An alternative method for efficiently producing lactic acids from a carbohydrate-containing raw material such as cellulose is provided. The method for producing lactic acid and/or lactic acid ester comprises performing heat treatment on a carbohydrate-containing raw material in a solvent containing a catalyst, wherein the catalyst is at least one type of compound selected from the group consisting of a tin compound, an indium compound, and a rhenium compound, and the solvent contains water and/or alcohol.
摘要:
In producing alkanolamines by use of a microporous material as a catalyst, the difficulty in industrially performing the production because of the short lifetime of the catalyst is resolved. A process of regenerating the catalyst by removing an organic substance deposited on the catalyst by means of decomposing and/or extracting the substance is introduced, and thereby steady production is carried out substantially over the long term by switching the reaction and the regenerating processes.

The present invention provides a process for producing a (poly)alkylene glycol monoalkyl ether with high selectivity and high yield. In this process, the (poly)alkylene glycol monoalkyl ether is produced by reacting an olefin and a (poly)alkylene glycol in the presence of a catalyst, wherein: 1) a crystalline metallosilicate is used as the catalyst, and at least a portion of the used catalyst is regenerated, and the regenerated catalyst is recycled as the catalyst for the reaction; or 2) the reaction between the olefin and the (poly)alkylene glycol is carried out in the presence of either or both of a (poly)alkylene glycol dialkyl ether and an alcohol.

In the method of the present invention for producing fatty acid alkyl ester and/or glycerin, as a heat source for an alcohol refining step of refining alcohol from unreacted alcohol that remains without reacting in a first reaction step, at least a part of heat of the unreacted alcohol is used. This allows reducing costs in production of fatty acid alkyl ester and/or glycerin over a solid catalyst.

The present invention provides a process for more efficiently producing an α-hydroxycarboxylic acid ester wherein side reactions due to the α-hydroxycarboxylic acid ester are inhibited or prevented in comparison with prior art production processes.The invention provides a process for producing an α-hydroxycarboxylic acid ester comprising Steps 1 to 3:Step 1. reacting, in the presence of oxygen, (i) a 1,2-diol with a 1,2-diol or (ii) a 1,2-diol with an alcohol to obtain a reaction product containing an α-hydroxycarboxylic acid ester;Step 2. separating the α-hydroxycarboxylic acid ester from the reaction product obtained in Step 1 by distillation under reduced pressure; andStep 3. feeding Step 1 with a mixture obtained by partially or entirely removing water from the reaction product, wherein the mixture contains an unreacted 1,2-diol and/or alcohol.
摘要:
Selective production of a dialkanolamine is attained by controlling the volume preceding the entrance to a catalyst bed and the temperature prevailing under respectively fixed levels subsequent. to the mixture of an alkylene oxide thereby repressing a reaction occurring in the absence of a catalyst and curbing the formation of trialkanolamine. The reactant fluid is prevented from generating a channeling by disposing an exportable structure in a reactor thereby creating the state of a false shell-and-tube type reactor. The reaction is initiated with the inlet temperature set at a higher level than the prescribed level and the alkylene oxide concentration set at a lower level than the prescribed level and thereafter the inlet temperature and the alkylene oxide concentration are gradually changed toward the respectively prescribed levels.

Reactive distillation equipment applicable to a relatively complicated reaction composed of at least two steps of equilibrium reactions, and a reactive distillation method capable of performing the reaction efficiently. Raw material feeding pipes 5, 6 and 7 are connected to a reactive distillation column 1. The raw material feeding pipes 5, 6 and 7 are disposed on different stages of the reactive distillation column 1 in this order from the top of the column downward. It is preferred that the reactive distillation column 1 includes a stage to which no raw material feeding pipe is connected between a first stage connected to the raw material feeding pipe 5 and a second stage connected to the raw material feeding pipe 6, and between the second stage and a third stage connected to the raw material feeding pipe 7. By feeding raw material (A), raw material (B) and raw material (E) from the raw material feeding pipes 5, 6 and 7, respectively, vapor-liquid contacting of raw materials (A) and (B), and vapor-liquid contacting of product (C) and raw material (E) are carried out.
