Description

The technology of catalytic distillation synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of phenol, fortified phenol or aromatic alcohol and methylcarbonate production technique and reaction unit under the compression rectification catalytic reaction condition through the transesterification reaction synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester.
Background technology
Diaryl carbonate particularly diphenyl carbonate (DPC) is subjected to the extensive concern of each side because of its wide application prospect, and its industrial production method mainly contains phosgenation, oxidation of phenol carbonyl process and ester-interchange method.Because phosgenation can cause environmental pollution and equipment corrosion, should not promote.Research to DPC both at home and abroad focuses mostly at oxidative carbonylation and ester-interchange method, but the catalyst efficiency that the oxidative carbonylation method is used is not high, realizes that the industrialization difficulty is very big.Ester-interchange method reaction conditions gentleness, the product yield height is so ester-interchange method is considered to the synthetic at present optimum method of DPC.But ester-interchange method is owing to be subjected to the restriction of thermodynamic(al)equilibrium, exists that per pass conversion is low, methylcarbonate (DMC) and by-product carbinol (CH 3OH) problem such as difficult separations, a whole set of technical process is comparatively complicated, syntheticly needs proceed step by step or adopts subregion to react and separating technology with separating.
In the reaction of phenol, fortified phenol or aromatic alcohol and DMC synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester, mainly there are following three reactions.
Wherein phenol, fortified phenol or aromatic alcohol and DMC synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester are balanced reaction.If the by-product carbinol of reaction is removed from reaction system, can break molecular balance, balance is moved to the direction that generates diaryl carbonate, can improve the transformation efficiency of DMC like this and shorten the reaction times.
Traditional ester-interchange method synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester technology as the synthetic DPC of catalytic transesterification method, is to react under non-pressurized condition, DMC and the by product CH that is produced 3OH mixes and steams, and transfers to then and separates CH in another distillation system 3OH and DMC.
Propose with two separation columns as document JP-07101908-A, one is used for carbonate synthesis aminomethyl phenyl ester (MPC) and DPC, and another is extraction agent extracting and separating DMC and CH with dimethyl oxalate (DMO) 3OH, DMC then circulates.Also take similar technology to synthesize MPC among the EP-785184-A.
Used two bank of reactor and two separation columns to synthesize MPC and DPC, separation of C H respectively in the JP-04235951-A document 3OH and DMC.DMC and phenol add continuously from the top of first separation column, are fed in then in the outer bank of reactor (4 reactors, catalyzer therein) of tower, and the MPC mixture of generation is recycled in the separation column again, CH 3OH discharges from cat head, and MPC discharges at the bottom of tower, delivers to the top of second separation column, flows into downwards in second bank of reactor, and the MPC reaction generates the mixture of DPC and DMC, is recycled in second separation column and separates, and the DMC circulation obtains DPC at the bottom of the tower.
Document JP-0959225-A has designed three separation columns, synthetic MPC in first tower, and cat head is discharged DMC, CH 3The azeotrope of OH generates DPC and DMC by the MPC disproportionation reaction in second tower, and DMC recycles, the DMC that generates in the 3rd tower, CH 3OH etc. send in first tower and circulate.
Designed one in the WO-18458-A document and overlapped the device that contains 3 continuous reaction zones, DPC is synthetic in the 3rd district.The gas phase DMC and the CH that generate in preceding two districts 3OH sends in the separation column and separates, the DMC circulation.
Compression rectification is separated two kinds of materials the characteristics that Raoult's law produces deviation according to the M1-M2 azeotrope, and pressurize can change the azeotropic point of azeotrope that M1-M2 forms, and changes the composition of azeotrope.Adopt the compression rectification method can make DMC and CH 3The OH azeotrope is effectively separated, and (different pressures is to DMC and CH 3The relation that the OH azeotrope is formed is seen attached list).Under elevated pressures, cat head can obtain with CH 3OH is main azeotrope (CH 3OH content 〉=93wt%), obtain pure DMC at the bottom of the tower.
CH under the subordinate list different pressures 3The composition of OH-DMC azeotrope and the relation of azeotropic temperature
Pressure/MPa 0.1 0.2 0.4 0.8 1.0 1.5
Azeotropic composition/%CH 3OH 70.0 73.4 79.3 85.2 87.7 93.0
(massfraction) DMC 30.0 26.6 17.5 14.8 12.4 7.0
Azeotropic temperature/℃ 64.0 82.0 104.0 118.0 138.0 155.0
If the reacting phase of compression rectification with the ester-interchange method synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester combined, can reach and remove the by product CH that reaction generates 3The purpose of OH also can reduce with CH simultaneously significantly 3The amount of the DMC that OH removed, thus make reaction raw materials DMC obtain fully effectively utilizing, improve the productive rate of purpose product diaryl carbonate, simultaneously, reactor and rectifying tower are carried out integrated combination, both improved productive rate, simplify technical process again greatly, reduced facility investment.
As previously mentioned, traditional ester-interchange method synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester technology synthetic is carried out with separating separately, and per pass conversion is low, long flow path, complex process, production cost height.In addition, because CH 3OH and DMC form azeotrope, steam CH 3Also taken away a large amount of DMC in the time of OH, the result causes the concentration of DMC in the reactor to reduce, and the equilibrium conversion of synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester is reduced.
Summary of the invention
At the deficiency of traditional ester-interchange method synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester technology, the invention provides a kind of realization phenol, fortified phenol or aromatic alcohol and DMC transesterification reaction synthesizing diaryl carbonic acid ester and and CH 3The technology of the isolation integral of OH/DMC azeotrope.The reaction unit that adopts building-up reactions and rectifying to combine in this technology can make by product CH 3OH shifts out from reaction system, and does not take away reaction raw materials DMC.Reactor and compression rectification tower link together in this device, form a cover catalytic distillation coupled reaction system.
