Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing tert-butyl ether, belongs to the field of organic chemical industry, and particularly relates to a method for preparing ethylene glycol tert-butyl ether in the presence of a catalyst. The method is characterized by comprising the following specific steps: mixing isobutylene containing 30-90% by mass of inert gas with ethylene glycol, introducing a mixture into a continuous distributed control reaction assembly for reaction, performing flash evaporation on a light component after the continuous reaction, and performing refinement and separation on a reaction product, wherein the continuous distributed control reaction assembly consists of three fixed bed reactors continuously connected in series, the fixed bed reactors are a reactor I (4), a reactor II (7) and a reactor III (11) respectively, different reaction conditions are required in the fixed bed reactors, and same or different solid catalysts are arranged in the fixed bed reactors. According to the method, ethylene glycol tert-butyl ether generated by mixing ethylene glycol with isobutylene according to a relatively low molar ratio is relatively high in selectivity which reaches more than 90%, and isobutylene is relatively high in conversion rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a method for producing tert-butyl ether, which belongs to the field of organic chemical industry, and specifically relates to a method for preparing ethylene glycol tert-butyl ether in the presence of a catalyst as raw materials of ethylene glycol and refinery C4. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol tert-butyl ether has many advantages such as high flash point, non-flammability, and low toxicity. It is an important industrial solvent and an intermediate in chemical synthesis. Because it contains ether bonds and hydroxyl groups in its molecule, it has excellent properties. It is widely used in water-based surface coatings, jet fuel anti-icing agents, brake fluids, inks, dyes, medicines, spices and cleaning agents, and can also be used as the base fluid for synthetic brake fluids in the automotive industry. [0003] The preparation method of glycol ethers usually has the following methods: [0004] ①Reaction method of s...
