production method | benzene is directionally chlorinated or recovered from chlorobenzene production. 1. Directional chlorination of benzene Place benzene in a chlorination reactor, add 0.1%-0.6% antimony sulfide by weight of benzene, pass in chlorine, control the chlorination temperature at about 20 ℃, chlorinate for 30-45 minutes, add benzene Sulfonic acid directional catalyst, and then pass in chlorine gas, when dichlorobenzene crystals are precipitated, the reaction liquid is heated to 50-60 ℃, and then the chlorine gas is slowly passed until the theoretical weight of the reaction liquid is about 95%, yield 70%-75%. Due to the large number of components of benzene chlorinated products, the key to industrial preparation is to select appropriate separation and refining methods for p-dichlorobenzene. There are many methods for separating and refining p-and ortho-dichlorobenzene. The distillation method is more difficult and consumes more energy than the crystallization method, which is not conducive to the stability of the product and the corrosion prevention of the equipment. The recrystallization method has been developed to continuous fractionated crystallization. Emulsification method uses surface active substances for emulsification and separation. This method has the advantages of simple operation, low energy consumption, high efficiency and less environmental pollution. The research on it is increasing day by day and developing rapidly. 2. The chlorobenzene distillation column substrate is recovered from the chlorobenzene production process, the mixed dichlorobenzene is evaporated by vacuum distillation, and the pure p-dichlorobenzene is obtained by crystallization in the crystallizer. There are several preparation methods. Directional chlorination of benzene Place benzene in a chlorination reactor, add catalyst antimony sulfide (Sb2S), start to pass in chlorine, control the chlorination temperature at about 20 ℃, chlorination for 30~45min, add benzene sulfonic acid directional catalyst, and then pass in chlorine gas. When dichlorobenzene crystals are precipitated, heat the reaction liquid to 50~60 ℃, and then slowly pass in chlorine gas until the weight of the reaction liquid increases to about 95% of the theoretical amount, then after post-treatment, filter and dry the product. Reaction equation diagram: Chlorobenzene is further chlorinated. Chlorobenzene is used as a raw material to react with chlorine, and under the action of a specific catalyst, it is directionally chlorinated to produce dichlorobenzene (including p-, o-dichlorobenzene and a small amount of m-dichlorobenzene), combined with high-efficiency The method of packed tower rectification and vertical crystallizer crystallization obtains high-purity pair, o-and m-dichlorobenzene respectively. In the past, distillation residues from chlorobenzene production were also used to separate p-dichlorobenzene and o-dichlorobenzene. |
