Abstract

The invention relates to a thermosiphon esterifier design comprising a riser baffle in the vapor separator. Advantageously, the thermosiphon esterifier design can provide an economic benefit as compared with traditional thermosiphon esterifier designs. Methods of using the thermosiphon esterifier design in a system for the production of polyethylene terephthalate are also described.
