Application | 1, 2-butanediol is a kind of alcohol derivatives, mainly used in organic synthesis, preparation of 2-aminobutanol and the like. |
separation of ethylene glycol and 1, 2-butanediol | separation method of ethylene glycol and 1, 2-butanediol, comprises the following steps: a) the crude ethylene glycol stream containing 1, 2-butanediol is sent to the product column for ordinary rectification, and the azeotrope stream containing 1, 2-butanediol and ethylene glycol is obtained at the top of the column, A stream containing ethylene glycol is obtained from the column; B) the azeotrope stream containing 1, 2-butanediol and ethylene glycol enters the azeotropic distillation column, and the stream containing the azeotropic agent is fed from the top of the azeotropic distillation column, A stream containing ethylene glycol and an azeotrope of the azeotrope is obtained at the top of the column and a stream of 1, 2-butanediol product is obtained at the top of the column. |
