Abstract

The invention discloses a method for continuously rectifying and refining furfural and an accessory low-boiling-point substance. The method comprises the following steps: feeding a pretreated furfuralhydrolysate into a light component removal tower by a pump, extracting acetone and methanol from the top of the tower, allowing the acetone and methanol to enter an acetone product tower and a methanol product tower respectively, and using water as an extractant for the acetone product tower to respectively obtain an acetone product and a methanol product; extracting a dilute aldehyde solution from the bottom of the light component removal tower, feeding the dilute aldehyde solution into an azeotropic primary distillation tower by a pump, obtaining a furfural-water azeotrope from the top ofthe tower, allowing the azeotrope to enter a phase separator, performing condensation and phase separation, returning the obtained water phase to the primary distillation tower, and allowing the obtained aldehyde phase to enter a dehydration tower to remove residual water and acids; feeding acid-containing residues obtained from the top of the dehydration tower and a solution obtained from the bottom of the primary distillation tower into an acetic acid product tower by a pump, extracting wastewater from the top of the tower, extracting an acetic acid product from the lateral line of the tower, mixing a solution obtained from the bottom of the acetic acid product tower with the solution obtained from the bottom of the light component removal tower, and adding the obtained mixed solution to enter a furfural refining tower; and obtaining a furfural product from the top of the aldehyde refining tower, and extracting heavy impurities from the bottom of the tower. The method has the characteristics of high product purity, large variety quantity of products, high yield and low pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for separating and purifying furfural hydrolyzate, in particular to a new method for continuous rectification and refining with furfural as the main product and acetone, methanol and acetic acid as secondary products. Background technique [0002] Furfural, also known as furan formaldehyde, is an important organic chemical raw material and production solvent. Its application is very extensive, the main use is as the raw material for the production of furfuryl alcohol, the second is as the additive of lubricating oil in petrochemical industry, and it can be used as the reactant of rubber and dye or directly used in food, medicine, pesticide and other fields. Therefore, the demand for furfural has been continuously increasing. Furfural, as a chemical that cannot be synthesized from chemical raw materials so far but can only be produced by hydrolysis of plant cellulose such as corncobs, bagasse and wheat straw, has many ...
