from the system. Furthermore, gaseous ammonia from the liquid ammonia vaporizer 2 and the ammonia desorption tower 12 can be used in the neutralization reactor 13 to achieve the characteristic of saving ammonia consumption.

Simultaneously, in conjunction with the ammonia desorption tower 12, it enables the full recovery of ammonia from the tail gas and waste liquid, thereby reducing ammonia usage and the difficulty of subsequent wastewater and waste gas treatment.

[0030] Furthermore, the gas phase outlet of the water extraction tower 10 is connected to the gas phase inlet of the oxime reactor 8.
[0031] The reaction principle of this invention is as follows: Its reaction principle: (1) Oxime reaction: NH3 + H2O2 + C6H 10 O (cyclohexanone) → C6H 10 NOH (cyclohexanone oxime) + 2H₂O + Q; (2) Ammonia dissolves in water: 2NH3 + H2O → 2NH4OH; (3) Synthesis of ammonium sulfate: 2NH3 + H2SO4 → (NH4)2SO 4。
[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In this utility model, the raw material liquid ammonia from the liquid ammonia storage tank 1 enters the liquid ammonia vaporizer 2. After the liquid ammonia is vaporized by the liquid ammonia vaporizer 2, the gaseous ammonia is transported to the oxime reactor 8 and the neutralization reaction vessel 13 through the first three-way valve 20 respectively. Cyclohexanone from the cyclohexanone tank 3, hydrogen peroxide from the hydrogen peroxide tank 4, and catalyst from the catalyst tank 6 are respectively transported into the oxime reactor 8 through corresponding pipelines for oxime reaction. The operating temperature of the oxime reactor 8 is 70~90℃, and its operating pressure is 0.1~1. The crude cyclohexanone oxime solution after the oxime reaction enters solvent extraction tower 9 for extraction. The operating temperature of solvent extraction tower 9 is 40~90℃, and the operating pressure is 0.02~1.0MPa. The bottom liquid of solvent extraction tower 9 is collected and sent to extractant recovery system 11 for recovery. The extracted gas phase enters water extraction tower 10 for water extraction. The operating temperature of water extraction tower 10 is 40~70℃, and the operating pressure is 0.01~0.3MPa. The gas phase of water extraction tower 10 is returned to oxime reactor 8, and water... The ammonia-containing solution at the bottom of extraction tower 10 enters ammonia desorption tower 12. The operating temperature of ammonia desorption tower 12 is 600~750℃, and the operating pressure is 0.01~0.2MPa. The aqueous solution at the bottom of ammonia desorption tower 12 is intermittently discharged to wastewater tank 18 according to the operating conditions and water quality of the unit. The desorbed ammonia gas enters neutralization reactor 13. The sulfuric acid-containing heavy discharge liquid in crude heavy discharge tank 16 enters neutralization reactor 13 through a pipeline. The crude ammonium sulfate at the bottom of neutralization reactor 13 enters ammonium sulfate treatment system 17. Neutralization reactor 13... Unreacted ammonia enters the tail gas treatment unit, and the separated caprolactam enters the caprolactam refining system 26. The neutralization reactor 13 operates at a temperature of 50~80℃ and a pressure of 0.01~0.1MPa. The gas phase from the oxime reactor 8 enters the scrubbing tower 14, where it comes into countercurrent contact with the extractant. The organic matter in the gas phase is recovered and then returned to the oxime reactor 8. The scrubbing tower 14 operates at a temperature of 30~50℃ and a pressure of 0.01~0.3MPa. The gas phase in the washing tower 14 and the gas phase in the neutralization reactor 13 both enter the water washing tower 15, where water is used to recover ammonia from the gas phase. The recovered liquid ammonia then enters the ammonia desorption tower 12 for desorption, and the tail gas is discharged through the gas venting pipe 27. In actual use, the ammonia in the ammonia desorption tower 12 can be reused in the circulating water washing tank 19 or sent to the wastewater tank 18 for further treatment, depending on the concentration of the bottom liquid. When reused, the bottom liquid of the ammonia desorption tower 12 enters the circulating water washing tank 19 and is sent to the water extraction tower 10 and the water washing tower 15 by the circulating water washing pump 24 to absorb ammonia. After ammonia absorption, the liquid phase re-enters the ammonia desorption tower 12 for desorption, while the gas phase enters the neutralization reactor 13, and the liquid phase can be circulated.This invention recovers incompletely reacted ammonia from the ammonia oxime reaction process in a caprolactam unit. After absorption and desorption, the ammonia is introduced into a neutralization reactor 13 for neutralization, removing excess sulfuric acid from the rearrangement liquid and achieving the purpose of separating caprolactam. The tail gas of the entire system is discharged in compliance with standards after ammonia removal. This not only solves the environmental protection problem of ammonia-containing tail gas from caprolactam units, but also reduces the consumption of liquid ammonia raw materials in the unit and lowers the production costs of caprolactam production enterprises.
