Description
PROCESS FOR PURIFYING A VINYLAROMATIC MONOMER
This invention relates to a process for purifying a vinylaromatic monomer, and more particularly for removing phenolic inhibitors from a vinylaromatic monomer.
As is known, in order to be able to store and transport vinyl aromatic monomers, for example styrene, methyls tyrene, alpha-methylstyrene, butylstyr enes, divinyl benzenes, and mono- and dibromo-styrenes, as well as mixtures thereof, it is necessary to add polymerization inhibitors at concentrations from 5 to 50 ppm. The most commonly used inhibitor is para-tert.butyl catechol (TBC), but other inhibitors can be used, such as hydroquinone monomethylether, dinitrophenols and picric acid. However, such inhibitors are not always consistent with the quality of the polymeric compounds to be produced, and therefore it is sometimes necessary to remove them in advance from the monomer.Several processes suited to this purpose have been already described, for example: i) Distillation of the monomer, in order to remove (at the end) the phenolic inhibitor contained herein; this process is very expensive as it involves a high energy consumption and the use of complex apparatus.
ii) Washing with a water solution of sodium hydroxide; this process requires a subsequent intense washing with water in order to remove the sodium hydroxide still contained in the monomer, and usually requires a final dryirg to eliminate the residual moisture.
iii) Passing over a bed of anion exchange resins, having tertiary and/or quaternary terminations, both in the free form and in the salified form; the drawbacks which are very frequent - of such process are a very short life of the material, if used in the saline form, and the disagreeable smell of the treated monomer, due to the presence of traces of aminic compounds, if the resin is utilized in the free form.
There are also known purification processes, which comprise causing the vinyl aromatic monomer to pass on fixed beds of alumina. These treatments generally involve high operating costs, which are not always compatible with the process economy owing to the short life of the absorbing material. Therefore it is necessary to often replace the bed, which requires complex operations such as the removal of the monomer absorbed by the material, discharge and disposal of the exhausted material and charging fresh material.
In order to prolong the life of the alumina, and so to reduce the frequency of the operations for replacing it, a recent document (Japan patent publication 57538/1988) suggests to alternate normal space velocities with very low space velocities (of the monomer), stating for example that the alternation of a period at a space velocity equal to 0. 8 h with a period at a space velocity equal to or lower than 0. 01 h 1 results in a longer life of the alumina, as a result of which the obtainable amounts of purified monomer per weight unit (or volume unit) of alumina, before alumina becomes de-activated, are much higher. For "normal" space velocities, values from 0. 1 to 10 h 1 are indicated.
However, this method compels the operator to follow complicated principles for operating the purification column; furthermore, the total amounts of purified monomer obtainable up to the alumina de-activation threshold are not very high, and the periods at "low" space velocity (below 0. 1 h l) involve undesirable production losses.
We have now ascertained that an accurate selection of some operative conditions permits avoidance of the alternation of the space velocities, eliminating the periods at low space velocity, and a surprisingly high increase in the total amounts of purified monomer to be obtained.
The present invention provides a process for purifying a vinylaromatic monomer having from 8 12 carbon atoms, and containing a phenolic polymerization inhibitor, by causing it to pass over a fixed bed of alumina particles, characterised in that the average particle size ranges from 0. 5 to 3 mm, -the monomer space velocity ranges from 0. 5 to 7. 5 h 1, and the monomer linear velocity ranges from 0. 125 to 45 and preferably from 1. 2 to 45 m/h.
Space velocity means the ratio: 3
m@/h of monomer W =
m or apparent volume occupied by alumina where the "apparent" volume is the volume of the (empty) purification chamber (before the filling with alumina), which, of course, is different from the proper volume of the A1203 particles. Linear velocity means the ratio between volumetric flow of the monomer and normal section of the purification chamber. "Monomer" means both the monomer alone, for example styrene, and mixtures thereof with other vinylaromatic monomers.
The preferred inhibitor for the process of the present invention is para-tert.butyl-catechol, and the inhibitor amount in the monomer to be purified is preferably from 5 to 50 ppm, more preferably from 5 to 15 ppm.
The alumina surface area is preferably from 150 to 270 2 m /g.
The apparatus for the purification of the monomer according to the invention can be of various type; excellent results have been obtained by feeding the monomer to be purified to a vertical cylindrical column, filled with a fixed bed of alumina and having the inlet preferably on the bottom. The alumina can be spherical (with very little losses due to abrasion) or granular (granules with irregular edges). The alumina life is the longer, the smaller is its size, this result being independent of the shape of the utilized alumina (balls, small cylinders, granules, etc. ); this fact was never observed previously.
The invention will be further described with reference to the following illustrative Examples. In the tests, the break-through threshold (end of the absorbent life or "de-activation threshold") is conventionally made to coincide with the point at which the para-tert.butyl catechol in the treated monomer is equal to 2 ppm, this limit being much more precautionary (with regard to the requirements of many polymeric compounds) than the limit indicated in the cited Japan patent publication 57538/1988, the threshold whereof being equal to 8 ppm.
Example 1 (comparative test)
A granular alumina, commercially known as "COMPALOX"
AN/V - 850", produced by the company Martinswerk GmbH,
Bergheim (Germany), having an average size from 5 to 10 mm, was charged into a vertical column having a diameter of 2. 5 cm and a height of 25 cm; then, at room temperature (20 C), styrene monomer containing 12 ppm of para-tert.butyl catechol was fed at a space velocity of 6hl (linear velocity = 1. 5 m/h), and it was possible to purify only 150 volumes of styrene per volume of alumina in a time of 1.04 days, i.e. in the time preceding the de-activation threshold. The obtained data and results are given in Table 1 below.

Styrene monomer containing on average 9 ppm of para-tert.butyl catechol was fed at a space velocity of 6.8 h-1 (linear velocity = 40.8 m/h); it was possible to purify 2,200 volumes of styrene per volume of alumina in a time of 13.4 days.
Example 10 (comparative test)
A spherical alumina, having a size of 1/4 inch (6. 4 mm), commercially known as Alcoa H151 and produced by Alcoa
Chemicals Division (USA), was charged into a column having a diameter of 28 mm and a height of 25 cm.
Styrene monomer, containing on average 12 ppm of para-tert.butyl catechol, was fed at a space velocity of 4 h 1 (linear velocity = 1.0 m/h); only 150 volumes of styrene per volume of alumina were purified in a time of 1. 56 days.
