Description

Process for synthesizing electronic grade diethyl carbonate by oxidative carbonylation of catalytic distillation ethanol
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of nonmetallic compound diethyl carbonate, in particular to a process for synthesizing electronic grade diethyl carbonate by oxidative carbonylation of catalytic distillation ethanol.
Background
Diethyl carbonate (DEC) is an important downstream product of ethanol, and has attracted considerable attention because of its excellent biodegradability, low toxicity, good solubility, and the like. The molecule contains ethyl-C 2 H 5 ethoxy-OC 2 H 5 Carbonyl c=o and the like, and thus exhibits a versatile adjustable chemical reactivity, can be used as an important chemical synthesis intermediate, and is widely used as a solvent for nitrocellulose, natural and synthetic resins. More importantly, the DEC has the advantages of excellent dissolution performance, low viscosity, small dielectric constant, capability of being mixed and dissolved with various organic solvents such as alcohol, ether, ketoester and the like, and is widely applied to the lithium battery electrolyte industry. The electrolyte is the blood of the power battery, is prepared by preparing and canning lithium salt (solute), solvent and additive, and accounts for 6-8% of the cost of the power battery. The ion-exchange type power battery is an important carrier for ion transmission in the power battery, and has obvious influence on battery safety, cycle life, charge-discharge multiplying power, high-low temperature performance and energy density. The electrolyte additive adopts a mixed solvent system and mainly consists of various carbonates such as dimethyl carbonate (DMC, 30-40%), ethylene carbonate (EC, 20-30%), diethyl carbonate (DEC, 10-15%), ethylmethyl carbonate (EMC, 10-15%), propylene carbonate (PC, 5-10%). Whereas DEC has a better fuel/water distribution coefficient than DMC, a higher oxygen content (40.6%) than methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) (18.2%), thus having a broad development market and application prospect. In addition, because of the difficulty in sustainable supply of conventional fossil energy and the environmental problems caused thereby, although renewable energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, water energy, and biomass energy can provide clean energy, power storage is considered to be a key innovative challenge in achieving the goal of renewable energy. Through development for over twenty years, china becomes the biggest world for producing and consuming lithium ion batteries in production technologyThe operation is in a tripod-standing situation with japan and korea. In recent years, under the support of policies, the new energy automobile industry in China rapidly develops, the production and sales amount is rapidly increased, the power battery demand is driven to be greatly expanded, the production and sales amount of new energy automobiles in 2022 year all year round respectively reach 705.8 ten thousand and 688.7 ten thousand, and the increase of 96.9% and 93.4% is respectively realized. At present, the lithium ion battery is widely applied to the fields of electronic communication and transportation due to the advantages of excellent energy density, cycle stability, charge-discharge efficiency and the like, and according to statistics, the global battery-level solvent requirement of 2025 is about 187.1 ten thousand tons, the Chinese battery-level solvent requirement is calculated according to the statistics, the speed is increased by 34.6% in the next 5 years, and the DEC requirement is 7.7 ten thousand tons. It is expected that the consumption of electrolyte solvents will continue to increase with the rapid development of new energy and power storage in the future, and DEC is a key raw material for electrolytes, and its market demand is rapidly rising.
The DEC can be classified into industrial grade and electronic grade according to purity, the industrial grade DEC can be used as solvent, additive of lubricating grease, organic synthetic raw material and common cleaning agent of lithium ion battery and electronic product, the electronic grade DEC can be used as electrolyte of high-end power battery, the purity is up to 99.999%, the water and ethanol content is lower than 2ppm, and no metal ion is detected. When the purity of the electrolyte additive is less than 99.9%, the decomposition potential is 4.6-4.9V, and the oxidation potential can be improved by more than 5.2V by improving the purity, and if the purity is further improved, the upper limit of the oxidation potential of DEC can be 6.7V. Thus, the purification of DEC is indispensable in the production process of a battery grade solvent, which is also one of the difficulties of the battery grade solvent production process.
At present, the main processes for synthesizing DEC (DEC) are transesterification, urea alcoholysis, ethanol and CO 2 The direct synthesis method and the ethanol oxidation-carbonylation method have the advantages of simple raw materials, short process flow, 85.7 percent of atomic utilization rate and the like, and are considered as the most promising green economic synthesis route. Particularly, the method has the advantages that the DEC byproducts produced by the ethanol oxidative carbonylation method are few, and the problems of complex subsequent purification process, large equipment investment and the like of the products can be avoided. In recent years, HMS, MCM-41 molecular sieve and active carbon are used as carriers to load CuCl catalystThe use of chemokines for the oxidative carbonylation of ethanol to DEC has been widely studied. Patent CN1379017a investigated the synergistic improvement of CO coordination ability of ethoxy to Cu in the catalytic process by adding electron donating ligands 1, 10-phenanthroline and N-methylimidazole to CuC1 catalyst, resulting in 13.6% ethanol conversion and 99.1% DEC selectivity. For another example, patent CN110252406B adopts mesoporous silica grafted by Schiff base as a carrier to load CuCl 2 -PdCl 2 The catalyst obtains higher DEC selectivity. Patent CN100500288C studied CuCl-CuCl 2 The pore diameter of the mesoporous carbon catalyst is single and adjustable, and the stable catalyst structure can inhibit the loss of the active component Cu to a certain extent. Also researchers obtained 18% DEC yields (energy. Fuel.,2002,16,177-181) over CuCl-PdCl-KOH/AC catalysts. Although the catalyst has a certain improvement on the activity of synthesizing DEC by oxidizing and carbonylating ethanol, the catalyst is used for loading CuCl/CuCl 2 The common problems of the catalyst are that the catalyst preparation scheme is slightly complicated, the catalyst life is short, the recovery is difficult and the reactor is corroded due to the loss of chloride ions in the reaction, which are also always problems in industrial production. Therefore, attention has recently been focused on chlorine-free copper-based catalysts to overcome the problem of catalyst deactivation caused by reactor corrosion and chlorine loss, mainly Cu-based catalysts and Cu-Pd-based co-catalysts, which are favored by a large number of researchers because of their low cost and excellent activity in the reaction, compared to expensive Pd-based catalysts.
