Problems solved by technology

This method can obtain high-purity ethylene glycol, but when water is used to directly absorb acetaldehyde vapor, the industrial water is increased and the concentration of the obtained acetaldehyde solution is too low, which requires follow-up treatment, which increases the treatment cost, and the method It is an intermittent method, especially the introduction of the intermittent acid catalytic treatment by-product 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane, due to the corrosiveness of the acid, the requirements for industrial equipment are very high, and due to the 2-methyl- The formation of acetaldehyde and ethylene glycol from 1,3-dioxolane is a reversible reaction. After the batch treatment, it is difficult to ensure that acetaldehyde and ethylene glycol will not generate 2-methyl-1,3- Dioxolane

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recycling ethylene glycol and acetaldehyde from polyester waste water. The method is implemented by the following steps of: (1) introducing esterification waste water into a stripping tower for treating and directly introducing organic matter gas and water vapor collected from a tower top into an acetaldehyde rectifying tower; (2) treating in the acetaldehyde rectifying tower, collecting high-purity acetaldehyde from the tower top and introducing waste water collected from a tower bottom into an ethylene glycol distillation tower; and (3) treating in the ethylene glycol distillation tower, collecting a high-purity ethylene glycol solution from the tower bottom and introducing waste gas and water vapor produced on the tower top into the stripping tower for cyclic treatment. In the method, acetaldehyde and ethylene glycol are continuously collected, so that hydrolysis of byproduct of 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane in the esterification waste water is continuously performed positively and negatively, acetaldehyde with the concentration of over 95 percent and ethylene glycol with the concentration of over 70 percent are obtained at the end of treatment, and the 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane is fully hydrolyzed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recycling and reusing polyester wastewater in a chemical process, in particular to a method for recycling ethylene glycol and acetaldehyde from polyester wastewater. Background technique [0002] For the production of polyester (PET), especially differentiated polyester, domestic enterprises generally adopt the direct esterification method of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol, and the concentration of the esterification wastewater discharged is greatly affected by the esterification reaction conditions. The concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in chemical wastewater is about 20000-30000mg / L. The main organic pollutants in polyester wastewater are ethylene glycol and acetaldehyde, among which acetaldehyde, a volatile component, accounts for about 50% of the total organic pollutants. In addition, due to the uneven technology used in the equipment of my country's polyester industry, various The by-product...
