Description

Reaction device, and glycolide production system and production method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical products, relates to the process production of glycolide, and particularly relates to a reaction device, a glycolide production system and a glycolide production method.
Background
Polyglycolic acid (PGA), also called polyglycolic acid or polyglycolide, is a polymer of glycolic acid, is gradually degraded into water and carbon dioxide in nature, exhibits good biodegradability, and is one of the most actively studied materials at present. However, the method of dehydrating and polycondensing glycolic acid as a starting material can only obtain polyglycolic acid having a low degree of polymerization. Low-polymerization-degree polyglycolic acid is insufficient in strength, melt processability, gas barrier property, and the like, and is too rapidly decomposed in the natural environment and in the living body, and when it is applied to many uses, it cannot satisfy the requirement of durability.
Glycolide is a cyclic dimer of glycolic acid, ring-opening polymerization of glycolide is a mature method for preparing polyglycolic acid, a polyglycolic acid product with high relative molecular mass can be obtained by the method, and the purity of glycolide is directly related to the performance of polyglycolic acid.
At present, glycolide is mainly prepared by high-temperature depolymerization of polyglycolic acid, the process takes low-molecular-weight polyglycolic acid as a raw material, crude glycolide is obtained after depolymerization and cooling collection at high temperature, and the crude glycolide is purified by subsequent rectification. Glycolide is highly heat-sensitive and is highly susceptible to self-polymerization, coking, and hydrolysis in the molten state. The depolymerization reaction is usually carried out in a tank reactor, and a large amount of coking and pipeline blockage are caused by long-time high-temperature boiling of raw materials, so that the yield and the product purity are greatly influenced. In addition, the crude glycolide can generate self-polymerization in a tower bottom and a reboiler through rectification and refining, so that a large amount of raw materials are lost, and related pipelines are easily blocked. In order to alleviate the problem of self-polymerization of crude glycolide and to improve the product yield, a solvent azeotropic method is currently reported as a more extensive depolymerization method.
The Chinese invention patent application (application publication No. CN107868076A, application publication No. 2018-4-3) discloses that glycolic acid crystals and a catalyst are mixed to carry out polycondensation reaction to obtain glycolic acid oligomers, polyether solvents are added into the system, high-temperature depolymerization is carried out, and the solvents and glycolide are co-distilled.
Chinese invention patent application (application publication No. CN104903306A, application publication date: 2015-9-9) discloses a method for producing glycolide, which comprises heating Glycolic Acid Oligomer (GAO) to depolymerize it, comprising: a step 1 of heating a mixture containing a polar organic solvent and GAO having a terminal carboxyl group concentration of 400eq/t or less to a depolymerization temperature of the GAO under normal pressure or reduced pressure; a step 2 of continuing heating at the temperature to depolymerize the GAO and distilling the produced GL and the solvent out of the depolymerization reaction system; and a step 3 of obtaining GL from the co-distillate; the GAO is preferably prepared by a method for producing GAO comprising a step of condensing glycolic acid and a step of dehydrating GA by continuing heating GA together with a polar organic solvent or a depolymerization reaction liquid to continue the condensation reaction of GA.
Chinese invention patent application (application publication No. CN102712617A, application publication date: 2012-10-3) discloses a method for producing glycolide, comprising the step of heating a mixture containing a glycolic acid oligomer, a high-boiling polar organic solvent having a boiling point of 230-450 ℃, and a tin compound to a temperature at which the glycolic acid oligomer is depolymerized under normal pressure or reduced pressure, thereby dissolving the glycolic acid oligomer in the high-boiling polar organic solvent; heating the solution in which the glycolic acid oligomer is dissolved to a temperature at which the glycolic acid oligomer is depolymerized under normal pressure or reduced pressure, thereby depolymerizing the glycolic acid oligomer in the solution to produce glycolide, and co-distilling the high-boiling polar organic solvent and the produced glycolide out of the depolymerization reaction system.
These patents all report that a high boiling polar solvent and a solubilizer are added and heated to form a liquid phase of glycolic acid oligomer, and many depolymerization solvents are liable to cause thermal deterioration during the reaction, and are liable to react with glycolide to lower the product yield. In addition, in order to separate the distilled glycolide from the solvent, solvent washing and solvent recovery steps are required, which causes mutual contamination of the solvents and increase in energy consumption, and therefore, the glycolide tends to be eliminated in industrial production.
In addition, the glycolide is purified by adopting a recrystallization method. The Chinese invention patent application (application publication number: CN107868075A) discloses a method for refining glycolide, which comprises the following steps: 1) adding a recrystallization solvent to the crude glycolide at room temperature; 2) heating and dissolving the mixture of crude glycolide and recrystallization solvent under the protection of inert gas, cooling the filtrate to below 25 ℃ after heat filtration to crystallize and separate out glycolide, filtering to remove liquid phase, and drying the obtained solid to obtain recrystallized glycolide; 3) mixing the recrystallized glycolide obtained in the previous step with a dried poor solvent, stirring at room temperature, and filtering; 4) repeating the step 3) for at least two times, and carrying out vacuum drying on the obtained solid to obtain the refined glycolide. The recrystallization method results in a large amount of solvent consumption and solvent residue, and environmental protection and discharge problems cause that the method cannot be widely applied in large-scale industrial processes.
