Problems solved by technology

The succinic anhydride product produced by this method has a high chroma. Since the product is discharged in a molten state, the operation of the reaction process is dangerous, and the product needs to be decolorized and purified, and the energy consumption is high.
[0011] Most of the existing technologies have high reaction temperature and pressure, difficulty in controlling the reaction temperature, difficulty in separating the product from the solvent, easy generation of waste liquid pollution in the production process, unsuitable process conditions for continuous production, complex process, and poor product quality. one or more deficiencies

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing succinic acid. The method comprises the following steps of: performing hydrogenation reaction by taking 5 to 90 weight percent of a maleic anhydride gamma-butyrolactone solution as a raw material at the reaction temperature of between 50 and 100 DEG C under the pressure of between 0.2 and 2 MPa in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst, hydrolyzing a hydrogenation product, crystallizing and separating to obtain succinic acid. The method is can be operated flexibly; reaction conditions are mild and controllable; and products are easy to separate and have good quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing succinic acid, in particular to a method for producing succinic acid by hydrogenation and hydrolysis of maleic anhydride. Background technique [0002] Succinic acid, also known as succinic acid, is a common natural organic acid widely found in the human body, animals, plants and microorganisms. Molecular formula is C 4 h 6 o 4 , the molecular weight is 118.09, the shape is colorless triclinic crystal or monoclinic crystal, flammable, the density is 1.572g / cm 3 (25°C), melting point 188°C, boiling point 235°C, soluble in water, ethanol and ether, insoluble in carbon disulfide and carbon tetrachloride. The natural source of succinic acid is amber, which has been buried in the ground for a long time, from the resin of pines. [0003] The production methods of succinic acid are mainly biological fermentation method, maleic anhydride electroreduction method and chemical method. Chemical methods mainly i...
