Description

Method for removing cyclohexanone and intermediate components in cyclohexanol
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for removing cyclohexanone and intermediate components in cyclohexanol, belonging to the field of cyclohexanone preparation.
Background
Cyclohexanone is prepared by oxidation of cyclohexane, typically by the steps of:
(1) Oxidizing cyclohexane by using a gas containing molecular oxygen to generate a cyclohexane oxidation solution containing substances such as cyclohexyl hydroperoxide, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone and the like;
(2) Treating the cyclohexane oxidation solution with an alkaline solution to decompose the cyclohexyl hydroperoxide therein to form cyclohexyl alcohol and cyclohexanone, and neutralizing the acid in the oxidation solution to saponify the ester;
(3) Recycling unreacted cyclohexane by distillation, and feeding the rectifying still liquid without cyclohexane and cyclohexanol dehydrogenation product into a crude alcohol ketone tank;
(4) Materials led out from the crude alcohol ketone tank enter a light tower for vacuum rectification, components which are more volatile than cyclohexanone are separated from the top of the tower, and cyclohexanone, cyclohexanol and components which are more difficult to volatilize than cyclohexanone are discharged from the tower kettle;
(5) Feeding the materials in the light tower kettle into a ketone tower for vacuum rectification, obtaining cyclohexanone product from the tower top, and discharging cyclohexanol and components which are harder to volatilize than cyclohexanone from the tower kettle;
(6) The ketone tower bottom liquid enters an alcohol tower for vacuum rectification, components which are more volatile than cyclohexanol are distilled out from the top of the tower together with cyclohexanol, and are sent to a crude alcohol tank, and components which are more difficult to volatilize than cyclohexanol are discharged from the tower bottom;
(7) And (3) leading out materials from the crude alcohol tank to a cyclohexanol dehydrogenation process, wherein part of cyclohexanol is dehydrogenated into cyclohexanone, and the dehydrogenation product is led into the crude alcohol ketone tank and is used as a raw material of the light tower together with alkane tower kettle liquid.
From the above typical processes for cyclohexanone production, it can be seen that substances generated from cyclohexane oxidation and cyclohexanol dehydrogenation, which are volatile between cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol under the operating conditions of each rectification column, cannot be removed from the rectification process, and gradually accumulate in the rectification system, which have an influence on cyclohexanone production, and these substances are collectively called intermediate components.
These volatilities are mostly impurities with boiling point higher than cyclohexanol at normal pressure in the intermediate components between cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol, and because they are azeotroped with cyclohexanol under alcohol column rectification conditions, they distill overhead with cyclohexanol, resulting in a gradual increase in the content of intermediate components in the crude alcohol tank material, often exceeding 10% in total. The existing method is that when the device is overhauled or stopped, the components with higher content of the intermediate components in the crude alcohol ketone tank and the crude alcohol tank are treated as waste materials, and after normal driving, the content of the intermediate components in the rectification materials is gradually increased. These higher levels of intermediate components can adversely affect the production of cyclohexanone: firstly, the substances are evaporated in an alcohol tower, energy is consumed, then the substances enter a cyclohexanol dehydrogenation process along with cyclohexanol, and the substances return to a crude alcohol ketone tank after evaporation, temperature rise, reaction and temperature reduction, and enter a light tower, a ketone tower and an alcohol tower again, so that the invalid circulation of the substances is caused, the energy consumption is increased, and the equipment space is occupied; secondly, when the content of the impurities is high, a small amount of the impurities enters a cyclohexanone product at the top of the ketone tower, so that the quality of the cyclohexanone is reduced; thirdly, in order to ensure the quality of cyclohexanone, the content of cyclohexanone in the material in the ketone tower kettle has to be improved, so that excessive cyclohexanone is brought into the raw material for dehydrogenating cyclohexanol, the conversion rate of cyclohexanol in the dehydrogenation process is reduced, the condensation side reaction of cyclohexanone is increased, and the selectivity of cyclohexanol dehydrogenation is reduced; fourthly, the crude alcohol ketone material and the crude alcohol material with higher content of intermediate components are treated as waste materials during the stopping period, so that the material consumption of cyclohexanone production is increased.
