Abstract

This invention relates to a process for producing acroleic acid and esters thereof, concretely to acroleic acid azeotropic refining and acetic acid recovering process, wherein: apply ethyl cyclohexane, toluene, ethyl propionate and toluene derivative as the entrainer during the acroleic acid azeotropic distillation, set up a acroleic acid azeotropic column and an acetic acid removing column to remove the water and acetic acid in the crude acroleic acid solution, set up an organic film and air extraction column and an acetic acid azeotropic column to purify the 2-8% side produced acetic acid to be acetic acid product with concentration more than 85%. This invention is characterized of high dehydration rate and acetic acid removing rate. The byproduct acetic ester can be produced to be acetic acid product, which saves waste water treatment cost and improves the equipment benefits. By applying ethyl cyclohexane, toluene, ethyl propionate and toluene derivative as the entrainer, it can decrease the bottom temperature of the acroleic acid azeotropic column, which can decrease the polymerization tendency of the acroleic acid, improve the conversion rate of propone, decrease the acroleic acid carry-over loss and acroleic acid consumption, improve the product yield, extend the production cycle and improve the economical benefits of the apparatus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing acrylic acid, more specifically, relates to the process of rectifying and purifying crude acrylic acid, removing water and acetic acid contained therein and recovering the by-product acetic acid. Background technique [0002] The acrylic acid aqueous solution produced by the two-step oxidation of propylene contains 1-6% acetic acid, 30-45% water, 35-60% acrylic acid and a small amount of light and heavy components. Since the boiling points of water, acetic acid, and acrylic acid are relatively close, the purification of acrylic acid by conventional rectification requires a large amount of steam, and the conventional rectification requires a high temperature in the tower, which intensifies the tendency of self-polymerization of acrylic acid and affects the long-term stability of the device. run. At present, the effective way to solve this problem is to separate and purify...
