Description

A kind of method of methanol vapor phase continuous production dme
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of methanol vapor phase continuous production dme.
Background technology
Dme is a kind of broad-spectrum Chemicals and fuel substitute.Dme adopts the methanol dehydration method to produce the earliest, is reflected in the liquid phase and carries out, and main drawback is that equipment corrosion is serious, operational condition is abominable, and environmental pollution is serious.At present, the producing dimethyl ether by dehydrating methanol technology of industrial employing solid acid catalyst is main method and Future Development trend.
Disclose a kind of molecular sieve catalyst by the methanol production dme at U.S. Pat P6740783, the proton on the molecular sieve catalyst is substituted by metal or amine, and methanol vapor is carried out dehydration reaction on molecular sieve catalyst,
Chinese patent CN1036199A discloses a kind of method by the methanol production dme, methanol vapor is carried out dehydration reaction containing on the gamma-alumina catalyst of a small amount of silicon-dioxide, dewatered product is sent into rectifying tower and is carried out rectifying, pure Dimethyl ether and impurity respectively on a certain column plate of this tower as the sideline product extraction.
Chinese patent CN1125216 discloses a kind of method by the methanol production dme, the methyl alcohol of content 72~99.9% is after the gasification knockout tower is removed high boiling material and impurity, in multistage chilling-type reactor, carry out the gas phase catalysis dehydration reaction, employing contains gama-alumina and aluminosilicate crystalline composite solid-acid catalyst, 190~380 ℃ of temperature of reaction, methanol conversion~78%.
Chinese patent Granted publication CN1073979C discloses a kind of method from methanol production and recovery dme, be about to unreacted methanol and crystal's cut from the time with circulating reaction, the mol ratio of water and methyl alcohol is 0.8~1 in the recycle stock, can significantly reduce the load that reclaims the unreacted methanol still-process, also can contain the water of 3~10% (weight) in the fresh methanol raw material, keep the methanol conversion more than 76% simultaneously.
Methanol gas phase dewatering preparing dimethy ether can obtain purity and reach 99.9% dme, but temperature of reaction is higher, is generally 220~380 ℃; And reaction process also has certain requirement to the purity of methanol feedstock, can cause per pass conversion to descend when methyl alcohol reaction raw materials water content is higher inevitably, and higher temperature of reaction stable unfavorable to catalyzer.
Among the China utility model patent ZL94222811.1, a kind of gas-solid phase multiterminal cold shock formula method has been proposed, this method is by coming the control catalyst bed temperature to reactor catalyst bed injection cold air, because the Dehydration of methanol device is a strong exothermal reaction, cold air is not enough to reduce reaction bed temperature, therefore, under the temperature of reaction condition, be difficult to control bed temperature by this method.
Because the methanol gas phase dehydration reaction is the last one exothermic process, the beds temperature rise of adiabatic reactor reactor can reach nearly 100 ℃, even higher.The above invention is the general fixed-bed reactor that adopt following form in industrial implementation: (1) adiabatic reactor, (2) interior heat transfer reactor, (3) shell and tube reactor, the reactor of (4) gas phase cold shock, (5) gas phase quench reactor.In industrial production, there are problems such as the restive or temperature distributing disproportionation of reaction bed temperature, the industry that therefore is difficult to maximize is produced.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method of methanol vapor phase continuous production dme.
