Embodiment
With reference to Fig. 1, the bubble tower oxidation reaction apparatus that the production terephthalic acid is used comprises uniformly straight up and down tubular bubble tower, be followed successively by gas processing section 3 in the tower from top to bottom, free space segment 11 and three phase reaction section 1, gas processing section 3 accounts for 10～20% of bubble tower total height, three phase reaction section 1 accounts for 60～85% of bubble tower total height, the free space segment height is 1～3 meter, liquid distributor 9 is installed in gas processing section 3, filler or supporting liquid column plate 10, be used for reclaiming tail gas entrained solid particle and part acetic acid, lower horizontal at three phase reaction section 1 is equipped with gas distributor 2, gas distributor 2 links to each other with the bubble tower inlet mouth, 1/4～1/2 place that is positioned at the three phase reaction section height above gas distributor 2 is provided with material feeding tube 5, be provided with discharge nozzle 6 at the bottom of the tower, cat head is provided with offgas duct 7 and phlegma return line 8, offgas duct 7 links to each other with the inlet of condenser 4, the liquid exit of condenser 4 respectively with material feeding tube 5, phlegma return line 8 links to each other with follow-up dehydration tower, and the pneumatic outlet of condenser 4 links to each other with follow-up tail gas treating unit.Partial condensation liquid is by in return line 8 and feed-pipe 5 reflux towers, and part is sent into follow-up dehydration tower dehydration in addition, and incoagulability tail gas is sent into follow-up tail gas treating unit and further handled.
The principle of work of bubble tower oxidation reaction apparatus shown in Figure 1 is as follows: raw material p-Xylol, solvent comprises water acetic acid and catalyzer Cobalt diacetate tetrahydrate, four water acetic acid manganese, hydrogen bromide (or tetrabromoethane) add in the tower by feed-pipe 5 from the conversion zone middle and lower part continuously, oxygen-containing gas or air are blown in the tower by the gas distributor bubbling of tower bottom, gas is that disperse phase, liquid are external phase in the tower, gas-liquid fully contacts, under catalyst action oxidizing reaction taking place, generates product terephthalic acid solid particle.Because the p xylene oxidation process is liquid-phase chemical reaction control, the bubble tower liquid holdup is big, can guarantee that liquid phase has the abundant oxidation of enough residence time.Simultaneously, the oxidizing reaction oxygen-consumption is big, go into tower air or oxygen-containing gas gas speed higher (air inlet empty tower gas velocity generally at per second more than 0.1 meter), solvent acetic acid and evaporation of water amount also very big (steam flow is generally 2～4 times into the tower air flow quantity), so empty tower gas velocity very high (0.4～1.0 meter per second) in the tower, can greatly strengthen gas-liquid mass transfer and liquid-phase mixing, also can satisfy the requirement of solid suspension simultaneously.Reaction paste is discharged continuously by discharge nozzle 6 at the bottom of the tower, is input to follow-up operation and further handles, and discharging flow is controlled according to liquid level.The water of reaction liberated heat and generation shifts out by solvent evaporation.Because gas flow is big, carrying part liquid foam and solid particulate in the tail gas secretly, traditional bubbling column reactor generally adopts the top expanding reach to slow down gas speed, parting liquid foam and solid particulate, the present invention then is provided with a gas processing section on tower top, filler or supporting liquid column plate are installed, the gas that the phlegma of trim the top of column and Ta Nei rise carries out counter current contact in the gas processing section, one side collecting granules and liquid foam, on the one hand separating acetic acid and water, with back flow reaction section after the part acetic acid separated with water content in the control tower.The reaction end gas that is rich in moisture and non-condensable gases enters overhead condenser by offgas duct 7, and condensed gas send next procedure to handle, and in the phlegma partial reflux tower, part send follow-up dehydration tower further to dewater.
Below main points of the present invention are further described.
1. the tube structure of bubble tower and useful volume
General bubbling column reactor mostly has an expanding reach with separating particles and liquid foam on top, the present invention just need not be provided with expanding reach again owing to be provided with the gas processing section that liquid distributor 9, filler or supporting liquid column plate 10 are installed.The gas processing section highly accounts for 10～20% of bubble tower total height, and during operation, the control of conversion zone liquid level makes in position and leaves 1～3 meter freeboard between liquid level and the gas processing section.
