Problems solved by technology

In 2011, about 2.4 million tons of new acetic acid production capacity was added, while the demand was only 4.8 million tons. The problem of overcapacity in the acetic acid industry was serious, which also caused the price of acetic acid to run at a low level for a long period of time.
The reaction system does not have a staged feeding process of acetic acid, so it is impossible to reduce the hydrogen-acid ratio of the system under the condition of ensuring a high hydrogen-acid molar ratio in the catalytic reaction zone, resulting in a large amount of hydrogen circulation in the process and high energy consumption for compression

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and method for preparing ethanol through acetic acid or acetic ester catalytic hydrogenation reaction. According to the device and method, acetic acid or acetic ester and hydrogen are used as raw materials, at least two reaction sections are connected in series, the acetic acid or acetic ester raw material is divided into two or more sections which enter each hydrogenation reaction section, liquid acetic acid or acetic ester or partially-liquid acetic acid or acetic ester feeds among the reaction sections to play a role in direct heat exchange and cooling and raw material supplementation, and a reaction system is provided with one recycle hydrogen compressor, so that the hydrogen acid ratio of the whole acetic acid or acetic ester hydrogenation reaction system is greatly reduced under the condition that the hydrogen acid ratio of each reaction area is higher. Compared with the prior art, by adopting the device and the method, industrial amplification of a process for producing ethanol through acetic acid or acetic ester hydrogenation is well realized, so that the device and the method can be widely applied to industrial production of ethanol.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and method for producing ethanol by catalytic hydrogenation of acetic acid or acetate, in particular to a new process technology for producing ethanol by hydrogenation of acetic acid or acetate in a non-petrochemical route. Background technique [0002] Acetic acid is an environmentally friendly organic acid and an important chemical intermediate and solvent for chemical reactions. It is mainly used to prepare vinyl acetate monomer (VCM), acetic anhydride, acetate, terephthalic acid (used as a solvent), Chloroacetic acid, polyvinyl alcohol, and metal acetates, etc. In 2010, my country's acetic acid production capacity was about 6 million tons per year, accounting for 30% of the global production capacity, with an output of 3.6 million tons and a domestic consumption of 3 million tons. In 2011, about 2.4 million tons of new acetic acid production capacity was added, while the demand was only 4.8 million tons. The probl...
