The charging of first reactor T1 and discharging result are as shown in the table
Since the amount of the material of PG is the sum of amount of material of DMC, EMC and DEC, be not included in PG in table goes out liquid mass ratio.From Table 1 can be seen that, start to increase as the increase of total raw material mass flow goes out methanol and ethanol content in liquid composition, into reactor Reactant not up to react equilibrium state just distillated from reactor.Therefore 2500kg/h is optimal total raw material mass flow.
Embodiment 2
Under the operating condition of embodiment 1, total raw material mass flow is 2500kg/h, during rectifying pressure 3MPa, changes T2 pressurizations Rectifier column reflux ratio, the change of tower reactor bottom methyl ethyl carbonate mass fraction are as shown in table 2.
As can be seen from Table 2, as reflux ratio increases, T2 compression rectification tower reactors bottom EMC mass fractions first increase and increase afterwards Speed substantially slows down.The reason is that with the increase of reflux ratio, the more methanol of tower top, ethanol, DMC and the azeotropic of DMC and methanol Thing is brought away from liquid phase, and the DMC mass fractions in tower reactor cut reduce, and the mass fraction of opposite EMC is with increase, but reflux ratio DEC mass fractions are basically unchanged after more than 3, the reason is that after split ratio reaches certain value, the composition of kettle liquid reflux has reached Balance.But excessive reflux ratio will also result in unit capacity reduction, therefore, during rectifying reflux ratio controlled optimal 3.
Embodiment 3
Under the operating condition of embodiment 1, when total raw material mass flow is 2500kg/h, change the pressure of T2 compression rectification towers, The every composition mass fraction change in tower reactor bottom is as shown in table 3.
From table 3 it can be seen that the mass fraction of methanol and ethanol reduces in being formed with each liquid phase of rise of reaction pressure, The reason is that the boiling-point difference increase that azeotropic mixture forms under elevated pressures, azeotropic mixture are more prone to separate.But when pressure is higher than 3MPa Each composition is held essentially constant, and since high pressure is higher for equipment requirement, can greatly increase input cost, therefore 3MPa is the essence Evaporate the optimum condition of process.
Embodiment 4
Under the operating condition of embodiment 1, T41, the temperature of 2- propane diols batch fractionating tower tower reactors, which separates 1,2-PD, imitates The influence of fruit is as shown in table 4.
From table 4, it can be seen that with the rise of bottom temperature, 1,2-PD, which contains, to be gradually risen, but raffinate ratio is corresponding Also accordingly increase.Therefore it is 150-157 DEG C control bottom temperature, otherwise can generate 1,2-PD methyl ether, and one contracts 1,2- the third two Alcohol, two contracting 1,2-PDs etc., and temperature is higher, the amount of by-products of generation is bigger.
