APPARATUS AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING EPSILON-CAPROLACTAM

摘要

PURPOSE: An apparatus for producing Epsilon-caprolactam is provided to reduce an amount of unreacted cyclohexanone oxime remained to epsilon-caprolactam of a reaction product and to increase a yield of epsilon-caprolactam. CONSTITUTION: An apparatus for the production of epsilo-caprolactam comprises a fluidized bed reactor having a solid catalyst therein for subjecting cyclohexanone oxime to a rearrangement reaction to obtain a reaction product containing unreacted cyclohexanone oxime and a fixed bed reactor packed with a solid catalyst for subjecting the unreacted cyclohexanone oxime to a rearrangement reaction to obtain epsilon-caprolactam.
