    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separating trioxane from a mixture containing formaldehyde, trioxane and water. According to said method: the mixture (1) is distilled in a first distillation stage (7) at a pressure of between 0.1 and 2 bar to obtain a stream (8) containing formaldehyde and a stream (9) containing predominantly trioxane, in addition to water and formaldehyde; the stream (9) is mixed with a recycling stream (19) containin g predominantly trioxane, in addition to water and formaldehyde to form a stre am (10) containing predominantly trioxane, in addition to water and formaldehyd e; the stream (10) is then distilled in a second distillation stage (14) at a pressure of between 0.2 and 10 bar, optionally after the separation of low- boilers from the stream (9) or (10) in an additional distillation stage (11) . The pressure in the second distillation stage (14) is at least 0.1 bar highe r than the pressure in the first distillation stage (7). Said distillation produces a stream (15) consisting of trioxane and a stream (16) containing predominantly trioxane, in addition to water and formaldehyde. The stream (1 6) is then distilled in a third distillation stage (17) at a pressure of betwee n 0.1 and 4 bar, to obtain a stream (18) containing predominantly water, in addition to formaldehyde and the recycling stream (19) containing predominantly trioxane, in addition to water and formaldehyde. The resultant stream (18) is optionally distilled in a fourth distillation stage (20), to obtain a stream (21) containing predominantly water and a stream (22) containing predominantly formaldehyde.

    Abstract: A process for the distillative recovery of high purity monoethylene glycol from the hydrolysis, product of ethylene oxide by pressure dewatering, preferably in a battery, vacuum dewatering and subsequent purifying distillation, wherein during the vacuum dewatering an aqueous stream is withdrawn which contains-monoethylene glycol in a concentration below 1% by weight, preferably below 0.1% by weight, medium boilers and low boilers. The withdrawn aqueous stream is, optionally after further workup, removed from the system.

    Abstract: A process for the distillative recovery of high purity monoethylene glycol from the hydrolysis product of ethylene oxide by pressure dewatering, vacuum dewatering and subsequent purifying distillation, which includes the pressure dewatering columns or at least the first pressure dewatering column of the battery (2, 3, 4) having a stripping section with at least one separating stage, preferably with from 2 to 10 separating stages, particularly preferably with from 3 to 6 stages, and a portion of the overhead stream of the pressure dewatering column(s) (2, 3, 4) having a stripping section being removed from the system.

    Abstract: A method for reacting a solution containing a mixture of at least two chemicals in chemical equilibrium with other chemical(s) involves: (a) separating the solution into at least two fractions, enriched in the various compounds relative to the equilibrium concentrations; and (b) reacting one fraction with the other reactant(s) before equilibrium is completely restored. A method for reacting a solution containing a mixture of at least two chemicals in chemical equilibrium with other chemical(s) involves: (1) separating the solution into at least two fractions, enriched in the various compounds relative to the equilibrium concentrations; and (2) reacting one fraction with the other reactant(s) before equilibrium is completely restored. Excluded is the reaction of a formaldehyde solution, containing polyoxymethylene glycols and optionally monomeric formaldehyde and/or methylene glycol, with aniline in presence of an acid catalyst.
