Embodiment 1

[0013] The electrolyte is pumped into the filter through the electrolyte circulation pump, and after filtration, it enters the non-diaphragm electrolyzer of polypropylene material for electrolysis; the electrolyte contains 5% (mass percentage, the same below) of AN, 8% of hydrogen phosphate Sodium is used as a supporting electrolyte, 2% sodium EDTA is used as a buffer for the pH value of the electrolyte, 5% tetrabutylammonium phosphate is used as a guide ion source, and the rest is water. Use phosphoric acid or sodium hydroxide (or potassium hydroxide) to adjust the pH value of the electrolyte to around 7.

[0014] Titanium is used as the substrate, DSA coated with oxides such as ruthenium, iridium, and tantalum is used as the anode, and Cd is used as the cathode. The anode and the cathode are flat plates with equal areas. Insert the electrode pair into the electrolyte solution, and the effective area of ​​the cathode is 37.0cm×2.25cm.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for electrosynthesis of adiponitrile by using a dimensionally stable anode. The method comprises the following steps of: carrying out electrosynthesis of the adiponitrile in a non-diaphragm type electrolytic bath by utilizing titanium as a substrate, utilizing the dimensionally stable anode coated with oxides, such as ruthenium, iridium, tantalum and the like as an anode and utilizing plumbum or cadmium as a cathode; introducing a direct current of 500 A.m-2-3,000A.m-2 at the temperature of 20-60 DEG C for electrolysis; and maintaining the flow rate of interelectrode electrolytes to be more than 1m.s<-1>, wherein the electrolytes contain 0.5-7% by mass of acrylonitrile, 5-20% by mass of potassium phosphate, sodium phosphate, acid type potassium phosphate or acid type sodium phosphate as supporting electrolytes, 0.1-5.0% by mass of buffer, 0.1-10.0% by mass of guiding ion source quaternary ammonium salt and the balance of water, the pH value of the electrolyte is 6-10. An organic phase containing a product of adiponitrile, a by-product of propionitrile and a raw material AN (Acrylic Nitrile) which does not participate in the reaction is generated from electrolysis. The adiponitrile and the propionitrile are obtained from the organic phase through rectification. The method overcomes the defect of easy corrosion of the anode in the electrolysis, the yield of the adiponitrile reaches more than 80%, and the current efficiency is more than 75%.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a method for electrosynthesizing adiponitrile by using a shape-stable anode, and belongs to the field of organic chemical product production. Background technique: [0002] Adiponitrile (ADN) is an important chemical product with a wide range of uses. It is mainly used in the production of nylon, rubber additives, herbicides and high-grade paints. It can also be used as an extraction agent for the extraction of aromatics. It has a wide range of uses. [0003] As early as the 1960s, the research group led by M.M.Baizer successfully used stainless steel or carbon steel as the anode and cadmium as the cathode to electrolyze acrylonitrile (AN) to synthesize adiponitrile (ADN). However, if stainless steel or carbon steel is used as the anode, the Fe, Ni and other components contained in the anode will be dissolved and deposited on the cathode during the electrolysis process, thereby changing the electrochemical performance of the c...
