Toth, Andreas published the artcileReactive Distillation for Solvent Regeneration after Biphasic Carboxylic Acid Esterification, Name: n-Octanol, the main research area is carboxylic acid esterification solvent regeneration reactive distillation.
Emulsion-enhanced biphasic esterification has proven to be applicable for carboxylic acid recovery from dilute aqueous process streams. The carboxylic acid is esterified with 1-octanol in an emulsified regime with 4-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (4-DBSA) or Ni(DBSA)2 as catalyst. After phase separation, the laden solvent phase must be regenerated. This study presents a regeneration concept based on reactive distillation with transesterification of the octyl ester-laden solvent with methanol. The regenerated solvent is reused in the extraction step.
Chemie Ingenieur Technik published new progress about Esterification. 111-87-5 belongs to class alcohols-buliding-blocks, name is n-Octanol, and the molecular formula is C8H18O, Name: n-Octanol.
