titleOfInvention | Process for producing acetic acid by carbonylation of methanol, adding dimethyl ether to aid in the separation step |
abstract | Disclosed is a process for producing acetic acid, comprising the steps of: (a) reacting carbon monoxide with at least one reactant selected from methanol, methyl acetate, methyl formate, dimethyl ether and mixtures thereof in a reaction medium comprising water, methyl iodide, and a catalyst to produce a reaction product comprising acetic acid; (b) performing a vapor-liquid separation on said reaction product to provide a volatile phase comprising acetic acid, water, and methyl iodide and a less volatile phase comprising said catalyst; (c) distilling said volatile phase to produce a purified acetic acid product and a first overhead comprising water, methyl acetate, and methyl iodide; (d) phase separating said first overhead to provide a first liquid phase comprising water and a second liquid phase comprising methyl iodide; and (e) adding dimethyl ether to the process in an amount effective to enhance separation of the first overhead to form the first and second liquid phases. Also disclosed is a method for phase separating a mixture comprising acetic acid, methyl acetate, methyl iodide, and water to provide a first liquid phase comprising acetic acid, water and methyl acetate and a second liquid phase comprising methyl iodide, wherein dimethyl ether is added to the mixture to facilitate the separation. |
