INTEGRATED PLANT FOR PRODUCING 2-ETHYL-HEXANOL AND METHACRYLIC ACID

摘要

An integrated facility is disclosed for simultaneous production of butanal and methacrylic acid products where the facility utilizes a mixed methacrolein and isobutanal stream to make methacrylic acid. The facility is also designed to utilize downstream n-butanal products such as n-butanol and/or 2-ethyl-hexanol to make butyl-methacrylates and 2-ethyl-hexyl-methacrylate. A method is also disclosed which integrates the production of butanal derived products and methacrylic acid derived products.
