Vinyl acetate is generally prepared commercially by contacting acetic acid and ethylene with molecular oxygen in the presence of a catalyst active for the production of vinyl acetate. Suitably, the catalyst may comprise palladium, an alkali metal acetate promoter and an optional co-promoter (for example, gold or cadmium) on a catalyst support. Acetic acid produced by carbonylation generally requires extensive purification to remove inter alia iodides arising from the catalyst system generally employed because iodides are recognised as potential vinyl acetate catalyst poisoners.

Combinations of processes for producing vinyl acetate are known in the art. Thus, WO 98/05620 discloses a process for the production of vinyl acetate and/or acetic acid which process comprises first contacting ethylene and/or ethane with oxygen to produce a first product stream comprising acetic acid, water and ethylene, contacting in a second reaction zone in the presence or absence of additional ethylene and/or acetic acid the first product stream with oxygen to produce a second product stream comprising vinyl acetate, water, acetic acid and optionally ethylene ; separating the product stream from the second step by distillation into an overhead azeotrope fraction comprising vinyl acetate and water and a base fraction comprising acetic acid; either recovering acetic acid from the base fraction and optionally recycling the azeotrope fraction or recovering vinyl acetate from the azeotrope fraction. The catalysts suggested in WO 98/05620 for the oxidation of ethylene to acetic acid or ethane to acidic acid are catalysts of the formula PdaMbTiPcOx with M being selected from Cd, Au, Zn, TI, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals ; other catalysts for the oxidation of ethane to acetic acid are catalysts of the formula VPaMbOx with M being selected from Co, Cu, Re, Fe, Ni, Nb, Cr, W, U, Ta, Ti, Zr, Zn, Hf, Mn, Pt, Pd, Sn, Sb, Bi, Ce, As, Ag and Au or catalysts for the oxidation of ethane and/or ethylene to form ethylene and/or acetic acid which catalysts comprise the elements A, X and Y, wherein A is ModReeWf and wherein X is Cr, Mn, Nb, Ta, V or W and wherein Y is Bi, Ce, Co, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Ni, P, Pb, Sb, Si, Sn, TI or U.

Other catalysts for the oxidation of ethane to acetic acid and ethylene suggested in WO 98/05620 are those of the formula MoxVyZz with Z being selected from Li, Na, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Cd, Hg, Sc, Y, La, Ce, Al, T), Ti, Zr, Hf, Pb, Nb, Ta, As, Sb, Bi, Cr, W, U, Te, Fe, Co, Ni.

US-A-5,185,308 which is cited in WO 98/05620 describes examples wherein space time yields in the range between 555 and 993 g vinyl acetate per hour per liter catalyst are achieved.

It is an object of the present invention to provide for an integrated process for the production of vinyl acetate from a gaseous feedstock comprising essentially ethane as the only external carbon source of raw material supply, the process exhibiting space/time yields in the range of from 100 to 2000 grams of vinyl acetate per hour per litre of catalyst, preferably 500 to 1500 grams of vinyl acetate per hour per litre of catalyst.

Accordingly the present invention provides an integrated process for the production of vinyl acetate which comprises the steps: (a) contacting in a first reaction zone a gaseous feedstock comprising essentially ethane with a molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a catalyst to produce a first product stream comprising acetic acid and ethylene ; (b) contacting in a second reaction zone the first gaseous product stream with a molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a catalyst to produce a second product stream comprising vinyl acetate; (c) separating the product stream from step (b) and recovering vinyl acetate from said product stream from step (b).

The process according to the invention is based on the findings that a certain class of catalysts is capable of converting ethane to a predetermined mixture of acetic acid and ethylene with a very high selectivity and very high space time yield. Such ethylene/acetic acid mixture can be directly fed into a reactor to form vinyl acetate.

