摘要
首次以超重力旋转床(RPB)代替反应精馏塔进行催化反应精馏合成乙酸正丁酯的实验研究,以评估超重力技术在反应精馏领域应用的可行性和优劣性。在本研究中心自主设计的新型RPB中,首次用固体酸催化剂制成旋转床填料置于RPB内腔,填充密度为336kg/m^3,乙酸和正丁醇为原料,在RPB中同时进行反应和分离过程。实验中主要考察了旋转床的转子转速对催化精馏效果的影响。结果表明,在转速为700~800r/min时反应的效果最佳,乙酸转化率达88%以上。同时设计催化精馏对比实验,在基本条件相同情况下,催化精馏实验的乙酸转化率为60%,远低于RPB实验,所得产品纯度相差20%以上。因此,超重力条件有利于提高催化剂催化效率。
The synthesis of n-butyl acetate has been carried out for the first time in a novel rotating packed bed (RPB) in order to evaluate the feasibility and applicability of high gravity technology in reactive distillation. The nbutyl acetate was synthesized by using a strong acid cation exchange resin as the catalyst and acetic acid and n-butanol as reactants. The catalyst was packed into the RPB with a density of 336 kg/m3 , and the processes of reaction and distillation were carried out simultaneously. The effect of varying the RPB rotation speed was investigated ; the optimal rotation speed was found to be 700 -800 r/min, giving a conversion of acetic acid of over 88%. When conventional catalytic reactive distillation was carried out with the same proportion of catalyst, the conversion of acetic acid was only 60% , which is significantly worse than in the RPB experiment. The results indicate that high gravity technology can significantly enhance catalyst efficiency in the reactive distillation field.
