Phthalic Anhydride

The document describes the process for producing phthalic anhydride through the oxidation of o-xylene. Key steps include: 1) O-xylene and air are blended and preheated before entering a reactor at 300C and 3 atm, where oxidation occurs over a V2O5 catalyst. 2) Control specifications outline maintaining temperatures, pressures, concentrations and flow rates within set points through various control valves and alarms. 3) An instrumentation diagram shows the system layout and input/output components needed for monitoring and control.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION Ftalic anhidride is produced by oxidation reaction between O-xylene and air. Reaction ocurrs in a PBR reactor, where its used V2O5 like catalyst. The operation conditions inside reactor for pressure and temperature are 3 atm and 300C, respectively. To achieve this conditions inside reactor, is necessary blend between o-xylene and air get pressure and pre-heat before input to reactor. Next, its shown the reactions involve in production process of ftalic anhydride:

PROCESS DESCRIPTION

CONTROL SPECIFICATIONS

1)

A loop control is necessary to keep the temperature at 146C in the outlet flow of leaving of the first heat exchanger. If the temperature is lower than 144 oC, a visible alarm is generated, the o-xileno pump is shutdown

2)

If the temperature of o-xileno in the outlet of second heat exchanger is higher than 305 oC, the steam valve is closed. If the temperature is lower than 295 oC, the steam valve is open to allow the temperature rise

3)

The concentration of o-xylene in the mixer must remain at 33% mol. If the concentration is over 33,5% mol, a visible alarm is generated and the valve oxylene should be locked

4)

The pressure exerted by o-xileno in the reactor must be monitored. Is necessary to keep the pressure at 3 atm. If the pressure in the reactor is above this value, a relief valve opens to decrease

5)

The reactor outlet temperature must be maintained between 390 C and 400 C. If the temperature is higher than 400 C, Hitec valve is opened. If the temperature is below 390 C the valve should be closed Hitec

6)

In the distillation column is required distillate concentration is between 95% and 99% of phthalic anhydride. If the concentration is below 95%, it generates a visible alarm, opening a recirculation valve and valve blocks the distillate

7)

The production of ftalic anhydride should be monitored for knowing the total discharge monthly.

8)

Maleic anhydride is a pollutant to the environment thus it is necessary to monitor and register the concentration. A visible alarm is generated if maleic anhydride concentration is higher than 10 ppm

The distillation tower needs a continuous stream flow feeding with phthalic anhydride and maleic anhydride, for this there are two pumps in parallel, the first is always ON, and the second is ON when the first pump fails