The useful volume of bubble tower refers to the volume of conversion zone, and it is to determine according to the requirement that the assurance liquid phase oxidation reaction is fully finished.Research according to the chemical engineering aspect, p xylene oxidation belongs to the middle slow reaction of isogonic, mainly in the liquid phase body, carry out, and p xylene oxidation respectively to go on foot speed of reaction very responsive to the variation of reactant concn, therefore as long as keep liquid phase that enough residence time are arranged, just can reach high p-Xylol transformation efficiency (more than 99%) and terephthalic acid yield (more than 95%).Compare with stirring tank, the bubble tower gas Liquid Mass Transfer Coefficient will be hanged down, and gas holdup is then slightly higher, and for example, under industrial oxidizing condition, the bubble tower mass transfer coefficient is about 60% of stirring tank, and Gas Hold-Up in Bubble Columns is 0.4～0.5, and stirring tank gas holdup 0.3～0.4.But because the bubble tower aspect ratio is greater than stirring tank, the tower bottom is in the higher zone of oxygen concn, helps eliminating the influence that oxygen transmits, and therefore amid all these factors considers, the bubble tower useful volume need be bigger by about 30% than stirring tank under same production capacity.The bubbling column reactor useful volume that the present invention provides was determined according to the liquid phase residence time, and liquid holdup in the liquid phase residence time=tower/outlet liquid flow rate should remain on 40～120 minutes scope.
2. conversion zone aspect ratio and reaction conditions
The three phase reaction section aspect ratio distributes and determines according to desired gas speed, gas Liquid Mass Transfer Coefficient, gas holdup, gas-liquid mixed speed, solid suspension requirement, dissolved oxygen concentration.At first, bubble tower is that the bubbling turbulence by gas promotes mass transfer, be reinforcing mass transfer, bubble tower should adopt bigger aspect ratio to increase empty tower gas velocity, cause the inhomogeneous of temperature and concentration distribution in the tower again easily but aspect ratio is excessive, gas holdup is increased, and the liquid phase residence time reduces.P-Xylol (PX) oxidation reactor is an evaporation reaction device, reaction heat shifts out by solvent evaporation, like this, near the gas inlet of bubble tower bottom, solvent evaporation is violent, and temperature is lower, and is less at middle part and top evaporation, temperature is higher, and the Lower Half of tower exists significant non-uniform temperature to distribute.In addition, because the feed entrance point of PX is in the middle and lower part of tower, the slurry discharge port is nearer from the bottom, increasing aspect ratio also causes mixing uneven easily, form bad mixing zone on tower top, therefore from mass transfer with mix the consideration of two aspects, should have a suitable aspect ratio to take into account two aspect requirements.Secondly, the aspect ratio of bubble tower is also relevant with temperature of reaction and pressure, consider the requirement of liquid phase dissolved oxygen concn.According to the research of oxidation reaction kinetics, there is a threshold value in the influence of liquid phase oxygen concn in the p xylene oxidation process, about 1.4～1.8mol/m
3Between, surpass this scope then oxygen concn reaction is no longer had a significant effect, then oxygen concn is on the low side to be lower than this scope, causes main reaction to slow down, by-product impurities increases.For the consideration of secure context, the oxygen in the tail gas/nitrogen ratio can not surpass 5%, therefore increases the liquid phase oxyty and only takes to improve reaction pressure and increase by two kinds of measures of height for reactor.In order to keep certain steam output, the variation of pressure and variation of temperature are carried out synchronously.For low-temperature oxidation process (temperature＜170 ℃, tower top pressure＜0.8MPa), partial pressure of gaseous oxygen and liquid phase dissolved oxygen concn are all lower, the bubble tower conversion zone requires to have bigger aspect ratio (6～13) to increase height for reactor, form necessarily, make that most of zone (middle and lower part) can be by oxygen saturation in the tower along the tower oxygen concentration gradient; And for high-temperature oxidation process (temperature＞180 ℃, pressure＞1.0MPa) because partial pressure of gaseous oxygen and liquid phase oxyty are higher, oxygen concn near or reach the saturated requirement of reaction, therefore can adopt lower aspect ratio to increase tower diameter, improve and mix.The height of the bubble tower three phase reaction section that the present invention is suitable for and diameter ratio are 3～7.Corresponding temperature, pressure condition is: 180～205 ℃ of temperature, pressure 1～2MPa.
