PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ISOCYANATES, PREFERABLY DIISOCYANATES AND POLYISOCYANATES WITH SOLVENT RECIRCULATION

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for the production of isocyanates, preferably diisocyanates and polyisocyanates of the diphenylmethane series (MDI), by reacting an amine with phosgene in the liquid phase or in the gas phase to form the corresponding isocyanates, subsequent removal of the solvent in at least two steps to obtain at least two solvent streams, individual treatment of the at least two solvent streams, and re-circulation of at least a portion of the solvent streams.
