Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the existing process of hydrogenation of benzene to produce cyclohexane achieves the recovery and utilization of hydrogen, it undergoes a heat exchange and compression during the recovery process of hydrogen, which greatly increases energy consumption. At the same time, the cost of the compressor is relatively expensive and Follow-up maintenance costs are high
More importantly, due to the large diameter of the bubbles formed after the hydrogen in the existing reactor enters the liquid phase (generally between 5-20 mm), the gas-liquid contact interface is limited and the mass transfer efficiency is not high, thus restricting This improves the efficiency of the hydrogenation reaction, resulting in a longer reaction time and higher energy and material consumption indicators in the process

Embodiment 1

[0066] The volume is 1M 3 50kg / h normal temperature benzene and catalyst are added to the reactor R-1, and fresh hydrogen with a temperature of 100°C and a pressure of 0.3MPa is added to the reactor R-1 through the buffer tank C-1; Motor S-1 and heat exchanger H-1 are mixed and heated to a temperature of 210°C and a pressure of 1.5MPa. When the pressure of the reactor R-1 reaches the set value of 1.5MPa, slowly open the gas phase outlet valve at the top of the reactor R-1 to control the tail gas flow at the set value of 2m 3 / h, to maintain the pressure required for the reaction, the tail gas enters the gas phase inlet of the bubble breaker S-2 through the pipeline 5. After the reaction, the 25kg / h mainly containing the product cyclohexane, a small amount of intermediate products and unreacted benzene is transported to the liquid phase inlet of the bubble breaker S-2 through the pipeline 6 through the pump P-1.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chemistry, in particular to a device for producing cyclohexane by hydrogenating benzene, and also to a process for producing cyclohexane by hydrogenating benzene. Background technique [0002] Cyclohexane is an important organic chemical raw material. Cyclohexane is colorless, easy to flow, and has a pungent smell. It is the main raw material for the production of nylon products. At the same time, cyclohexane is an excellent solvent for cellulose ether, resin, wax, asphalt and rubber. 90% of cyclohexane is produced by hydrogenation of benzene. [0003] In the existing process of hydrogenation of benzene to produce cyclohexane, unreacted high-temperature and high-pressure hydrogen, cyclohexane steam, benzene and some intermediate products enter the cold trap through the gas phase outlet at the top of the reactor, and the organic compounds are condensed into liquid The liquid phase exits through the bottom of the c...
