It relates to a method for separating the components into their constituent components by a process of

的に透過させる方法である。 In addition, in recent years, a pervaporation method has been proposed as an energy-saving method for dehydrating organic aqueous solutions, and a dehydration method that combines this method with the above-mentioned distillation method has also been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 54-33279 Publication No. 167702, Japanese Patent Publication No. 167702, Japanese Patent Publication No. 16770-
(See Publication No. 48427). This pervaporation method uses a separation membrane, supplies an organic aqueous solution as a liquid to one side of the membrane, and maintains the other side at reduced pressure or supplies an inert gas to remove water vapor. This is a method of selectively transmitting light.

等の問題点を有している。
In the conventional distillation method, in order to increase the concentration of the distillate taken out from the distillation column, it is necessary to install many stages of the distillation column, which increases the size of the equipment and requires a large amount of energy. It has problems such as being necessary.

Since the separation membrane comes into direct contact with the organic aqueous solution, the separation membrane swells, resulting in problems such as a decrease in permselectivity and a loss of long-term durability.

The object of the present invention is to provide a method for separating volatile mixtures.

As a result of various studies, the present inventors extracted a mixed vapor from the stages of a distillation column, separated the extracted mixed vapor into low-boiling point substances and high-boiling point substances using a gas separation membrane, and transferred the low-boiling point substances to the above-mentioned distillation column. It has been found that the above object can be achieved by returning the high-boiling substances to the concentration stage of the distillation column and returning the high-boiling substances to the recovery stage of the distillation column.

ことにより膜透過性揮発性成分の透過量を多くで
きることは本発明の利点である。 At this time, in addition to the reheating operation using the superheater 9,
By increasing the pressure and temperature of the mixed vapor supplied to the gas separation membrane 4 within a range in which the mixed vapor does not condense, the amount of membrane-permeable volatile components that permeate through the gas separation membrane 4 is increased, and the gas separation membrane 4 The degree of separation can be increased. Considering these points, the pressure of the mixed vapor supplied to the gas separation membrane 4 is
Preferably, the temperature is 760 to 5000 mmHg and the temperature is 70 to 150°C. In the conventional pervaporation method mentioned above, it is necessary to supply the organic matter aqueous solution to be separated to the separation membrane in liquid form, so it is generally not necessary to use high-temperature and
It is not possible to use high pressure to increase the amount of permeation through the separation membrane. An advantage of the present invention is that by operating the gas separation membrane 4 at high temperature and high pressure, the amount of membrane-permeable volatile components permeable can be increased.

In order to ensure the necessary degree of reduced pressure, the system pressure on the secondary side 4b of the gas separation membrane 4 is usually 200 mmHg or less, preferably 100 mmHg or less.
Keep it below mmHg.

がなく、動力費が低減されて有効である。 Further, to maintain the reduced pressure on the secondary side 4b of the gas separation membrane 4, the membrane-permeated fraction that has passed through the gas separation membrane 4 is transferred from the line D to the cooler 5, and is indirectly cooled with a refrigerant in the cooler 5. This is done by a method of condensation.
This method allows the vacuum pump 7 to be removed only once at the start of operation.
If the pressure is reduced on the secondary side 4b of the gas separation membrane 4 by driving the There is no need to drive the vacuum pump 7 at the same time, which is effective because the power cost is reduced.

determined depending on their composition. That is, those rich in low-boiling substances are returned to the concentration stage (concentration section), and those rich in high-boiling substances are returned to the recovery stage (recovery section). Therefore, contrary to the embodiment shown in the flow sheet of FIG.

Examples include organic films made of polyamide, cellulose, cellulose acetate, polyimide, etc., and are appropriately selected depending on the type of volatile mixture. For example, when the volatile mixture is an aqueous solution of organic substances such as alcohols, ketones, ethers, and esters, it has excellent water vapor selective permeation performance, is easy to modularize, and can have a large membrane area per unit volume.
Among organic membranes, aromatic polyimide gas separation membranes are preferred because of their excellent heat resistance and solvent resistance.

厚みが大きいと気体選択透過性が不良となる。 The outer diameter of the hollow fiber used as a gas separation membrane is usually 50 to 2000μ, preferably 200 to 1000μ. If the outer diameter of the hollow fiber is too small, pressure loss will increase, and if it is too large, the effective membrane area will decrease.
In addition, as for the above hollow fiber, (thickness/outer diameter) = 0.1
It is preferable to use one that satisfies the condition of ~0.3.
Note that the above thickness = (outer diameter - inner diameter)/2. If the thickness of the hollow fiber is small, the pressure resistance will be insufficient, and if the thickness is large, the gas selective permeability will be poor.
