The present invention relates to by p-Xylol and methanol production slightly to the method for benzene two (first) dimethyl phthalate (DMT), wherein make oxygenant with airborne oxygen, make catalyzer with the dissolved heavy metal compound, in liquid phase, carry out oxidation, it is to send p-Xylol and the mixture that mainly contains methyl p-methyl benzoate (p-TE) cut back to oxidation, oxidation products mainly is p-methylbenzoic acid (p-TS) and terephthalic acid one methyl esters (MMT), oxidizing reaction temperature is 140-170 ℃, and pressure is the 4-8 crust.The esterification of oxidation products is to carry out under the pressure of 220-280 ℃ and 20-25 crust, the methyl alcohol of reaction usefulness is from liquid state process pressurization earlier and evaporation, just send to for esterification then and use, and the esterification primary product is the thick ester that contains p-TE and DMT, can discharge thick ester cut and the steam cut that contains methyl alcohol by esterification, thick ester is isolated one or more low boiler cuts after distillation, these low boiler cuts send back and reoxidize, perhaps isolate one or more residual fractions, they are sent back in the former operation, and/or with its process heat treated, or carry out manipulation of regeneration with methyl alcohol, and after distillation was handled, a part was sent former operation back to, thick DMT cut was hydrolyzed and/or with the further processing treatment of recrystallizing methanol.
In the method that large-scale commercial production is implemented, (consult " hydrocarbon processing " (" Hydrocarbon Processing "), November number, nineteen eighty-three, the 91st page), the oxidation products that comes out from oxidation operation comes esterification and generates thick ester with methyl alcohol esterification step.The weight ratio of methyl alcohol and oxidation products is about 0.2 to 1.0.In scale operation, it is that esterification is necessary that the methyl alcohol of sending esterification step to approximately has only 30-50%.And unnecessary methyl alcohol is to be used for impelling the esterification balance to carry out towards the direction of the complete as far as possible esterification of oxidation products, and in addition, unnecessary methyl alcohol also can be used as the carrier of the water that constantly generates in energy carrier and the esterification.The used methanol steam of esterification need be superheated to and be higher than about 0 °-50 ℃ of esterification temperature.
In the production method of being implemented up to now, thick DMT(dimethyl terephthalate (DMT)) filtrate in methyl alcohol behind the recrystallization can be under 65-70 ℃ in vaporizer (with the low-pressure steam heating of 1.0-1.8 crust) evaporate.The steam that is evaporated pumps into the methyl alcohol of basin as reaction usefulness later on through condensation.And the tail pump after the evaporation is sent this operation back to and is further handled.The methyl alcohol that esterification is used is sent into the methyl alcohol of a container as reaction usefulness, and this methyl alcohol can be sent into through high-pressure pump, and used pressure can be 27 crust, is heated under this pressure and evaporates, and sends into esterifier after being superheated to 250-270 ℃ then.In the technology similarly, as methyl alcohol required in the possible manipulation of regeneration, and slightly ester remaining methanol fraction after distillation is handled then can be forced into it 3-6 crust, and is superheated to 270 ℃.Methyl alcohol contained moisture in esterification products unnecessary in the esterification carries out rectifying behind release of pressure.Overhead fraction is used for this production process again with liquid form after the supercooled water condensation.
The shortcoming of this production method is, is used for the methyl alcohol of esterification and reaction residue is carried out the methyl alcohol need of manipulation of regeneration through twice evaporation.
According to the described method of beginning, but adopt new methanol of reaction feeder system, in big factory, produce DMT and obtained more and more higher economic benefit.From energy-conservation viewpoint, this new feeder system is more popular to people than known methyl alcohol double evaporation-cooling system.
This purpose can realize by original processing method is improved, this improved characteristics are, oxidation products adopts the steam that contains methyl alcohol to carry out esterification, this steam that contains methyl alcohol need be through being compressed to certain pressure and being heated to certain temperature, the filtrate of this methanol steam after by thick DMT cut recrystallization obtains through pervaporation, or by the cut process rectifying that contains methanol steam, optionally add the process-stream that contains methyl alcohol and obtain that its pressure then is lower than the pressure of esterification.
Required level pressure, the constant temperature methanol of reaction feeder system of esterification proposed by the invention is achieved in that the used methyl alcohol of esterification can evaporate by the process-stream that will contain methyl alcohol or rectifying produces, its pressure then is lower than the pressure of esterification, then methanol steam is forced into the required pressure of esterification, and it is temperature required to make methanol steam reach esterification after compression.The steam of using for esterification that contains methyl alcohol generally can produce by evaporation or rectification process, and its pressure and is advisable with the 4-8 crust generally between the 2-20 crust.The compression ratio of steam when compression that contains methyl alcohol generally is controlled at 1.2: 1-15: between 1, and with 3: 1-9: 1 is advisable.In addition, the outlet temperature (being reached in compressor) of leaving the methanol of reaction of compressor and is advisable with 220-280 ℃ generally between 150-300 ℃.
The water that methanol steam that the reaction of being discharged by the esterification column top is unnecessary and reaction are generated is through after the process water washing, and its latent heat is utilized, perhaps fractional condensation and be back to esterification column after turbine expands, and its latent heat is also utilized.
In addition, the reaction heat that is discharged in the oxidation reaction process also can be used for production low-pressure steam (producing) in the cooling system of oxidation products, this low-pressure steam or can be used in evaporation or the rectification working process.
The methyl alcohol feeder system that new esterification proposed by the invention is used has following feature and advantage:
1. at scale operation DMT(terephthalic acid dimethyl ester) factory in, thick DMT cut carries out the filtrate behind the recrystallization in methyl alcohol, or even the esterification steam and the process-stream that contain methyl alcohol can evaporate or rectifying with low-pressure steam, used low-pressure steam then can be produced by the cooling system of oxidising process, and used pressure is to be advisable between the 4-8 crust.
2. be that the methanol steam of 4-8 crust is forced into the 25-30 crust and is advisable with the pressure that generates in the methyl alcohol compressor, the methyl alcohol gas of the back of boosting is used for the esterification oxidation products.The required temperature of superheat that reaches of the methanol of reaction that esterification is used then is partly or wholly to heat up in compressor and produce.
3. a part of pressure described in top the 1st be 4-8 crust methanol steam through corresponding overheated after, can be used as the methanol of reaction in residual fraction manipulation of regeneration process segment.
