    Abstract: A process for preparing an aromatic polyamine mixture including 4,4′-methylenedi(phenylamine) and higher homologues of MDA is provided. The process includes steps of (i) reaction of aniline with formaldehyde by means of an acid catalyst to form a crude product mixture (I), (ii) neutralization of the crude product mixture (I) and removal of the salts formed; (iii) isolation of aniline; (iv) distillation of the resulting crude product mixture so as to separate off (iv-1) a mixture (II) of MDA isomers (II-1) containing from 8 to 20% by weight of 4,4′-methylenedi(phenylamine) and not more than 0.3% by weight of secondary components (II-2) and (iv-2) a low boiler mixture of at least 55% by weight of secondary components (II-2) and MDA isomers (II-1); and (v) recirculation of the mixture (II).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing phosgene by conversion of chlorine and CO over an activated carbon catalyst, wherein the activated carbon catalyst is dried by reducing the water content, where the drying comprises the following steps:



    a) contacting the catalyst with an inert gas stream
    b) determining the residual moisture content of the catalyst by determining the moisture content in the offgas stream
    c) ending the drying process after attainment of the desired moisture content in the offgas stream by switching from the inert gas to the reaction gases and optionally
    d) heating up the catalyst bed and/or the inert gas during the drying process.

    Abstract: A process of separating phosgene and hydrogen chloride, comprises: conveying a mixed stream containing hydrogen chloride and phosgene into a distillation column; withdrawing from the distillation column a bottom stream containing phosgene; withdrawing a top stream containing hydrogen chloride; compressing at least a portion of the top stream and at least partially condensing the compressed top stream to form a liquid stream, decompressing at least a portion of the liquid stream to form a cooled liquid stream and a cooled gas stream; and recycling the cooled liquid stream to the top of the distillation column as a reflux; the process additionally comprising temporarily introducing an absorbing solvent into the distillation column, in particular during starting-up and/or shutting-down of the process. The process allows for safe operation even when hydrogen chloride production only gradually begins or decreases, without the necessity of storing hydrogen chloride.
