Description

Method for preparing dimethyl maleate by using maleic anhydride tail gas
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing dimethyl maleate by using maleic anhydride tail gas.
Background
The high-temperature mixed gas containing maleic anhydride is obtained by oxidizing n-butane as a raw material, and at present, two methods are mainly adopted for recovering the maleic anhydride, including a water recovery process and an organic solvent recovery process.
The water recovery process has the advantages of using cheap and easily available water as the absorbent and having the characteristic of high chemical absorption rate. However, maleic acid and fumaric acid produced by the reaction of maleic anhydride with water tend to corrode equipment to clog pipes, resulting in lower yields of maleic anhydride and a large amount of wastewater.
The organic solvent absorption process adopts an organic solvent as an absorbent to absorb maleic anhydride, and the organic solvent commonly adopted at present comprises dibutyl phthalate, dibutyl hexahydrophthalate and diisobutyl hexahydrophthalate. The organic solvent absorption process effectively overcomes the defects of easy corrosion of equipment, low maleic anhydride yield and large wastewater amount existing in the water absorption process, and gradually replaces the water recovery process to become a main recovery method of maleic anhydride. However, the organic solvent has higher cost, and the maleic anhydride product can be obtained only by rectification and separation after the maleic anhydride is absorbed, so that the organic solvent has higher energy consumption and is not suitable for industrial production.
