Methyl Acetate Plant
Proprietary Technologyand Plants
Technology Introduction:
The methyl acetate production process SL TEC propose is based on the condensation of acetic acid and methanol over a solid acid catalyst. This kind of catalyst is the best solution when high yields, low acetic acid and methanol consumption, consistent product and low equipment corrosion are required on reliable basis. Under normal operation, this catalyst has an average service life of three years or longer.
The reaction conditions are moderate, however, as methyl acetate, methanol and water will form binary and tertiary azeotropic mixtures, it is very difficult to prepare high purity product by conventional methods.
In the traditional process, one reactor and nine distillation columns are required to produce high purity methyl acetate. And they have main disadvantages incl.
1. The synthesis of methyl acetate is reversible, and due to the limitation of chemical equilibrium, the conversion yield is low.
2. Methyl acetate-water binary azeotrope, methyl acetate-methanol binary azeotrope, and methyl acetate-methanol-water ternary azeotrope have boiling points quite close to that of azeotrope, thereby, it is difficult to separate and the product purification is very complicated.
Distillation is a process of separating the component substances from a liquid mixture by selective evaporation and condensation. The vacuum distillation has many like lower energy requirement, better quality products and less scaling on the distillation trays due to sludge. The vacuum distillation produces ethanol of international quality standards and there is a lot of demand of ethanol from the vacuum distillation process. Distillation Process in which the components of a substance or liquid mixture are separated by heating it to a certain temperature and condensing the resulting vapors. Some substances have components that vaporize at different temperatures and thus can be separated by condensing their vapors in turn. Distillation is also used as a purification process in which non-volatile components are separated from volatile ones.
There are 4 main prevailing processes for ethyl acetate production, i.e. Direct Esterification Process, Acetaldehyde Condensation Process, Ethanol Dehydration Process and Acetic Acid-Ethylene Addition Process. Each process has its advantages and its applicable services. Our process is based on reactive-distillation esterification, which is mature, low costing and suitable for those with acetic acid feedstock. Technical Features: Advantages of Our Ethyl Acetate Plant and Process Technology In our reactive distillation process, organic acid catalyst is used; its advantages cover the followings: â?¢ Low ethanol consumption â?¢ Low catalyst dosage â?¢ High catalysis activity â?¢ Low equipment corrosion â?¢ Less side reactions â?¢ Higher product purity â?¢ Simple post-treatment operations

Iso-Butyl Acetate Plant Proprietary Technology and Plants Technology Introduction: There are two prevailing processes for iso-butyl acetate (IBA) production, i.e. iso-butanol-acetic acid esterification process and n_butene_acetic acid addition process. Due to its much lower production cost, new IBA plants usually use the Addition Process, which is the very technology SL TECH provides. It consists of four units, feedstock purification unit, esterification unit, product separation unit and acetic acid recovery unit. Compared to the Esterification Process, the Addition Process for IBA production has advantages such as shorter process flow, less equipment and lower production cost (50-60% of Esterification Process); lower energy consumption (only 5% of Esterification Process); easy operation, lower maintenance cost and lower operation cost; harmless and poisonless solid acid catalyst, less pollution, less equipment corrosion. Technical Features: 1. Fixed Bed tubular Reactor To ensure the separation effect in the reactor, a disc distributor is arranged at the feedstock inlet; to strengthen the heat exchange effect and better control the temperature in the catalyst bed, baffles are designed in the reactor shell side; to reduce the energy consumption, two pre-heating stages are designed, the first stage is the plate heat exchanger while the second stage is the tubular heat exchanger. 2. Modified Cation Exchange Resin Catalyst The catalyst is high temperature resistant strong acid resin modified by metal chloride to prolongitself service life. Also after the modification, the conversion yield as weel as the selectivity will be increased at some extent.
