Description

Method for separating cyclohexane and tert-butyl alcohol by liquid-liquid extraction-flash evaporation
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of chemical separation and purification, and particularly relates to a method for separating a mixture of cyclohexane and tert-butyl alcohol by liquid-liquid extraction-flash evaporation, and further relates to a method for separating cyclohexane and tert-butyl alcohol by liquid-liquid extraction-flash evaporation by taking imidazole ionic liquid as an extracting agent and firstly adopting an extraction tower and then adopting a flash tank.
Background
Cyclohexane is useful as a solvent, binder diluent, and oil extractant for rubbers, paints, and varnishes. Tert-butanol is a widely used organic solvent. It is commonly used as a gasoline additive, a solvent for organic reaction processes, and a coating. The separation of tert-butanol and water during the co-oxidation of propylene/isobutane is a relatively difficult matter. For the tertiary butanol dehydration system, cyclohexane is typically selected as the entrainer. Thus, during the separation, a mixture of cyclohexane and tert-butanol is produced. It has been a question of how to separate the cyclohexane-tert-butanol azeotrope. At present, various methods for separating the azeotrope exist, such as pressure swing distillation, azeotropic distillation, extractive distillation and the like. Furthermore, liquid-liquid extraction is also an effective method. The ionic liquid is a room temperature liquid and is considered as a green environment-friendly solvent. In recent years, ionic liquids have attracted extensive attention of researchers due to their advantages of low volatility, environmental friendliness, good thermal stability, strong solubility, designability, and the like. These excellent properties make them highly effective functional compounds in many fields. In the field of separation and purification, ionic liquids are distinguished by their good solubility in organic and inorganic substances.
Cyclohexane and tert-butanol form an azeotrope with an azeotropic point of 71.91 ℃ at atmospheric pressure, wherein the mass fraction of cyclohexane is 66.74% and the mass fraction of water is 33.26%. Because of the existence of azeotrope in the mixture, the effective separation can not be realized by adopting the common rectification method.
Chinese patent CN103539663B discloses a method for separating ethyl acetate from cyclohexane, phenol is used as an extractant, and a mixture is separated by extractive distillation. However, the method adopts carcinogenic substance phenol as an extracting agent, and has great harm to human bodies and environment.
Chinese patent CN108976115A discloses a method for separating cyclohexane and acetic acid, which uses water as an entrainer, adopts an azeotropic distillation method to separate cyclohexane and acetic acid, and obtains cyclohexane with acetic acid content of 1-100 ppm at the tower top.
The prior cyclohexane treatment and separation technology has the problems of resource waste, high energy consumption, low removal rate and the like.
The invention adopts a liquid-liquid extraction-flash evaporation device to realize the high-purity recovery of cyclohexane in a cyclohexane-tert-butanol mixture, imidazole ionic liquid is taken as an extracting agent, and the characteristic of high solubility of tert-butanol in the extracting agent is utilized to realize that the purity of separated cyclohexane is up to more than 99.95 percent; the characteristic that the extracting agent has high boiling point and does not form an azeotrope with other substances is utilized, so that the extracting agent can be recycled, the separation cost is reduced, and the method has low energy consumption and simple process.
