  Verfahren zur Herstellung von Methylalkohol aus Chlormethan. 



   Bekanntlich kann man Methan seit langer Zeit fast kostenlos gewinnen, und zwar entweder aus Erdgas oder durch synthetische Darstellung nach verschiedenen katalytischen Verfahren. An Versuchen zur Herstellung wertvoller Methylderivate aus diesem Kohlenwasserstoff hat es nicht gefehlt. Als einfachster und aussichtsreichster Weg kam folgender in Betracht :

 Als Bildungsweise für Methylalkohol sind diese Reaktionen längst bekannt, aber eine

 Umstanden, insbesondere bei höheren Temperaturen. rascher und trotzdem mit guten Ausbeuten durchgeführt werden   kann. war nicht vorauszusehen.   



     Der Erfindpr   hat festgestellt, dass sich je nach d'-n Arbeitsbedingungen tatsächlich zweierlei Prozesse abspielen, und zwar :

   Wenn diese Temperatur erreicht ist, wird das Manometer des Autoklaven ungefähr 12 Atm.

  Process for the production of methyl alcohol from chloromethane.



   It is well known that methane has been obtainable almost free of charge for a long time, either from natural gas or by synthesis using various catalytic processes. There has been no lack of attempts to produce valuable methyl derivatives from this hydrocarbon. The easiest and most promising route could be:
 EMI1.1
 These reactions have long been known as the mode of formation of methyl alcohol, but one
 EMI1.2
 Technically useful processes have already been worked out for the preparation of monochloromethane, but the seemingly simple task is to let the chlorine through in the chloromethane
 EMI1.3
 Circumstances, especially at higher temperatures. can be carried out more quickly and nevertheless with good yields. could not be foreseen.



     The inventor has found that, depending on the working conditions, two kinds of processes actually take place, namely:
 EMI1.4
 
 EMI1.5
 best yield of the wood spirit forms.



   The nature of the new process is best illustrated by a practical example. An autoclave equipped with a stirrer. the one working pressure up to
 EMI1.6
 



   When this temperature is reached, the pressure gauge of the autoclave will be approximately 12 atm.



  Show pressure. Now you let so much chlorine methane flow into a thick-walled storage vessel until the manometer shows about 20 atm. Print shows. The agitator is now at 190

 EMI2.1
 Methane silver pressure is an essential characteristic of the new process, because the rate of reaction depends to a large extent on its value.



   Instead of hydrated lime as an acid-binding agent, of course z. B. caustic soda or carbonate of soda and lime or sulfuric acid of soda and lime etc.

 or to generate 20%.

Claims (1)

2. Ausführungsform des Verfahrens nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass durch kontinuierliche Zufuhr von Chlormethan der Partialdruck dieser gasförmigen Reaktionskomponente dauernd auf annähernd konstanter Höhe gehalten wird. 2. Embodiment of the method according to claim 1, characterized in that the partial pressure of this gaseous reaction component is kept permanently at an approximately constant level by continuously supplying chloromethane.
