摘要:
Disclosed is a method for jointly producing (i) formic acid (III); (ii) a carboxylic acid comprising at least two carbon atoms (II) and/or the derivatives thereof; and (iii) a carboxylic acid anhydride (VII). According to said method, (a) a formic acid ester (I) is transesterfied to formic acid (III) and the corresponding carboxylic acid ester (IV) by means of a carboxylic acid comprising at least two carbon atoms (II); (b) at least one portion of the carboxylic acid ester (IV) formed in step (a) is carbonylated in order to obtain the carboxylic acid anhydride (V); and (c) at least one portion of the carboxylic acid anhydride (V) formed in step (b) is further dehydrated by means of a carboxylic acid (VI) so as to form a carboxylic acid anhydride (VII) and the carboxylic acid (II).
摘要:
A process for preparing acrolein or acrylic acid or a mixture thereof from propane, in which the propane is initially dehydrogenated under heterogeneous catalysis to give propene, secondary components are removed and the remaining gas mixture, comprising propane and propene, is subjected to the heterogeneously catalyzed partial oxidation to acrolein or acrylic acid or a mixture thereof as the target product, target product is removed from the product gas mixture and the remaining residual gas, comprising excess oxygen and unconverted propane, is recycled into the propane dehydrogenation in such a way that the other propane fed to the dehydrogenation is at least partly converted under dehydrogenating conditions at the recycle point.
摘要:
In a process for the two-stage catalytic gas-phase oxidation of propene to acrylic acid, the reaction gas starting mixture is passed, in a tube-bundle reactor, with a propene loading of ≧160 l (S.T.P.) of propene/l·h, first over a fixed catalyst bed 1 present in two successive temperature zones A, B and then over a fixed catalyst bed 2 which is housed either in one further temperature zone C or in two further temperature zones D, E, the temperature of the zone A being kept at a lower temperature than the zone B and the temperature of the zone D at a lower temperature than the zone E.
摘要:
A process for preparing acrylic acid or methacrylic acid comprises (a) preparing a gaseous product mixture having essentially the composition of a reaction mixture of the catalytic gas phase oxidation of C3-/C4-alkanes, -alkenes, -alkanols and/or -alkanals and/or precursors thereof to form acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, characterized by (b) condensing said product mixture, (c) crystallizing acrylic acid or methacrylic acid from the solution obtained in step (b), and (d) removing the resulting crystals from the mother liquor.
摘要:
A process for the continuous recovery of (meth)acrylic acid from a liquid starting mixture containing (meth)acrylic acid, a high-boiling organic solvent and low boilers, medium boilers and high boilers is proposed, the mixture being separated into a first part-stream (a), which, in addition to (meth)acrylic acid, contains the low boilers and a part each of the medium boilers and high boilers, and a second part-stream (b), which contains the predominant part of the (meth)acrylic acid and is completely or virtually completely free of low boilers, and the (meth)acrylic acid being recovered from the part-stream (b).
摘要:
In a process for the preparation of acrolein by gas-phase partial oxidation under heterogeneous catalysis, a reaction gas starting mixture which contains propene and molecular oxygen in a molar C3H6:O2 ratio of >1 is reacted in reaction zones connected in series, at elevated temperatures, over solid-state catalysts, further molecular oxygen being added to the reaction gas mixture in the course of the partial oxidation.
摘要:
In a process for the preparation of acrolein and/or acrylic acid from propane, the propane is subjected, in a first reaction stage, to a partial oxydehydrogenation with molecular oxygen under homogeneous and/or heterogeneous catalysis to give propene and the product gas mixture formed in the first reaction stage is then used for the preparation of acrolein and/or acrylic acid by gas-phase catalytic propene oxidation.
