Technical Field

The invention relates to a method for separating benzene-n-propanol, in particular to a method for separating benzene-n-propanol by using trioctylmethylammonium acetate as an extracting agent.

Background

Benzene and n-propanol are important chemical basic raw materials, and can generate an azeotrope in the production and use processes of benzene and n-propanol, and the azeotrope can not be separated by using a common method, and extractive distillation is a common method for industrially separating the azeotrope. The extractive distillation is a special distillation method which adds a third component (called as an extractant or a solvent) into a raw material liquid to change the relative volatility of the original components so as to meet the separation requirement, and the extraction method requires that the boiling point of the extractant is much higher than that of each component in the raw material liquid, does not form an azeotropic liquid with the components, and is easy to recover. The key technology of extraction and rectification is the selection of an extracting agent, and the traditional organic solvent has the defects of large using amount, high energy consumption, easy volatilization, air pollution and the like; the traditional salt extractant has the problems of low solubility, strong corrosivity, easy crystallization at low temperature, equipment corrosion and blockage caused by calcification and the like. As a novel extracting agent, the ionic liquid has the advantages of negligible vapor pressure, high chemical stability, high boiling point, wide liquid range, recyclability, strong designability and the like, and can make up for the defects of the traditional extracting agent.

Benzene is a less polar hydrocarbon material, most highly polar ionic liquids are insoluble in benzene, while nonpolar ionic liquids generally have a lower separation capacity. Therefore, the ionic liquid used in the separation process of the benzene-n-propanol mixture has high solubility in polar and non-polar systems and simultaneously has high selectivity to a system to be separated. Since it is difficult to find a suitable ionic liquid by a simple experimental method, a precise quantum chemical calculation is performed before the experiment, and the range of the experiment is narrowed as much as possible from the aspects of solubility and selectivity.

In addition to solubility and selectivity, physical properties such as viscosity, density and the like of the ionic liquid also influence the final separation result, so that a gas-liquid phase equilibrium experiment is firstly carried out after the ionic liquid to be selected is obtained, and a proper thermodynamic equation is used for fitting measured data to establish a mathematical model. And testing physical properties such as viscosity, density and the like. And substituting the obtained result into ASPEN process simulation software for calculation, and debugging through actual rectifying tower operation to obtain the optimal extracting agent and the optimal technological process.

Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.

The method takes trioctylmethylammonium acetate as an extractant, and uses an extraction and rectification tower and an extractant recovery tower to recover benzene and n-propanol, and the extractant can be recycled. Since the ionic liquid is hardly volatile, the extractant is fed from the second or third tray of the rectification column. In order to ensure that the benzene-n-propanol system has enough rectifying and extracting sections during separation, the benzene-n-propanol mixture raw material enters from the middle part of the tower. The total number of tower plates and feeding position are related to the factors of total amount of raw materials, composition, dosage of extracting agent and the like, and can be initially calculated by ASPEN software and corrected by an actual rectification experiment. Benzene products are obtained at the tower top, and the purity can reach 99.5 wt%. The mixed liquid of the n-propanol extractant produced at the bottom of the rectifying tower enters the solvent recovery tower from the top of the tower, and the number of tower plates of the recovery tower is small because the ionic liquid has almost no volatility. In order to avoid the decomposition or carbonization of the extractant caused by the overhigh temperature at the bottom of the tower, the tower 2 adopts reduced pressure rectification with the pressure of about 200 Pa. The n-propanol is produced from the top of the tower, the purity can reach 99.5wt%, the extractant is produced from the bottom of the tower, and the purity of the extractant can reach 99.0 wt%. And finally, the extractant produced at the bottom of the solvent recovery tower is recycled and mixed with a small amount of supplemented extractant and then returns to the extraction and rectification tower.
