Description

Method for preparing acetaldehyde by electrolyzing ethanol solution through glowdischarge
Technical Field
The invention relates to an acetaldehyde preparation technology, in particular to a method for preparing acetaldehyde by electrolyzing ethanol solution through glow discharge.
Background
Acetaldehyde is an important organic feedstock and the world acetaldehyde production capacity in 1998 is 307 million t/a. Downstream products of acetaldehyde include acetic acid, acetate, ethyl acetate, pentaerythritol, threonine, pyridine series, 3-hydroxybutyraldehyde, 1, 3-butanediol, cinnamaldehyde, chloral, peracetic acid, lactic acid, glyoxal, glyoxylic acid, allantoin, and the like. In addition, many highly advantageous small-scale acetaldehyde derivative products are put into production. Acetaldehyde, for example, is used in the production of poly (n-vinylacetamide) (PNVA), a novel functional polymeric adsorbent, using acetic acid, acetaldehyde and ammonia as starting materials. India has a production technology for preparing Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) by using acetaldehyde and acetic anhydride as raw materials to react and hydrolyzing a vinyl diacetate intermediate. Worldwide VAM is a scaled product, with an estimated current annual yield of approximately 400 tens of thousands of tons.
The ethanol route is one of the main acetaldehyde production processes in China at present. After ethanol reacts in an oxidation reaction furnace to generate acetaldehyde, a dilute acetaldehyde solution containing 3.5-7.5% (mole fraction) of acetaldehyde is formed, and the dilute acetaldehyde solution enters an acetaldehyde rectifying tower to be separated, so that an acetaldehyde product is obtained. In the ethanol oxidation process, H atoms in ethanol molecules are discharged in the form of water,so that the concentration of acetaldehyde in a reaction system is reduced, and resource waste is caused. Acetaldehyde may also be synthesized by ethylene oxidation, i.e., using ethylene and oxygen as raw materials. The reaction process of the ethylene oxidation method usually uses palladium chloride and copper chloride as catalysts, and ethylene and oxygen undergo oxidation reaction to generate acetaldehyde. The acetaldehyde can also be produced by the acetylene hydration method.
In both the ethylene oxidation process and the acetylene hydration process, the reaction requires a catalyst and a relatively high reaction temperature, and the reaction equipment used is bulky.
