Description

Verfahren zur Herstellung von Ameisensäure durch Umsetzen von Natriumformiat mit Salpetersäure Das Patent 592 054 betrifft die Herstellung von Ameisensäure und Natriumnitrat durch Umsetzen von Natriumformiat, welches aus Natriumsulfat, Ätzkalk und Kohlenoxyd hergestellt worden ist, mit Salpetersäure. Hierbei wird das Formiat in Form trockenen Salzes in die Salpetersäure eingetragen.Process for the production of formic acid by reacting sodium formate with nitric acid. Patent 592 054 relates to the production of formic acid and sodium nitrate by reacting sodium formate, which has been produced from sodium sulfate, quicklime and carbon dioxide, with nitric acid. The formate is added to the nitric acid in the form of dry salt.

Es wurde nun gefunden, d:aß sich eine Stickoxydentwicklung noch weitergehend vermeiden und die Ausbeute dementsprechend noch weiter steigern läßt, wenn man dafür Sorge trägt, daß während des Umsetzungsprozesses eine über die zur Umsetzung des Formiats erforderliche Menge Salpetersäure in keiner Phase der Reaktion zugegen ist. Die Reaktion wird dementsprechend so durchgeführt, daß man das Formfiat durch langsames Zugeben der äquivalenten Menge Salpetersäure in .einer Konzentration, die 4o bis 5o% HNOs nicht überschreitet, unter gutem Rühren in Nitrat überführt.It has now been found that the evolution of nitrogen oxide continued avoid and the yield can accordingly be increased even further, if you want it Ensures that during the implementation process one of the Formiat's required amount of nitric acid is not present in any phase of the reaction is. The reaction is accordingly carried out so that the formfate through slowly adding the equivalent amount of nitric acid in a concentration, which does not exceed 4o to 5o% ENT, converted into nitrate with thorough stirring.

Diese Ausführungsart hat außerdem den großen Vorteil, daß man im Gegensatz zu der Ausführungsweise des Hauptpatents die Reaktionswärme nicht durch Kühlung von außen abzuführen braucht, was bei Einhaltung niedriger Reaktionstemperaturen infolge der hierzu erforderlichen Kältemaschinen sehr kostspielig ist, sondern zum Abtreiben der entstehenden Ameisensäure verwenden kann, wodurch ein wesentlicher technischer Vorteil bedingt ist, da die zusätzliche Wärmezufuhr zum Abtreiben der Ameisensäure, wie es beim Verfahren des Hauptpatents notwendig war, entfällt.This embodiment also has the great advantage that one in contrast to the execution of the main patent, the heat of reaction not by cooling needs to be discharged from the outside, which is when low reaction temperatures are maintained due to the chillers required for this purpose is very expensive, but for Stripping off the resulting formic acid can use, creating an essential The technical advantage is that the additional heat input to drive off the Formic acid, as was necessary in the process of the main patent, is omitted.

Au-sführungsheispi-el In eine Förmiatlösung, die 68 g Natriumforrniat enthält, werden langsam 126 g 50%ige Salpetersäure unter gutem Rühren eingetragen, wobei das Formfiat in Nitrat übergeführt wird. Die auftretende Reaktionswärme wird zum Abdestillieren der gebildeten Ameisensäure, was zweckmäßigerweise unter Vakuum geschieht, verwendet und so einer Überhitzung des Reaktionsgemisches vorgebeugt. Die anfallende Ameisensäure kann in bekannter Weise durch Rektifikation oder auf andere Art auf die gewünschte Konzentration gebracht werden.Example of execution In a formate solution containing 68 g of sodium formate contains, 126 g of 50% nitric acid are slowly added with thorough stirring, whereby the formate is converted into nitrate. The heat of reaction that occurs is to distill off the formic acid formed, which is expediently under vacuum happens, used and thus prevented overheating of the reaction mixture. The resulting formic acid can be in a known manner by rectification or on be brought to the desired concentration in another way.
