Abstract: A method for preparing methyl formate in which a raw material containing formaldehyde, methanol and/or dimethyl ether is introduced into a first reaction zone to come into contact with a catalyst A, and a component I is obtained by separation, the component I is introduced into a second reaction zone to come into contact with a catalyst B so as to obtain, by separation, methyl formate as a product, dimethyl ether that is returned to the first reaction zone and a component II that is returned to the second reaction zone, the catalysts have a long service life, the reaction conditions are mild, and the utilization rate of the raw material is high, thus enabling a continuous production for large-scale industrial application.

Abstract: Method for preparing methyl formate and coproducing dimethyl ether by reacting a formaldehyde and methanol raw material (molar ratio range of 1:4 to 1:0.05) in a First Reaction Region at ranges from 50° C. to 100° C. with Catalyst A resulting in post-reaction material separated into Constituent I. Reacting Constituent I in a Second Reaction Region at ranges from 50° C. to 200° C. and from 0.1 MPa to 10 MPa with Catalyst B resulting in post-reaction material, which is separated into methyl formate, dimethyl ether and Constituent II. At least 1% of dimethyl ether is product, and recycling the rest to the First Reaction Region. Constituent II is recycled to the Second Reaction Region. Each component is gaseous phase and/or liquid phase, independently. The method shows long catalyst life, mild reaction condition, high utilization ratio of raw materials, continuous production and large scale industrial application potential.
