Disclosed is a method for producing (meth)acrylic acid comprising a process of recovering (meth)acrylic acid as aqueous (meth)acrylic acid solution from a (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas mixture produced by the catalytic gas phase oxidation of at least one reactant selected from the group consisting of propane, propylene, isobutylene and (meth)acrolein, wherein the recovering process comprises the steps of: (1) feeding the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas mixture into a quenching tower and condensing it in the quenching tower so as to recover an aqueous (meth)acrylic acid solution from the bottom of the quenching tower, in which some of the recovered aqueous (meth)acrylic acid solution is recycled to the upper portion of the quenching tower so as to condense the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas mixture; (2) passing the uncondensed part of the (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas mixture from the top of the quenching tower to a distillation tower; and (3) heating the bottom of the distillation tower to separate water-containing impurity components from the uncondensed (meth)acrylic acid-containing gas mixture and to discharge them from the top of the distillation tower. A system used for carrying out the method is also disclosed.

Disclosed is a process for producing unsaturated aldehydes and/or unsaturated acids from olefins or alkanes in a fixed bed shell-and-tube heat exchanger-type reactor by catalytic vapor phase oxidation. A heat exchanger-type reactor for use in such a process is also disclosed. In the process, at least one of the first-step reaction zone and the second-step reaction zone is divided into two or more shell spaces by at least one partition; each of the divided shell spaces is independently heat-controlled; a heat transfer medium in the first shell space of the first-step reaction zone or the first shell space of the second-step reaction zone has a temperature ranging from the lowest active temperature of a catalyst layer packed in a reaction tube corresponding to the first shell space of the first-step reaction zone or the first shell space of the second-step reaction zone to [the lowest active temperature+20° C.], when referring to the two or more shell spaces corresponding to the first-step reaction zone sequentially as the first shell space of the first-step reaction zone, the second shell space of the first-step reaction zone, . . . , the nth shell space of the first-step reaction zone, and the two or more shell spaces corresponding to the second-step reaction zone sequentially as the first shell space of the second-step reaction zone, the second shell space of the second-step reaction zone, . . . , the nth shell space of the second-step reaction zone; and the first shell space of the first-step reaction zone or the first shell space of the second-step reaction zone is controlled in such a manner that the first shell space provides a reactant conversion contribution per length as defined in Equation 1 or 2 of 1.2˜2.5.

Disclosed is a shell-and-tube heat exchanger type reactor that can be used for a process of producing unsaturated acids from olefins via fixed-bed catalytic partial oxidation, which comprises at least one reaction tube, each including at least one first-step catalyst layer, in which olefins are oxidized by a first-step catalyst to mainly produce unsaturated aldehydes, and at least two second-step catalyst layers, in which the unsaturated aldehydes are oxidized by a second-step catalyst to produce unsaturated acids, wherein a first catalyst layer of the second-step catalyst layers, disposed right adjacent to the first-step catalyst layer, has an activity corresponding to 5˜30% of the activity of the catalyst layer having a highest activity among the second-step catalyst layers. A method of producing unsaturated acids from olefins by using the reactor is also disclosed.
摘要:
Disclosed is a simplified method for recovering acrylic acid from a mixture containing acrylic acid, acrylic acid dimer and impurities with high boiling point, in a stable and efficient manner. The method comprises the steps of: introducing the mixture into an acrylic acid recovering device comprising an acrylic distillation unit integrated with an acrylic acid dimer pyrolysis tank; carrying out decomposition of acrylic acid dimmer under reduced pressure and recovering acrylic acid. The method optionally further comprises a step of recycling a portion of the solution obtained from the bottom of the acrylic acid recovering device to the acrylic acid recovering device.
