The method for purifying
propylene glycol methyl
ether acetate from comprehensive waste
solvent comprises the following steps: (1)
ozone is introduced into the waste
solvent, and EDTA-dinaesium
calcium is added, and after reaction, the waste
solvent is pumped into a multi-layer adsorption
tower, and passes through an
activated carbon layer, a hydrated
zirconium oxide loaded resin layer, a weakly basic anion exchange resin and a
molecular sieve layer; (2)
acetic acid is added and pumped into a catalytic rectifying
tower, a
sulfonic acid solid catalyst is arranged in a catalytic section, and a crude product is taken out from a side line of a rectifying section; and (3) the crude product is sent into a double-membrane
cascade system, is pumped from an intermediate tank to a PI-ZSM-5
hybrid membrane, is circulated back to the intermediate tank without passing through, is vaporized after passing through a permeate liquid, is sent to a DDR type
zeolite membrane, and a vaporized retentate which does not pass through the DDR type
zeolite membrane is collected, and a condensed liquid is obtained, and the main product is obtained. Compared with the existing multi-effect heat
coupling rectification process, the method reduces
energy consumption, and solves the problem of removal of high-boiling-point and near-boiling-point impurities; and for comprehensive waste solvent containing various impurities, the method can also realize efficient purification of
propylene glycol methyl
ether acetate, and the range of treatable
impurity types is wide.
