Method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of annular multilayer sleeve pipe membrane reactor and using the reactor carry out (methyl) acrylic acid with
The method that the esterification of C1-C4 alcohol produces (methyl) acrylate.
Background technology
(methyl) acrylate is a kind of large industrial chemicals, (methyl) esters of acrylic acid tree that its autohemagglutination or copolymerization are formed
Fat is widely used in the production of coating, adhesive, lucite, weaving etc..(methyl) esters of acrylic acid can be by (methyl) third
Olefin(e) acid and alcohol carry out esterification and obtain by acid catalyst catalysis.
Esterification is a reversible reaction, therefore conversion ratio can only be below an equilibrium valve, and it is normal that this depends on balance
Number.To improve conversion ratio, a kind of method can make a kind of raw alcohol or sour large excess of method.This method often leads to pair
Product increases, and selectivity declines, and certain difficulty is also brought to follow-up refining;Another method is that the water of removal generation is (such as special
The method of profit 200910012161.1), this method is more effective.
The method of usual esterification water removal has directly distillation water removal and adds entrainer dehydration (such as toluene, hexamethylene).
These method energy consumptions are higher, and dehydrating effect is undesirable, and entrainer environmental pollution is larger.It is using membrane technology osmotic, evaporating and dewatering
Dehydration technique emerging in recent years, this technology has very big progress in terms of solvent dehydration, but it is anti-to be applied to esterification
Should be rarely reported.
The prevailing technology for producing (methyl) acrylate has inorganic acid catalysis (such as Ai Lefu atropics chemical patent
95109453.X), organic acid catalysis (such as BASF patent 200610073923.5), (for example sinopec is special for solid acid catalysis
201110255431.9) and cation resin catalyzing agent catalytic esterification (such as catalyst patent 200710112480) profit.
Inorganic acid (such as concentrated sulfuric acid) and organic acid (such as p-methyl benzenesulfonic acid) belong to homogeneous catalyst, and homogeneous catalysis has biography
The advantages of matter effect is good, reaction is fast, but strong acid has very strong corrosion to equipment.Solid catalyst can avoid strong acid and set
Standby directly contact, can substantially reduce corrosion of the catalyst to equipment.(methyl) acrylic acid is prepared using solid catalyst production
The equipment of esters has a Railway Project, and first, continuous dehydration cannot be realized using fixed bed unit, so as to cause turning for esterification
Rate is low;Second, solid catalyst does not flow makes material easily form channel, causes catalyst use efficiency low, mass transfer effect compared with
Difference;3rd, (methyl) acrylic acid contains unsaturated double-bond, easily produces polymer, the inhibition air of general esterification plant be from
Single-point or some addition, inhibit air skewness in reaction system;4th, using the esterification of solid catalyst,
Alcohols is in catalyst surface absorption generation ethers impurity.

Water, can be such that solid catalyst is effectively contacted with material again, and can as possible avoid the generation of side reaction.
