Description
本発明は、重合反応器内壁へのスケール付着防止剤の塗布方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method for applying a scale adhesion preventing agent to the inner wall of a polymerization reactor.
従来、オレフィン系単量体の重合方法としては、懸濁重合法、乳化重合法、溶液重合法、気相重合法、塊状重合法等が知られているが、これらの重合法においては、いずれの場合にも、重合反応器内部表面に重合体スケールの付着が生起し易い。
重合体スケールが重合反応器内部表面に付着すると、重合体の収率、重合反応器冷却能力等が低下するばかりでなく、この重合体スケールが剥離して重合体中に混入する結果、重合体から得られる生成物の品位が低下する問題が発生する。
そのため、重合反応器内部に付着した重合体スケールを除去することが必要になるが、この除去方法としては、重合反応器に人が入って付着物を取り除くか又は重合反応器のマンホールを開放し、高圧水ジェット洗浄装置を使用して付着した重合物にジェット水流を当てて取り除く方法等が考えられる。
しかし、これらの除去方法については、過大な労力と時間を要するのみならず、この重合体スケール中には未反応の単量体が含まれているため人体障害の危険性があるから、スケール除去作業を如何に少なくするかが重要な課題となっている。
Conventionally, suspension polymerization methods, emulsion polymerization methods, solution polymerization methods, gas phase polymerization methods, bulk polymerization methods, and the like are known as polymerization methods for olefinic monomers. Also in this case, adhesion of the polymer scale tends to occur on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor.
When the polymer scale adheres to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor, not only the yield of the polymer, the cooling capacity of the polymerization reactor, etc., but also the polymer scale peels off and is mixed into the polymer. There arises a problem that the quality of the product obtained from the above is lowered.
Therefore, it is necessary to remove the polymer scale adhering to the inside of the polymerization reactor. As this removal method, a person enters the polymerization reactor to remove the adhering matter, or the manhole of the polymerization reactor is opened. For example, a method of applying a jet water stream to the polymer adhered using a high-pressure water jet cleaning apparatus and removing the polymer can be considered.
However, these removal methods require not only excessive labor and time, but also the scale removal because there is a risk of human injury because the polymer scale contains unreacted monomers. How to reduce the work is an important issue.
このため、従来から、重合反応器内部表面の重合体スケールの付着を防止する方法として、重合体スケール付着防止剤の皮膜を重合反応器内部表面に形成する方法が知られている。
例えば、重合反応器内上部に設けた液体−気体の流体噴霧ノズルより、単量体もしくは重合体が接触する器壁、管壁、その他の装置部表面に、あらかじめスケール付着防止剤を噴霧してスケール付着防止塗膜を形成した後、このノズルより注水しながら重合を行うことを特徴とする重合反応器内壁等へのスケール付着防止法（特許文献１）、フイルムの形でポリマービルドアップを防止することのできるコーティング物質のコーティング溶液を作成すること、上記コーティング物質のためのキャリアーとして作用する塩化ビニルのガスの上記コーティング溶液に対する作用によって重合反応器の表面に上記コーティング物質を適用すること、及びついで上記重合反応器のコーティングされた内部表面と常に接触させながらモノマーの重合を行うことを含む、重合反応器の内部表面上のポリマービルドアップを実質的に排除する方法（特許文献２）、等がある。
For this reason, conventionally, as a method for preventing the adhesion of the polymer scale on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor, a method of forming a film of the polymer scale adhesion preventing agent on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor is known.
For example, an anti-scale adhesion agent is sprayed in advance on the vessel wall, tube wall, or other device surface that comes into contact with the monomer or polymer from a liquid-gas fluid spray nozzle provided in the upper part of the polymerization reactor. After forming a scale adhesion prevention coating film, polymerization is performed while pouring water from this nozzle. A method for preventing adhesion of scale to the inner wall of the polymerization reactor (Patent Document 1), preventing polymer build-up in the form of a film Creating a coating solution of the coating material that can be applied, applying the coating material to the surface of the polymerization reactor by the action of a gas of vinyl chloride acting as a carrier for the coating material on the coating solution; and The monomer is then polymerized in constant contact with the coated internal surface of the polymerization reactor. Comprising substantially way to eliminate polymer buildup on the internal surfaces of the polymerization reactor (Patent Document 2), and the like.
