Problems solved by technology

These absorbents have improved the absorption capacity and selectivity to ethylene oxide, but in the whole process flow, the process of stripping ethylene oxide still consumes a lot of energy, and the process flow is complicated, the equipment cost is high, and the one-time investment is large.
[0004] Therefore, in order to better realize the absorption of ethylene oxide in the mixed gas after ethylene oxidation and the production of ethylene carbonate, new absorbents and processes are still needed, which can not only absorb ethylene oxide efficiently, but also solve the problem of gas The problem of high energy consumption during the lifting process

Abstract

The present invention provides a composite absorbent and a method of utilizing the same for coupled ethylene oxide absorption and conversion for ethylene carbonate co-production. The composite absorbent includes an ionic liquid having a structure shown as a formula I, a formula II or a formula III and ethylene carbonate. The composite absorbent is used for absorbing ethylene oxide and carbon dioxide. In the process of absorption, the ionic liquid also acts as a catalyst to catalyze reaction between the ethylene oxide and the carbon dioxide to produce the ethylene carbonate, and pre-conversionis achieved while absorption, so that the energy consumption is reduced and industrial application value is high. The composite absorbent is also used for coupled ethylene oxide absorption and conversion for ethylene carbonate co-production, absorption and conversion are directly coupled, one-step production of the ethylene carbonate is achieved, and the method is simple to operate and low in equipment cost, omits a stripping step, reduces energy consumption, and meets requirements on cost-effectiveness, energy saving and environment protection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical industry, and in particular relates to a composite absorbent and a method for coupling and co-producing ethylene carbonate by absorption and conversion of ethylene oxide. Background technique [0002] Ethylene carbonate, known as the green chemical raw material in the 21st century, is a widely used chemical intermediate and excellent solvent. Ethylene oxide, one of the raw materials for synthesizing ethylene carbonate, mainly uses ethylene to oxidize under the action of a silver-containing catalyst to generate ethylene oxide, and impurity gases such as methane and ethane will exist in the process of preparing ethylene oxide. In order to obtain refined ethylene oxide, the industry often uses the absorption method to absorb ethylene oxide from the mixed gas, and then refines it through stripping, concentration and other processes to obtain high-purity ethylene oxide; refined ethylene oxide Alkanes...
