Automated method of controlling and managing process for preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling Automated method of controlling and managing process for preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling / 2342438
Proposed automated method of controlling and managing the process of preparing sugar syrup mixture for crystallisation by cooling makes provisions for regulating the volumetric discharge of water entering the mixer and the level of sugar syrup in it. Regulating the level of the sugar syrup in the vertical mould is achieved by acting on the adjustable-frequency electric drive of the sugar syrup pump. Periodically using the lab the density of the ready sugar syrup is controlled at the exit from the mixer. The active electrical power which is used in the electric motor of the sugar syrup pump, the temperature and pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture, coming from the mixer and water at the entrance of the mixer are all measured. The water-mass density is calculated by its temperature and the density of the sugar syrup mixture by its pressure differential. Afterwards the volume flow rate is worked out by the measured volume flow rate of water, by the estimated value of the density of water and sugar syrup mixture and by the density of ready sugar syrup measured in the laboratory. The dependency ratio of the active electric power from the volume rate of flow of the sugar syrup mixture and the differential in its pressure N=α1Q3УΔPy2QyΔPy , where N - active electric power; QY - volume rate of flow of sugar syrup mixture entering the mixer; ΔPY - pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture; α1, α2 - coefficients. The obtained plot is used for future calculations of volume rate of flow of sugar syrup mixture only with measured values of active electric power and pressure differential of the sugar syrup mixture. The current task of the regulator of the volumetric water discharge is determined on the basis of measured values of this output, estimated values of the density of sugar syrup mixture, water and volume rate of flow of the sugar syrup mixture, the determined value of density of ready sugar syrup mixture and the task of the regulator calculated in the previous control step. The solid content of the original sugar syrup mixture is controlled - by its temperature and density in the ready sugar syrup mixture. This invention makes it possible to reduce the loss of sugar from molasses due to a more qualitative stabilisation of the density of molasses on its exit from the mixer.

The present invention relates to methods of producing caprolactam and may find application in the processing of benzene, phenol, cyclohexane, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, followed by aksamitowana, isomerization cyclohexasiloxane and shipment of caprolactam to the consumer.

A known method of controlling the process of obtaining caprolactam, which regulate the pH value of the reaction medium in the reactor with the correction of the flow rate of the rearrangement product. To enhance the yield of caprolactam measure the concentration of ammonium sulfate and acidity rearrange and adjust the flow of ammonia and gaseous ammonia in the reactor. (Ed. mon. No. 1648946, 07D 201, G05D 27/00 from 24.05.89,)

Lack of control is a limited opportunity to improve performance by caprolactam. Known industrial method of producing caprolactam with the processing of cyclohexanone to caprolactam. Feedstock benzene is subjected to hydrogenation, oxidation, distillation, and then cyclohexanone sent to oxymorphine. Received cyclohexanone sent to isomerization to rearrange and then share in the sump organic layer (lactam oil) and an inorganic layer (ammonium sulfate) and sent to the catalytic Converter for the purification of caprolactam alkali or extraction of organic Rast is Oriflame. (Ed. by V. Ovchinnikov and Rusinskogo VP "caprolactam", M.: Chemistry, 1977, chapters 2, 3, 9.)

The disadvantages of production is low and the quality of caprolactam and low performance when using only the scheme of one benzene.

The closest is a way of managing the process of obtaining caprolactam, including distillation columns, obtaining cyclohexane oxidation of benzene and direction of cyclohexanone-rectified to install oxymorphine, reactors regrouping and neutralisation and then to install the isolation and purification of caprolactam. Cyclohexanone-rectified adjust change of temperature regimes in the columns, and the acidity of the rearranged product regulate the flow of oleum (U.S. Pat. Of the Russian Federation No. 2043340 from 10.09.95,, C07D 201/04, G05 27/00).

The disadvantages are the low productivity of the installation and the quality of the caprolactam to trace when using as a monomer benzene. Besides, not considering the total load, the load distribution monomers for the first and second lines is not taken into account the burden of caprolactam consumers.

The task of the invention is to increase productivity and improve the quality of caprolactam, as well as the expansion of the scope.

