Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of separation engineering of acetic acid preparation from synthesis gas and absolute ethyl alcohol preparation from hydrogenation, and relates to a method for separating an ethyl alcohol-water azeotrope in a hydrogenation product by a dissolved salt extraction rectification method. The rectifying tower for extractive distillation and separation consists of three sections, namely a rectifying section, an extracting section and a stripping section. An extractant feeding hole is arranged between the rectifying section and the extracting section; a raw material feeding hole is arranged between the extraction section and the stripping section. The raw material feeding composition of the tower is a solution (ethanol content is 95% by weight) formed by ethanol-water azeotropy, and the extracting agent feeding composition is (5-20% by weight) potassium acetate- (90-95% by weight) ethanol. When the feeding amount of the extracting agent is 12mL/min, the volume ratio of the extracting agent to the raw material is 1: 1-3: 1, and the reflux ratio is 1: 1-1: 3, more than 99.8 wt% of absolute ethyl alcohol can be extracted from the top of the tower, and the extraction amount is about 20 mL/min; the tower bottom is a potassium acetate solution diluted by separating residual water, and the potassium acetate solution can be recycled after negative pressure dehydration. The method for extracting and rectifying the dissolved salt realizes the separation of the ethanol-water near azeotrope system to obtain the absolute ethanol, simplifies the separation process of the system, reduces the separation difficulty, and saves the equipment investment and the operation cost.

Background
The fuel ethanol is a clean fuel additive which is widely popularized in China at the present stage. The main production routes of ethanol at home and abroad are divided into three routes, namely a biological fermentation route, an ethylene hydration route and a synthesis gas route. The raw materials of the biological fermentation route mainly comprise crops such as corn, arrowroot and wheat, and are sometimes restricted by a series of non-resistant factors, and if the yield of grains is reduced due to weather factors, the raw material supply is inevitably impacted, and the problem of competing for grains with people is very easily caused. The ethylene hydration route is divided into an indirect hydration method and a direct hydration method, and is suitable for countries or regions with rich petroleum resources. The synthetic gas route comprises a novel synthetic gas fermentation method, a method for preparing ethanol by hydrogenating acetic acid or acetic ester from synthetic gas, a method for preparing ethanol by hydrogenating the synthetic gas through methanol, dimethyl ether and methyl acetate, a method for directly preparing the ethanol from the synthetic gas, and the like, wherein the method for preparing the ethanol from the synthetic gas through hydrogenating the acetic acid meets the energy framework of 'rich coal and less oil' in China, can meet the market demand of fuel ethanol, and is also beneficial to relieving the current situation of surplus acetic acid production capacity in China.
The main products of ethanol preparation by acetic acid hydrogenation are ethanol and water, and a binary azeotrope of 4.4 wt% water and 95.6 wt% ethanol (normal pressure boiling point 78.17 ℃) exists between the ethanol and the water. The ordinary distillation operation can not separate azeotrope, the extraction distillation and azeotropic distillation separation azeotrope system is usually adopted in industry, the salt-dissolving extraction distillation is a novel special distillation separation mode, the salt substance is added into the system to change the relative volatility among the components and eliminate the azeotropic point, the solvent ratio is low, the energy consumption is low, the salt can not be mixed into the light component on the top of the tower, the dissolved salt is widely adopted as a green environment-friendly extractant in recent years, and the research value in the azeotrope separation aspect is very high. Regarding the rectification separation of the dissolved salt of the alcohol-water system, the soluble salt extracting agents such as sodium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium acetate and the like are usually selected, and in consideration of the corrosion problem of chloride ions in calcium chloride and the like to equipment, the invention selects potassium acetate, sodium acetate, calcium acetate and the like as the extracting agents to separate and refine the absolute ethyl alcohol.
