摘要:
The present invention provides a method for extractive recovery and conversion of selected compounds, such as methacrylic acid (MAA) and 2-methacrylamide (MAM), from a stream derived from purification of methyl methacrylate (MMA) or methacrylic acid (MAA) produced via a conventional ACH route process.
摘要:
This invention provides a method for producing α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid esters in high yield from acetone cyanohydrin and sulfuric acid through the separation and concurrent catalytic conversion of reaction side products to additional α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid ester product. The catalyst comprises at least one Group IA element and may include a porous support and/or a promoter element selected from at least one of phosphorous, boron, titanium, zinc, zirconium, tin, bismuth, cerium, and alkaline earth metals. The method for producing methacrylic acid esters, such as methylmethacrylate (MMA), comprises the steps of: i) providing an alkyl alcohol and an organic traction comprising an alkyl methacrylate, an alkyl α-hydroxyisobutyrate and an alkoxyisobutyrate; ii) vaporizing at least a portion of the organic fraction and at least a portion of the alkyl alcohol; iii) contacting the vaporized organic fraction and alcohol with a catalyst comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium, to convert the alkyl ahydroxyisobutyrate and alkyl alkoxyisobutyrate to additional alkyl methacrylate and produce a mixture comprising alkyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid, alkyl alcohol, and water.

摘要:
A process for producing unsaturated carboxylic acids or unsaturated nitriles by vapor phase oxidation reaction of their corresponding C3 to C5 alkanes, C3 to C5 alkenes, and mixtures thereof, as a hydrocarbon starting material, wherein the process performance is monitored and the path of gasses through catalyst beds is altered. Improved catalyst lifetimes may be achieved.
