The mixture F enters from the middle part of a first prefractionation section of the tower to finish the separation of glycerin and glyceric acid; and (3) separating the light components from the glycerol in the main tower section, laterally extracting the glycerol from the middle part of the main tower section of the tower, extracting the light components from the top of the public rectifying section, and extracting the heavy component glyceric acid from the bottom of the public stripping section. The light component enters the middle part of a second prefractionation section of the tower, and glycolic acid, glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone are obtained from the top of the tower, the middle part of the main tower section and the bottom of the tower respectively, so that the separation of selective oxidation products of the glycerol is realized. Under the same separation requirement, compared with the conventional four-tower vacuum rectification, the method can reduce equipment investment and heat load of a tower top condenser and a tower bottom reboiler, and solves the problem of high energy consumption in the rectification process.

Description

Separation method of glyceric acid product prepared by glycerol oxidation
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biomass chemical industry, and particularly relates to a preparation method of glyceric acid, in particular to a method for separating and purifying glyceric acid under reduced pressure.
Background
In recent years, due to the increasing exhaustion of fossil resources, research and popularization of renewable alternative energy sources are increasingly important. Biodiesel is considered as a renewable energy source with development prospect due to the advantages of good safety performance, environmental friendliness, renewable raw material sources, and the like. However, since a large amount of glycerin (the side yield is 10 wt%) is produced in the production process of biodiesel, the glycerin yield is far greater than that, and a great impact is caused to the conventional glycerin production enterprises. Therefore, the research of the conversion of glycerol into high value-added products has important practical significance. At present, the selective oxidation of glycerol is one of the important ways of the conversion and utilization of the glycerol, and a plurality of different carboxylic acid products (such as glyceric acid, dihydroxyacetone, glyceraldehyde and the like) can be obtained, and have great potential value in the industries of foods, medicines and the like. Therefore, in recent years, research on the selective oxidation of glycerol to produce carboxylic acids with high added value has been increasing.
However, the prior studies have little relevance to how to isolate glycerol oxidation products. The reason is mainly that the compounds such as glycerol, glycollic acid, glyceraldehyde, dihydroxyacetone and the like are heat-sensitive high-boiling-point compounds, are easy to decompose or polymerize when heated, and cannot be separated by adopting a conventional rectification means. And other separation methods such as ion exchange resin, membrane separation and the like are adopted, so that a glyceric acid product with high purity cannot be obtained. Therefore, based on the molecular distillation theory, the method of vacuum rectification is adopted to control the temperature of the tower bottom to be lower than the decomposition or polymerization temperature of the glycerin oxidation product, which is clearly a better way for separating the glycerin oxidation product.
For the separation of five-component glycolic acid, glyceraldehyde, dihydroxyacetone, glycerol and glyceric acid, at least four towers are needed to achieve the required separation effect by adopting a conventional vacuum rectifying tower, but the method has the defects of large investment, large energy consumption and high operation cost.
In view of this, the present invention has been made.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to improve the separation efficiency of glyceric acid which is a glycerol oxidation product, reduce energy consumption and the like.
The invention relates to a separation method for preparing glyceric acid products by oxidizing glycerol, which comprises the steps of obtaining a mixture F after the glyceric acid products are dehydrated, obtaining three fractions after the mixture is rectified and separated by a first partition tower, wherein the first fraction mainly comprises a mixture of glycolic acid, glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone, the second fraction mainly comprises glycerol, and the third fraction mainly comprises glyceraldehyde;
and rectifying and separating the first fraction by a second partition tower to obtain a fourth fraction, a fifth fraction and a sixth fraction, wherein the fourth fraction mainly comprises glycolic acid, the fifth fraction mainly comprises glyceraldehyde, and the sixth fraction mainly comprises dihydroxyacetone.
The preparation method of glyceric acid comprises the following steps: the glycerol and the oxidant are subjected to oxidation reaction under the action of a catalyst, the reaction temperature is 20-100 ℃, and the reaction pressure is 0.1-1.5 MPa, so that the product containing glyceric acid is obtained.
In the application, the glyceric acid mixture obtained by catalytic oxidation of glycerol can be separated from four substances of glycolic acid, glycerol, glyceric acid, glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone by adopting a method of rectifying in a partition tower through two partition towers, so that the separation efficiency is high, and the energy consumption is reduced. By controlling the rectification conditions, the purity of the five separated products is good.
