Description

Crystallization device and method for purifying ethylene carbonate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of purification of ethylene carbonate, and particularly relates to a crystallization device and method for purifying ethylene carbonate.
Background
Ethylene carbonate (EC, C)3H4O3And CAS number: 96-49-1), which is a high boiling point solvent and organic synthesis intermediate with excellent performance, and is widely used in the fields of textile printing and dyeing, polymer synthesis, electrochemistry, medicine and the like, wherein the refined EC is one of the raw materials for producing high-energy lithium ion battery electrolyte and has high added value, so that the refined EC of the power battery grade has a wide development prospect obviously along with the rapid development of the power lithium battery market.
Because the performance of the lithium ion battery depends on the performance and the preparation process of the battery composition materials to a great extent, for example, a small amount of water, alcohol and acid in the electrolyte solvent can cause the reduction of the specific capacity, the conductivity, the cycle efficiency and the like of the lithium ion battery, and even accelerate the deterioration of the electrolyte, in the production process of the power lithium ion battery, strict requirements are made on the purity of the electrolyte solvent, and the EC purity is generally required to reach 99.99%.
At EO and CO2The reaction product of (a) contains a small amount of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, water, and unreacted EO, and may contain catalyst residues, etc., in addition to the target product EC. At present, the purification method of battery-grade EC in an industrial device is mainly rectification purification, i.e. EC with purity of more than 90% obtained by crude distillation is further rectified, as described in CN 106588862, however, in the rectification purification process, on one hand, if the temperature in the rectification process is high and the time is long, the polymerization and decomposition of EC are easily caused, and even if there is catalyst residue in the raw material, more decomposition of EC is caused, therefore, in order to ensure the product purity, the temperature in the rectification process needs to be reduced, at this time, a very high vacuum degree (system pressure about 5KPa, absolute pressure) is needed, high requirements are required for both equipment and operation, and the equipment and operation costs are also high; on the other hand, because the purity requirement of the battery-grade EC is very high, the reflux ratio of the rectification process is very high, and the energy consumption is very highHigh. Thus, while purification by distillation is currently the primary method of cell-grade EC production, it is not the most economically desirable method of production and improvements are needed.
By adopting a crystallization separation method, CN101400667B proposes a purification method of feeding an EC solution into a washing tower for countercurrent contact after crystallization, but it is known that a crystal bed layer in the washing tower is not easy to be stable and has high requirements on the operation of equipment.
In addition to conventional rectification and crystallization methods, CN201010598710.0 proposes a molecular sieve adsorption method to dehydrate and remove ethylene glycol from EC material with a purity of about 99.9%, but the molecular sieve is used in a large amount, and adsorbs EC while adsorbing ethylene glycol and water, resulting in EC loss and yield reduction, and at the same time, the molecular sieve is easily saturated by adsorption, resulting in EC material throughput reduction, and further considering molecular sieve regeneration in industrial applications is not an optimal separation method. However, it should be noted that the above processes are all for post-treatment of high purity EC with purity up to 99% or more to further reduce the content of some impurities, such as ethylene glycol and water, but do not consider the prior purification of EC or the design and optimization of the overall process, such as the separation of EC reaction products based on Ethylene Oxide (EO) esterification, and are not suitable for the overall industrial application of EC.
Therefore, compared with the conventional rectification purification method, or other separation methods, or combined separation methods, the direct crystallization separation purification method for the ethylene carbonate, particularly the power battery grade EC is developed, so that the separation energy consumption can be remarkably reduced, the equipment and operation can be greatly simplified, and the direct crystallization separation purification method for the ethylene carbonate, particularly the power battery grade EC can be directly used for industrial production of the power battery grade EC and has obvious advantages.

In the invention, the refrigerant flows along the outer wall surface of the heat exchange tube, so that the refrigerant directly and efficiently exchanges heat with materials in the tube, and crystals of the ethylene carbonate are gradually crystallized and separated out on the inner wall of the heat exchange tube.
In the invention, the sweat is discharged to the lower end enclosure of the shell through the bottom of the heat exchange tube after seeping out of the crystal layer, and then is discharged through the material outlet positioned at the bottom of the shell.

Based on the fact that the fusion latent heat of the ethylene carbonate is obviously lower than the vaporization latent heat of the ethylene carbonate, compared with the traditional rectification and purification method, the method provided by the invention can obviously reduce the energy consumption in the separation process, and meanwhile, the process is milder.
Compared with other crystallization separation processes, the method disclosed by the invention is innovative on the adopted purification device, on one hand, the ethylene carbonate raw material and the cold/heat agent are directly and quickly contacted on the contact surface (namely the inner wall surface and the outer wall surface of the heat exchange tube) by adding the extension tubes at the inner part and the outer part of the heat exchange tube and adding the external circulating pump, so that the heat exchange efficiency in the crystallization and sweating processes is greatly improved, the precipitation of impurities in the crystallization process is favorably reduced, the precipitation of mother liquor mixed in crystals in the sweating process is favorably accelerated, and the purity of EC products is improved.
