Assignee:
Eastman Chemical Company - Kingsport TN
International Classification:
C07C045/72
US Classification:
568345, 568350, 568390, 568396
Abstract:
Processes for producing higher molecular weight ketones are disclosed that include the steps of feeding an aldol catalyst solution, a lower molecular weight aldehyde, and a lower molecular weight ketone, through a reactor provided with a solid hydrogenation catalyst and hydrogen gas; recovering a liquid reactor effluent containing the higher molecular weight ketone as a reaction product; and recycling a portion of the recovered liquid reactor effluent back through the reactor.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a process to produce a purified carboxylic acid slurry. The process comprises removing impurities from a crystallized product in a solid liquid displacement zone to form the purified carboxylic acid slurry. The purified carboxylic acid slurry is further cooled in a cooling zone and subsequently filtered and dried in a filtration and drying zone. The process produces purified carboxylic acid product having good color and low impurity levels without the use of purification steps like hydrogenation or filtrate purge.

Two Stage Oxidation Process For The Production Of Aromatic Dicarboxylic Acids

US Patent:
7485747, Feb 3, 2009
Filed:
May 28, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/156312
Inventors:
Ronald Buford Sheppard - Kingsport TN, US
Brent Alan Tennant - Kingsport TN, US
Assignee:
Eastman Chemical Company - Kingsport TN
International Classification:
C07C 51/16
C07C 51/42
US Classification:
562487, 562416
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for producing a benzenedicarrboxylic acid such as terephthalic acid wherein a dialkyl benzene compound and acetic acid having catalyst components dissolved therein are fed to a first reaction zone wherein the dialkyl benzene compound is oxidized with molecular oxygen to provide a first oxidation zone product comprising a benzenedicarboxylic acid containing minor amounts of mono-carboxylic acid by-products such as carboxybenzaldehyde and toluic acid. The first oxidation zone product comprising a slurry of a benzenedicarboxylic acid containing minor amounts of mono-carboxylic acid by-products is fed to a second oxidation reaction zone that is operated under more severe conditions of temperature and pressure. The rate of the feed of a molecular oxygen containing gas to the second oxidation zone is about 3% or less of the the rate of the feed of the molecular oxygen containing gas to the first oxidation zone. The benzenedicarboxylic acid product obtained contains a total concentration of carboxybenzaldehyde and toluic acid of about 150 ppmw or less.

Mar 8, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/075009
Inventors:
Gino Georges Lavoie - Kingsport TN, US
Robert Thomas Hembre - Johnson City TN, US
Joseph Nathaniel Bays - Kingsport TN, US
Daniel Burts Compton - Kingsport TN, US
Brent Alan Tennant - Kingsport TN, US
Bryan Wayne Davenport - Columbia SC, US

International Classification:
C07C 51/16
C07C 63/00
US Classification:
562413, 562480
Abstract:
Processes for producing aromatic dicarboxylic acids are disclosed, the processes including a step of combining in a reaction medium a dialkyl aromatic, a solvent comprising water and a saturated organic acid having from 2-4 carbon atoms, and an oxygen-containing gas, at a temperature from about 125 C. to about 155 C. , in the presence of a catalyst composition comprising cobalt, manganese, zirconium, and bromine, wherein the weight ratio of cobalt to manganese in the reaction mixture is from about 10 to about 400. The processes provide improved conversion, while reducing the formation of carbon oxides and other by-products.