The production amount of the intermediate components is small, for example, a 10 ten thousand ton/year cyclohexanone device is taken as an example, the production amount of the intermediate components is about 40 tons/year, and the production amount of the intermediate components is 5kg/h, so that the concentration of the intermediate components in the rectification system can be kept constant only by removing the intermediate components at the speed of 5kg/h.
Wu Shouhui in petrochemical 1983,12 (10): 642-649 it is pointed out that impurities contained in cyclohexanol can increase the thermal instability of cyclohexanol itself, with an increase of 3-4% in high boiling substances when 90-91% of cyclohexanol by industrial rectification is passed through a superheater, and with 98-98.8% of cyclohexanol, almost unchanged. The dehydrogenation selectivity is reduced by about 4% when industrially rectified cyclohexanol is used, compared with that when pure cyclohexanol is used, so that the cyclohexanol dehydrogenation raw material should be refined to reduce the impurity content in cyclohexanol as much as possible, for example, a cutting tower is added in an alcohol ketone rectification system, but no specific method is given therein.
Chinese patent 201620707871.1 discloses a device for removing impurity butyl cyclohexyl ether in the production process of cyclohexanone, which is characterized in that a rectifying tower is added behind a cyclohexanol evaporator to carry out normal pressure or pressurized rectification on crude cyclohexanol, and part of butyl cyclohexyl ether is discharged from a tower kettle to a heavy component tank, so that the aim of reducing the content of intermediate components in the crude cyclohexanol is fulfilled. But the content of butyl cyclohexyl ether in the discharged tower kettle liquid is only 25-35%, and the rest components are cyclohexanol, which means that 2-3 times of cyclohexanol with butyl cyclohexyl ether is treated as a byproduct, thereby increasing material consumption. In addition, the problem of too high cyclohexanone content in the crude cyclohexanol still remains.
Chinese patent 201610837394.5 discloses a process for preparing cyclohexanone by dehydrogenating cyclohexanol, wherein the equipment of the cyclohexanol dehydrogenation procedure consists of a cyclohexanol evaporator, a vapor-liquid separator, a normal pressure or pressurized rectifying tower and a cyclohexanol dehydrogenation reactor; the rectifying tower is only provided with a stripping section, and the tower kettle is provided with a reboiler. The technology can greatly reduce the concentration of the methylcyclohexanone, the heptanone and the analogues thereof contained in the materials of the cyclohexanone rectification process and the cyclohexanol dehydrogenation process, and reduce the circulation and accumulation of the methylcyclohexanone, the heptanone and the analogues thereof in the cyclohexanone rectification process and the cyclohexanol dehydrogenation process. However, the process can not reduce the content of cyclohexanone in the cyclohexanol raw material, and the material discharged from the tower still contains about 30% of cyclohexanol, so that the material consumption is increased. In addition, these impurities, which are very low in content, are removed from the column bottom under normal pressure or pressurized conditions, requiring high energy consumption.
One common feature of these patents is that these intermediate components are removed from the bottoms by means of only atmospheric or pressurized rectification, and when the amount of these intermediate components in the feed is not high, more energy is required to remove these impurities from the bottoms, for example, when a feed containing 90% cyclohexanol and 10% intermediate components is subjected to atmospheric or pressurized rectification, a reflux ratio of 4 is set, and at least 45 parts of cyclohexanol is required to be evaporated per 1 part of intermediate component removed; if the reflux ratio is set to 4 when the material containing 96% of cyclohexanol and 4% of intermediate components is rectified under normal pressure or under pressure, at least 120 parts of cyclohexanol is evaporated per 1 part of intermediate component removed, and the energy consumption is increased sharply.
At the same time, cyclohexanol dehydrogenation is an endothermic equilibrium reaction, and increasing the concentration of cyclohexanone in the raw material shifts the equilibrium toward the raw material, and reduces the yield of cyclohexanol dehydrogenation, so that the concentration of cyclohexanone in the raw material should be reduced as much as possible. The cyclohexanone concentration in the ketone tower kettle material is often controlled to be more than 4 percent, sometimes up to 8 percent and even up to 10 percent, so that the cyclohexanone in the ketone tower kettle material is also necessary to be separated, and the quality of the cyclohexanone in the ketone tower top product is ensured by the limitation of the separation capability of the intermediate product and the ketone tower.
