The common solvent is mainly produced by using non-renewable petroleum as a raw material, a large amount of carbon dioxide and volatile organic pollutants (VOCs) are released in the production process, and the ethyl lactate organic solvent replaces the traditional solvent (such as halogenated solvents, ethers, chlorofluorocarbon solvents and the like) to play a vital role in reducing carbon/pollution emission in China.
Ethyl lactate, also known as alpha-hydroxypropionic acid ethyl ester, has a molecular formula of C5H10O3The melting point is 26 ℃, the boiling point is 154.5 ℃, the solvent is a green environment-friendly solvent, has good biodegradability, and can be widely applied to different chemical fields such as spices, solvents, lubricants, plasticizers and the like. The ethyl lactate is colorless and slightly odorous liquid, naturally exists in fruits such as pineapples, oranges, apples and the like, has good solubility, is miscible with water, and can be dissolved in alcohol, aromatic hydrocarbon, ester, hydrocarbon and oil. According to the reports of the U.S. department of energy, more than 80% of conventional solvents (especially halogenated hydrocarbons) will be replaced by ethyl lactate in the world in the future, and the production method has high energy consumption and high cost, so that the wide application in industry is limited, and the development of energy-saving, low-cost and environment-friendly ethyl lactate production method is urgent.
At present, the traditional process for producing ethyl lactate mainly adopts lactic acid and ethanol as raw materials, firstly generates ethyl lactate through catalytic reaction, and then purifies the ethyl lactate in the reaction product and recovers unreacted raw materials through rectification or flash separation procedures after the reaction is finished. The traditional production has the problems of longer process route, higher investment cost and the like, so the reactive distillation process is generated successively, the catalytic reaction and the distillation separation are integrated in the same equipment, the cost is reduced, in order to improve the conversion rate of the reaction, the excessive ethanol and water are adopted to form an azeotrope to be extracted from the top of the tower to promote the forward reaction, and the residual ethanol is recycled by the distillation mode. The ethanol residue in the process results in long subsequent separation flow, high energy consumption for separating the ethanol and water azeotrope and low yield of ethyl lactate. Patents and literature on ethyl lactate reaction processes are reported below:

According to the method, the molar ratio of ethanol to lactic acid is 3: 1-5: 1, the temperature of a reboiler at a tower kettle is 80-90 ℃, so that the tower kettle liquid still contains water and unreacted ethanol, the separation of the water and the ethanol from ethyl lactate is not realized, and the yield of subsequent separation products is reduced.

The tower has more areas and more complex design, the molar ratio of fresh ethanol to lactic acid is 1.05-1.3: 1, and the energy consumption for separating the ethanol from the water azeotrope is higher.

After the esterification reaction is finished, sodium carbonate is added to neutralize concentrated H2SO4And cooling the esterification liquid and then carrying out reduced pressure distillation to obtain the ethyl lactate product. The catalyst is concentrated H2SO4Side reactions are easy to occur, the product yield is reduced, more three wastes are generated, the recycling is difficult, the process flow is complex, and the investment and operation cost is high.
Patent CN107032984A discloses a continuous ethyl lactate synthesis method, which comprises two working sections of reaction and separation, wherein the molar ratio of ethanol to lactic acid is 2: 1-4: 1, the raw material is pumped into a fixed bed reactor to perform catalytic esterification reaction to obtain an ethyl lactate crude product, and then the ethyl lactate crude product sequentially enters a rough separation tower, an ethanol tower, a lactic acid tower and an ethyl lactate tower to obtain food-grade ethyl lactate. The method has the advantages of longer process flow, higher equipment investment and operation cost, azeotropic formation of ethanol and water, and higher recovery energy consumption caused by excessive ethanol.