Using ethane instead of ethylene as feedstock has the advantage, that it is available in natural gas. In the process of natural gas work-up, several ethane-containing mixtures are obtained, which are usually simply flared of, but which all can be used as carbon feedstock for performing the process of the present invention. Preferably, a mixture with higher amounts of ethane (high purity ethane with ethane content of 90 %, see PERP-Report"Natural Gas Liquids Extraction", 94/95S4, page 60) can be used for the process described in the present invention.

Of specific advantage in the integrated vinyl acetate process of the present invention is that in principle infrastructures, utilities, and other features can be combined, for example only a single feed gas compressor and off-gas scrubbing system is required whereas separate acetic acid and vinyl acetate processes each require their own feed gas compressor and off-gas scrubbing system. By combining step (a) and (b) of the present invention reduced intermediate storage requirements are needed as compared to two separate processes. All these advantages lead to reduced capital and operating costs.

According to the invention a gaseous feedstock comprising essentially ethane is contacted in a first reaction zone with a molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a catalyst active for the oxidation of ethane to acetic acid and ethylene to produce a first product stream comprising acetic acid and ethylene.

The catalyst active for the oxidation of ethane to acetic acid and ethylene may comprise any suitable catalyst as described in DE-A 197 45 902 which is incorporated herein by reference.

These catalysts are of the formula MoaPdbXcYd wherein X and Y have the following meaning: X is selected from one or more elements of the group consisting of Cr, Mn, Nb, Ta, Ti, V, Te and W; Y is selected from one or more elements of the group consisting of B, Al, Ga, In, Pt, Zn, Cd, Bi, Ce, Co, Rh, Ir, Cu, Ag, Au, Fe, Ru, Os, K, Rb, Cs, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Nb, Zr, Hf, Ni, P, Pb, Sb, Si, Sn, TI and U and wherein a, b, c and are gram atom ratios and denote a = 1 ; b = 0.0001-0.01; preferably 0.0001-0.005 c = 0.4-1; preferably 0.5-0.8 and d = 0.005-1; preferably 0.01-0.3.

Preferred catalysts are those wherein X is V and Y is Nb, Sb and Ca. Pd ratios above the indicated gram atom limit favor the formation of carbon dioxide; Pd ratios below the indicated gram atom limit favor the formation of ethylene. A catalyst specifically preferred for the process according to the invention is Mol. ooPdo. ooo7sVo. 55Nbo. o9Sbo. oiCao. oi.

It is an advantage of the present invention that the ratio of selectivity to acetic acid to selectivity to ethylene which is formed in the first reaction zone can be varied within wide ranges, i. e. from 0 to 95 % each by changing reaction parameters such as reaction temperature, total pressure, feed composition, residence time.

The catalyst active for the oxidation of ethane may be used supported or unsupported. Examples of suitable supports include silica, diatomaceous earth, montmorillonite, alumina, silica alumina, zirconia, titania, silicon carbide, activated carbon, and mixtures thereof. The catalyst active for the oxidation of ethane may be used in the form of a fixed or fluidised bed.

The molecular oxygen-containing gas used in reaction zones may be air or a gas richer or poorer in molecular oxygen than air. A suitable gas may be, for example oxygen diluted with a suitable diluent, for example nitrogen or carbon dioxide.

Preferably, the molecular oxygen-containing gas is fed to the first reaction zone independently from the ethane feedstock.

The ethane feedstock of the process of the present invention may be substantially pure or slightly diluted with other gases like the ones being generated by natural gas separation, i. e. e. g. 90 wt. % (PERP-Report"Natural Gas Liquids Extraction 94/95S4, page 60"), or may be admixtures with one or more of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and low levels of C3/C4 alkenes/alkanes. Catalyst poisons like sulphur should be excluded. Likewise is it advantageous to minimise the amount of acetylene. The amount of inert components is only limited by economics.

