Abstract

The production process includes the evaporation and oxidation of methanol and the absorption of formaldehyde. There are efficient adsorption filters connected to front and back of the methanol evaporator separately, the crude methanol is twice adsorbed and filtered to reduce the content of paraffin and other harmful impurity from 1 wt% to 0.1 wt% and to ensure no poisoning of silver catalyst in oxidizing tower. In the present invention, crude methanol of 80-95 wt% purity is used to replace refined methanol of 98-99 wt% purity to prepare formaldehyde solution of 37 wt%, and this reduces power consumption and production cost.

Description

A kind of method of producing formaldehyde by using crude methanol as coproduct of synthetic ammonia
The present invention relates to a kind ofly under the silver catalyst effect, methyl alcohol and air generation oxidative dehydrogenation prepare the method for formaldehyde, relate to the method that the thick methyl alcohol of synthetic ammonia coproducing prepares formaldehyde or rather.
In prior art CN1066264, disclose a kind of under silver catalyst, methyl alcohol and air generation oxidative dehydrogenation generate the method for formaldehyde, this technology utilizes the sensible heat of reaction product directly as the superheater thermal source, can reduce the batching steam of 30~double centner/ton (product); Utilize the methyl alcohol of gaseous reaction product condensation latent heat direct evaporation about 80%.Set up methanol rectifying tower, solve base of evaporator water and impurity enriched problem, remove the impurity that makes poisoning of catalyst, prolonged the work-ing life of silver catalyst, reduced the unit consumption of methyl alcohol.But the methanol solution of 15%~25% (weight) that this technology is drawn from the methanol evaporator bottom will become the refined methanol of 98%~99% (weight) through rectifying tower rectifying, then, and again with refined methanol system formaldehyde.Methanol rectification will consume a large amount of heat energy, as if getting rid of this operation of methanol rectification, can make the output height again, and the measured formaldehyde of matter then should just improve with rationally more in invention.
The objective of the invention is to utilize the thick methyl alcohol (methanol content is 80~95% (weight)) of synthetic ammonia coproducing directly to prepare the industrial formol of formaldehyde content 〉=37% (weight).Get rid of methanol rectification operation of the prior art, saved energy consumption, reduced production cost, improved economic benefit.
The present invention is the method for a producing formaldehyde by using crude methanol as coproduct of synthetic ammonia, be included under the katalysis of silver catalyst, methyl alcohol and air generation oxidative dehydrogenation generate formaldehyde, and production technique comprises: the absorption of evaporation, oxidation and the formaldehyde of thick methyl alcohol is characterized in that:
1) methyl alcohol that evaporates for methanol evaporator is that the methanol content of synthetic ammonia coproducing alcohol tower production is the thick methyl alcohol of 80~95% (weight),
2) respectively connecting an adsorption filter at methanol evaporator forward and backward, be filled with commercially available alkaline gac in the strainer, gac is placed on that two layers of stainless steel sift are online, and screen cloth is being supported by sieve plate,
3) a paraffin upflow tube is installed at the middle part of methanol evaporator.
The methanol content that joins pure tower production from synthetic ammonia is to contain 1% normal alkane (paraffin) and iron etc. the thick methyl alcohol of 80%-95% (weight) to the silver catalyst detrimental impurity.Respectively connecting a charcoal absorption strainer at methanol evaporator forward and backward, making liquid crude methanol before entering vaporizer, carry out one time contaminant filter earlier.The liquid crude methanol that enters vaporizer enters a back charcoal absorption strainer again from the outflow of vaporizer lower pipelines and carries out adsorption filtration again after heating, content through detrimental impurity in the thick methyl alcohol material after twice adsorption filtration drops to about 0.1% (weight) from 1% (weight), guaranteed that the silver catalyst in the oxidizing tower of back is not poisoned by impurity, prolong catalyst life, guaranteed normally carrying out of methanol catalytic oxidation process.
It is for the objectionable impuritiess such as paraffin of remaining 0.1% (weight) in the thick methyl alcohol are done further to remove that the vaporizer middle part is provided with the paraffin upflow tube.When the vaporization temperature in the vaporizer reaches 70 ℃, open upflow tube, emit the vasoliniment that contains that has liquefied in the material, contain vasoliniment cooling after, decant impurity such as paraffin, remaining methanol aqueous solution reclaims the Returning evaporimeter utilization.Like this, just can guarantee to enter the purity of the methanol vapor of oxidizing tower, avoid the silver catalyst in the oxidizing tower to be poisoned by impurity.
The particle diameter of the alkaline activated carbon among the present invention in the adsorption filter is Φ 1.5 * 4mm~3.0 * 6mm, and the mesh of stainless steel mesh is 150~200 orders, and the aperture of sieve plate is Φ 5~Φ 15mm.
The loading level of gac can according to how many decisions of charging, and the packed space of gac is 0.2~0.6m on the screen cloth 3
The methyl alcohol that comes out from vaporizer among the present invention, air and steam enter oxidizing tower behind make up water steam material consists of methyl alcohol: air: the mol ratio of water vapor equals 1: 1.96: 1.58.
Used silver catalyst is catalyst for electrolytic silver or float stone silver catalyst in the oxidizing tower of methanol oxidation of the present invention.
The present invention respectively connects a charcoal absorption strainer in the front and back of methanol evaporator, makes thick methyl alcohol through forward and backward twice adsorption filtration, and the content of detrimental impurity such as paraffin, iron is reduced to 0.1% (weight) from 1% (weight) in the thick methyl alcohol material.Use simultaneously the paraffin upflow tube at vaporizer middle part again, constantly remove remaining detrimental impurity in the material, guaranteed normally carrying out of methanol oxidation formaldehyde technology.Replacing concentration with the thick methyl alcohol of 80~95% (weight) is that the refined methanol of 98~99% (weight) prepares the formaldehyde of content greater than 37% (weight).Get rid of methanol rectification operation of the prior art, saved energy consumption, reduced production cost, improved economic benefit.
The quality product of the technical grade formaldehyde that the present invention makes reaches GB9009-88 top grade product index.
Formaldehyde products to thick methyl alcohol system formaldehyde of the present invention and refined methanol system formaldehyde is carried out aggregation test, and test result shows that the quality product of the thick methyl alcohol system formaldehyde of the present invention is better than the quality product of prior art refined methanol system formaldehyde.Test result is as shown in the table: the oxymethylene polymerization test
Refined methanol system formaldehyde Thick methyl alcohol system formaldehyde
The turbid phenomenon time opening (h) ????1 ????2
24 hours postprecipitation amounts ????2 ????1
48 hours postprecipitation amounts ????2 ????1
From table, can find out, the formaldehyde that thick methyl alcohol makes makes late 1 hour of oxymethylene polymerization time than refined methanol, and polymerization amount lacks 1 times, and the storage of this PARA FORMALDEHYDE PRILLS(91,95), transportation have extraordinary effect, illustrates that the aggregation property of the formaldehyde of thick methanol production is better than the formaldehyde that refined methanol is produced.
Compare with refined methanol system formaldehyde, the cost of thick methyl alcohol system formaldehyde reduces more than 10%.Adopt thick methyl alcohol system formaldehyde than descending 66.7 yuan,, can reduce cost every year 1000000 yuan to produce 15000 tons of calculating of formaldehyde per year with refined methanol system formaldehyde formaldehyde cost per ton.
