The invention provides a continuous preparation process of triisobutyl
phosphate, which comprises four steps of esterification, deacidification and dealcoholization, refining and
isobutanol recovery, in the esterification process, the specific surface area of fluid in a reactor is increased, the
reaction rate is increased, the conversion rate of raw materials is ensured, the use of an acidic catalyst in the esterification process is avoided, and the yield of the product is improved. The production of by-products such as HCl in the esterification process is reduced, the alkali washing column is used for replacing the
water washing process, the
water washing process and the alkali
neutralization process can be integrated into one process, the production of
phosphorus-containing and acid-containing
wastewater is reduced, the
wastewater treatment cost is greatly reduced, excessive
isobutanol is recycled in the dealcoholization process, and the production cost is reduced.
Raw material waste caused in the washing process is avoided, the
utilization rate of the raw materials is increased, production
energy consumption is reduced, the
green chemistry concept and the national environment-friendly
emission standard are met, and the method has the advantages of being high in economic benefit, energy-saving, environment-friendly, simple in actual operation and convenient to popularize and implement.
