Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating an acetonitrile-methanol-benzene ternary azeotropic system through three-tower pressure-swing distillation. An acetonitrile-methanol-benzene raw material mixed liquor 1 is delivered to an acetonitrile tower T1 via a pressure pump P1 so as to obtain an acetonitrile product 2 at the bottom of the tower, steam at the top of the tower is condensed by a condenser, a part of the steam flows back to the acetonitrile tower T1, and a part of a material flow 5 is conveyed a methanol tower T2 after pressure reduction by a pressure-reducing valve V1; a methanol product 3 is obtained at the bottom of the methanol tower T2, steam at the top of the tower T2 is condensed by a condenser, a part of the steam flows back to the methanol tower T2, and a part of a material flow 7 is conveyed to a benzene tower T3 after pressurization by a pump P2; a benzene product 4 is obtained at the bottom of the benzene tower T3, steam at the top of the tower T3 is condensed by a condenser, a part of the steam flows back to the benzene tower T3, and a part of material flow 9 cyclically returns to the acetonitrile tower T1 via a pressure-reducing valve 2; and the purities and the recovery rates of the acetonitrile product, the methanol product and the benzene product are all greater than 99.90 wt% and 99.50 wt%, respectively. The method provided by the invention can substantially reduce energy consumption in separation process, improves product purity and yield, is simple and uses reasonable apparatuses.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the field of chemical separation and purification, and in particular relates to a method for separating acetonitrile-methanol-benzene ternary azeotrope through three-tower pressure-swing rectification. 【Background technique】 [0002] Methanol (CH 3 OH) is the basic organic chemical raw material and excellent fuel, acetonitrile (CH 3 CN) and benzene (C 6 h 6 ) are excellent organic solvents, widely used in fine chemicals, plastics, pharmaceuticals and many other industries. During the industrial production of a certain cephalosporin intermediate, a ternary mixture containing acetonitrile, methanol and benzene will be produced. Due to the azeotrope between acetonitrile, methanol and benzene under normal pressure, and the formation of a ternary azeotrope among the three components, it is difficult to separate them efficiently by ordinary distillation methods. [0003] The patent (201310140409.9) provides a process for separ...
