Problems solved by technology

[0004] The defect of the existing method of acrylonitrile by-product acetonitrile is that the product quality is difficult to guarantee, the production energy consumption is high and the output is limited
Specifically, since the crude acetonitrile obtained by this method contains various impurities such as water, hydrocyanic acid, acrylonitrile, propionitrile, acetone, acetone cyanohydrin and oxazole, these impurities must all be obtained from crude acetonitrile to obtain pure acetonitrile Therefore, many complex separation and refining processes are required to realize it. At the same time, because the separation of these impurities is relatively difficult, the product quality is unstable; also due to the complexity of the separation process, the recovery rate of acetonitrile is low and the energy consumption is high; The yields of acrylonitrile and acetonitrile, the products of the propylene ammoxidation reaction, cannot be adjusted arbitrarily, that is, the ratio of the two products is roughly a constant value. Therefore, limited by the production of acrylonitrile, the production of acetonitrile cannot meet the demand for a long time