Step (a) of the process of the present invention may suitably be carried out by passing ethane, the molecular oxygen-containing gas, steam and (if necessary) additional inerts through the catalyst. The amount of steam may suitably be in the range from 0 to 50 Vol%. The molar ratio of ethane to oxygen may suitably be in the range between 1: 1 and 10: 1, preferably between 2: 1 and 8: 1.

Step (a) of the process of the present invention may suitably be carried out at a temperature from 200 to 500 °C, preferably from 200 to 400 °C.

Step (a) of the process of the present invention may suitably be carried out at atmospheric or superatmospheric pressure, for example in the range from 1 to 100 bar, preferably from 1 to 50 bar.

Typically, ethane conversions in the range of 10 to 100 %, especially 10 to 40 %, may be achieved in step (a) of the process of the present invention, depending on the reactor concept of step (a) which can also be a reactor cascade with interstitial oxygen feed.

Typically, oxygen conversions in the range 90 to 100 % may be achieved in step (a) of the process of the present invention.

In step (a) of the process of the present invention, the catalyst suitably has a productivity space time yield (STY) in the range 100 to 2000 grams of acetic acid/ethylene per hour per litre of catalyst, preferably in the range 100 to 1500 grams of acetic acid/ethylene per hour per litre of catalyst.

The ethylene/acetic acid ratio which is necessary for feeding the vinyl acetate reactor (step (b) of the present invention) may be suitably be adjusted by changing the reaction parameters of step (a), e. g. reaction temperature, total pressure, gaseous hourly space velocity, partial pressures of each reactant, and especially by varying the steam partial pressure in the feed of step (a).

Step (a) of the present invention can be carried out in fixed bed as well as in fluidised bed reactor.

The gaseous product stream from step (a) comprises acetic acid and ethylene in a predetermined ratio and water, and may contain ethane, oxygen, nitrogen and the by-products, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Usually, no or very small amounts (< 100 ppm) of carbon monoxide are produced during step (a). In case that carbon monoxide is produced in higher amounts up to 5 %, it may if necessary be removed after step (a), e. g. by adsorption or by combustion to carbon dioxide by a molecular oxygen-containing gas. Ethylene is present in the gaseous product stream of step (a) preferably in an amount as is required for direct conversion to vinyl acetate.

The gaseous product from step (a) may be fed directly to the second reaction zone of step (b) together with optionally additional molecular oxygen-containing gas, optionally additional ethylene and optionally additional acetic acid, which can preferably be taken from step (c), the vinyl acetate separation.

The catalyst active for the production of vinyl acetate which is used in step (b) of the process of the present invention may comprise any suitable catalyst known in the art, for example, as described in EP-A 330 853, GB 1 559 540, US 5,185,308, and WO 99/08791.

WO 99/08791 describes a method for producing catalysts containing metal nano-particles on a porous support, especially for gas phase oxidation of ethylene and acetic acid to form vinyl acetate. The invention relates to a method for producing a catalyst containing one or several metals from the group of metals comprising the sub-groups lb and Vlilb of the periodic table on porous support particles, characterised by a first step in which one or several precursors from the group of compounds of metals from sub-groups lb and Vlllb of the periodic table is or are applied to a porous support, and a second step in which the porous, preferably nanoporous support to which at least one precursor has been applied is treated with at least one reduction agent, to obtain the metal nanoparticles produced in situ in the pores of said support.

Typically, step (b) of the process of the present invention is carried out heterogeneously with the reactants being present in the gas phase.

The ethylene reactant used in step (b) of the process of the present invention is produced in step (a) of the process.

The molecular oxygen-containing gas used in step (b) of the process of the present invention may comprise unreacted molecular oxygen-containing gas from step (a) and/or additional molecular oxygen-containing gas. Preferably, at least some of the molecular oxygen-containing gas is fed independently to the second reaction zone from the acetic acid and ethylene reactants.

Step (b) of the process of the present invention may suitably be carried out at a temperature in the range from 140 to 220 °C.

Step (b) of the process of the present invention may suitably be carried out at a pressure in the range from 1 to 100 bar.

