  2. Contents • Acetic Acid Uses • Acetic Acid Production • Acetic Acid Separation methods • Conclusion • References

  3. Acetic Acid Uses • In vinyl acetate monomer production • In acetic anhydride production • As solvent in production of terphetalic acid • As recrystalization solvent • In Silage • In production of various acetates such as: • Sodium acetate • Copper acetate • Aluminum acetate • Palladium acetate 2

  4. Acetic Acid Production • Chemical processes for acetic acid production: • Reaction of methanol with carbon monoxide • Reaction of acetylene with water followed by air oxidation • Fermentation of ethanol • Butane oxidation 3

  5. Other chemical processes which produce acetic acid • as a by-product: • Manufacture of cellulose esters • Reactions involving acetic anhydride • Synthesis of glyoxal from acetaldehyde and nitric acid • Wood distillate 4

  6. Problem • Separating acetic acid from water 5

  7. Separation Methods • Separation Involving Phase Changes: • Simple Distillation • Azeotropic Distillation • Extractive Distillation • Reactive Distillation • Separation involving membranes: • Pervaporation • Evapomeation • Temperature Difference Evapomeation • Electrodialysis • Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis

  8. Simple Distillation • Physical separation process based on differences in volatilities 7

  9. Advantage • Simple and easy to operate • Disadvantage • Large energy consumption 8

  10. Azeotropic Distillation • Distillation in the presence of entrainer 9

  11. Desirable properties for an azeotropic entrainer : • Heterogeneous azeotrope • Commercially available and inexpensive • Nontoxic • Chemically Stable • Noncorrosive • Low heat of vaporization The best entrainer is: Alkyl Acetate 10

  12. Effective parameters for alkyl acetate selection • Azeotropic temperature • Azeotropic composition • Aqueous phase composition and entrainer pricing 11

  13. Advantage Improving the economics of the separation • Disadvantage Requiring large amount of entrainer 12

  14. Extractive Distillation • Distillation in the presence of solvent 13

  15. Desirable properties for solvent: • Nonvolatile • High boiling point • Make large difference in volatility between components • Miscible with mixture and doesn´t form azeotropic mixture • Commercially available and inexpensive • Noncorrosive • Physically and chemically stable 14

  16. The best solvent is: • Trialkyl Amine • Advantage Relatively little energy consumption • Disadvantage Need additional heat requirement on the column Some what larger plates 15

  17. Reactive Distillation • Chemical separation method which combines simultaneous chemical reaction and multicomponent distillation in the same vessel 16

  18. Mechanism of reaction: • First Step: Second Step: Third Step: 17

  19. Effect of various parameters on the acid conversion • Total feed flow rate Optimum value:192 mL/h • Mole ratio 18

  20. Reflux configuration • Feed position 19

  21. Pervaporation (PV) • separation of liquid mixtures by partial vaporization through membrane 20

  22. Used membrane • Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) • Cross-linked polybutadiene • Silicalite-1 as adsorbent filler in PDMS membrane • Carbon molecular sieve in PDMS membrane • Silicalite-1(pure silica) • Ge-ZSM-5 • Sn-ZSM-5 20

  23. Effective parameters on separation performance • Si/Sn • Temperature • Acid concentration • Disadvantage Shrinking and swelling of the membrane 21

  24. Evapomeation(EV) • Vaporization of feed solution then permeation through polymeric membrane 22

  25. Effective parameters on separation performance • Temperature • Acid concentration • Disadvantage membrane condensation in high acid concentration 23

  26. Temperature Difference Evapomeation (TDEV) • Decreasingtemperature in the membranesurroundingthaninthe feed solution 24

  27. Electrodialysis (ED) • Ion transportation from one solution through ion- exchange membranes to another solution under the influence of an electric potential difference 25

  28. Application Concentrating acetic acid from water containing %1(w/w) acid to %10(w/w) 26

  29. Importance Make full use of our limited resources Protect our environment • DisadvantageConcentration efficiency up to %10 Low electric current efficiency (around %20) 27

  30. Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis (BME) 28

  31. Application Concentrating acetic acid from water containing %0.2(w/w) acid to %14(w/w) • Disadvantage Low electric current efficiency (around %40) 29

  32. Conclusion For high purity (%99.9) acetic acidAzeotropic Distillation For reasonably pure acetic acid Extractive Distillation For ester production Reactive Distillation For separation from solution containing % (5-15) acid PV 30
