Abstract

<FORM:0879264/IV (b)/1> In the production of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol by the catalytic hydrogenation of a diester of 1,4-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid in the liquid phase, wherein the hydrogenation is carried out in two reactors 14, 22 connected in series, each containing catalyst and being maintained at a controlled temperature of 100 DEG -350 DEG C., preferably 200 DEG -300 DEG C., and under a hydrogen-pressure of 50 to 500 atm., part of the partially-reduced ester discharged from the primary reactor 14 is recycled to that reactor, together with fresh diester feed, in order to prevent the formation of injurious "hot spots" in the catalyst due to the exothermic reaction. The mixture of recycled material and fresh feed should have, per part of mixture, a heat of reduction to 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol equivalent to not more than 0.6 parts of the diester. Copper chromite is a suitable catalyst; and the chromite of zinc, silver or manganese may also be used. Manganese oxide and magnesium oxide may also be used as catalyst. Fresh diester feed is pumped through conduit 11 into conduit 12 where it mixes with recycle material, pumped from reservoir 17. The mixture flows into reactor 14 via heat-exchanger 13. Hydrogen is introduced into reactor 14 via conduit 15. The output from reactor 14 flows into reservoir 17; and a portion of this output flows via conduit and heat-exchange 21 into secondary reactor 22. Heat-exchangers 13 and 21 can serve either to remove excess heat generated in the system or to heat the feed-material to the reactors to the desired temperature. The temperature is controlled by means of the two heat exchangers, and by varying the proportion of reducible ester in the feed material to the reactors, the latter is preferably adjusted so that the temperature rise in the reactors, due to the exothermic reaction, is in the range of 10 DEG to 35 DEG C. The output from reactor 22 flows to gas-liquid separator 24, from which hydrogen is vented through conduit 25, while a mixture of 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and by-product alcohol is withdrawn through conduit 26. The by-product alcohol is separated from the 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol by distillation. Another embodiment is described wherein a gas-liquid separator and a condenser are connected between the two reactors, and part of the by-product alcohol is withdrawn from the system via the condenser.
