    Abstract: The invention concerns the simultaneous preparation of caprolactam and hexamethylene diamine from adipodinitrile, by the following steps: (a) the adipodinitrile is partially hydrogenated, producing a mixture substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile, hexamethylene diamine, ammonia, adipodinitrile and hexamethylene imine (= "the mixture"); (b) the mixture obtained in step (a) is distilled, producing ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue I, in the presence of a compound A which is inert in the distillation conditions, the ammonia not being separated totally; (c) the residue I, substantially containing "the mixture", inert compound A and ammonia, the ammonia content being less than that of the mixture used in step (b), is subjected to a second distillation, producing a mixture of the inert compound A and ammonia, as the forerunnings, and a residue II; (d) the base II, substantially containing "the mixture" and inert compound A, is subjected to distillation in a third column, producing the inert compound A, as the forerunnings, and a residue III; (e) the base III, substantially containing "the mixture" and optionally an inert compound B, is subjected to distillation in a fourth column, producing forerunnings KP1, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine, optionally inert compound B and hexamethylene diamine, and a residue IV; (f) the forerunnings KP1 are subjected in a fifth column to distillation, producing forerunnings KP2, which substantially contain hexamethylene imine and optionally inert compound B, and a residue V, which substantially contains hexamethylene diamine with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, the forerunnings KP2 being fed to the third column or optionally only partially fed to the third column, and the rest being discarded; and (g) the residue IV, substantially containing 6-aminocapronitrile and adipodinitrile, is subjected in a sixth column to distillation, producing 6-aminocapronitrile with a degree of purity of at least 95 %, as forerunnings, and adiponitrile in the residue. The resultant 6-aminocapronitrile is cyclized to form caprolactam.

    Abstract: Caprolactam is prepared by reacting a solution of 6-aminocapronitrile with water in the liquid phase at elevated temperatures by a process in which (a) an aqueous solution of 6-aminocapronitrile in the liquid phase is heated without the addition of a catalyst in a reactor A to give a mixture I consisting essentially of water, caprolactam and a high-boiling fraction (high boiler), then (b) the water is removed from the resulting mixture I to give a mixture II consisting essentially of caprolactam and the high boilers, then (c) the caprolactam and the high boilers from mixture II are separated from one another by distillation, and then either (d1) the high boilers from stage (c) are fed into the reactor A of stage (a) or (d2) the high boilers are heated similarly to stage (a) in a further reactor B and then worked up similarly to stages (b) and (c) to give further caprolactam, or (d3) the high boilers are heated under reduced pressure in the presence of a base in a reactor C and the reacted mixture is worked up by distillation to give caprolactam.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the preparation of caprolactam by heating of 6-aminocapronitrile in the presence of heterogenous catalyst and water under increased pressure where: (a) 6-aminocapronitrile or a mixture containing basically 6-aminocapronitrile and water and low-boiling or high-boiling alcohol are heated in the presence of heterogenous catalyst in reactor (A) for producing mixture (I). Then, (b) mixture (I) is distilled, divided in a fraction from the top of the column, caprolactam and bottom residue as any ammonia in mixture (I) is removed before the distillation, after which (c1) fraction from the top of the column is introduced in the reactor from stage (a). The fraction from the top of the column is usually mixed with alcohol and/or water, and/or 6-aminocapronitrile used in stage (a), before being introduced in reactor (A), or (c2) the fraction from the top of the column is optionally introduced in reactor (B) together with the bottom residue of stage (b). The fraction from the top of the column is optionally mixed with the alcohol and/or water, and/or 6-aminocapronitrile used in stage (a) before being introduced in reactor (B). Finally, analogically to stage (b) by distillation caprolactam is extracted and (d1) the bottom residue of stage (b) is introduced in reactor (A) of stage (a) or (d2) the bottom residue is mixed in a given case with water and optionally - with low-boiling or high-boiling alochol. After that, analogically to stage (a) it is heated in a subsequent reactor (C) to the preparation of a reaction product which is subjected to distillation for the production of caprolactam, or (d3) water is added to the bottom residue heated in reactor (D) without the addition of any catalyst for the production of a reaction product which is distilled for the production of the caprolactam, or (d4) water and base is added to the bottom residue. The residue is heated in reactor (E) until the production of a reaction product which is distilled for the preparation of caprolactam. 7 claims

    Abstract: An improved process for the preparation of caprolactam by heating 6-aminocapronitrile in the presence of a heterogenous catalyst and water under superatmospheric pressure without rapid deactivation of the catalysts used. The process further includes the addition of a low or high boiling alcohol in the heating phase, after which the products are obtained by distillation. The process further includes a method of working up the top and bottom products of the reactors to achieve higher yields.
