Description

Method for purifying polymethoxy dimethyl ether
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for purifying polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers, in particular to a method for preparing high-purity PODE (polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether) from a polyoxymethylene-containing polyoxymethylene dimethyl ether reaction mixture obtained in a reaction taking polyoxymethylene as a raw material3~4Products or PODE3~5A method of producing the product.
Background
With the rapid increase of energy consumption in modern society, the petroleum resources are increasingly tense, the environmental pressure is also increased, and the development of new clean diesel fuel is urgently needed. The oxygen-containing compound is used as the diesel additive, and no additional device or engine structure change is needed, so that the method is a convenient and effective measure and becomes a new idea for development of the petroleum industry.
Polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers (PODE) are oxygen-containing compounds of the general formula CH3O(CH2O)nCH3Wherein n is an integer ≧ 1 (generally, the value is less than 10, and for PODE of different n, hereinafter, PODEN is expressed). Polymethoxy dimethyl ether, especially polymer with n ═ 3-5, not only has suitable melting point and boiling pointMeanwhile, the diesel oil has higher oxygen content (47-49%) and cetane number (78-100), which is beneficial to improving the combustion condition of diesel oil in an engine, improving the heat efficiency and reducing the pollutant emission; thus, PODE3~5The diesel fuel additive is an ideal component with great application prospect, can be used for partially replacing diesel oil, and improves the combustion efficiency of the diesel oil.
In recent years, the production of PODE has attracted much attention, and a large number of patents have been reported. In the process for synthesizing PODE from formaldehyde and methanol, water is inevitable as a reaction product, which is also a fatal disadvantage of the synthetic route. The reason is that under acidic conditions, the presence of water easily causes the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers to hydrolyze to form hemiacetal, and the hemiacetal is difficult to remove from the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers, so that the separation and purification of the polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers are more complicated.
The method for controlling water content from the source is to prepare polymethoxy dimethyl ether by taking methylal and trioxymethylene or cheap paraformaldehyde as raw materials, however, most patent reports pay attention to the selection of a raw material route and a catalyst, and no deep research report is made on the subsequent separation and purification. US2449269 and US5746785 describe the synthesis of polyoxymethylene dimethyl ethers from methylal and paraformaldehyde (or concentrated formaldehyde solution) in the presence of sulfuric acid and formic acid. European patent EP1070755A1 discloses a process for preparing polymethoxy dimethyl ether by reacting methylal with paraformaldehyde in the presence of trifluorosulfonic acid, the conversion of methylal being 54%, PODE being2~5The yield of (b) was 51.2%. CN103664549A and CN103880614A adopt paraformaldehyde as raw materials and solid super acid as a catalyst to synthesize polymethoxy dimethyl ether, the product of which contains unreacted raw materials of methylal and paraformaldehyde, and the composition of a reaction mixture contains 8.3 percent of unreacted paraformaldehyde besides methylal and polymethoxy dimethyl ether.
In the preparation method of polymethoxy dimethyl ether, not only products, unreacted raw materials, formaldehyde (or paraformaldehyde) dissolved in a system, and even by-product methanol and the like exist in a reaction mixture, and the reaction mixture needs to be separated and purified to obtain pure PODE for adding diesel oil.The preparation processes of polymethoxy dimethyl ether introduced in CN101048357A and CN102786397A adopt multi-stage series rectification towers to prepare PODE3~4Unreacted formaldehyde (or trioxymethylene) with PODE as the target product2The distillate is directly recycled to the reaction unit as a recycled material after rectification, so that the separation of formaldehyde (or trioxymethylene) is avoided. However, PODE2Having good solubility properties, is a potentially good solvent, and must involve the separation of formaldehyde when this fraction needs to be separated off separately or is not suitable for direct return to the synthesis unit.
Our long-term study of the separation by distillation of the reaction mixture obtained by reacting methylal with paraformaldehyde found that PODE was isolated2During the rectification process, formaldehyde is easy to gather into white solids on a condenser and is accumulated along with the operation of the device, so that the blockage of a return pipe and a discharge pipe causes the shutdown maintenance, and the long-term continuous production operation is difficult. Chinese patent CN103333060B discloses a method for refining and purifying polymethoxy dialkyl ether, which adds 40-50 wt% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution into the equilibrium product of the reaction for condensation and reflux to achieve the purpose of eliminating the formaldehyde reaction. However, the method needs 2 hours of condensation and reflux, and has long treatment time, which is not beneficial to the scale-up of production.
Therefore, the separation problem of formaldehyde is a technical bottleneck influencing the continuous and stable operation of the polymethoxy dimethyl ether separation process.
