Abstract
PURPOSE: To purify methanol, by distilling crude methanol with the first fractionating column having higher column top pressure than the second fractionating column, thereby separating the crude alcohol into three parts comprising the high purity methanol obtained from the top of the column, water discharged from the bottom of the column, and the side stream composed of methanol and water, and separating the side stream into its components by the second fractionating column.
CONSTITUTION: Volatile impurities are removed from impure methanol obtained by methanol synthesis, and the produced crude methanol is fed to the first fractionating column B having higher column top pressure than the second fractionating column C, and separated into three parts comprising the high purity methanol obtained from the top of the column, the bottom stream composed mainly of water, and the side stream composed mainly of methanol and water. The side stream is fed to the second fractionating column C, and separated to the high purity methanol from the column top and a mixture composed mainly or methanol, water, and ethanol obtained from the column bottom. The removal of the volatile impurities from the impure methanol is carried out with a preliminary distillation column A. The vapor of the high purity methanol obtained from the top of the first fractionating column B is utilized for the heating of the second fractionating column and evaporation of the bottom of the prliminary distillation column A.
