Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing acrylic acid, and more specifically, to a method for producing acrylic acid through a dehydration reaction of lactic acid, while simultaneously reducing the loss of acrylic acid and effectively removing by-products.
- Acrylic acid is used as a polymer raw material used in fibers, adhesives, paints, fiber processing, leather, and construction materials, and its demand is expanding.
- the acrylic acid is also used as a raw material for absorbent resins and is widely used industrially in absorbent articles such as paper diapers and sanitary napkins, agricultural and horticultural water retention agents, and industrial waterproofing materials.
- acrylic acid production methods generally involve air oxidation of propylene, but this method converts propylene into acrolein through a gas phase catalytic oxidation reaction and produces acrylic acid by subjecting this to a gas phase catalytic oxidation reaction.
- Acetic acid is produced as a by-product. , which has the problem of being difficult to separate from acrylic acid.
- the method of producing acrylic acid using propylene uses propylene obtained by refining crude oil, a fossil resource, as a raw material, and considering the recent rise in crude oil prices and global warming, there are problems in terms of raw material costs and environmental pollution.
- the problem to be solved by the present invention is to effectively separate unreacted lactic acid from the reaction product produced through acrylic acid production through a dehydration reaction of lactic acid, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology of the above invention, and to reduce energy consumption.
- the purpose is to provide a method for reducing .
- the reaction product supplying to a first cooling tower and separating it into a lower fraction containing unreacted lactic acid and an upper fraction containing water, light gas components and acrylic acid
- supplying the upper fraction of the first cooling tower to a second cooling tower to produce water and acrylic acid It provides a method for producing acrylic acid, comprising the steps of separating a lower fraction containing, and purifying the lower fraction of the second cooling tower to obtain acrylic acid.
- the acrylic acid production method of the present invention by first separating unreacted lactic acid before distilling the reaction product containing acrylic acid, energy costs can be reduced compared to the case where unreacted lactic acid is separated after distillation.
- the amount of energy required for water distillation in the azeotropic distillation tower is reduced, and at the same time, not only is the loss of acrylic acid reduced, but high purity acrylic acid can be obtained.
- 1 is a process flow diagram of a method for producing acrylic acid in one embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a process flow chart according to the acrylic acid production method according to Comparative Example.
- the term “stream” may refer to the flow of fluid within a process, or may also refer to the fluid itself flowing within a pipe. Specifically, the stream may refer to both the fluid itself and the flow of the fluid flowing within the pipes connecting each device.
- the fluid may mean gas or liquid, and the case where the fluid contains a solid component is not excluded.