Step (b) can be carried out in any suitable reactor design capable of removing the heat of reaction in an appropriate way; preferred technical solutions are fixed or fluidised bed reactors.

Acetic acid conversions in the range 5 to 50% may be achieved in step (b) of the process of the present invention.

Oxygen conversions in the range 20 to 100 % may be achieved in step (b) of the present invention.

In step (b) of the process of the present invention, the catalyst suitably has a productivity (STY) in the range 100 to 2000 grams of vinyl acetate per hour per litre of catalyst, but >10000 grams of vinyl acetate per hour per litre of catalyst is also suitable.

The second product stream from step (b) of the process comprises vinyl acetate and water and optionally also unreacted acetic acid, ethylene, ethane, nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and possibly present traces of other byproducts.

Intermediate between step (b) and step (c) of the process of the invention it is preferred to remove ethylene, and ethane, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, if any, from the second product stream, suitably as an overhead gaseous fraction from a scrubbing column, in which a liquid fraction comprising vinyl acetate, water and acetic acid is removed from the base.

The second product stream from step (b) comprising vinyl acetate, water and acetic acid, with or without the intermediate scrubbing step, is separated in step (c) by distillation into an overhead azeotrope fraction comprising vinyl acetate and water and a base fraction comprising acetic acid.

Vinyl acetate is recovered from the azeotrope fraction separated in step (c), suitably for example by decantation. The recovered vinyl acetate may, if desired, be further purified in known manner. The base fraction comprising acetic acid separated in step (c) is preferably recycled, with or preferably without further purification, to step (b) of the process.

The overall Space Time Yield (STY) of vinyl acetate (referred to ethane) produced in the process is in the range of 100 to 5000, preferably in the range of 500 to 1500 grams of vinyl acetate per hour per litre of catalyst.

The overall yield may be adjusted in a number of ways including independently adjusting the reactant ratios and/or reaction conditions of step (a) and/or step (b) of the process, for example by independently adjusting the oxygen concentration (s) and/or the reaction temperatures and pressures.

The process of the present invention will now be illustrated by example with reference to Figure 1 which represents in schematic form apparatus for use in the process of the present invention.

The apparatus comprises a first reaction zone (1), a second reaction zone (2) and a scrubber column (3).

In use, a molecular oxygen-containing gas, optionally steam and a gaseous feedstock comprising essentially ethane (4) are fed to the first reaction zone (1) which contains a catalyst active for the oxidation of ethane to form acetic acid and ethylene. Depending on the scale of the process, the first reaction zone (1) may comprise either a single reactor or several reactors in parallel or series. The first reaction zone may also comprise a reactor cascade, wherein between the individual reactors additional molecular oxygen-containing gas can be fed. A first gaseous product stream comprising acetic acid, ethylene, unreacted feedstock, optionally unconsumed molecular oxygen-containing gas and water together with carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and inerts is withdrawn from the first reaction zone (1) and is fed to the second reaction zone (2). Additional molecular oxygen-containing gas (5) and/or ethylene (6) may be mixed with the product stream withdrawn from the first reaction zone (1). In the second reaction zone (2) acetic acid and ethylene are contacted with molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of a catalyst active for the production of vinyl acetate. Depending on the scale of the process, the second reaction zone (2) may comprise either a single reactor or several reactors in parallel or in series. A product stream comprising vinyl acetate, water, optionally ethane, gaseous by-products and unreacted acetic acid and ethylene is withdrawn from the second reaction zone (2) and is fed to the scrubber column (3) where a gaseous stream comprising ethylene, and optionally ethane together with inerts, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by-products is withdrawn overhead and is recycled to the first reaction zone (1). A liquid stream comprising vinyl acetate, water, unreacted acetic acid and possibly present high boiling products of the process are withdrawn from the base of the scrubber column (3) and vinyl acetate is isolated in state of the art equipment not shown. For example it is fed to a distillation column where vinyl acetate and water is removed as an azeotrope and acetic acid, and the possibly present high boiling products are removed as a bleed from the base of the distillation column. The water in the overhead stream from the distillation column can be separated from the vinyl acetate in a decanter and a vinyl acetate product stream removed from decanter is purified by conventional means known in the art.

