摘要:
In the production of acrolein and acrylic acid by the catalytic gas phase oxidation of propylene with a molecular oxygen-containing gas, a method is provided which enables acrolein and acrylic acid to be stably produced with a high yield for a long time from propylene by effectively repressing such secondary reactions as are responsible for the formation of organic acids, high boiling compounds, and tarry compounds, the deposition of carbonized materials, and the deterioration of the quality of products. The content of unsaturated hydrocarbons (excluding propylene) of 2-5 carbon atoms in the raw material for propylene is kept below 500 ppm (by weight). Particularly, it is proper to use a raw material for propylene which has a content of unsaturated hydrocarbons (excluding propylene) of 2-5 carbon atoms of not more than 200 ppm (by weight) and a total content of diene and acetylenic compounds of 2-5 carbon atoms of not more than 200 ppm (by weight). The reaction scheme is shown below:

The disclosed invention is a method for manufacturing an oxidized organic compound which includes a step of forming an oxidized organic compound, in use of a fixed-bed reactor having a reaction tube packed with an oxide catalyst, by supplying at least one type of organic compound as a reaction feedstock gas and using a molecular oxygen-containing gas to carry out a catalytic gas-phase oxidation reaction; and a step of stopping the catalytic gas-phase oxidation reaction. In the manufacturing method, when stopping the catalytic gas-phase oxidation reaction, the supply of the reaction feedstock gas is stopped, after which an inert gas is supplied to the reactor, then a molecular oxygen-containing gas is supplied, subsequent to which the supply of the molecular oxygen-containing gas to the reactor is stopped.
