Embodiment 1

[0048] The crude propylene oxide solution (stream 1) exchanges heat with the liquid in the solvent recovery tower (stream 5) to 80°C and enters the extractive distillation tower T-101. The extractive distillation tower uses n-octane as the extraction agent, and the solvent ratio of the extractive distillation tower (extraction The flow rate ratio of agent stream 6 to crude propylene oxide solution feed 1) is 4, deionized water (stream 12) is sprayed into the gas phase at the top of the tower, and oil-water separation operation is carried out in the tower top phase separator D-101 after condensation. There are multi-layer partitions in the phase vessel, and the separated oil layer (stream 8) is mixed with the recovered extractant (stream 6) as the reflux of the extractive distillation tower (stream 13), and the separated water layer (stream 9) enters the water washing tower T -103, the number of theoretical plates of the T101 column is 70, the operating pressure is controlled at...

Abstract

The invention relates to an epoxypropane purifying method. The problems of low epoxypropane yield and large extractant loss due to the entrainment of epoxypropane and an extractant in the material flow from the top of an extraction distillation tower in the prior art are mainly solved. The method comprises the following steps: 1, a crude epoxypropane solution enters the extraction distillation tower to obtain a material flow 2 at the tower top and a material flow 3 at the tower bottom; 2, the material flow 3 enters a solvent recovery tower to obtain an epoxypropane product at the tower top and an extractant flow 5 at the tower bottom, and the flow 5 is divided into a flow 6 and a flow 7; 3, the material flow 2 is condensed, and the condensed flow 2 enters a phase splitter and undergoes oil and water separation to obtain an oil layer 8 and a water layer 9; 4, the oil layer 8 and the flow 6 return to the top of the extraction distillation tower; and 5, the flow 7 enters the lower portion of a water washing tower and the water layer 9 enters the upper portion of the water washing tower to obtain wastewater flow at the tower bottom and a flow 11 at the tower top, and the flow 11 enters the phase splitter. The method well solves the problems and can be used in the industrial production of epoxypropane purification.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of propylene oxide purification method, more specifically, the present invention mainly relates to the propylene oxide purification method that contains water, acetaldehyde, methyl alcohol and methyl formate as impurity. Background technique [0002] Propylene oxide is an important organic compound raw material and the third largest propylene derivative after polypropylene and acrylonitrile. Cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) and ethylbenzene hydroperoxide (EBHP) react with propylene to obtain propylene oxide in the presence of an epoxidation catalyst. In addition to propylene oxide, the target product also generates water , methanol, acetaldehyde, methyl formate and other oxygen-containing compounds. In order to obtain high-purity propylene oxide that meets the requirements of polymerization, the impurities contained in propylene oxide must be separated and removed. Because the relative volatility of methyl formate an...
