Process for producing (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid
View Patent ↗An object of the invention is to provide a production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid which can continue an operation without causing a decomposition reaction of acrolein or the like. According to the invention, provided is a production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid, in which (meth)acrolein or (meth) acrylic acid is obtained by performing a catalytic gas phase oxidation on propylene, propane or isobutylene by using oxygen by means of a heat-exchange type multi-tubular reactor, having a tube bundle portion in which a multiple of reaction tubes each filled with a catalyst are aligned in parallel to one another and a tube plate which is adjacent to a downstream side of the tube bundle portion of the reaction tubes and forms a lead-out portion for a reaction gas, in which the tube bundle portion of the reaction tubes has a hollow-columnar constitution as a whole, and which is characterized in that a rectifier is provided on a tube plate.
1. A production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid, in which (meth)acrolein or (meth) acrylic acid is obtained by performing a catalytic gas phase oxidation reaction on propylene, propane or isobutylene by using a molecular oxygen by means of a heat-exchange type multi-tubular reactor, comprising a tube bundle portion in which a multiple of reaction tubes each filled with a catalyst are aligned in parallel to one another and a tube plate which is adjacent to a downstream side of the tube bundle portion of the reaction tubes and forms a lead-out portion for a reaction gas, in which the tube bundle portion of the reaction tubes has a hollow columnar constitution as a whole, being characterized in that a rectifier is provided on a tube plate.
2. The production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid as claimed in claim 1 , being characterized in that the rectifier is provided in a central portion of the tube plate.
3. The production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid as claimed in claim 1 , being characterized in that the rectifier is provided in a peripheral portion of the tube plate.
4. The production method for (meth)acrolein or (meth)acrylic acid as claimed in claim 1 , being characterized in that the rectifier is provided in each of a central portion and a peripheral portion of the tube plate.
