摘要:
The invention is directed to a method for manufacturing bisphenol A. The method for manufacturing bisphenol A comprises: a) reacting phenol and acetone in the presence of an acidic catalyst to form a reaction effluent, and b) crystallising p,p-bisphenol A from the reaction effluent so as to produce a crystal slurry, wherein reacting in step a) is performed in the presence of an inert co-solvent or wherein an inert co-solvent is added to the reaction effluent prior to crystallising in step b), and wherein the weight ratio between said inert co-solvent and said phenol during said crystallising is 60:40 or more.

Various processes for the separation of a mixture containing dichlorophenols are described. In various aspects, the present invention relates to separation processes that produce an extract enriched in 2,4-dichlorophenol content and an extract enriched in 2,5-dichlorophenol content. The present invention further relates to various processes that integrate with these separation processes, such as a process for producing 3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid (dicamba) or salt or ester thereof or a process for producing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or salt or ester thereof.

Disclosed is a method for purification and separation of cannabinoids, specifically cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol, from the dried hemp and cannabis leaves using a combination of a sequence of purification steps including: filtration, decolorization, activation or decarboxylation, dewaxing, a continuous simulated moving bed process, polishing, and crystallization to separate cannabinoids from tetrahydrocannabinol and to provide phytocannabinoid rich oil and cannabidiol isolate. The cannabinoid products can be used in various pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.

摘要:
The present disclosure enables phenol recovery, purification and recycle in a simple, economic manner from waste streams from, for example, a phenol/acetone production process, e.g., a phenol/acetone plant or an upstream cumene hydroperoxide cleavage process step, and BPA production step, for use in the reaction with acetone to produce BPA. The disclosure therefore reduces the overall consumption of phenol in the production of BPA.
摘要:
In the process for producing bisphenol A comprising crystallizing an adduct of bisphenol A and phenol from a phenol solution of bisphenol A obtained by reacting phenol and acetone in the presence of an acid catalyst, treating the formed slurry by solid-liquid separation and removing phenol from the solid component, a layer of the crystalline adduct is formed on a filter by filtering slurry (1) comprising the crystalline adduct, washing the layer of the adduct with a washing liquid, dissolving the layer of the adduct in a solution comprising phenol, producing slurry (2) comprising the crystalline adduct by crystallization, and separating the crystalline adduct by centrifugation of slurry (2). When bisphenol A is separated from the reaction mixture, the adduct of bisphenol A and phenol can be recovered from the mother liquor of the reaction efficiently at a high purity in accordance with the above process.
摘要:
A method of producing 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane comprising: crystallizing a phenol adduct of 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane from a solution comprising 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane and phenol; washing the phenol adduct with a washing solution comprising phenol and water; decomposing by heating the washed phenol adduct in an aqueous solvent to remove phenol from the phenol adduct, thereby obtaining pure 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane.
摘要:
A method for preparing and isolating dihydroxybiaryl compounds, such as 4,4′-dihydroxybiphenyl, is disclosed. The alkali metal salt of the dihydroxybiaryl compound is protonated with the monohydroxyaryl halide compound initially used in the reductive coupling reaction which produced the alkali metal salt. In addition, the alkali metal salt of the monohydroxyaryl halide compound is produced by the process, which can then be recycled as the base and monohydroxyaryl halide in a further reductive coupling reaction to form the alkali metal salt of the dihydroxybiaryl compound.