Carbon dioxide by-product can be removed by any viable technical process known in the art e. g. by reversible absorption in an aqueous K2COs solution which is regenerated in a desorption column (not shown).

The invention is illustrated in the following examples.

Examples Preparation of Catalysts Example (1) Preparation of catalysts (Mo100Pd0 ooo75vo 55Nbo 09Sb001 cao o1 ox) Solution 1 80 g ammonium molybdat (Riedel-de Haen) in 400 mi water.

Solution 2 29.4 g ammonium metavanadate (Riedel-de Haen) in 400 ml water.

Solution 3 19.01 g niobium ammonium oxalate (H. C. Starck) 1.92 g antimony oxalate (Pfaltz & Bauer), and 1.34 g calcium nitrate (Riedel-de Haen) in 200 mi water.

Solution 4 0.078 g palladium (II) acetate (Aldrich) in 200 ml ethanol.

Solutions 1,2 and 3 were stirred separately at 70°C for 15 minutes. Then, solution 3 was poured into solution 2, and stirred together at 70°C for another 15 minutes before adding this into solution 1. Thereafter, solution 4 was added.

The resulting mixture was evaporated to obtain a remaining total volume of 800 ml.

This mixture was spray-dried at 180°C followed by drying the powder in static air at 120°C for 2 hours and calcining at 300°C for 5 hours. The resulting catalyst I was then pressed, broken and sieved into a granular fraction between 0.35 and 0.70 mm.

Example (2) Preparation of catalyst li : K, Pd, Au/TiO2 2.11 g palladium acetate (Aldrich) and 1.32 g gold acetate were dissolved in 30 ml acetic acid. The preparation of the employed gold acetate is described e. g. in US-A- 4,933,204.100 ml TiO2 support (P25 pellets, Degussa, Hanau) were added to the palladium and gold acetate solution. Then, the majority of acetic acid was evaporated using a rotary evaporator at 70 °C, followed by evaporating the rest using an oil pump at 60 °C and finally in a vacuum drying cabinet at 60 °C for 14 h.

The resulting pellets were reduced with a gas mixture of 10 vol% hydrogen in nitrogen, while passing the gas (40 I/h) directly through the pellets at 500 °C and 1 bar for 1 h. For loading with potassium ions, the reduced pellets were added to a solution containing 4 g potassium acetate in 30 ml of water, for 15 minutes in a mixing apparatus.

Then, the solvent was evaporated using a rotary evaporator. The pellets were dried at 100 °C for 14 h.

Catalyst II was prepared in three batches using the same process; they are called 11 a, 11 b and 11 c, respectively.

Catalytic Tests For performing the catalytic reaction described in steps (a) and (b) of the present invention, double-wall fixed bed reactors with an inner diameter of 14 mm and 20 mm, respectively, and a length of 350 mm were used. The reactor was heated via the external tube with an oil bath. Typically, 5 mi and 15 ml of catalyst, respectively, partially mixed with some inert material, e. g. typically glass, quartz or alumina granules or beads in a catalyst to inert material volume ratio of e. g. 2: 1,1: 1,1: 2,1: 5.

To decrease the dead volume of the reactor, it was filled up with inert material (as mentioned above) before and after the catalyst bed. The volume flows were typically adjusted by mass and liquid flow controllers, respectively.

The analysis of reaction products was performed by on-line gas chromatography.

The results of catalytic measurements on catalyst I (example (1)) for performing step (a) of the present invention using one single reactor are shown in Table 1. To be able to compare the results easily, such measurements which were performed at the same total pressure (15 bar), are described.
