The invention belongs to the technical field of
fluorine chemical double-carbon emission reduction, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing
hydrogen-containing fluoroether through electro-
catalysis continuous
decarboxylation of perfluorocarboxylic acid and salt thereof. According to the method, a perfluorinated
proton membrane is used as a diaphragm, an
electrolytic cell is divided into an
anode and a
cathode,
perfluorinated carboxylic acid and salt thereof are used as reaction raw materials, a mixture of water and a polar aprotic
solvent is used as a
solvent mother solution, and the
solvent mother solution and the reaction raw materials are mixed and then continuously introduced into the
anode side of the
electrolytic cell for electro-
catalysis; the
effluent flowing out from the
anode side is subjected to rectification separation, light components containing the
hydrogen-containing fluoroether and water are distilled out, a
hydrogen-containing fluoroether product is obtained through liquid separation, meanwhile, the separated water is recycled and mixed with the residual liquid obtained after rectification to form recycled
mother liquor, recycling of the
mother liquor is achieved, and recycling of the hydrogen-containing fluoroether product is achieved. And continuously supplementing equimolar perfluorocarboxylic acid into the recycled
mother liquor according to the output of the product, thereby realizing the
continuous production of the hydrogen-containing fluoroether. According to the method, the output of waste liquid is reduced, meanwhile, hydrogen is co-produced on the
cathode side, and the utilization efficiency of energy is improved.
