摘要 |
The invention relates to a process for producing trioxane and at least one comonomer for producing (co)polymers on a trioxane basis, in which, in a first step, formaldehyde and at least one comonomer starting material are reacted in aqueous solution to form trioxane and comonomer, wherein a reaction mixture A1 containing trioxane, comonomer, formaldehyde, water and if appropriate comonomer starting material is obtained. In a second step, the reaction mixture A1 is distilled in a first distillation stage at a first pressure, wherein a trioxane-and comonomer-enriched stream B1 and an essentially water-, formaldehyde-and if appropriate comonomer starting material-containing stream B2 are obtained. In a third step, the stream B1 is distilled in a second distillation stage at a pressure which is above the pressure of the first distillation stage, wherein a trioxane-, comonomer-and water-containing stream C1 and a product stream C2 essentially consisting of comonomer and trioxane are obtained. |
