摘要:
Oxo-alcohols in the plasticizer range typically contain small amounts of methyl esters having the same alkyl chain as the alcohol itself. These methyl esters are causing product quality problems and environmental problems because of transesterification in the esterification process where the plasticizer ester derivatives are produced. A process using controlled oxonation and hydrogenation conditions is disclosed for the production of alcohols containing low amounts of methyl esters. Plasticizer esters with low amounts of aliphatic di-alkyl esters are also disclosed.
摘要:
A process for producing high purity isopropyl alcohol. In one embodiment, the process includes the steps of: (a) feeding a feed stream comprising at least about 99.9 wt. % isopropyl alcohol into a separation column; (b) separating the isopropyl alcohol into an overhead stream taken overhead from the separation column and a bottoms stream taken as bottoms from the separation column; and (c) removing the high purity isopropyl alcohol at a point: (i) below where the feed stream enters the separation column but above the bottoms stream, or (ii) above where the feed stream enters the separation column but below the overhead stream. The high purity isopropyl alcohol has a metals content of less than about 1 ppb and a water content of less than about 100 ppm. Optionally, the process includes the step of passing the high purity isopropyl alcohol through an ion exchange resin after removing the high purity isopropyl alcohol from the separation column, thereby forming an ultra-high purity isopropyl alcohol that contains less than 100 ppt of any metal impurity.
摘要:
The invention relates to the production of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) by direct hydration of propylene over mixed transition metal oxides co-precipitated with ZrO2. In embodiments the mixed metal oxides have improved hydrolytic stability and are active over a wider temperature range than existing direct hydration catalysts.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process for the production of an alcohol, the process comprising (a) reacting an olefin and water in the presence of a catalyst under conditions sufficient to form a crude alcohol stream comprising alcohol, and a dialkyl ether; (b) separating at least a portion of the crude alcohol stream into an alcohol-containing stream and a dialkyl ether stream; (c) contacting at least a portion of the dialkyl ether stream with an ether decomposition catalyst, the ether decomposition catalyst comprising a mixed metal oxide having the following composition XmYnZpOq where X is at least one metal selected from Group 4 of the Periodic Table of Elements, Y is at least one metal selected from Group 3 (including the Lanthanides and Actinides) and Group 6 of the Periodic Table of Elements and Z is at least one metal selected from Groups 7, 8, and 11 of the Periodic Table of Elements; m, n, p, and q are the atomic ratios of their respective components and, when m is 1, n is from about 0.01 to about 0.75, p is from 0 to about 0.1, and q is the number of oxygen atoms necessary to satisfy the valence of the other components, to form a crude dialkyl ether decomposition stream comprising alcohol and olefin; (d) recovering at least a portion of the olefin from the crude dialkyl ether decomposition stream; and (e) recycling at least a portion of the olefin recovered in step (d) to step (a).

摘要:

摘要:
A process is disclosed for forming a vinyl ester from a carboxylic acid and acetylene in the presence of a zinc carboxylate catalyst, wherein a mixture of carboxylic acid and zinc carboxylate catalyst is formed and the water content of the mixture is reduced to between about 0.02 wt. % and about 0.3 wt. %, prior to introduction of the acetylene into the reactor. Optionally, water is introduced into the reactor during the reaction to hydrate any anhydride by-product of the reaction present in the reactor to carboxylic acid reactant. Water is added during the reaction in an amount that is sufficient to convert the anhydride by-product to carboxylic acid reactant, but does not raise the amount of water in the reaction mixture to a level that will reduce the reactivity of the catalyst or reduce the rate of the vinylation reaction.
