The present invention relates to a process for preparing methyl methacrylate by a direct oxidative esterification of methacrolein with oxygen and methanol, which is conducted in the liquid phase at a pressure of 2 to 100 bar with a gold catalyst. According to the invention, the liquid phase is withdrawn continuously from the reactor and optionally enriched with oxygenous gas, the pH, after the withdrawal, is adjusted to a pH between 5 and 9 by means of addition of a basic solution and this liquid phase is conducted back into the reactor again to an extent of at least 50%.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing methyl methacrylate by direct oxidative esterification of methacrolein and the preparation of methacrolein. It is a feature of this novel process that it was possible to distinctly increase the yield and the efficiency of the process compared to the prior art through a sequence of different distillation steps.
摘要:
Catalysts for oxidative esterification can be used, for example, for converting (meth)acrolein to methyl (meth)acrylate. The catalysts are especially notable for high mechanical and chemical stability even over very long time periods, including activity and/or selectivity relatively in continuous operation in media having even a small water content.

The invention relates to a process for preparation of at least one of methacrylic acid and a methacrylic acid ester, comprising the process stepsgas phase oxidation of at least one C4 compound, quenching of the reaction phase, separation and purification of the obtained methacrylic acid and optionally esterification, wherein the C4 compound is a methacrolein comprising mixture, originating from at least two different methacrolein sources, a first methacrolein source being a feed stream obtained by the heterogeneously catalyzed gas phase oxidation of isobutylene or tert-butyl alcohol or isobutylaldehyde or a mixture of two or more thereof, a second methacrolein source being a feed stream obtained by the reaction of propionaldehyde with a C1 extending agent, preferably formaldehyde, and where said methacrolein can be obtained either completely from the first methacrolein source, or completely from the second methacrolein source or from any mixture of both.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an optimized process for preparing methacrylic acid, wherein methacrolein is prepared in a first stage from propionaldehyde and formaldehyde by means of a Mannich reaction and oxidized in a second stage to methacrylic acid. More particularly, the present invention relates to the reduction in the amounts of catalyst to be used in the first stage, especially to the reduction in the amounts of acid to be used here, by virtue of the additional installation of recycling streams suitable for the purpose.
