Embodiment 1

[0025] A treatment method for oxygen-containing tail gas in an ethylene glycol production unit, such as figure 1 As shown, the oxygen-containing tail gas 15 enters the tubular reactor 2 through the gas-gas heat exchanger 3, and under the action of a noble metal catalyst such as silver or platinum, a catalytic oxidation reaction occurs on the side of the tube, so that the oxygen in the tail gas and ethylene fully react , The heat produced by the tubular reactor 2 is sent out through the steam drum 1. In addition, the reaction temperature of the catalytic oxidation is controlled by the pressure of the deheated steam drum 1. The treated tail gas 9 is cooled by the cooler 4 and enters the ethylene recovery unit 5, and the tail gas from which ethylene has been removed enters the liquid separation tank 6 for subsequent treatment.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for treating oxygen-containing tail gas in an ethylene glycol production device. The problems that in the prior art, the oxygen-containing tail gas treating is high in cost, large in energy consumption and low in safety, and pollutes the environment are mainly solved. According to the method for treating the oxygen-containing tail gas in the ethylene glycol production device, by adopting the technical scheme that the oxygen-containing tail gas from the ethylene oxide-ethylene glycol device enters a shell and tube reactor through a gas-gas heat exchanger and generates a catalytic oxidation reaction on the tube side under the effect of a noble metal catalyst, thus oxygen in the tail gas sufficiently reacts with ethylene, and the oxygen in the tail gas is removed; and then the treated tail gas is cooled through a cooler and then enters an ethylene recovering unit, and after the ethylene is removed, the tail gas enters a liquid separating tank to be subjected to subsequent treatment, the problems are solved well, and the method can be used for treating the oxygen-containing tail gas in the ethylene glycol production device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a treatment method for oxygen-containing tail gas in an ethylene glycol production device. Background technique [0002] Ethylene oxide (EO), also known as ethylene oxide, is a colorless gas at room temperature and is miscible with water, alcohol, and ether. The chemical properties are lively, and it is very easy to carry out ring-opening addition reaction with compounds containing active hydrogen to generate a series of derivatives. Common ethylene oxide derivatives mainly include ethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, glycol ether, ethanolamine, etc. At present, about 70% of the world's ethylene oxide is used to produce ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol, about 11% is used to produce polyether nonionic surfactants, and about 19% is used to produce ethanolamine, ethylene glycol, etc. Alcohol ether, choline chloride and other intensive processing products. [0003] The hydration of ethylene oxide to produce ethylene glycol...
