What is Ethyl Acetate Plant and Process Technology and Why Do We Use Them?

Ethyl Acetate Production Plant

Ethyl acetate is colorless transparent liquid, low toxicity, sweet smell, irritating odor at higher concentration, volatile, sensitive to air, can absorb moisture, making it slowly hydrolyzed and acidic reaction. Can be miscible with chloroform, ethanol, acetone and ether, soluble in water (10%ml/ml). Can dissolve some metal salts (such as lithium chloride, cobalt chloride, zinc chloride, iron chloride, etc.) reaction. Relative density 0.902. Melting point -83℃. Boiling point 77℃. Refractive index 1.. Flash point 7.2℃(open cup). Flammable. Vapor can form explosive mixture with air. LD50 (rat, oral) 11.3ml/kg.

Processed in these plants using top quality ingredients, our offered products are highly miscible with diethyl ether, acetone, ethanol & benzene and are widely used in nail polish remover & glues.

There are 4 main prevailing processes for ethyl acetate production, i.e. Direct Esterification Process, Acetaldehyde Condensation Process, Ethanol Dehydration Process and Acetic Acid-Ethylene Addition Process. Each process has its advantages and its applicable services. Our process is based on reactive-distillation esterification, which is mature, low costing and suitable for those with acetic acid feedstock.

FAQ of Ethyl Acetate Plant

How ethyl acetate is manufactured?

Ethyl Acetate Plants are designed mixing acetic acid and ethyl alcohol in a balanced proportion through a preheater to a kettle reboiler for distillation purpose. In this plant, acetic acid and ethyl alcohol is mixed in a balanced proportion through a preheater to a kettle reboiler for distillation purpose. This plant is known for its robust construction and ability continuously running at even high speeds.

The major procedure to fabricate ethyl acetate includes the esterification of ethanol using acetic acid although some is made by the catalytic form of acetaldehyde with alkoxides. Do you understand Ethyl Acetate Production Technology?

At the primary esterification procedure, a combination of acetic acid and ethanol that has a little number of sulphuric acid is fed and invisibly into an esterifying column in which it's refluxed. The mix removed goes to another refluxing column in which a ternary azeotrope comprising 85 percent ethyl acetate is eliminated.

Ethyl Acetate Production Process is that water is mixed with the distillate after which it divides into two layers. The top layer is fed into a refluxing column where the residue containing 95 percent ethyl acetate is distilled to remove any impurities.
