Description

System and method for producing sulfolane
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of desulfurization, in particular to a system and a method for producing sulfolane.
Background
Sulfolane is a non-protonic, strongly polar and water-soluble organic sulfur solvent, and has the advantages of good thermal stability, strong dissolving capacity, high selectivity, weak corrosion to equipment, low toxicity to human bodies and the like. Sulfolane is used in arene extraction, as well as in reaction solvent, gas purification, fatty acid fractionation, etc. and may be also used in polymer, chemical fiber industry, product recovery and other special purposes.
At present, the synthesis process of sulfolane adopts a sulfolene hydrogenation method, i.e. 1, 3-butadiene and sulfur dioxide react to generate sulfolene in the presence of a polymerization inhibitor, and then the sulfolene is catalytically hydrogenated to obtain the sulfolane. The process generally comprises four steps in actual production: a synthesis step, a desulfurization step, a hydrogenation step and a refining step. Wherein, the function of the desulfurization step is to remove the unreacted sulfur dioxide in the synthesis reaction process, reduce the concentration of the unreacted sulfur dioxide and prevent the catalyst from being poisoned, so as to be beneficial to the smooth operation of the hydrogenation reaction. At present, the processes of the desulfurization part of the sulfolene product mainly comprise stripping, flash evaporation, chemical method desulfurization and the like. From the viewpoint of material recovery, most of the sulfur dioxide in the sulfolene is separated and recovered by a flash evaporation method, and then the residual sulfur dioxide in the sulfolene is removed by blowing.
The sulfolane production technologies disclosed in patent documents GB1123533, JP2012158543 and CN 102020632 all include a sulfur dioxide stripping step. However, after the completion of the stripping, the preparation of the hydrogenation solution is not performed immediately, but the stripped sulfolene is sent to a buffer tank or a preparation kettle through a pipeline to prepare the hydrogenation solution. Sulfolene has a high freezing point and generally becomes a solid at temperatures below 65 ℃, so that the temperature needs to be kept above 65 ℃ during stripping and transportation. At a temperature of above 65 ℃, sulfolene is unstable in property, is easy to decompose, generates a large amount of sulfur dioxide, and thus the blowing effect is greatly reduced. After the hydrogenation liquid is prepared, the freezing point of the hydrogenation liquid is lower than that of the sulfolene, so the hydrogenation liquid is prepared firstly, and then the stripping and conveying can be carried out at a lower temperature, so that the decomposition of the sulfolene is inhibited. However, the solubility of sulfur dioxide in sulfolane is much higher than that of sulfolene, which makes the difficulty of stripping hydrogenated liquid much higher than that of stripping sulfolane, and usually a method of high temperature, negative pressure or increasing gas-liquid ratio is used for stripping, so the scheme of preparing hydrogenated liquid first and then stripping brings about greater energy consumption and material consumption loss.

As described in the background, the prior art processes for producing sulfolane have problems of low life of the hydrogenation catalyst, inconvenience of continuous operation, and large loss of energy and material consumption. The inventors of the present application studied in view of the above problems and proposed a system for producing sulfolane, as shown in fig. 1, comprising a first stripping column 1, a hydrogenation apparatus 3 and a second stripping column 2, the first stripping column 1 having a sulfolane reflux inlet 11 and a first liquid phase outlet 9 which are communicated; the hydrogenation device 3 is communicated with a first liquid phase outlet 9; the second stripping tower 2 is communicated with an outlet of the hydrogenation device 3, the second stripping tower 2 is provided with a sulfolane reflux outlet and a second liquid phase outlet 15, and the sulfolane reflux outlet is communicated with a sulfolane reflux inlet 11.
