METHOD FOR HYDROGENATING DINITRILES

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for the hydrogenation of aliphatic dinitriles at least partly into corresponding aminonitriles. More specifically, the invention consists of a continuous process for the hydrogenation of dinitrile, at least partly into corresponding aminonitrile, in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst which is not dissolved in the reaction medium, characterized in that it is carried out in apparatus comprising means for the continuous separation of the hydrogenate and of the catalyst in a zone in which the gas-liquid transfer is limited or zero, the said separation and the recycling of the catalyst being carried out in a period of time less than or equal to 30 minutes.
