CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION METHOD OF 2-METHF

摘要

The disclosure claims a continuous processing method of 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF), including the steps as follows: introducing gasification furfural and hydrogen into a first reaction zone and processing a first catalytic hydrogenation reaction; introducing the gas which is output from the first reaction zone to a second reaction zone to implement a secondary catalytic hydrogenation reaction; and condensing the gas output from the second reaction zone to obtain the 2-MeTNF; wherein, the first reaction zone is filled with a catalyst which is used for aldehyde group reduction, and the second reaction zone is filled with the catalyst for aromatic saturation hydrogenation. By adopting the low-toxicity catalyst which is cheap and easy to get, the high-purity 2-MeTHF can be produced by implementing the gas-phase continuous reaction by the furfural under low pressure or ambient pressure, the traditional process which has high pressure, high investment and high risk can be changed, and use of the high- toxicity noble metal catalyst can be reduced. The method provided by the disclosure has simple processing process, low investment, low risk, high throughput and high yield of furfural in unit time; the crude product obtained by the method has high purity, and the impurities can be easily separated.
