Description

Separation equipment and method for mixed solvent containing toluene, ethyl acetate, ethanol and the like
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of solvent recovery, and particularly relates to separation equipment and a separation method for a mixed solvent containing toluene, ethyl acetate, ethanol and the like.
Background
Alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone, ABL for short, of formula: c (C) 6 H 8 O 3 Molecular weight: 128.13 CAS number:517-23-7, is a colorless transparent liquid with ester smell, and is mainly used for synthesizing vitamin B1 and pesticide. The main route for producing the alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone at present is to take gamma-butyrolactone and ethyl acetate as raw materials, sodium as a catalyst and toluene as a solvent, the production process produces ethanol as a byproduct, and meanwhile, a small amount of water exists in the raw materials, and in the subsequent product distillation and purification process, the solvent needs to be distilled out firstly, and the distilled mixed solvent comprises the following components: 30-34% toluene, 32-38% ethyl acetate, 30-33.5% ethanol and 0.5-2.0% water. The mixed solvent is required to be separated, so that the solvent toluene: purity greater than 99.6%, ethanol content less than 400ppm and moisture less than 400ppm, raw material ethyl acetate: the purity is more than 99.6%, the ethanol content is less than 400ppm and the water content is less than 400ppm so as to meet the recycling requirement, and the ethanol reaches the industrial ethanol standard for sale.
The separation and purification of the generated mixed solvent is a very difficult problem, because the system has a plurality of groups of binary azeotropes and ternary azeotropes under normal pressure, the ethanol content in the binary azeotropes of ethanol and water is 95.6%, and the azeotropes temperature is 78.2 ℃; the content of ethanol in the binary azeotropic composition of ethanol and toluene is 68 percent, and the azeotropic temperature is 76.7 ℃; the content of ethanol in the binary azeotropic composition of ethanol and ethyl acetate is 31 percent, and the azeotropic temperature is 71.8 ℃; the ethanol content in the binary azeotropic composition of ethyl acetate and water is 91.5 percent, and the azeotropic temperature is 70.4 ℃; the toluene content in the binary azeotropic composition of toluene and water is 86.5%, and the azeotropic temperature is 84.1 ℃; the ternary azeotropic composition of ethyl acetate, ethanol and water has the ethyl acetate content of 78.3 percent, the ethanol content of 13.1 percent and the azeotropic temperature of 70.2 ℃, so that the separation of the mixed solvent is difficult to realize by common rectification.
The patent CN102992930B discloses a toluene solvent recovery process and separation equipment thereof in the production process of alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone, the method adopts an extraction rectification process, ketone substances are used as an extractant to separate toluene from mixed solvents containing toluene, ethyl acetate, ethanol and the like through twice extraction rectification, and alcohol substances are further used as the extractant to separate a mixture of ethyl acetate and ethanol. Although the method realizes the separation of the mixed solvent, the method adopts two kinds of extracting agents, and two additional other components are introduced in the separation process, so that other impurities are inevitably introduced into three separated products (toluene, ethyl acetate and ethanol respectively), thereby affecting the quality of ABL.