しかし、上述した従来方法のように、スプレー方式でスケール付着防止剤の塗布を行う方法では、例えば容積が８０ｍ３以上の大型重合反応器の内壁面にスケール付着防止剤皮膜を均一に形成することが困難である。即ち、スケール付着防止剤を噴霧するためのスプレーノズルは、一般的に重合反応器上部に設置されるが、重合反応器が大型になるほど、該ノズルと重合反応器の底部との距離が長くなるため、スケール付着防止剤塗布液の液滴を十分な量だけ重合反応器底部に運ぶことが難しく、この結果として、スケール付着防止剤皮膜を重合反応器内壁に均一に形成することが困難となっているのである。
このような傾向は、閉鎖された重合系において一層顕著である。例えば、閉鎖されている重合反応器内で、スプレーノズルを用いて噴霧を行った場合、重合反応器の下部に器内ガスの滞留を生じ、重合反応器下部までのガスの流れが生じにくくなる。このために、重合反応器内壁面の下部に十分な量のスケール付着防止剤を塗布することが一層困難となっており、これらの部分へのスケール付着の発生を有効に防止することが出来ないという欠点があった。
そこで、このような欠点を解消するための方法として、閉鎖された重合反応器の上部からスケール付着防止剤を含有する塗布液を噴霧すると同時に、重合反応器底部より器内ガスの吸引を行い、余剰の塗布液を排出して重合反応器内壁にスケール付着防止剤皮膜を生成する方法（特許文献３）が開発されている。
However, in the method of applying the scale adhesion inhibitor by the spray method as in the conventional method described above, for example, a scale adhesion inhibitor film is uniformly formed on the inner wall surface of a large polymerization reactor having a volume of 80 m 3 or more. Is difficult. That is, the spray nozzle for spraying the scale adhesion preventing agent is generally installed at the top of the polymerization reactor, but the larger the polymerization reactor, the longer the distance between the nozzle and the bottom of the polymerization reactor. For this reason, it is difficult to carry a sufficient amount of droplets of the scale adhesion inhibitor coating liquid to the bottom of the polymerization reactor, and as a result, it becomes difficult to uniformly form a scale adhesion inhibitor film on the inner wall of the polymerization reactor. -ing
Such a tendency is more remarkable in a closed polymerization system. For example, when spraying is performed using a spray nozzle in a closed polymerization reactor, the gas in the reactor stays in the lower part of the polymerization reactor, and the gas flow to the lower part of the polymerization reactor is less likely to occur. . For this reason, it has become more difficult to apply a sufficient amount of scale adhesion preventing agent to the lower part of the inner wall surface of the polymerization reactor, and it is impossible to effectively prevent the occurrence of scale adhesion on these parts. There was a drawback.
Therefore, as a method for solving such drawbacks, the coating liquid containing the scale adhesion preventing agent is sprayed from the top of the closed polymerization reactor, and at the same time, the gas in the chamber is sucked from the bottom of the polymerization reactor, A method (Patent Document 3) has been developed in which excess coating liquid is discharged to produce a scale adhesion inhibitor film on the inner wall of the polymerization reactor.
しかしながら、上記の方法は、重合反応器底部より器内ガスの吸引を行いながら、スケール付着防止剤皮膜を形成する方法であるので、どうしてもスケール付着防止剤が排出ガスに同伴して排出されるため、スケール付着防止剤の無駄が避けられない点で、十分なものとはいえない。
そして、近年のスケール付着防止剤の性能向上には目を見張るものがあるが、その塗布方法については問題がある。即ち、精々１００バッチ良くて３００バッチの繰返し重合後には、反応器に人が入って付着物を取り除くか、又は重合反応器のマンホールを開放して、高圧水ジェット洗浄装置により、付着した重合物を除去する等の作業をしなくてはならない。
従って、長期間の連続運転、例えば、一年間以上あるいは１０００バッチ以上の重合後であっても、付着による生産停止の必要のない、重合反応器内部表面のスケール付着防止技術の開発が待たれている。
特に、塩化ビニル系モノマーの重合の場合、塩化ビニルモノマーは有害であり、大気中に放出される量を削減する取り組みがなされているだけに、上記の課題は重要なテーマである。
However, since the above method is a method of forming a scale adhesion inhibitor film while sucking the gas from the bottom of the polymerization reactor, the scale adhesion inhibitor is inevitably discharged with the exhaust gas. However, it cannot be said that the waste of the scale adhesion preventing agent is unavoidable.
And although there is a remarkable improvement in the performance of scale adhesion inhibitors in recent years, there is a problem with the application method. That is, after repeated polymerization of 100 batches at best and 300 batches, a person enters the reactor to remove the deposits, or the manhole of the polymerization reactor is opened and the deposited polymer is removed by a high-pressure water jet cleaning device. It is necessary to do the work such as removing.
