Patent AT-E400541-T1: [Translated] METHOD FOR INCREASE YIELD IN THE PRODUCTION OF VALUE ALCOHOLS BY CLIPING BY-PRODUCTS CONTAINING ACETAL

Description

The invention relates to a method for increasing yield in the production of polyvalent alcohols, especially trimethylolpropane, obtained by condensing formaldehyde with a higher aldehyde. According to the inventive method, acid treatment is carried out on a mixture (high-boiling fraction) that is obtained by reprocessing, contains derivatives of said alcohols and has a higher boiling point than the respective alcohol, and the polyvalent alcohol is recovered from the acid-treated high-boiling fraction. The inventive method is characterised in that the water content of the high-boiling fraction amounts to between 20 and 90 wt. % in relation to the entire mixture of the high-boiling fraction and water.
