摘要:
Caprolactam is recovered from caprolactam distillation low boilers or high boilers or mixtures thereof by the following steps:(a) crystallizing a low or high boiler or a mixture thereof to form purified capro-lactam crystals and a mother liquor,(b) separating off the purified caprolactam crystals to leave a mother liquor,(c) recycling from 5 to 90% by weight of the mother liquor of stage (b) into stage (a) and transferring the remainder of the mother liquor into the subsequent stage (d),(d) crystallizing the remaining mother liquor portion from stage (c) to form caprolactam crystals and a mother liquor, separating off the caprolactam crystals of stage(e) (d) and recycling the same into stage (a) to leave a mother liquor,(f) recycling from 20 to 99% by weight of mother liquor of stage (e) into stage (d) and channeling out the remainder of the impurity-containing mother liquor of stage (e).
摘要:
Caprolactam is recovered from oligomers and/or polymers of caprolactam by cleavage of oligomers and/or polymers of caprolactam and subsequent working up by distillation of the caprolactam obtained in the cleavage, by a process including (a) cleaving oligomers and/or polymers of caprolactam to obtain an aqueous reaction mixture which contains caprolactam, (b) removing water from the reaction mixture obtained under (a) to obtain a residue, (c) distilling the residue obtained under (b) in an acidic medium and (d) then distilling the distillate in an alkaline medium to obtain caprolactam, or (c') distilling the residue obtained under (b) in an alkaline medium and (d') then distilling the distillate in an acidic medium to obtain caprolactam.
摘要:

摘要:
Caprolactam is purified continuously by passing a 75-95% strength by weight aqueous caprolactam solution together with hydrogen at 50.degree.-95.degree. C. and 1.5-100 bar upward through a fixed-bed supported palladium or nickel catalyst in a tubular zone while maintaining a residence time of from 10 to 100 min.
摘要:
Caprolactam is recovered from polycaprolactam by hydrolyric cleavage of polycaprolactam with from 5 to 50 parts by weight of water per part by weight of polycaprolactam at from 200.degree. to 350.degree. C. under superatmospheric pressure to give an aqueous solution or suspension which contains monomeric caprolactam and oligomers thereof and may contain polycaprolactam and subsequent isolation of monomeric caprolactam from the aqueous solution or suspension by distillation or extraction, by a process in which the hydrolyric cleavage is carried out in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide at a pH of from 5 to 10.
摘要:
A process for the purification of caprolactam from crude caprolactam by distilling the crude caprolactam in the presence of an anorganic or organic acid.
摘要:
A process for recovering caprolactam from oligomers and/or polymers of caprolactam comprises the following steps:a) treating oligomers and/or polymers of caprolactam with from 1 to 20 parts by weight of water per part by weight of oligomer or polymer at from 200.degree. to 350.degree. C. under superatmospheric pressure with a residence time of from 0.5 to 10 hours to form an aqueous reaction mixture comprising polycaprolactam, monomeric caprolactam and oligomers thereof, andb) passing the aqueous reaction mixture obtained in a) into a fluidized bed of alumina at from 250.degree. to 400.degree. C. to obtain a mixture of steam and caprolactam.

摘要:
The storability of molten cyclohexanone oxime containing 0.5-15% by weight of cyclohexanone and 1-8% by weight of aqueous ammonium bisulfate solution is improved by washing the molten cyclohexanone oxime with a 10-42% strength by weight aqueous ammonium sulfate solution and maintaining a pH of 4.5-5.8.
摘要:
A process for working up aqueous mother liquors containing hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and their hydroxylammonium and ammonium salts, entails the mother liquors being intimately mixed with an excess of cyclohexanone based on the content of hydroxylammonium salts, while maintaining a pH of from 3 to 5.5 by adding alkali metal hydroxide solutions, and the cyclohexanone phase which contains cyclohexanone oxime being removed and washed with water until essentially free of chloride.