Therefore, development of a technique for preventing the adhesion of scale on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor is awaited, which does not require production stoppage due to adhesion even after long-term continuous operation, for example, after polymerization for one year or more or 1000 batches or more. Yes.
In particular, in the case of polymerization of vinyl chloride monomers, vinyl chloride monomers are harmful, and the above problem is an important theme because efforts are being made to reduce the amount released into the atmosphere.
本発明の課題は、オレフィン系単量体、特に、塩化ビニルの重合において、長期間の連続運転を可能にする、重合反応器内部表面のスケール付着防止剤の塗布方法を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a coating method of a scale adhesion preventing agent on the inner surface of a polymerization reactor, which enables continuous operation for a long period in polymerization of olefinic monomers, particularly vinyl chloride.
本発明者らは、上記の課題を解決するため鋭意研究を重ねたところ、オレフィン系単量体、特に、塩化ビニルの重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤の皮膜を形成する場合、単にスケール付着防止剤を散布したのでは、スケール付着防止剤が器内全体に十分に行き渡らないが、該スケール付着防止剤を噴霧して、２つのガス流（上昇流と下降流）を生起させ、スケール付着防止剤を器内で循環させれば、該反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤の皮膜を均一に形成し得ることを知り、更に研究を重ねた結果、本発明を完成するに至った。 The inventors of the present invention have made extensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems. As a result, when a film of an anti-scale adhesion agent is formed on the inner surface of a polymerization reactor of an olefin monomer, particularly vinyl chloride, the scale is simply used. When the anti-adhesive agent is sprayed, the scale anti-adhesive agent does not spread throughout the entire vessel, but the scale anti-adhesive agent is sprayed to generate two gas flows (upflow and downflow), and the scale As a result of further research, it has been found that the present invention has been completed as a result of further research on the fact that an adhesion preventive agent can be circulated in the vessel to uniformly form a scale adherence preventive film on the inner surface of the reactor.

本発明の重合反応器内部表面のスケール付着防止方法は、重合反応器の上部からスケール付着防止剤を撹拌下に噴霧させて、該反応器内壁に沿ってガス上昇流を、反応器中心部にガス下降流を、それぞれ生起させることにより、重合反応器内でスケール付着防止剤を循環させ、重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤を塗布することを特徴とするものである。

In the method for preventing scale adhesion on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor of the present invention, a scale adhesion preventing agent is sprayed from the upper part of the polymerization reactor under stirring, and a gas upward flow along the inner wall of the reactor is caused to flow into the center of the reactor. Each of the gas descending flows is caused to circulate the scale adhesion preventing agent in the polymerization reactor, and the scale adhesion preventing agent is applied to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor.
According to the present invention, the inner wall of the polymerization reactor, the surface of the attached device and the like can be uniformly coated with the scale adhesion preventing agent, so that continuous operation for a long time is possible, and the effect is great.
本発明は、以下の知見に基づいてなされたものである。
（１）重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤を塗布する場合、単にスケール付着防止剤を散布したのでは、該反応器内部に装入するスケール付着防止剤含有液の初速度だけでは、該スケール付着防止剤が全体に充分行き渡らないので、スケール付着防止剤を均一に塗布することはできない。
（２）そこで、スケール付着防止剤を装置内に上昇または下降するガス流として、均一散布しようとすることも考えられるが、その場合、スケール付着防止剤散布の所要時間を長くするか又はスケール付着防止剤を多量に使用する必要が出てくる。
（３）ところが、重合反応器内にスケール付着防止剤を攪拌下に噴霧させて、２つのガス流、即ち、重合反応器内壁に沿ってガス上昇流を、重合反応器の中心部にガス下降流をそれぞれ生起させて、スケール付着防止剤を重合反応器内で循環すれば、該ガス流に同伴したスケール付着防止剤が、短時間に均一に、重合反応器内部表面に塗布されることをつきとめた。
上記の撹拌手段としては、重合反応器に付属設置された撹拌機を使用することが本発明において好ましい実施態様である。
The present invention has been made based on the following findings.
(1) When applying an anti-scale adhesion agent to the polymerization reactor internal surface, simply spraying the anti-scale adhesion agent, the initial rate of the scale anti-oxidation agent-containing liquid charged into the reactor alone, Since the scale adhesion preventive agent does not spread over the whole, the scale adhesion preventive agent cannot be applied uniformly.