The problem is solved in that way in the management of the production of caprolactam from benzene, held in the installation process line including units hydrogenation of benzene with hydrogen distillation of cyclohexanone, oxymorphine hydroxylaminopurine, rearrangement cyclohexasiloxane in caprolactam, neitralizatsii ammonia and a mixture of caprolactam, which are interconnected pumps, pipelines with sensors and valves for adjusting benzene, hydrogen, cyclohexanone, has synthesis, oleum, sensor indicator acidity and pH meter caprolactam, the installation further comprises a second production line for the production of caprolactam from phenol, including units hydrogenation of phenol by hydrogen in the dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol with a circuit, comprising: a pump unit dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol unit rectification of cyclohexanone - pump, the rectification unit cyclohexanone oxymorphine hydroxylaminsulphate, rearrangement cyclohexasiloxane in caprolactam and neutralize ammonia, interconnected pumps and pipelines with sensors and valves expenses phenol, hydrogen, has synthesis, oleum, sensors measure of the acidity and pH meter caprolactam, and also contains a device ratio benzene-phenol, United pipe with blocks hydrogenation of phenol, block oxidation and components the dehydrogenation; the distribution device cyclohexanone units oxymorphine, United pipe with blocks rectification and through the tank mixture of cyclohexanone with blocks of oxymorphine; a switching device of the crystalline caprolactam liquid caprolactam, United pipeline with mixer caprolactam and hub crystalline caprolactam and capacity of liquid caprolactam, ask your overall workload caprolactam, the ratio of benzene-phenol in the hydrogenation reactor, the distribution of cyclohexanone units oxymorphine, shipment crystalline and liquid caprolactam to the consumer and are adjusting accordingly the cost of benzene, phenol, hydrogen units hydrogenation, oxidation, dehydrogenation and rectification, the cost of cyclohexanone has synthesis on the power oxymorphine, oleum on the block rearrangement impact on the corresponding valve. In addition, the hydrogenation of benzene with hydrogen is carried out in two serially connected reactors and adjust the process temperature in the range of 160-230°C and pressure up to 0.8 MPa with recirculation otdelochnih gases. Hydrogenation of phenol with hydrogen is carried out in two serially connected reactors and adjust the process temperature in the range of 150-180°C. and a pressure of 0.75 MPa with recirculation otdelochnih gases. Ocil is of cyclohexane is carried out in two blocks of four reactors and adjust the process temperature in the range of 145-160°C and a pressure of 0.75 MPa. Dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol is carried out in five reactors and adjust the process temperature in the range of 370-450°C and pressure up to 0,065 MPa. Rectification of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone is carried out in two reactors for the production of cyclohexanone-rectified and adjust the process temperature in the range of 120-140°C and pressure up to 0.25 MPa and a ratio of circulation to 20-30. Oxymorphine cyclohexanone by hydroxylaminsulphate conducted in countercurrent system with the faucets in the two reactors at a temperature of 55-80°C and a pressure of 0.1 MPa. Regrouping cyclohexasiloxane in caprolactam is carried out in the reactor at a temperature of 90-110°C and a pressure of 0.1 MPa and correct filing of oleum depending on acidity.

Neutralization of sulfate caprolactam is carried out in the reactor ammonia water to 15 wt.% when applying ammonium sulfate and pH of 4.5 to 5.7 and adjust consumption has synthesis at 50°C and a pressure of 0.1 MPa, and the purification of caprolactam produced from trichloroethylene and alkali.

Performance caprolactam is up to 180 t/year.

Studies of caprolactam showed that to increase performance and quality targets need to use semi-monomers, benzene and phenol with their features.

At the stage of hydrogenation of benzene with the floor is the group of cyclohexane and subsequent oxidation, the rectification and direction of cyclohexanone to oxymorphine and regrouping problems with purification of benzene from thiophene and other trace contaminants that affect the quality of the caprolactam. In addition, there are problems associated with losses in the waste by alkaline water and acidic water caprolactam production, which also reduces the performance of the installation.

At the stage of hydrogenation of phenol with getting cyclohexanol, dehydration, distillation and direction of cyclohexanone to oxymorphine and the rearrangement does not have problems associated with the quality of the trace (e.g., cyclohexene)improves the performance of the installation. It should be noted that the phenol at a price more expensive than benzene, so the semi - benzene and phenol - should you file to install in a particular ratio with regard to the supply of benzene and phenol, with technological preparation lines for processing of caprolactam and having regard to the shipment of caprolactam to the consumer.

