Hydrogen recycling method in production process of chlorotrifluoroethylene
Technical Field
The invention relates to a hydrogen recycling method, in particular to a hydrogen recycling method in a chlorotrifluoroethylene production process.
Background
Chlorotrifluoroethylene, also known as chlorotrifluoroethylene, is an important fluorine-containing polymeric monomer and can be used for manufacturing fluorine resins, fluororubbers, fluoroplastics, and the like.
For the preparation of chlorotrifluoroethylene, two methods exist in the existing industrial production, namely a zinc powder reduction method process taking trichlorotrifluoroethane (CFC-113) as a raw material and a solid-phase hydrogenation dechlorination process taking trichlorotrifluoroethane (CFC-113) as a raw material gas.
The gas-solid phase hydrogenation dechlorination process using the trichlorotrifluoroethane (CFC-113) as the raw material has the advantages of environmental protection, high efficiency, low cost and the like, thereby having wider industrial development value. However, in the process, in order to improve the service life of the catalyst in the gas-solid phase catalytic hydrodechlorination link, a larger hydrogen/trifluorotrichloroethane ratio is usually adopted, and excessive hydrogen is difficult to recover, so that not only is a large amount of hydrogen raw materials wasted, but also partial chlorotrifluoroethylene products are carried in the hydrogen discharge, and the product yield is low.
Therefore, it is very necessary to develop a hydrogen recycling method suitable for the production process of chlorotrifluoroethylene to improve the utilization rate of raw materials and the yield of products.
Disclosure of Invention

(1) feeding a crude product 8 containing chlorotrifluoroethylene and hydrogen into an acid remover 2 for water and alkali washing to reduce the acidity of a material flow 9 to 15-300 ppm;
(2) enabling the material flow 9 to enter a dehydrator 3 for dehydrating, and reducing the water content of the material flow 10 to 50-500 ppm;
(3) enabling the material flow 10 to enter a compressor 4 for compression, and enabling the formed material flow 11 to enter a condenser 5 for condensation, wherein the condensation temperature is-25-0 ℃, and the material flow 12 is formed;
(4) when the mass percentage of oxygen in stream 12 is lower than 0.2%, it is returned to reactor 1; when the mass percentage of oxygen in stream 12 is higher than 0.2%, it is fed to the three-waste system as stream 13.
In the hydrogen recycling method provided by the invention, in the step (1), the alkali used in the water alkali washing can be an alkali commonly used in the field. From the viewpoint of availability and economy, it is preferable that the base is selected from sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide. The concentration of the base is not particularly required in the present invention. Preferably, the alkali is present at a mass concentration of 2% to 10%.

The water washing can be one-stage or multi-stage water washing. The alkaline washing can be one-stage or multi-stage alkaline washing. The number of stages of water washing and alkali washing can be selected according to actual requirements.
According to the hydrogen recycling method provided by the invention, in the step (1), acid in a crude product containing chlorotrifluoroethylene and hydrogen is removed through water and alkali washing, so that a material flow 9 is obtained. Preferably, the acidity of said stream 9 is less than 300 ppm. It is further preferred that the acidity of said stream 9 is less than 200 ppm.
In the hydrogen recycling method provided by the invention, in the step (2), the water removal method may be at least one selected from freeze drying, solid caustic soda drying and molecular sieves.

When the solid caustic drying method is used for removing water, it is preferable that the base used for the solid caustic drying is selected from sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide.
When a molecular sieve process is used to remove water, it is preferred that the molecular sieve is a silicate.
In the hydrogen recycling method provided by the invention, in the step (2), water in the material flow 9 is removed through water removal, so that a material flow 10 is obtained. Preferably, the moisture of the stream 10 is less than 200 ppm.
In the hydrogen recycling method provided by the invention, in the step (3), the material flow 10 is compressed by the compressor 4, and then the material flow 11 is condensed by the condenser 5 to obtain the material flow 12.
Preferably, the compression pressure of the compressor 4 is 1.0 to 3.5 MPa.
Preferably, the condensing temperature of the condenser 5 is-20 to-5 ℃.
The condenser 5 may be condensed using a condensing medium commonly used in the art. Preferably, the condenser 5 uses brine or HCFC-22 with the temperature of-15 ℃ to-30 ℃ for condensation.
The oxygen content of the material flow 12 obtained after condensation by the condenser 5 is measured by the oxygen measuring instrument 6. If the mass percent of oxygen in stream 12 is less than 0.2%, it is returned to reactor 1 and continues to participate in the reaction. If the mass percentage of oxygen in stream 12 is higher than 0.2%, it is fed to the three wastes system as stream 13.
