Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the preparation of 1,4-butanediol by continuous catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol over a suspended catalyst.
- the invention also relates to a process for separating suspended catalysts from a liquid reaction mixture by crossflow filtration.
- 1,4-butanediol is used in large quantities, for example in the production of THF or as a diol component in polyesters.
- 2-butyn-1,4-diol is hydrogenated in the liquid phase over a suspended catalyst, often Raney nickel or a fixed bed catalyst, with hydrogen at high pressures.
- the temperature during the hydrogenation is, for example, about 150 ° C.
- the catalyst must be separated from the liquid reaction mixture, which is problem-free in the case of fixed bed catalysts. Different devices and methods have been used to separate the suspended catalyst.
- DD-A-219 184 describes a process for the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyn-1,4-diol, in which the catalyst is continuously separated off in a sedimentation vessel and is returned as a recycle stream to the stirred reactor used. The gas is introduced for reduction by a hollow stirrer. In a second stage, the reaction is continued on a fixed bed catalyst until conversion is high.
- DD-A-298 504 describes a process for working up nickel catalyst-loaded hydrogenation products for the production of aniline.
- the suspended nickel catalyst is separated by centrifugal separation Separate the reaction mixture and, if necessary, return it to the reaction.
- No. 4,182,919 describes a process for reactions in systems with suspended catalysts.
- the reactor is equipped with a filter with which the catalyst in the reactor can be separated.
- the filter is arranged in the reactor in such a way that its surface is swept by the stirred reaction mixture, which is to prevent excessive deposition of the powdery catalyst on the surface of the filter medium.
- the filter can be designed in the manner of a pocket, a cylinder, a spiral tube, plate or the like.
- a flexible filter medium is preferably used. It is stated that when a solid filter material, such as ceramic and sintered metals, is used, the filtering speed decreases after a longer reaction time and it is necessary to wash the filter back. This means that the direction of flow in the filter must be reversed in order to remove deposited particles. For this, the course of the reaction must be interrupted. It is also explained that the effect of backwashing is relatively small for rigid filter media, so that the filtering performance drops considerably. Backwashing often has to take place in relatively short periods of time.
- a disadvantage of using sedimentation to separate the catalyst is the need to prepare large sedimentation vessels, which, as essential parts of the plant, cause high investment costs.
- fine catalyst particles that sediment only slowly are not separated. This leads to a constant loss of catalyst of the smallest, generally most active particles and, as a result, to high catalyst costs.
- centrifuges in addition to the removal of very fine particles, also has the disadvantage that the additional apparatus is due to its movements are susceptible to wear and correspondingly high operating costs.
- the separation of suspended catalysts by filtration generally has the disadvantage that a filter cake is built up on the filter medium, which continuously deteriorates the filter performance and is not suitable for stable, continuous operation.
- the arrangement of filter media in stirred reactors in the area of high turbulence does not lead to a solution to the problem, since regular backwashing is required to maintain the filter performance, which means an interruption of continuous operation.
- the flow conditions on a filter cartridge installed in a stirred tank are not precisely defined, which makes it difficult to design a system.
- Crossflow filtration has been proposed to solve the deposit problems in conventional filter media.
- the suspension to be filtered continuously flows over a filter membrane, so that a covering layer build-up due to retained particles can be avoided.
- the suspension flows transversely to the direction of filtration.
- the principle of crossflow filtration is generally described in S. Ripperger, Chem.-Ing.-Tech. 60 (1988) No. 3, pages 155 to 161.
- the filter membranes used are predominantly membranes made of polymers, for example made of cellulose acetate, polyamide, polypropylene, polyvinylidene, fluoride or polytetrafluoroethylene.
- Such a cross-flow filtration method is described in DE-A-28 04 225.
- the catalyst-containing solution is passed over a polyamide filter membrane having a mean pore size of 10 nm at a speed of at least 1 m / s.
- the butynediol synthesis is carried out by continuous Reaction of acetylene with formaldehyde in aqueous solution carried out on heavy metal catalysts suspended in the reaction mixture.
- the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyn-1,4-diol to 1,4-butanediol is carried out at temperatures above 100 ° C., generally 140 to 160 ° C., at a pressure of more than 20 bar.
- polymer membranes only have a temperature resistance up to about 80 ° C and show a poor chemical resistance. For example, they can swell in the presence of certain solvents and thus change their structure. The mechanical strength of the membranes under pressure is often insufficient.
- the reaction mixture is also agitated mechanically (for example by stirring) and mechanically heavily loaded (for example by pumping in a circuit).
- the catalyst particles are ground into an ever finer powder over time.
- an incomplete separation of the catalyst leads to a loss of expensive catalyst
- solid parts remaining in the product stream can lead to contamination in subsequent parts of the system, for example in distillation columns. As a result, these parts of the system often have to be cleaned, causing downtimes of the entire system and thus loss of productivity.
- the desired product should be kept as pure as possible.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a process for separating suspended catalysts from a liquid reaction mixture which avoids the disadvantages described above and ensures that the catalyst is retained as completely as possible.