Specify the total load (controller 60) 20 t/h and distributed in a mass ratio of 15 t/h of benzene and 5 t/h of phenol using device 5 (valves 6, 7, 8, 9 are open, the valves 10, 11 are closed). The pump 1 through the control loop 2, 3 serves heated benzene in the amount of 15 t/h and hydrogen 60 kg/t (path 2A, 3A) to the hydrogenation unit 4 into the tube space. Depending on the feed coal or petroleum benzene set temperature of 160°C, which is adjustable depending on the concentration of sulfur trace (temperature sensors, condensers for heat dissipation, the selectors to limit values for benzene and hydrogen is conventionally not shown). Next cyclohexane serves to block the oxidation of 12 (depicted one reactor, other reactor not shown), which is served by pipeline oxygen in the air. The main oxidation product is cyclohexanone-oxidat. An important parameter is the stay of the mixture in the reactor and the temperature. The output product - oxidat contains cyclohexanol and other impurities, which remove the temperature control in the range of 180-200°C or residence time in the reactor when the load changes. To reduce losses at the stage of oxidation of the corrected temperature of the process is up to 190°C. Further oxidat directed to the rectification unit 13, 19 (together with the thread of the block 18) to obtain cyclohexanone rectified. The pump 14 through the control loop 15, 16 serves heated phenol in an amount of 5 t/h and hydrogen 60 kg/g (contour 15-a, 15-b) to the hydrogenation unit 17 (shown one reactor hydrogenation) in the pipe space (condensers, evaporators, temperature sensors and pressure of steam, the selectors for the limiting values of phenol conventionally not shown). The set temperature of 175°C. to increase the reaction rate, the selectivity of the process and to exclude cyclohexane, water, cyclohexane and other impurities. Received heated cyclohexanol sent to the dehydrogenation unit 18 (shown one reactor, heat exchangers, refrigerators not shown). The dehydration occurs at a temperature of 400°C and a pressure of 0.7 MPa. For cleaning cyclohexanol (anon) and other impurities produced by the circulation of pump 20 to the dehydrogenation unit 18 unit rectification 19 pump 20 with a multiplicity of 20-30. Then the mixture flows from the blocks 12 and 18) served on blocks rectification 13, 19 to remove impurities (esters, acids, cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone). Threads cyclohexanone-rectified with the rectification unit 13, 19 control on laboratory data and sent to the distribution device cyclohexanone (anon) 21 (valves 22 and 23 are opened, and the vent is whether 24, 25 closed) and through the stirring tank 26 and rashtchy 27 - units oxymorphine. On the first line serves 55% wt. and on the second line of 45% (10,7 t/h, of 8.95 t/h). Routed through the control loop 29,30 anon in the amount of 10.7 t/h on the unit oxymorphine 28, which also served ammonia water in the amount of 2.34 t/h (loop not shown) and hydroxyanisole (GUS) from the block 34 through the control loop 35, 36 of 44 t/h Reaction oxymorphine is carried out in two stages. The first stage creates excess anon, and at the second stage, excess gas with recirculation of the reactants. An important parameter is the pH environment of the reagents, which is maintained in the range of 4.5 to 5.8 with gaseous ammonia. Depending on the concentration of moisture more than 0.2% of the specified 4,5% additionally served on the second stage gas. Distillation of anon and water, oparka of ammonium sulfate and the drying cyclohexasiloxane (oxime) removing the ammonium sulfate, which is returned to production, not shown. Then the oxime through mechanical cleaning filters in the amount of 11.7 t/h (composition for 95.3 wt.% the oxime, and 4.5% water and 0.2% anon) is sent to the isomerization of the oxime to caprolactam at block 39. Two-stage rearrangement is carried out in an environment of oleum (23 wt.%), supplied through the control loop 40, 41. The reaction is carried out at a temperature of 100°C and atmospheric pressure (recirculate the mixture, refrigerators, shut-off valve not shown). An important parameter is the mixing ratio of the oxime-oleum", the temperature and output of the pH (up to 60 wt.%), determined by the sensor 42, or on the testimony of the laboratory analysis. Depending on the indications acidity adjusting the flow of oleum to improve the quality of caprolactam by optical density. For example, to 0.25 t/h when the pH value of 57 wt.%. Next sulphate caprolactam is neutralized in the reactor 47, which serves ammonia water in an amount of 5.1 t/h and pH control environment based on the sensor readings 48 (the pH is maintained within 59-61 wt.%) In the settling tank top organic layer contains a lactam oil (60-70 wt.% caprolactam) and 38-42% of ammonium sulfate, which is returned to production on oxymorphine and in the workshop production of crystalline ammonium sulfate. The mixture is then directed to the extraction with trichloroethylene (TAE) to 8 kg/h and alkali to 0.14 kg/t to improve the quality of caprolactam (stage conventionally not shown). The resulting caprolactam in the amount of 11.7 t/h to send the pump 51 into the container 53.

Similar processes occur when applying anon on the second line of oxymorphine (45% of the specified load - 8,95 t/h) in blocks 31, 34, 43, 49 using circuits 32 and 33; 37 and 38; 44 and 45; and sensor acidity 46 and pH IU the RA 50. The device 21 is in the same position as when connecting the first line oxymorphine. The resulting caprolactam in the amount of 9.9 tons/h pump 52 is directed into the container 53, where it is stirred and send in the amount of 21.6 t/h on device 54 switching crystalline caprolactam liquid caprolactam. The distribution of caprolactam depends on the consumer. When storing caprolactam less than 15 days from the tank 56 is directed caprolactam in the number 8,64 t for transportation in tanks (valves 57, 59 are opened, and the valve 58 is closed). When storing caprolactam more than 15 days sent caprolactam in the hub of the crystalline caprolactam 55 (valves 57 and 58 are opened, and the valve 59 is closed). The hub represents the capacity of the drum where it is cooled to a temperature of 60°C and in the form of crystals comes packaged in polyethylene bags to the consumer in the amount of 12,96 so

Thus, combining the methods of oxidative method of obtaining caprolactam from benzene and the method of obtaining caprolactam by phenolic scheme and adjusting modes at the stage of hydrogenation of benzene and oxidation during the hydrogenation of phenol, dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol, followed by distillation, as well as reducing the concentration of water at the stage of oxymorphine with subsequent correction for submitting oleum on the stage of rearrangement achieve p is increasing its productivity with the desired properties of caprolactam. This increase performance up to 20%, reduce loss of caprolactam to 10% and reduce the amount of microtraces ready caprolactam.

The table below shows the indicators of the quality of caprolactam and performance modes for the load 22 t/h, when the mass ratio of the benzene-phenol 70:30%, the load distribution along the line of oxymorphine 55:45% and shipment to the customer 40:60%.
