Method for storing (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters
View Patent ↗There is provided a method for storing (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters in a storage tank for receiving or discharging the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters, which is capable of storing the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters for a long period of time. According to the method of the present invention, upon storing the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters in the storage tank for receiving or discharging the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters, a concentration of suspended particulate matters contained in a gas phase portion of the storage tank is controlled to not more than 0.01 mg/m 3 .
1. A method for storing (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters in a storage tank for receiving or discharging the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters, wherein a concentration of suspended particulate matters contained in a gas phase portion of the storage tank is controlled to not more than 0.01 mg/m 3 .
2. A method according to claim 1 , wherein a gas containing the suspended particulate matters at a concentration of not more than 0.01 mg/m 3 is supplied to the storage tank for receiving or discharging the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters.
3. A method according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic esters are acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate or 2-ethylhexyl acrylate.
