Process For Removing Methanol From Aqueous Formaldehyde
US Patent:
4385188, May 24, 1983
Filed:
Oct 9, 1981
Appl. No.:
6/309960
Inventors:
Theodore V. Ferris - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Assignee:
Monsanto Company - St. Louis MO
International Classification:
C07C 47058
US Classification:
568493
Abstract:
Aqueous formaldehyde solutions containing minor amounts of methanol are substantially stripped of methanol by a low energy process at relatively low temperature by means of recycled inert gas in a stripping column comprising at least about 1. 5 theoretical transfer units for stripping methanol.
Manufacture Of Aqueous Formaldehyde
US Patent:
4383123, May 10, 1983
Filed:
Oct 8, 1981
Appl. No.:
6/309623
Inventors:
Theodore V. Ferris - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Assignee:
Monsanto Company - St. Louis MO
International Classification:
C07C 47052
US Classification:
568473
Abstract:
Formaldehyde manufacture by oxidative-dehydrogenation of methanol over a silver or copper catalyst. Aqueous formaldehyde solution is obtained from the reaction and is substantially stripped of methanol by a low energy process at relatively low temperature by means of recycled off-gas in a stripping column comprising at least about 1. 5 theoretical transfer units for stripping methanol.
Manufacture Of Aqueous Formaldehyde

International Classification:
B01D 316, C07C 47055, C07C 47058
US Classification:
568472
Abstract:
Formaldehyde manufacture by oxidative-dehydrogenation of methanol over a silver or copper catalyst. Aqueous formaldehyde solution is obtained from the reaction and is stripped of methanol and water by a low energy process at relatively low temperature by means of recycled inert gas in a stripping column comprising at least about 1. 5 theoretical transfer units for stripping methanol.
Manufacture Of Aqueous Formaldehyde
US Patent:
4454354, Jun 12, 1984
Filed:
Aug 2, 1982
Appl. No.:
6/404210
Inventors:
Theodore V. Ferris - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Richard C. Kmetz - Longmeadow MA
Assignee:
Monsanto Company - St. Louis MO
International Classification:
C07C 4529, C07C 4704
US Classification:
568473
Abstract:
Formaldehyde manufacture by oxidative-dehydrogenation of methanol over a silver or copper catalyst. Aqueous formaldehyde solution is obtained from the reaction and is stripped of a mixture of methanol, formaldehyde and water by a low energy process at relatively low temperature and low reflux in a still comprising at least about 1. 5 theoretical plates, the stripping conditions being selected to allow substantial reduction of the methanol content of the aqueous formaldehyde solution and recycle of the methanol to the reactor.
