そしてこれを達成する簡単な方法が必要とされている。[0003] US Pat. No. 3,580,819 discloses a crude propylene oxide containing propylene, water and high boiling oxygen-containing impurities, which is subjected to a two-stage distillation method, and then contacted with an aqueous selective solvent for propylene oxide (PO). And a method for recovering propylene oxide by distilling PO from a solvent. The starting material contains only 8.1% by weight of PO. French Patent No. 1469339 and US Pat. No. 3,398,062 describe a purification process by distilling crude propylene oxide, including propylene chloride, water, dissolved gases, acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde, and removing the overhead fluid via a separator. Is disclosed. The starting material contains a relatively low amount of propylene oxide (88%) and the distillation
It is performed under relatively harsh conditions using steam. DE 1040783 discloses a process for producing polyethers, in which PO is introduced into a reaction vessel via a reflux tower. Most of the PO in the reaction vessel evaporates and is returned to the reflux tower,
There it is condensed and the liquid mixture at the bottom of the reflux column is re-poured into the reaction vessel. No purification of the PO is performed except for the removal of the inert gas. US Patent No. 51605
No. 87 and US Pat. No. 5,133,839 are another example of a disclosure about extractive distillation of PO. No. 5,160,587 discloses a comparative distillation without using an extractive distillation solvent. That is, the distillation column has a considerably large number of stages and the amount of impurities in the PO used as the starting material is also quite high. Despite the complexity of the refined refinement process, it is known that the quality of propylene oxide degrades over time and reflects the quality of polyether polyols made from PO and the quality of polyurethanes made from the polyols. Have been. Storage or transport of PO at room temperature appears to have a negative effect. The storage or transportation as described above is preferably carried out with PO
The temperature should be as low as possible above the melting point of Furthermore, the storage or transport of PO in contact with mild steel or carbon steel is particularly important if the steel is air,
Where it can come into contact with moisture, water or oxygen, it appears to have a bad effect. Such storage or transport should preferably take place with the PO in contact with stainless steel or steel coated with an inert layer. Due to the different storage and transport methods used by PO manufacturers, users will face different grades of commercial grade PO, and such quality will eventually be Affects the quality of the manufactured product. To date, it is not completely understood what changes in propylene oxide cause degradation in the quality of polyols and polyurethanes. Given the above circumstances, there is a need for good and consistent quality PO used to make materials, especially polyether polyols,
And there is a need for an easy way to achieve this.

More surprisingly, it has also been found that the quality of PO already having a high degree of purity can be improved by a simple distillation method.

To avoid entrainment of droplets in the vapor stream, the tower can include 1-10 actual trays and preferably 2-8 actual trays. PO is fed to the bottom of the distillation column from a main storage tank for PO storage, which has been kept out of contact with the atmosphere with an inert gas, heated and condensed in a condenser. The purified PO from the condenser is stored as a liquid in an intermediate storage tank or fed directly to the process using it until it is used to produce the product. Inert gas is preferably N 2. The distillation step may be carried out at normal pressure or slightly elevated pressure (1-3 bar absolute) and at 35-60 ° C. or at 0.99 to 0.5 bar absolute at normal temperature (where the heater is Not required).
