摘要：
Methylal is an important raw material used for the production of chemical intermediates, solvents, paints and fuel additives, etc. At present, reactive distillation technology is the main method for preparing methylal from methanol and formaldehyde. In this work, the reactive distillation with a dividing-wall column for producing methylal was proposed and simulated. The results show that the preparation of methylal by such a process can avoid the back mixing effect of the middle component in the column and reduce the total cost by 8.09% annually, then significantly improve the economics of the process. © All Right Reserved.
