The invention provides an
alkyl ester method produced
glyphosate solvent recovery method. A diluted
methanol solution collection tank is connected with the upper part of a primary rectifying
tower through a pipeline, and the primary rectifying
tower is connected with a return tank I through a condenser I; the return tank I is connected with a methyl
alcohol methylal solution intermediate tank; themethyl
alcohol methylal solution intermediate tank is connected with a secondary rectifying tank, a return tank II is connected to a methyl
alcohol methylal finished product tank, and the secondary rectifying tank is connected to a methyl alcohol finished product tank. The
recovery process comprises the following steps: enabling diluted
methanol inside the diluted
methanol solution collection tank to enter into the primary rectifying
tower, enabling gas inside the primary rectifying tower to condense through the condenser to return back to the return tank, and feeding to the methyl alcohol methylal solution intermediate tank; feeding to the methyl alcohol finished product tank from a secondary rectifying tower extraction pump, condensing liquid at the bottom of the tower through the condenser and then feeding to the methyl alcohol finished product tank. According to the equipment and process provided by the invention, the defect that a traditional liquid-phase
recovery process highlydepends on a
graphite condenser and the problem that a traditional gas-phase recovery process is unstable in operation are solved, the process has the characteristics of energy saving and economical efficiency, and the steam consumption of
glyphosate is 1.2t.
