The invention provides an industrial production method of N-ethylpyrrolidone, which belongs to the technical field of preparation of fine chemical products, and comprises the following steps: Step 1, adding γ-butyrolactone into a stirred tank, and a tube is welded on the stirrer, The catalyst is filled in the tube, and the solvent flows out through the holes on the tube and fully mixed with γ-butyrolactone; step 2, the material flowing out of the stirred tank is fully mixed with monoethylamine and then sent to the tube reactor, and the feeder has Atomizing nozzle, after the solvent is atomized, it is fully mixed with the material from the upper reaction section, collected, and evenly enters the tubes of the lower reaction section after passing through the distributor; step 3, the product flowing out of the tube-and-tube reactor is sent to the stirring In the jacket of the kettle, after exchanging heat with the material in step 1, it flows out from the outlet of the jacket and enters the refining stage. The invention solves the shortcomings of high reaction temperature, high reaction pressure, high equipment requirements and low environmental protection benefit existing in the existing N-ethylpyrrolidone production.
