Embodiment 1

[0042] The hydrocyanic acid mixed gas I from the hydrocyanic acid synthesis tower was detected. The composition of the hydrocyanic acid mixed gas I was: 8.87% hydrocyanic acid gas, 3.88% water vapor, 1.64% ammonia gas, 1.13% hydrogen gas, nitrogen gas 76.01%, oxygen 1.48%, carbon monoxide 5.67%, carbon dioxide 1.13%, methane 0.39%.

[0043] Hydrocyanic acid mixed gas I passes through a 75% sulfuric acid tower to absorb ammonia and water vapor in the mixed gas to obtain hydrocyanic acid mixed gas II. After testing, its composition is: hydrocyanic acid gas 9.35%, hydrogen gas 1.57%, Nitrogen 79.44%, Oxygen 1.71%, Carbon Monoxide 5.79%, Carbon Dioxide 1.50%, Methane 0.64%.

Embodiment 2

[0045] Pass hydrogen cyanide mixed gas II into 223.3g of 94.5% methional, which contains 3.3g of pyridine. React under normal pressure, control the reaction temperature to 45°C, the ventilation rate to 300L / min, absorb the tail gas with sodium hydroxide, and monitor the residual amount of methionaldehyde by HPLC. When the residual amount of methionaldehyde is less than 0.5%, it is the end of the reaction, and the feeding can be stopped. A total of 270.64 g of light yellow liquid was obtained, the content of 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile was 98%, and the residual hydrocyanic acid was 0.5%. The obtained 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile together with its reaction solution (ie, 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile reaction system) was stored at 3°C ​​for 120 days without any decomposition.

Embodiment 3

[0047] Pass hydrogen cyanide mixed gas II into 222.2g of 94.5% methional, which contains 2.2g of pyridine. React under normal pressure, control the reaction temperature to 40°C, the ventilation rate to 280L / min, absorb the tail gas with sodium hydroxide, and monitor the residual amount of methionaldehyde by HPLC. When the residual amount of methionaldehyde is less than 0.5%, it is the end of the reaction, and the feeding can be stopped. A total of 269.54 g of light yellow liquid was obtained, the content of 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile was 98%, and the residual hydrocyanic acid was 0.07%. The obtained 2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyronitrile together with its reaction solution were stored at 3°C ​​for 120 days without any decomposition.
