Methylacetate Hydrolysis revamped with reactive distillation

Engineering - Examples

A Reactive Distillation column was added downstream to the Hydrolysis Reactor of a European customer.

 Our involvement:

  • Feasibility Study
  • Pilot test specific to the customer's feed
  • Scale-up Study
  • Assistance during the Basic engineering
  • Procurement of column internals including catalyst
  • Supervision of the installation of internals
  • Assistance during commissioning

The existing plant had several columns which were reused without major changes. The reaction conversion process was more than doubled. Therefore the customer now saves 600,000 Euro yearly on operating costs.
