Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing methanol and ethanol by methyl acetate by way of hydrogenation. The method comprises the following steps: mixing the methyl acetate with hydrogen, wherein the mixture enters into a reactor catalyst bed layer, and performing the hydrogenation reduction reaction under the effect of a catalyst, wherein the reaction temperature is 200-260 DEG C, and the reaction pressure is 1.8-3.0MPa; first, cooling the products generated by the hydrogenation reduction reaction and then, distilling to obtain methanol and ethanol. According to the method provided by the invention, methyl acetate with the purity of byproduct of 50-99% for preparing polyvinyl alcohol is directly used as a raw material, so that the method is low in production cost. The catalyst is adopted for hydrogenation reaction on methyl acetate, so that the efficiency is high and the selectivity is high. After reaction, the product does not contain water, and methanol and ethanol can be separated through simple distillation, so that the reaction percent conversion and the product quality are improved. The catalyst is long in service life, and matters obtained by distillation can be used for the next reaction. Mechanical circulation is realized, and the demand of greenness and environment-friendliness is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing alcohol, in particular to a method for preparing methanol and ethanol by hydrogenating methyl acetate, and belongs to the technical field of chemical synthesis. Background technique [0002] Methanol (molecular formula: CH 4 O; English name: methyl alcohol), is a colorless, transparent, flammable and volatile polar liquid, and is the simplest saturated monohydric alcohol system. Methanol is widely used and is the basic organic chemical raw material and high-quality fuel. It is mainly used in the fields of fine chemicals and plastics. It can be used to manufacture various organic products such as formaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl chloride, methyl ammonia, and dimethyl sulfide, and it is also one of the important raw materials for pesticides and medicines. After deep processing, methanol can be used as a new type of clean fuel, which can be added to gasoline for blending. Methanol reacts with ammonia to ...