(2) Therefore, it is conceivable to uniformly spray the scale adhesion inhibitor as a gas flow rising or descending into the apparatus. In this case, the time required for spraying the scale adhesion inhibitor is increased or the scale adhesion is performed. It becomes necessary to use a large amount of inhibitor.
(3) However, the scale adhesion inhibitor is sprayed into the polymerization reactor under stirring, and two gas flows, that is, a gas rising flow along the inner wall of the polymerization reactor, and a gas descending to the center of the polymerization reactor. If the scale adhesion inhibitor is circulated in the polymerization reactor by generating each flow, the scale adhesion inhibitor accompanying the gas stream is uniformly applied to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor in a short time. I caught it.
As the above stirring means, it is a preferred embodiment in the present invention to use a stirrer attached to the polymerization reactor.
このように、本発明では、重合反応器内部表面に、スケール付着防止剤を効率的に均一に塗布することができるが、その理由は、以下の通りである。
（１）撹拌翼による重合反応器内のガス流動は、元来、塩化ビニル系樹脂製造に適した撹拌条件（構造物による撹拌流動をも考慮した流動解析の結果が撹拌翼、バッフル等の諸条件を加味して設計されたもの）を設定したものであることから、流体が液からガスに変わっても反応器内の隅々まで、反応機内をガスが循環すると考えられる。
（２）２つのガス流（上昇流と下降流）が自然に形成されるのは、上昇流と下降流との間に仮想境界が形成されるためであると推察される。
何れにしても、本発明の特徴は、重合反応器内に霧状（平均粒径１０〜２００μｍと推定される）のスケール付着防止剤を撹拌下装入して、反応器内に上昇するガス流及び下降するガス流を作ることにより、スケール付着防止剤を重合反応器内で循環させて、重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤を均一に塗布した点にあり、そのための手段として、重合反応器に付設した撹拌翼をそのまま利用できる点において、簡便であり、経済的であるとともに、本発明によれば、長時間の連続運転が可能となる。
As described above, in the present invention, the scale adhesion preventing agent can be efficiently and uniformly applied to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor. The reason is as follows.
(1) The gas flow in the polymerization reactor by the stirring blades is essentially the same as the stirring conditions suitable for the production of vinyl chloride resin (the results of the flow analysis taking into account the stirring flow by the structure) Therefore, even if the fluid changes from liquid to gas, it is considered that the gas circulates in the reactor to every corner of the reactor.
(2) The reason why two gas flows (upflow and downflow) are naturally formed is presumed to be because a virtual boundary is formed between the upflow and the downflow.
In any case, the feature of the present invention is that the mist-like (average particle size estimated to be 10 to 200 μm) scale adhesion preventive agent is charged into the polymerization reactor under stirring, and the gas rising into the reactor. The scale adhesion inhibitor is circulated in the polymerization reactor by creating a flow and a descending gas stream, and the scale adhesion inhibitor is uniformly applied to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor. It is simple and economical in that the stirring blade attached to the reactor can be used as it is, and according to the present invention, continuous operation for a long time is possible.
以下、本発明をさらに詳細に説明する。
本発明の重合反応器内部表面のスケール付着防止方法は、重合反応器の上部からスケール付着防止剤を攪拌下に噴霧し、該重合反応器内壁に沿って上昇流を、重合反応器中心部に下降流を生起させることにより、重合反応器内でスケール付着防止剤を循環させ、重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤を均一に塗布することを特徴とするものである。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.

本皮膜の形成法は、重合反応器の上部からスケール付着防止剤からなる塗布液を、撹拌下に噴霧することにより行うことが必須の要件であるが、その際の撹拌条件が重要であり、撹拌は、２種類のガス流、即ち、該反応器内壁に沿ってガス上昇流を、反応器中心部にガス下降流を、それぞれ生起させるとともに、重合反応器内でのスケール付着防止剤の循環を十分に行うものであることが必要がある。その結果、重合反応器の内部表面に均一な皮膜を形成することができる。

(2) Formation of film The film of the scale adhesion preventing agent of the present invention is formed by spraying the scale adhesion preventing agent into the polymerization reactor under stirring, and increasing the flow along the inner wall of the polymerization reactor. A down flow is caused in the central portion of the reactor to circulate the scale adhesion preventing agent in the polymerization reactor and uniformly apply the scale adhesion preventing agent to the inner surface of the polymerization reactor.
