Description

New process for synthesizing diethanol amine
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of chemical engineering, is a kind of novel process of synthetic diethanolamine.
Background technology
Thanomin is the general name of Monoethanolamine MEA BASF (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), trolamine (TEA), is one of important derivatives of oxyethane.Because the thanomin molecule has amino (alkalescence) and hydroxyl (wetting ability) simultaneously, the chemical property of amine and alcohol is arranged, so this product has purposes widely, can be used as tensio-active agent, gas absorbent, washing composition, cement intensifier etc.Wherein diethanolamine is mainly as analytical reagent, the industrial gas purifying such as acid gas absorbent, coke gas, washing composition, lubricant, tenderizer, tensio-active agent and organic gas are synthetic etc., its consumption accounts for 42% of thanomin total amount, is the product of consumption maximum in three kinds of thanomin.
The thanomin production process route is mainly the oxyethane ammonolysis process in the world at present, and the technique that adopts is mainly pipe reaction and rectifying separation technique.This technique is take ammoniacal liquor and oxyethane as raw material, synthetic MEA, DEA, TEA and some byproducts in tubular reactor (or tower reactor), and mixture obtains high purity product through after rectifying separation.Patent 200910098497 has been reported the abbreviated system of producing about thanomin, take liquefied ammonia and oxyethane as raw material, produces thanomin under the existence of a small amount of water catalyzer.Patent 96100557 has been reported the waterless tubular reaction process of producing about thanomin, this technique is also with liquid phase epoxidation ethane and liquefied ammonia low temperature pre-mixing by a certain percentage, send into tubular reactor and carry out reaction under high pressure, then steam and reclaim excess of ammonia through step-down.Patent 90103426 and patent 20091098498 are reported all relates to the liquid-liquid tube reaction ethanolamine production method.
There are several technological difficulties problems in existing thanomin synthesis technique.(1) boiling point of thanomin very high (MEA:170 ℃, DEA:268.8 ℃, TEA:360 ℃), product rectifying need to be carried out under high vacuum, and system energy consumption is very high; (2) the thanomin building-up reactions is strong exothermal reaction (thermal discharge of every moles of ethylene oxide ring-opening reaction is 92 kJ), existing technique must in time shift out a large amount of reaction heat from reactor, shift out reaction heat and not only cause the reduction of energy utilization efficiency, and jeopardize reactive system safety and device smooth running, become the hidden danger of safety in production; (3) due to the diethanolamine in the thanomin product be the intermediate product of consecutive reaction, existing synthesis technique is difficult to the diethanolamine selectivity (being no more than 30%) that reaches high, thereby has limited the raising (diethanolamine is the product of consumption maximum in three kinds of thanomin) of its output.So if can significantly improve the selectivity of diethanolamine in the process of synthesizing ethanolamine, this will be highly profitable to increasing this product production and reducing the later separation cost.
