Definitions
- the invention relates to a distillation process for the separation of chlorine from a gas stream containing oxygen and chlorine and to a process for the production of chlorine from hydrogen chloride comprising this distillation process.
- chlorine or chlorine sequential products such as phosgene are used
- the by-produced hydrogen chloride can be converted back into chlorine by electrolysis or by oxidation with oxygen. The chlorine thus produced can then be used again.
- EP-A 0 765 838 discloses a process for working up the reaction gas formed from hydrogen chloride, hydrogen chloride, oxygen and water vapor in the hydrogen chloride oxidation, in which the reaction gas leaving the oxidation reactor is cooled to such an extent that water of reaction and hydrogen chloride in the form of concentrated hydrochloric acid condense, the concentrated hydrochloric acid is separated from the reaction gas and discharged, the remaining, essentially freed of water and a portion of the hydrogen chloride reaction gas is dried, the dried reaction gas of chlorine, oxygen and hydrogen chloride compressed to 1 to 30 bar and cooled the compressed reaction gas and is liquefied for the most part, wherein non-condensable components of the reaction gas are at least partially recycled to the oxidation reactor.
- the dried and compressed reaction gas mixture is liquefied in a so-called chlorine recuperator designed as an expansion cooler, except for a residual proportion of about 10 to 20%.
- the separated in the chlorine recuperator liquid main stream of chlorine is then cleaned in a distillation column, in which the chlorine is freed of residual dissolved hydrogen chloride, oxygen and inert gases.
- the withdrawn at the top of the distillation column, consisting essentially of hydrogen chloride, chlorine, oxygen and inert gases gas is returned to the compression stage.
- the non-condensed at the chlorine recuperator gas components including the residual chlorine content are partially liquefied in a post-cooling stage at a significantly lower temperature.
- the remaining waste gas from unreacted hydrogen chloride, oxygen and inert gases is recycled to the oxidation reactor. A portion of the recycled gas is separated as a purge gas stream and discharged from the process to prevent accumulation of impurities.
- WO07134716 and WO07085476 describe the beneficial effect of the presence of HCl in chlorine separation.
- the condensation stage for water and HCl is operated so that a beneficial amount of hydrogen chloride with the process gas passes through the drying stage in the compressor and the subsequent chlorine separation.
- a portion of the gaseous hydrogen chloride is taken from the feed stream to the process and fed directly into the chlorine separation, bypassing the other process stages.
- WO 07085476 describes a process for preparing chlorine from hydrogen chloride by the steps of a) feeding a hydrogen chloride-containing stream a1 and an oxygen-containing stream a2 into an oxidation zone and catalytic oxidation of hydrogen chloride to chlorine, wherein a product gas stream a3 containing chlorine, water, oxygen, Carbon dioxide and inert gases is obtained; b) contacting the product gas stream a3 in a phase contact apparatus with aqueous hydrochloric acid I and partially separating water and hydrogen chloride from the stream a3, wherein a gas stream b containing hydrogen chloride, chlorine, water, oxygen, carbon dioxide and optionally inert gases remains, wherein at least 5 % of the hydrogen chloride contained in the stream a3 remains in the gas stream b; c) drying the gas stream b, leaving a substantially anhydrous gas stream c containing hydrogen chloride, chlorine, oxygen, carbon dioxide and optionally inert gases; d) partial liquefaction of the gas stream c by compression and
- step d) the dried gas stream c, which consists essentially of chlorine and oxygen and also contains hydrogen chloride and inert gases (carbon dioxide, nitrogen), is compressed in multiple stages to about 10 to 40 bar.
- the compressed gas is cooled to temperatures of about -10 to -40 ° C.
- the compressed and partially liquefied, two-phase mixture is finally separated in a mass transfer apparatus.
- the non-liquefied gas stream in this case in countercurrent or in co-current with the liquid, which consists essentially of chlorine and dissolved carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride and oxygen, brought into contact.
- the non-liquefied gases accumulate in the liquid chlorine until the thermodynamic equilibrium is reached, so that a separation of inert gases, in particular of carbon dioxide, via the exhaust gas of the subsequent chlorine distillation can be achieved.
- the liquefied chlorine with a chlorine content of> 85 wt .-% is subjected to a distillation at about 10 to 40 bar.
- the bottom temperature is about 30 to 1 10 ° C, see the head temperature depending on the hydrogen chloride content in the liquefied chlorine between about -5 to -8 ° C and about -25 to -30 ° C.
- HCI reflux achieves almost complete chlorine separation, minimizing chlorine loss.
- the chlorine taken off at the bottom of the column has a purity of> 99.5% by weight.
- a significant disadvantage of the aforementioned method is the comparatively high energy consumption for the liquefaction of the chlorine gas stream by either very high operating pressures (15 to 40 bar) or alternatively - at lower operating pressures - very low condensation temperatures (-35 to -80 ° C).
- the object of the invention is to provide an improved process for the separation of chlorine from a gas stream containing at least chlorine and oxygen. It is in particular an object of the invention to provide such a process for separating off chlorine from a chlorine, hydrogen chloride, oxygen, carbon dioxide and, as appropriate, if further inert gas containing gas stream in the context of a method of catalytic hydrogen chloride oxidation provide.
- the object is achieved by a method for the separation of chlorine from a gas stream containing oxygen and chlorine I, in which the gas stream in a lower part of a column K1 and a separately provided liquid hydrogen chloride stream II are fed into an upper part of the same column and the ascending gaseous Current I is brought into contact with the descending liquid stream II, whereby gaseous chlorine condenses out of the stream I and liquid hydrogen chloride evaporates from the stream II, whereby a substantially chlorine-free gas stream III containing hydrogen chloride and oxygen and a liquid stream IV containing chlorine are obtained ,

- the temperature at the bottom of the column is -50 to +90 ° C, preferably -40 to +60 ° C, the temperature at the top of the column is -80 to +10 ° C, preferably -60 to -10 ° C.
- liquid hydrogen chloride in the chlorine separation of the Deacon process provides the heat required for evaporation of hydrogen chloride from the process gas stream conducted into the chlorine separation and at the same time removes the heat to be dissipated in the chlorine condensation from this process gas stream.