The formation method of this film is an essential requirement to perform by spraying a coating liquid composed of a scale adhesion inhibitor from the upper part of the polymerization reactor under stirring, but the stirring conditions at that time are important. Stirring generates two types of gas flows, that is, a gas upward flow along the inner wall of the reactor and a gas downward flow at the center of the reactor, and the circulation of the scale adhesion preventing agent in the polymerization reactor. Need to be sufficient. As a result, a uniform film can be formed on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor.

tv : Time (seconds) to give upward flow
L v : inner circumference (m) of the cross section when the polymerization reactor is cut along a vertical plane passing through its vertical axis
u H : Average flow velocity of horizontal flow (0.8 to 5 m / sec)

（３）重合方法
重合反応器内部表面にスケール付着防止剤の皮膜の形成を行った後、該反応器内に所定の重合成分を供給して、常法により重合を行うが、この際、該反応器内部表面に均一にスケール付着防止剤皮膜が形成されているため、反応器内部表面へのスケール付着が防止され、重合体品質や生産性の低下を回避することができる。
本発明方法は、オレフィン単量体の重合時におけるスケール付着の防止に適用されるが、重合方法としては、例えば、塩化ビニル等のハロゲン化ビニル；酢酸ビニル、プロピオン酸ビニル等のビニルエステル；アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、これらのエステル又は塩；マレイン酸、フマル酸、これらのエステル又は無水物；ブタジエン、クロロプレン、イソプレン等のジエン；塩化ビニリデン等のハロゲン化ビニリデン；ビニルエーテル；スチレン；アクリロニトリル等の重合方法に適用し得る。特に、塩化ビニル等の塩化ビニル系単量体の重合方法に最適である。

(3) Polymerization method After forming a film of a scale adhesion inhibitor on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor, a predetermined polymerization component is supplied into the reactor and polymerization is carried out by a conventional method. Since the scale adhesion inhibitor film is uniformly formed on the inner surface of the reactor, scale adhesion to the inner surface of the reactor can be prevented, and deterioration of polymer quality and productivity can be avoided.
The method of the present invention is applied to prevent scale adhesion during polymerization of an olefin monomer. Examples of the polymerization method include vinyl halides such as vinyl chloride; vinyl esters such as vinyl acetate and vinyl propionate; Acid, methacrylic acid, esters or salts thereof; maleic acid, fumaric acid, esters or anhydrides thereof; dienes such as butadiene, chloroprene, isoprene; vinylidene halides such as vinylidene chloride; vinyl ether; styrene; polymerization methods such as acrylonitrile Applicable to. In particular, it is most suitable for the polymerization method of vinyl chloride monomers such as vinyl chloride.
Moreover, the scale prevention effect by the scale adhesion preventing agent film has various polymerization components added in addition to the monomer, for example, a polymerization initiator (catalyst), a dispersion medium such as water, a suspension agent, a solid dispersion agent, a cationic property, Even when an anionic liquid dispersant, a filler, a plasticizer, a stabilizer, a chain transfer agent, a pH adjuster, or the like is present, it is sufficiently exerted.
Therefore, the polymerization mode is not particularly limited, and the method of the present invention can be applied to any of suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization, bulk polymerization, and the like, and a desired scale prevention effect can be exhibited.

（２）従来方法のスプレー方式でスケール付着防止剤の塗布を行う方法では、特別な工夫をしない限り（例えば、特許文献３参照）、容積が８０ｍ３以上の大型重合反応器の内部表面にスケール付着防止剤皮膜を均一に形成することが困難であったが、本発明によれば、このような大型重合反応器を用いる場合においても、スケール付着防止剤皮膜を均一に形成することができる。
（３）本発明では、撹拌は必須であるが、その撹拌手段としては、例えば、重合反応器に付設された撹拌機をそのまま使用可能であるから有利である。
(1) According to the present invention, since the scale adhesion inhibitor film on the inner surface of the polymerization reactor is uniformly coated, continuous operation for a long time is possible, and after polymerization for one year or more or 1000 batches or more. However, there is no need to stop production due to scale adhesion.
(2) In the conventional method of applying the scale adhesion inhibitor by the spray method, unless special measures are taken (for example, see Patent Document 3), the scale is formed on the internal surface of a large polymerization reactor having a volume of 80 m 3 or more. Although it was difficult to form an adhesion inhibitor film uniformly, according to the present invention, even when such a large polymerization reactor is used, a scale adhesion inhibitor film can be formed uniformly.
(3) In the present invention, stirring is essential, but as the stirring means, for example, a stirrer attached to the polymerization reactor can be used as it is, which is advantageous.
