Description

Propylene oxide preparation device and preparation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fine chemical engineering, and particularly relates to a propylene oxide preparation device and a preparation method.
Background
Propylene oxide is an important propylene derivative, is mainly used for producing polyether polyol, propylene glycol ether, isopropanolamine, propylene carbonate and the like, is one of main raw materials for manufacturing polyurethane, nonionic surfactant, emulsifying agent, oilfield demulsifier, flame retardant, plasticizer, lubricating oil and the like, and has wide application in industries such as petroleum, chemical industry, pesticide, textile, daily chemicals and the like.
Currently, the production methods of propylene oxide mainly include chlorohydrin method, co-oxidation method and hydrogen peroxide direct oxidation method (HPPO method). The three wastes discharge amount of the chlorohydrin method is large, the environmental pollution is serious, the comprehensive treatment difficulty is large, and the development of the chlorohydrin method is limited. The co-oxidation method is also called as 'Ha Kang Fa', and comprises an isobutane co-oxidation method and an ethylbenzene co-oxidation method, wherein isobutane or ethylbenzene and propylene are subjected to co-oxidation reaction to generate PO, and Tertiary Butyl Alcohol (TBA) or Styrene (SM) are co-produced.
In recent years, green environmental protection is the subject of advocacy in production and life, propylene and industrial hydrogen peroxide are taken as raw materials by an HPPO method, propylene oxide is directly oxidized under the catalysis of a titanium-silicon molecular sieve catalyst, the process flow is simple, the reaction condition is mild, no harmful gas is discharged in the whole production process, the generated sewage can reach the standard for discharge after general treatment, and the advantages of green environmental protection, low production cost and the like become one of the fastest-expanding and most promising processes at present. The foreign patent manufacturer having the technology is mainly the union of the German winning group and the Thysen Krupp group, and the union of the Basf company and the Daochi company, and the domestic autonomous research and development technology is in the key period of industrial application.
The HPPO has the key technical problems of high reaction heat release, limited catalyst mass transfer, influence on selectivity and improvement of catalyst life. At present, the industrialized HPPO process is realized by using methanol as a solvent and oxidizing propylene to synthesize propylene oxide under the action of a titanium-silicon molecular sieve in an axial fixed bed reactor, wherein the reaction is a strong exothermic reaction, the unit reaction heat is about 318kJ/mol, the reaction heat needs to be removed, otherwise, heat accumulation and hydrogen peroxide decomposition are easy, the explosion risk occurs, the reaction selectivity is poor, byproducts are more, meanwhile, the axial fixed bed materials are easy to be unevenly distributed, the phenomenon of 'flying temperature' is easy to occur in part of a catalyst layer, the service life of the catalyst is shortened, and the catalyst needs to be regenerated once every one to two months, so that the economic benefit of enterprises is seriously influenced.
Chinese patent CN107417645B discloses a method of using corrugated plates as a heat transfer plate group, using 4 series corrugated plate reactors, forcibly circulating the circulating cooling water to optimize heat removal and controlling the temperature of the circulating cooling water through a thermometer and a regulating valve to uniform the reaction temperature. Solves the problems of poor heat transfer effect and short service life of the catalyst existing in the traditional fixed bed reactor. However, the gaps among the corrugated plates of the plate reactor are small, and the catalyst is difficult to assemble and disassemble.
Chinese patent CN109999727a discloses a method for synthesizing propylene oxide with a tubular fixed bed reactor, which comprises: (1) A multi-layer titanium silicalite molecular sieve catalyst is filled in the tube side of the tube type fixed bed reactor, the multi-layer titanium silicalite molecular sieve catalyst is filled along the increasing direction of the skeleton titanium content, and the ratio of the n-1 layer titanium silicalite molecular sieve catalyst to the n layer titanium silicalite molecular sieve catalyst is 1:1.5-5; (2) And (3) conveying propylene, hydrogen peroxide, methanol and an auxiliary agent into the tubular fixed bed reactor, wherein the feeding direction is consistent with the increasing direction of the activity of the multilayer titanium-silicon molecular sieve catalyst, and collecting a reaction discharge port material after the reaction is finished. The invention has even heat release, and the temperature rise of the hot spot in the tube side is small. But adopts a plurality of types of catalysts for layered filling, the catalysts are filled in each pipeline, the filling operation requirement on the catalysts is high, and the catalysts are not easy to unload.
Chinese patent CN109180611a discloses a feeding and distributing device and method for preparing propylene oxide by hydrogen peroxide direct oxidation method with sectional injection of raw materials, wherein the process for preparing propylene oxide by hydrogen peroxide direct oxidation method adopts at least two groups of reaction units connected in series, and the raw materials are fed into each reaction unit in sections, so that the problem of uneven distribution of hydrogen peroxide in the reactor is solved, the conversion rate of hydrogen peroxide and the yield of propylene oxide are improved, and the potential safety hazard is reduced. The axial fixed bed reactors are adopted for each group of reactors, so that the problem of uniform distribution of materials can not be well solved.
Chinese patent CN104130216B discloses a process for continuously producing propylene oxide by directly oxidizing propylene/propane mixed gas with hydrogen peroxide. In the reaction process, a fluidized bed circulation reactor is adopted, a fine-particle molecular sieve catalyst is adopted, the slurry discharge is used for respectively steaming out low-oxygen propylene/propane mixed gas and epoxypropane through a flash tower, catalyst-containing mother liquor is used for separating catalyst slurry and mother liquor through a membrane separator, after methanol is separated through flash evaporation, the residual high-oxygen propylene/propane mixed gas after the recovery solvent methanol is synchronously recovered and reacted in a high-oxygen propylene/propane absorption tower is recycled, and the catalyst slurry is returned to the reactor for recycling after being partially regenerated on line. However, the reaction product and the reaction material of the circulating reactor in the patent are seriously mixed back, the reaction efficiency is low, and the side reaction is increased.
As is clear from the analysis, in the prior art, a fixed bed reactor is adopted, and the reaction heat is removed from the reactor by a method of enhancing heat exchange, so that the problems of uneven material distribution, lag in temperature control, easy local supercooling or overheating, low propylene oxide selectivity and the like still exist although the reaction heat is improved compared with the traditional tubular reactor, the operation period is short, and the reaction heat needs to be regenerated every 1500-2000 hours. In addition, complicated reactors or reaction units have problems such as high equipment investment, difficult catalyst loading or replacement, and the like.
