The plant is constructed using high-quality materials that are resistant to corrosion and wear, ensuring a long service life. The maintenance requirements are minimal, which makes it an ideal choice for businesses that need a low-maintenance solution for their acetaldehyde production needs.

Manufacture of From Acetaldehyde

Acetaldehyde is converted to by liquid phase catalytic oxidation at a relatively low temperature around 55° C and at a pressure of 4.0 Kgs./cm2g. The reaction can be

represented by the following equation.

50 – 60° C

CH3CHO + 1/2 02———————— >CH3COOH + Heat

Mn Acetate

The oxygen for the reaction is supplied by atmospheric air. The heat of reaction is removed by cooling water. The vent gases mainly consisting of Nitrogen are first scrubbed with crude and then washed

with water to remove any traces of  carried by vent gases. The over flow from the reactor is sent to a stripping column where unconverted acetaldehyde is recovered. The stripped crude acid along with liquid from wash column is sent to a distillation column to get pure from the bottom.

Frequently asked question about Acetaldehyde Plant

Yes, the Attomo Acetaldehyde Plant maximizes efficiency through a state-of-the-art control panel providing real-time data on temperature and pressure. By utilizing liquid phase catalytic oxidation at 55°C, the system ensures precise process control. This turnkey solution is engineered to optimize output while reducing manual oversight for resins and adhesives manufacturing.

To produce 1000 kgs of high-purity Acetaldehyde, the basis typically requires 810 kgs of 100% Acetaldehyde input alongside catalysts like Manganese Acetate and Potassium Permanganate. The process also utilizes 2000 kgs of saturated steam and 200 KWH of electric power. These specific metrics ensure a balanced, cost-effective industrial chemical reaction.

Yes, the plant is specifically designed to facilitate the conversion of Acetaldehyde into Acetic Acid through catalytic oxidation. By maintaining a pressure of 4.0 Kgs./cm2g and utilizing atmospheric air, the reactor produces crude acid. The integrated stripping and distillation columns then recover unconverted Acetaldehyde to ensure a pure bottom-product output.

Attomo’s plants are built using high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials specifically selected to withstand harsh chemical environments. This focus on material science ensures a long service life with minimal maintenance requirements. Using exotic and cladded metal equipment, the design prevents wear during the high-heat oxidation processes required for industrial chemical production.

The most effective way involves a multi-stage scrubbing process to recover valuable materials and ensure safety.

  • Primary Scrubbing: Vent gases (primarily Nitrogen) are first scrubbed with crude acid.
  • Water Wash: Gases are then washed with water to remove remaining traces.
  • Recovery: Unconverted Acetaldehyde is reclaimed via a stripping column to maximize total yield.
