The present invention provides a new alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone synthesis process, and relates to the technical field of alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone synthesis, and the new alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone synthesis process comprises the following steps: mixing water, alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone and baking soda, introducing
chlorine gas to carry out a reaction, then removing the
chlorine gas, and after the reaction is completed, filtering the reaction liquid to obtain the alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone. Then, standing for layering, so as to obtain alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone and chloro ester layered water; and the
chlorine ester layered
water jacket is used for the next
batch reaction to synthesize the alpha-chloro-alpha-acetyl-gamma-butyrolactone. According to the method, the steam
energy consumption of triple-effect
evaporation salt
elimination of the chlorine ester layered water can be reduced, about 1% of chlorine ester
dissolution loss in the chlorine ester layered water can be avoided, the cost
advantage of the product is effectively improved, organic
wastewater generated by
distillation can be reduced, and the
wastewater treatment load of a biochemical
system can be reduced.
