Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of organic chemical production technology, specifically relating to a chemical fluorosulfonic acid preparation and tail gas recovery system. Background Technology
[0002] Fluorosulfonic acid, as an important chemical raw material, is widely used in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical manufacturing, pesticide production, and fine chemicals. Its unique chemical properties make it a key catalyst and reagent in many reactions. However, traditional fluorosulfonic acid preparation processes have many problems, limiting its wider application and development. In traditional processes, fluorosulfonic acid is usually synthesized by reacting anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (HF) with chlorosulfonic acid (ClSO3H).
[0003] This process involves two highly corrosive and toxic chemicals, and the alternating endothermic and exothermic reactions make precise temperature control difficult. This unstable temperature condition increases operational complexity and increases the risk of explosions or burns, posing a serious threat to operator safety. Furthermore, hydrogen chloride (HCl), a byproduct of fluorosulfonic acid production, is often not completely absorbed. Untreated hydrogen chloride emissions into the environment cause severe air pollution, corrode surrounding buildings and equipment, and negatively impact human health. Long-term exposure to high concentrations of hydrogen chloride can lead to respiratory illnesses and other health problems; therefore, effectively treating these exhaust gases is a pressing issue. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a system for preparing chemical-grade fluorosulfonic acid and recovering its tail gas, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] Therefore, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A chemical fluorosulfonic acid preparation and tail gas recovery system includes a raw material storage tank, a reaction vessel, a reflux tower, a falling film absorber, a water washing tower, an alkali washing tower, and related valves, instruments, and equipment.
[0006] The raw material storage tanks include an anhydrous hydrogen fluoride storage tank and an anhydrous chlorosulfonic acid storage tank, both constructed of corrosion-resistant metal and meeting relevant pressure vessel requirements. The bottom of the anhydrous hydrogen fluoride storage tank is connected to a hydrogen fluoride metering pump via pipeline, with a flow meter and regulating valve installed on the pipeline. The bottom of the anhydrous chlorosulfonic acid storage tank is equipped with a chlorosulfonic acid metering pump, with a flow meter and regulating valve installed on the pipeline.
[0007] The reactor is made of corrosion-resistant material and meets the relevant requirements for pressure vessels. It is equipped with a cooling coil that leads to a circulating water pipeline. A regulating valve is installed on the circulating water inlet pipeline. A thermometer is installed on the top of the reactor and interlocked with the PLC controller. The reaction is carried out by setting the flow rate and the reactor temperature is controlled by the circulating water regulating valve.
[0008] A reflux tower is installed at the top of the reactor, and a condenser is installed at the top of the reflux tower. The condenser is cooled by circulating water, and packing (PP Pall rings) is installed at the bottom. The reaction gas phase is sent to the reflux tower for separation through the gas phase pipe, and hydrogen chloride enters the falling film absorber through the gas phase pipe.
[0009] The falling film absorber absorbs hydrogen chloride by adding primary water, and a regulating valve is installed on the primary water delivery pipeline. The absorbed hydrogen chloride is converted into hydrochloric acid, which flows through a pipeline to an acid circulation tank. A level gauge is installed at the bottom of the acid circulation tank, and an absorption circulation pump is installed at the bottom of the acid circulation tank, forming its own circulation with the falling film absorber through pipelines.
[0010] Unabsorbed gas phase from the falling film absorber enters the water washing tower through a pipeline. The water washing tower is constructed with a PTFE-lined rigid frame and a packing section in the middle. The gas phase flows out from the top of the water washing tower. A primary water makeup pipeline with a regulating valve is installed in the bottom of the water washing tower. A level gauge is installed in the bottom of the water washing tower. The bottom of the bottom is connected to a water washing pump via a pipeline, which is then connected to the top of the water washing tower, and a regulating valve controls the flow rate.
[0011] Unabsorbed gas phase from the water washing tower is sent to the alkali washing tower via pipeline. The alkali washing tower is made of PTFE-lined steel with a packing section in the middle. The gas phase enters the alkali washing tower through the pipeline and flows out from the top. An alkali pipeline is installed in the bottom of the alkali washing tower, and a regulating valve is installed on the pipeline. A level gauge is installed in the bottom of the alkali washing tower. The bottom of the bottom is connected to the alkali washing pump through a pipeline, which is connected to the top of the alkali washing tower through a pipeline, and a regulating valve is installed to control the flow rate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention provides a highly efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly process for the preparation of fluorosulfonic acid and the recovery of tail gas. It solves the problems of difficult-to-control reaction temperature, incomplete absorption of byproduct hydrogen chloride, and serious environmental pollution in the prior art, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing environmental pollution, and ensuring production safety.
