Embodiment 1

[0029] Embodiment 1: the continuous production method of formic acid, it comprises the following steps:

[0030] (1) after metering phosphoric acid, hexane and sodium formate, add in the first reactor 1 from one side of the first reactor;

[0031] (2) Make the material in the first reactor 1 spiral forward to the other side of the first reactor 1 along the horizontal direction. During the progress of the material, the temperature is 50-80°C and the pressure is 34KPa-101.3KPa. Under acidification reaction 2-3 hour, and steam acidifying auxiliary agent hexane from the upper end of the other side of the first reactor 1, discharge the crude reactant from the lower end of the other side of the first reactor 1;

[0032] (3) transport the crude reactant discharged from the bottom of the other side of the first reactor 1 to the top of one side of the second reactor 2;

[0033] (4) Make the crude reactant entering from the top on one side of the second reactor 2 spirally advance to th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for constantly producing formic acid and a device thereof, which comprises steps of adding raw materials by measuring, reaction, conveying and evaporation. The device comprises a charging stock tank of acidulant, a charging stock tank of acidizing additive, a charging stock tank of sodium formate, a first reactor, conveyer auger, a second reactor, a receiving tank of acidizing additive and a receiving tank of salt materials. Because the invention provides a method for constantly producing formic acid and the device to carry out the method, the conventional mode of production is changed completely, and reactants can be conveyed to an evaporation system, without waiting for finishing acidification reaction, thereby combining two steps of reaction and evaporation organically. The invention not only simplifies the operation, but also improves the production capacity of formic acid. Each unit of the formic acid production line can produce 1000 tons formic acid in one year. Further, the invention can decrease the loss of materials and energy, and deduce the cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a device for preparing formic acid by acidifying sodium formate, in particular to a method and a device for continuously producing formic acid. Background technique [0002] Formic acid is commonly known as formic acid, molecular formula: HCOOH, molecular weight: 46.02, is a colorless, fuming, flammable liquid with a pungent odor, and is highly corrosive. Formic acid is miscible with water, ethanol, ether, glycerin, etc. Specific gravity 1.2201, melting point 8.3. Formic acid is one of the basic organic chemical raw materials. It can be directly used in fabric processing, leather tanning, textile printing and dyeing, and green fodder storage. It can also be used as metal surface treatment agent, rubber auxiliary agent and industrial solvent. In organic synthesis, it is used to synthesize various formic acid esters, acridine dyes and formamide series pharmaceutical intermediates. It is widely used in industries su...
