    Abstract: Adiponitrile is purified by cooling the liquid or heating the solid so as to produce a suspension of adiponitrile crystals in liquid adiponitrile at a temperature of below 2.0 DEG C., separating the crystals, e.g. on a filter press, vacuum filter, pressure filter or in a centrifuge, washing the crystals, e.g. with pure liquid adiponitrile or with water or an organic liquid, and returning the separated liquid adiponitrile, with or without the wash liquid, to the first or another crystallization zone. The wash liquid may be pure adiponitrile obtained by partly melting the separated solid adiponitrile, e.g. while still in the separation apparatus.

    Abstract: Cyclohexanone is obtained from crude cyclohexanol by evaporating the bulk of the latter in a first vaporization zone at 140-180 DEG C., supplying the liquid residue to a second vaporization zone wherein it is vaporized as far as possible by a suitably correlated adjustment of temperature and pressure, returning the vapours from the second to the first zone (alternatively having condensed the vapours to liquid and returning this to the first zone), the vapours preheated to 250-400 DEG C. being then passed over a dehydrogenation catalyst at a velocity of 50-100 cm./sec., the residence period at the catalyst being 4-12 seconds. The catalyst is a heavy metal of Group Ib, IIb, VIa or VIII or an oxide or carbonate or mixtures thereof; copper supported on pumice or ferric oxide is specified.

    Abstract: A mixture of succinic, glutaric and adipic acids, such as obtained by the oxidation of cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone or cyclohexane is separated by fractional distillation under subatmospheric pressure in the presence of steam. The mixture is introduced from tank 1 into evaporator 2, which is heated to about 200 DEG C. and is maintained at an absolute pressure of 40 to 100 mm. Hg. The mixture then flows down column 4 into a still 5 at 195 DEG to 220 DEG C. into which superheated steam is injected through line 7. The steam laden with acid vapours is conducted from the head of the column into the evaporator, the vapours then passing through line 8 into a condenser 9 and being sprayed therein with an aqueous solution from a receiver 10. Crystals of succinic acid suspended in an aqueous solution are obtained by cooling in a vessel 14, are separated out in a centrifuge 15. The mother liquid is evaporated and the residue is returned to the crude product. The product received in vessel 6 from the still is substantially glutaric and adipic acids. Water is added to convert anhydrides into acids before preheating in 17 and passing the mixture into a column 18. The still 19 of the column is heated to 200 DEG C., a vacuum of 40-50 mm. Hg is maintained at the top of the column, and superheated steam is passed through line 20 into the still. The vapours leaving the head of the column are cooled in a condenser 21 and liquid glutaric acid so formed flows into a receiver 22 while steam with a small amount of succinic acid flows into a condenser 23. A mixture of adipic acid with a small amount of glutaric acid is withdrawn at 27 from the still from which adipic acid may be recovered by crystallization. The columns are provided with packings, baffles, spirals or bubble trays.

    Abstract: A liquid mixture, which contains material of low volatility, is separated into fractions by introducing it through pipe 1 into distillation column 3 the base of which is connected, by pipes 7 and 9, to a tubular evaporator 8; the base of the column and/or the tubular evaporator being also connected to a film-evaporator 12. Non-volatile material is withdrawn from the film-evaporator via pipe 13; and the volatile fraction is removed from the head of the column via dephlegmator 6 and pipe 10. In the embodiment shown, the vapour withdrawn from the film-evaporator via pipe 14 is condensed; and the condensate is introduced via pipe 22 into the column with fresh feed. The film-evaporator may be maintained at low pressure by a vacuum pump connected to pipe 19. The level of the liquid in the base of the column is maintained constant by valve 15. The operation is preferably conducted so that the bottoms product contains 40 to 60% of the low-volatile material. The process is suitable for fractionating the crude products of organic syntheses; and the heat of reaction may be used to preheat in heat-exchanger 2 the feed to the column. There are five examples, which relate to the production of cyclohexanol, dicyclohexylamine, dichlorbutane, adiponitrile, and beta-naphthol.
