Problems solved by technology

[0009] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that in the prior art, the reaction process of cumene hydroperoxide and propylene epoxidation to propylene oxide has a higher reaction temperature rise and requires higher propylene oxide to maintain a higher reaction efficiency. The problem of the molar ratio of cumene hydroperoxide and cumene hydroperoxide provides a new method for producing propylene oxide from cumene hydroperoxide and propylene

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing epoxypropane from cumene hydroperoxide and propylene, which mainly solves the problems of higher reaction temperature rise and higher propylene / cumene hydroperoxide mole ratio required for keeping higher reaction efficiency in the prior art. The method comprises the following steps: raw materials cumene hydroperoxide and propylene liquid phase enter a multisection adiabatic reaction region composed of at least two sections, and the raw materials contact a Ti-silicon dioxide catalyst to perform epoxidation reaction at 15-160 DEG C under the pressure of 1.0-12.0 MPa under the condition that the total mole ratio of the propylene to the cumene hydroperoxide is 2-30, thereby generating the epoxypropane, wherein the raw material cumene hydroperoxide sectionally enters various catalyst bed layers of the multisection adiabatic reaction region, and the epoxypropane-containing epoxidation product is partially circulated to the catalyst bed layer inlets of the 2nd-nth sections of the multisection adiabatic reaction region. The technical scheme well solves the problems, and can be used in industrial production of epoxypropane by cumene hydroperoxide and propylene epoxidation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing propylene oxide from cumene hydroperoxide and propylene. Background technique [0002] Propylene oxide is an important basic chemical raw material and the third largest propylene derivative after polypropylene and acrylonitrile. It is mainly used in the production of polyether and propylene glycol. It is also the main raw material of the fourth-generation detergent non-ionic surfactant, oil field demulsifier, pesticide emulsifier, etc. Propylene oxide derivatives are widely used in industries such as automobiles, construction, food, tobacco, medicine and cosmetics. Nearly 100 kinds of downstream products have been produced, which are important raw materials for fine chemical products. [0003] The traditional production process of propylene oxide is the chlorohydrin process, which includes three steps: chloroalcoholization of propylene and hypochlorous acid solution, saponification of chloropropanol an...
