    摘要: In the double absorption contact process for the production of sulfuric acid, the sump of the air drying tower and/or sulfur dioxide drying tower is connected in cascade series flow with the sump of the intermediate absorber tower which in turn is connected with the sump of the final absorber tower. The connection between the towers is effected by overflow pipes having at least one leg sealed by liquid thereby preventing any mixing of the gases in the various towers. The flow of the acid between the towers is substantially self-regulating and requires no pumps.

    摘要: AN ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE CONTINUOUS PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF POTASSIUM CARBONATE BY THE CARBONATION OF A POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION WITH CO2 ON A COMMERCIAL SCALE WHICH IS TROUBLE-FREE AND REQUIRES SIMPLE APPARATUS IN WHICH A STREAM OF THE POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION IS FED TO A REACTION ZONE WHERE IT IS REACTED WITH CO2 AT 80-135*C. AND 130 TORR-ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE; SUFFICIENT WATER IS EVAPORATED FROM THE SOLUTION IN THE REACTION ZONE TO PRECIPITATE K2CO3-1 1/2H2O; A STREAM OF THE PRECIPITATED POTASSIUM CARBONATE AND A PORTION OF THE SOLUTION IS REMOVED FROM THE REACTION ZONE AS A SLURRY; THE LIQUID AND SOLID PHASES OF THE SLURRY ARE SEPARATED; AND THE SEPARATED LIQUID PHASE IS RECYCLED TO THE REACTION ZONE, PREFERABLY AFTER HEATING TO A TEMPERATURE ABOVE THAT OF THE REACTION ZONE.

    摘要: A PROCESS FOR CONTINUOUS DISTILLATION PURIFICATION OF PHTHALIC ANHYDRIDE WITHIN PREHEATED PHTHALIC ANHYDRIDE IS FED TO THE MIDDLE SECTION OF A DISTILLATION COLUMN OPERATED UNDER A SUMP PRESSURE OF ABOUT 500-800 MM. HG, FORERUNNINGS CONTAINING MORE VOLATILE COMPONENTS ARE CONTINUOUSLY SEPARATED AT THE HEAD OF THE COLUMN, A RESIDUE CONTAINING HIGHER-BOILING CONTAMINATES IS WITHDRAWN FROM THE SUMP, AND A SIDESTREAM OF PURIFIED PHTHALIC ANHYDRIDE HAVING A PURITY OF 99.1 TO 99.95% BY WEIGHT IS REMOCED IN THE VAPOR PHASE FROM THE LOWER PART OF THE COLUMN STRIPPING SECTION. FURTHER PURIFICATION MAY BE OBTAINED BY PASSING THE PURIFIED SIDESTREAM PRODUCT INTO A SMALL VACUUM DISTILLATION COLUMN.

    摘要: The reflux ratio of an industrial distillation column can be accurately varied in a programmed manner by passing the distillate through a reflux ratio regulator having an elongate housing having an elongate fluid inlet in a side wall thereof, a partition fitted axially in the housing perpendicular to the axis of the inlet and movable axially between the ends of the inlet; a first fluid outlet positioned on one side of the partition; a second fluid outlet positioned on the other side of the partition; means for varying the position of the partition along the inlet during the distillation, so that the partition divides the stream of distillate entering the housing in a varying ratio into two streams, one being withdrawn as distillate and the other being returned as reflux; and, optionally, a liquid stream divider downstream of the reflux ratio regulator comprising an elongate housing having in the side walls thereof a fluid inlet connected to one of the fluid outlets of the reflux ratio regulator and two fluid outlets, one connected to the head of the distillation column and one to means for collecting the product; a weir with a plurality of overflow indents in its upper edge positioned axially in said housing between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlets; and a liquid stream dividing wall mounted transversely in said housing and mounted perpendicularly to the weir, so that the stream of liquid flowing over the weir is divided by the dividing wall into two streams, one of which exists through the first fluid outlet and the other stream exits through the second fluid outlet.

    摘要: Crude liquid phthalic anhydride produced from the catalytic air oxidation of o-xylene, and containing minor quantities of acids such as phthalic acid and in addition, compounds more volatile than phthalic anhydride, is subjected to a special pretreatment to remove the acids and the more volatile materials, said pretreatment having a relatively short residence time and comprising heating said crude liquid phthalic anhydride under a first pressure in the liquid phase to a temperature of about 235*-330* C for a sufficient time to convert said phthalic acid to phthalic anhydride and then expanding said heated liquid to a lower pressure than said first pressure to volatilize gases containing at least a portion of said more volatile substances and simultaneously cool resultant liquid to a temperature lower than the boiling point of phthalic anhydride at said lower pressure.
