Title:
METHOD FOR PREPARING BISPHENOL A
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/030687
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for preparing bisphenol A, which comprising the following steps: sending phenol and acetone to reaction zone with condensation catalysts to give a stream containing bisphenol A; sending this stream to rectification zone to obtain a fraction mainly containing bisphenol A and phenol; and delivering this fraction to crystalization zone to get the product of bisphenol A; which is characterized in that, in addition to the stream containing bisphenol A, a water-depleted fraction, which mainly contains phenol, bisphenol A and acetone, is obtained in the rectification zone and is recycled to the reaction zone after being cooled down. Through the recirculating of the water-depleted fraction, the water content in the reaction zone can be reduced, the activity of catalysts can be maintained and the exotherm of the reaction can be controlled. Accordingly, the conversion of acetone and the selectivity of the reaction will be improved.
