Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for recovery of methacrolein and methanol from methacrolein dimethylacetal, a reaction product from preparation of methyl methacrylate.
- MMA methyl methacrylate
- MDA methacrolein dimethyl acetal
- MA key intermediate methacrolein
- mis is done by hydrolyzing MDA in the presence of a mineral acid, which is undesirable due to possible corrosion and the increased process complexity due to neutralization, catalyst disposal, and wastewater treatment requirements.
- Hydrolysis of acetals in the presence of ion exchange resins having sulfonic acid functionality is known, see, e.g., Coppola, G. M. Synthesis 1984,
- the present invention is directed to a process for recovering methacrolein and methanol from methacrolein dimethyl acetal; said method comprising contacting a mixture comprising methyl methacrylate and methacrolein dimethyl acetal with a strong acid ion exchange resin in the presence of water; wherein said mixture comprises no more than 0.2 wt% sodium methacrylate.
- the Figure is a schematic of an integrated process for producing methyl
- a ''strong acid ion exchange resin is an ion exchange resin having sulfonic acid functionality.
- the ion exchange resin is in the form of crosslinked polystyrene beads.
- the MDA is generated in a process which comprises treating
- oxidative esterification reactor OER
- the reaction typically produces MMA and MDA, along with methacrylic acid and unreacted methanol.
- the reaction products are fed to a methanol recovery distillation column which provides an overhead stream rich in methanol and methacrolein; preferably mis stream is recycled back to the OER.
- the bottoms stream from the methanol recovery distillation column comprises MMA, MDA, methacrylic acid, salts and water.
- MDA is hydrolyzed in a medium comprising MMA, MDA, methacrylic acid and water.
- the strong acid ion exchange resin is a macroreticular resin.
- the resin is in the form of beads having a harmonic mean size from 100 to 1200 microns; preferably at least 300 microns, preferably at least 400 microns, preferably at least 500 microns; preferably no more than 1100 microns, preferably no more than 1000 microns, preferably no more than 900 microns, preferably no more man 800 microns.
- the resin has an average pore diameter from 20 to 600 A; preferably at least 50 A, preferably at least 100 A, preferably at least 200 A; preferably no more than 500 A.
- the strong acid ion exchange resin is selected from the group consisting of AMBERLYST-15 resin, AMBERLYST 36, DOWEX DR-2030, DOWEX HCR-S, DOWEX HCR-W2, DOWEX HGR and DOWEX HGR-W2, DOWEX M-3, DOWEX G-26 and DOWEX 50WX series of resins.
- the strong acid ion exchange resin is contained in a fluid or fixed bed in a continuous reactor.
- Water is present when the strong acid ion exchange resin is contacted with MDA and MMA.
- the source of the water is the process stream comprising MMA and MDA, water which is added to the MDA and MMA, the strong acid ion exchange resin, or a combination thereof.
- At least a portion of salts generated as byproducts is removed prior to contacting the OER reaction mixture with the strong acid ion exchange resin, preferably at least 50 wt% of the salts, preferably at least 75 wt%, preferably at least 90 wt%, preferably at least 95 wt%, preferably substantially all of the salts.
- the concentration of sodium methacrylate in mixture comprising methyl methacrylate and methacrolein dimethyl acetal is no greater than 0.15 wt%, preferably no greater than 0.1 wt%, preferably no greater than 0.05 wt%, preferably no greater than 0.02 wt%.
- the present invention is further directed to an integrated process for production of methyl methacrylate.
- MDA may be hydrolyzed by separating the bottoms stream from a methanol recovery distillation column; said stream comprising MMA, MDA, methacrylic acid, salts and water; and performing the hydrolysis in the organic phase. It may be necessary to add water to the organic phase to ensure that there is sufficient water for the MDA hydrolysis; these amounts may be determined easily from the composition of the organic phase.
- the product of the MDA hydrolysis reactor is phase separated and the organic phase passes through one or more distillation columns to produce MMA product and light and/or heavy byproducts.
- the Figure depicts an integrated process in which MDA hydrolysis occurs after phase separation of the bottoms stream from a methanol recovery column.
- Feed stream 1 enters OER 2 which produces product stream 3 which then passes into distillation column 4.
- the overhead stream 5 from column 4 which comprises methanol and methacrolein, is recycled to the OER, while bottoms stream 6 is sent to phase separator 7.
- Organic phase 9 is sent to acetal hydrolysis reactor 11 along with stream 10 comprising water, while aqueous phase 8 comprising water and salts is removed.
- Product 12 from reactor 11 goes into phase separator 13, with crude MMA product stream 15 passing into further purification while aqueous layer 14 is removed. Further purification of stream 15 by conventional distillation techniques provides methacrolein for recycle along with purified MMA.
- Phosphoric acid hydrolysis kinetics was much slower compared to all other acids even at high 5% phosphoric acid levels.
- pTSA was used as the monohydrate.
- a 2 wt% pTSA solution was used. The reaction rates for MSA and pTSA were similar, each reaching equilibrium within ⁇ 30 minutes.
- MAA Methacrylic Acid
- MMA process impurity methacrylic acid was screened for hydrolysis catalyst activity.
- MAA is present in the Methanol Recovery Column, but typically only at very low levels.
- an MDA hydrolysis reaction was carried out using 4% MAA.
- MAA catalyzed MDA hydrolysis albeit at an almost two-fold slower rate compared to the other acids studied here.
- AMBERL YST- 15 (dry) IER resin was used for this example. Based on Amberlyst-15 > 4.7 eq/kg, the IER sulfonic acid content used here was about four times that in 2% pTSA experiments. The rate of Amberlyst-15 catalyzed acetal hydrolysis at both the 5 and 30- minute intervals were similar to those using 1 % sulfuric acid. Equilibrium was reached within 30 min. EFFECT OF SALTS
