策も今までに種々提案されている。 Research and development of a method for producing methacrylic acid by subjecting isobutylene, tert-butanol, or methacrolein to a catalytic oxidation reaction in the gas phase has been underway for some time. However, the current situation is that it has not yet been industrialized. A possible reason for this is that oxidation catalysts have not been sufficiently developed and yields worthy of industrialization cannot be obtained. This means that the methacrylic acid-containing reaction product gas discharged from the oxidation reactor contains many impurities in addition to methacrylic acid, such as methacrolein, acrylic acid, maleic acid, acetic acid, acrolein, acetone, and acetaldehyde. ,carbon dioxide,
In addition to carbon monoxide, there are aromatic carboxylic acids and tar-like substances that are difficult to separate from methacrylic acid and cause major problems in the subsequent purification process, and are known to cause various problems. Traditionally, a method has been used to collect methacrylic acid in the form of an aqueous solution by cooling and condensing the reaction product gas.
At this time, many of the above-mentioned by-products are condensed and collected together with methacrylic acid and water. Substances with relatively low boiling points in the aqueous methacrylic acid solution can be substantially removed by distillation or dispersion operation before being subjected to extraction operation. However, impurities such as aromatic carboxylic acids, maleic acid, polymers, and tar-like substances still remain in the methacrylic acid aqueous solution, causing various problems when extracting methacrylic acid or distilling the extract. . Various measures have been proposed to alleviate these troubles.

Japanese Patent No. 56-16438 proposes a method in which scum that is deposited at the interface between the solvent and the aqueous layer during extraction is mixed in advance with a solvent and an adsorption treatment is performed as a pretreatment in order to separate the scum.

からである。 However, all of these methods complicate the process and do not provide a fundamental solution. That is, the method causes various troubles due to long-time operation, generates a large amount of waste water for cleaning the equipment, and is not a method that can be stably adopted industrially.

精製方法。 An aqueous methacrylic acid solution obtained by cooling and condensing the methacrylic acid-containing reaction product gas discharged from the oxidation reactor in the process of producing methacrylic acid by catalytic gas-phase oxidation reaction of isobutylene, tert-butanol, or methacrolein. A method for purifying methacrylic acid, which comprises first removing light boilers contained in the aqueous solution by distillation or dispersion operation, adding and mixing a basic substance to the obtained methacrylic acid aqueous solution, and then subjecting it to an extraction operation. .

かけられる。 When isobutylene, tertiary butanol, or methacrolein is subjected to a step-oxidation or multi-step oxidation reaction using a catalyst prepared based on molybdenum oxide or its composite oxide, a reaction product consisting mainly of methacrylic acid is obtained. . It is usually collected as a condensed aqueous solution containing methacrylic acid. This aqueous methacrylic acid solution is then subjected to distillation or diffusion operations to remove light boiling point substances, and further subjected to extraction operations using a solvent such as xylene or toluene.

る。 According to the findings of the present inventors, when a basic compound is added and mixed into an aqueous methacrylic acid solution after removal of light boilers and extraction treatment is performed, the various impurities mentioned above hardly migrate to the extract side and most of them are removed. was found to remain in the raffinate. Therefore, impurities that are difficult to separate from methacrylic acid, such as aromatic carboxylic acids, maleic acid, polymers, and tar-like substances, do not accompany methacrylic acid, which greatly reduces troubles during purification of methacrylic acid. It became clear. In addition, it was discovered that by treating the aqueous methacrylic acid solution with a basic compound, the amount of scum deposited on the interface during extraction was significantly reduced, and major troubles would not occur in the subsequent purification process. be. This is because aromatic carboxylic acids, polymers, and tar-like substances undergo decomposition and other denaturation due to the addition of basic compounds, and substances that are more acidic than methacrylic acid form salts, making them difficult to extract. It is presumed that this is because it remains on the raffinate side.

These are advantageously used in the form of 5-50% by weight aqueous solutions. The amount used is in the range of 1 to 10 mol%, preferably 2 to 5 mol%, based on the target amount of methacrylic acid. If the amount added is too large, even methacrylic acid will be neutralized and cannot be extracted, resulting in a loss. If the amount is too small, the effect of addition will be reduced and troubles in the refining process will not be sufficiently prevented. Preferably, the addition method is to mix the methacrylic acid aqueous solution and the basic compound aqueous solution continuously using a line mixer, or to introduce them into a stirring tank and mix them thoroughly. A high temperature is not necessary, and room temperature is sufficient. The thoroughly mixed methacrylic acid aqueous solution is subjected to an extraction operation, the extract is distilled to remove the solvent, light boiling substances are distilled off, and finally the heavy components are separated to produce a product.

とが判明した。 A large amount of scum was deposited at the upper interface of the extraction tower, and after several hours of operation, scum was deposited on the upper viewing window, and the operation was stopped after 10 hours. In addition, although there were no problems caused by adhesion of solids to the extraction liquid solvent separation tower and the reboiler in the light-boiling point separation tower, there was severe adhesion of solids to the heat transfer surface of the reboiler of the heavy substance separation tower. It turned out that it could not be used for long-distance driving.
