- an apparatus as shown in FIG. 4 that is, an apparatus in which the quench tower 101 and the (meth) acrylic acid absorption tower 102 are integrated is used.
- the (meth) acrylic acid absorption tower 102 was introduced to the bottom of an absorption tower (hereinafter, referred to as an acrylic acid absorption tower) having seven theoretical stages integrated therein.
- the side flow branch of the acrylic acid absorption tower was made in the fifth stage ('Side Cut A' portion), and the cooling energy was input through the cooling coil in the fourth and sixth stages.
- the flow obtained to the bottom of the acrylic acid absorption tower is about 102 ° C., 1.19 bar,
- the process water (PW) was added to the upper portion of the acetic acid absorption tower 103 at about 500 kg / h to further absorb acrylic acid and acetic acid, and accordingly the lower flow of the acetic acid absorption tower 103 is the acrylic acid absorption tower Introduced into the top of the
- the stream recycled to the semi-unggi (not shown) for the gas phase oxidation reaction through the acetic acid absorption tower (103) is the flow of acrylic acid and acetic acid removed, the water content of 13.4% by weight and the rest non-uniformity Gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxygen, unreacted propylene and unbanung propane, etc.).
- Acrylic acid and about 0.2% by weight, of acetic acid was about 0.1 0/0, about 0.2% by weight of an arc rain, moisture of 13.7% by weight, with the remaining biung-condensable gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxygen, US banung propylene and US banung propane, etc. ).
- the operation of the high boiling point separation tower 108 which is an essential process after distillation of acrylic acid in the existing process as shown in FIG. 1 or 2, is based on the case of producing about 1.24 Gcal / h (about 60,000 tons of acrylic acid per year). ) there is an additional energy is required, the process according to the invention, it was confirmed that to reduce the energy cost of an equivalent.
- quench tower 102 (meth) acrylic acid absorption tower
