摘要:
Processes for separating carbon monoxide from a hydrogen chloride-containing gas, which comprise reacting the carbon monoxide with chlorine to form phosgene and then optionally separating the phosgene from the hydrogen chloride-containing gas. The hydrogen chloride-containing gas that is used preferably derives from a phosgenation or isocyanate forming reaction.

The present invention is directed to a process for the isothermal nitration of aromatic organic compounds, wherein an aromatic organic compound is brought into contact and reacted with a mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid. The mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, and the aromatic organic compound are brought into contact with each other through a mixing nozzle which comprises a substantially cylindrical tubular reactor and an annular gap which surrounds the tubular reactor. The aromatic organic compound flows through the tubular reactor, and the mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid flows through the annular gap, and they are mixed together upon emerging from the tubular reactor and the annular gap, wherein the ratio of the average rates of flow of the aromatic organic compound in the tubular reactor, and of the mixture of sulphuric acid and nitric acid in the annular gap ranges from 0.5:1 to 10:1.

A two-stage process for the preparation of organic isocyanates by reacting primary amines with phosgene in which: a) in a first stage, amine and phosgene are reacted in an adiabatically managed reaction, in which the temperature of reaction is restricted to values between 100 and 220° C. by actively adjusting the absolute pressure in the reactor to values between 8 and 50 bar by decompression, and the temperature is held at values between 100 and 220° C. until the stoichiometric conversion of phosgene has reached at least 80%; and then b) in a second stage, the reaction mixture from a) is decompressed to an absolute pressure of 1 to 15 bar and the reaction mixture is reacted further at temperatures between 90 and 240° C., optionally with the introduction of heat.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for working up organic secondary components which are formed in the one-stage or two-stage nitration of toluene to dinitrotoluene. These organic secondary components are present in the acidic and alkaline waste water from the dinitrotoluene washing step and in the aqueous distillate from the sulfuric acid concentration step, together with small amounts of mononitrotoluene and dinitrotoluene. This process comprises a) combining the acidic and alkaline waste waters from the washing step and the aqueous distillate from the sulfuric acid concentration step such that the resulting mixture has a pH below 5, b) separating the aqueous and organic phases which form by phase separation, and c) recycling the organic phase from step b) into the nitration process.

摘要:
Dinitrotoluene (DNT) is produced by the adiabatic nitration of toluene with nitric acid at a temperature of from about 60 to about 200° C. and at a molar ratio of toluene to nitric acid of from about 1:1.5 to about 1:3.0. The reaction mixture thus-obtained is concentrated to a water content of up to 30% by weight. The dinitrotoluene which is present in the reaction mixture is at least partially (if not completely) removed from the reaction mixture either before or after concentration of the reaction mixture. The DNT which is still present in the vapor generated during the concentration of the reaction mixture is kept liquid by the addition of a solvent to the vapors generated during concentration of the reaction mixture. The solvent added to vapor, together with any DNT present in the vapor is recovered. This solvent/DNT mixture may be recycled directly to the reaction vessel. The solvent/DNT mixture may also be separated. The separated solvent may be recycled to the solvent addition step. The separated DNT may be combined with the recovered DNT product or it may be recycled to the nitration reaction mixture.
摘要:
Dinitrotoluene is produced by nitrating toluene with nitrating acid under adiabatic conditions in a manner such that some mononitrotoluene is present in reaction mixture. The nitration reaction mixture is then treated to remove at least 5% by weight of water before the reaction mixture is separated into an acid phase and an organic phase. The product dinitrotoluene is recovered from the organic phase. The acid phase may be recycled after nitric acid has been added to replace that which was used in the nitration reaction.
