Method for collecting (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid and collecting device for the same
View Patent ↗(Meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid is collected by bringing a reaction gas ( 1 ) containing (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid obtained through a vapor-phase catalytic oxidation reaction into contact with an aqueous solution as a collecting solvent in a collecting tower main body ( 2 ). The reaction gas ( 1 ) is supplied to the collecting tower main body ( 2 ) from two nozzles ( 2 c ) facing each other, and is caused to collide in the collecting tower main body ( 2 ). According to the present invention, (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid can be efficiently collected from a gas containing (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid while preventing polymerization.
1. A collecting device for collecting (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid from a gaseous oxidation mixture by contacting a reaction gas with a solvent, comprising:
a contact portion where the reaction gas is brought into contact with the solvent,
a plurality of reaction gas supply devices for supplying the reaction gas to the contact portion, and
a solvent supply device for supplying the solvent to the contact portion, wherein
the plurality of reaction gas supply devices are provided in directions so as to cause a direct collision of the reaction gas supplied from the respective reaction gas supply devices at one place in the contact portion,
the (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid is contained in the reaction gas, and the reaction gas is obtained through a vapor-phase catalytic oxidation reaction of at least one selected from the group consisting of propane, propylene and isobutylene or (meth)acrolein, and molecular oxygen or a molecular oxygen-containing gas.
2. The collecting device according to claim 1 , wherein the contact portion has a circular cross sectional shape and the plurality of reaction gas supply devices are provided in the same plane to supply the reaction gas toward a center of the contact portion.
3. The collecting device according to claim 1 , wherein the contact portion comprises a collecting tower.
4. The collecting device according to any one of claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein no member which prevents a direct collision of the reaction gas supplied from the plurality of reaction gas supply devices is provided.
5. The collecting device according to claim 1 , wherein the one place in the contact portion is substantially equidistant from the plurality of reaction gas supply devices.
6. The collecting device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of reaction gas supply devices is one selected from the range consisting of 2 to 8.