- the process should also be able to be carried out under conditions which prevail in the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol to 1,4-butanediol.
- the object is achieved according to the invention by providing a process for separating suspended catalysts from a liquid reaction mixture by cross-flow filtration of the catalyst-containing reaction mixture on a membrane in which the membrane is composed of inorganic material and has an average pore diameter of less than 1000 nm.
- membranes made of inorganic material with an average pore diameter of less than 1000 nm for separating suspended catalysts from a liquid reaction mixture, in particular a reaction mixture from the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol to 1.4 -Butanediol are suitable because they guarantee a high separation performance with a long service life and reliable operation of the system.
- the hydrogenation catalysts customary for this reaction are used as catalysts. They usually contain one or more elements of L, VI. , VII. Or VIII. Subgroup of the Periodic Table of the Elements, preferably copper, chromium, molybdenum, manganese, rhenium, iron, ruthenium, cobalt, nickel, platinum and / or palladium. Catalysts containing at least one element selected from copper, chromium, molybdenum, iron, nickel, platinum and palladium are particularly preferably used.
- the metal content of these catalysts is generally between 0.1 to 100% by weight, preferably 0.2 to 95% by weight, particularly preferably 0.5 to 95% by weight.
- the catalyst preferably additionally contains at least one element selected from the elements of II., III., IV. And VI. Main group, the II., III., IV. And V. Subgroup of the periodic table of the elements and the lanthanides as a promoter for increasing activity.
- the promoter content of the catalyst is generally up to 5% by weight, preferably 0.001 to 5% by weight, particularly preferably 0.01 to 3% by weight.
- Raney-type catalysts can be used as catalysts, the production of which is described, for example, in Ulimann, Encyclomann die der Technischen Chemie, 4th edition, 1977, volume 13, pages 558 to 665.
- Raney-type catalysts They are preferably Raney-type catalysts.
- Examples of such catalysts are Raney nickel, Raney copper, Raney cobalt, Raney nickel / molybdenum, Raney nickel / copper, Raney nickel / chromium, Raney nickel / chromium / iron or rhenium sponge.
- Raney nickel / molybdenum catalysts can be produced, for example, by the process described in US Pat. No. 4,153,578. These catalysts are also sold, for example, by Degussa, 63403 Hanau, Germany.
- a Raney nickel-chromium-iron catalyst is sold, for example, by Degussa under the trade name catalyst type 11 112 W® .
- Suspended catalysts are generally used with a particle size of 0.1 to 500 ⁇ m, preferably 0.5 to 200 ⁇ m, particularly preferably 1 to 100 ⁇ m.
- the mechanical stress during the reaction by stirring and pumping the reaction mixture reduces the particle size of the catalyst over time.
- the catalyst particles are exposed to particularly high mechanical loads, so that the comminution proceeds faster.
- the size reduction usually makes it difficult to separate the catalyst from the reaction mixture.
- the average pore diameter of the membrane is less than 1000 nm, preferably 10 to 100 nm, in particular 20 to 50 nm.
- the membrane can also be constructed from any inorganic material.

- the hydrogenation can also be carried out in a bubble column or a jet nozzle reactor, the membrane being arranged in the liquid circuit.
- the membrane made of inorganic material used in accordance with the invention must also withstand pressure stress.
- An absolutely tight separation of the permeate side and retentate side of the filter membrane must be achieved to ensure complete separation of the catalyst.
- the housing of the filter membrane is preferably made of metallic materials, since it has to withstand the reactor pressure. Since the linear thermal expansion coefficients of metallic materials differ greatly from those of ceramic materials, filter material and housing cannot be firmly connected, as this would lead to a breakage of the brittle filter material.
- the membrane is mounted in a special way in the metal housing, as indicated in a cross-sectional view in FIG. 2.
- sealing ring Insert ring as an assembly aid
- the special design of the filter unit, as shown in FIG. 2 for one side of the tubular ceramic membrane, ensures reliable operation even when the temperature fluctuates.
- the catalytic hydrogenation of 2-butyne-1,4-diol is possible with high space-time yields and selectivities with a filter performance that is constant over time. Neither an interruption of the process for cleaning purposes or for backwashing, nor a double execution of the filtration unit for mutual operation is required. As a result, the availability of the corresponding production plant is high and the investment costs are low. By fully retaining the catalyst, it is used optimally and the catalyst costs are kept low.
- the apparatus consists of a 40 liter pressure reactor with a hollow shaft gassing stirrer and thermostatted double jacket as well as a pressure maintenance device.
- a pump circuit with a circulating pump is located on the reactor.
- a tubular heat exchanger with an area of 0.17 m 2 and the filtration unit according to the invention are arranged one after the other on the pressure side of the circulation pump.
- the constant filter performance was shown by an unchanged transmembrane pressure above the filter membrane of between 490 and 520 mbar.
- the liquid reaction discharge contained (calculated anhydrous) during the entire time between 93.5 and 93.7% by weight of 1,4-butanediol.
