Description

Rectification process of 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propylene glycol
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of chemical production, and particularly relates to a rectification process of 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propylene glycol.
Background
2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propylene glycol is an important polyol organic chemical product, and is mainly used for producing unsaturated polyester resin, oil-free alkyd resin, polyester polyol, esters used for synthesizing lubricants, polyurethane foam plastics and elastomer plasticizers, additives of high-grade lubricating oil and other fine chemicals.
The production process of 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol is generally: organic tertiary amine such as trimethylamine, triethylamine and the like is used as a catalyst, formaldehyde and isobutyl aldehyde are used as raw materials to obtain hydroxyl tert-valeraldehyde through condensation, and the hydroxyl tert-valeraldehyde is hydrogenated to obtain the 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol. During the condensation reaction of formaldehyde and isobutyl aldehyde, a small amount of aldehyde raw materials are subjected to disproportionation reaction to generate a byproduct organic acid and alcohol, and the organic acid and the alcohol are further subjected to esterification reaction to generate ester substances and water, such as methyl formate, isobutyl isobutyrate, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol mono (di) formate, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol isobutyrate, 3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethylpropyl propionate and other ester impurities. The above ester impurities enter the refining unit along with the material. Some esters have boiling points which have large difference with the boiling point of the target product 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol or are azeotropic with water and can be easily separated and removed from a crude product system of the 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol, such as methyl formate, isobutyl isobutyrate, 3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethylpropyl propionate; however, some ester impurities have low relative volatility with the target 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol, such as 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol formate, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol isobutyrate, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol ester, which has a boiling point close to that of 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol, and the ester is difficult to separate from the crude 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol. Although some esters can be converted by hydrogenolysis to more easily separable alcohols, such as 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol mono (di) formate, by the action of a hydrogenation catalyst, hydrogenolysis does not ensure complete and complete performance and a small amount may remain. The existence of ester impurities not only affects the purity and yield of the final product, but also causes the consumption of raw materials for producing 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol to be increased and even affects the performance of downstream products due to the generation of the ester impurities.
In order to solve the problems, various refining processes of 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol are provided in the prior art. Chinese patent document CN101993351A discloses a method of hydrolyzing esters in the product by adding alkali after hydrogenation reaction, and then purifying by rectification under reduced pressure, but the process is complicated, and a large amount of water is introduced in the hydrolysis process by adding alkali, which results in increased energy consumption and increased cost in the rectification process, and also results in a large burden of sewage treatment; chinese patent document CN107311840A discloses a method of hydrogenation followed by extraction and then vacuum distillation purification, but because petroleum ether extraction is needed, the solvent consumption in the extraction process is large, the extraction efficiency is low, the production benefit is reduced, and secondary pollution is easily generated; chinese patent document CN103449970A discloses that esters can be decomposed into alcohols by hydrogenation, but the difficulty of hydrogenation reaction of the substances is different due to the difference of the transmission and diffusion properties of the substances in the catalyst channels, for example, the formate products can be hydrogenated and decomposed relatively more thoroughly, but the separation effect of hydrogenation and decomposition of esters such as isobutyric acid 2, 2-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediol ester, 3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethylpropyl propionate ester is limited, and the finished products also contain more ester impurities, which affects the quality and performance of the products.
