Do You Know The Production Technology Of Ethyl Acetate?

Dec. 20,

With competitive price and timely delivery, SL Tec sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.

The process of Ethyl Acetate Production includes the steps of batching, esterification, phase separation, dehydration, refining, and recovery. Acetic acid and ethanol are mixed into the esterification kettle in a certain ratio, and then a concentrated sulfuric acid catalyst is added to the esterification tank for esterification reaction, and the reacted product enters the esterification tower, and the vapor phase of ethyl acetate and water are cooled by the overhead condenser.  We adopt advanced Ethyl Acetate Production Technology, after entering the phase separator, the phases are separated to obtain a crude ester. The crude ester is passed through a dehydration column system and a rectification column system to obtain a finished ethyl acetate. At the same time, the recovery tower system recovers esters and alcohols in the wastewater. The recovered ester and alcohol are de-bindered.

In addition, the technical characteristics of Ethyl Acetate Technology is

1. The energy consumption of dehydration is greatly reduced compared with the traditional ternary azeotropy

2. The esterification reaction uses an esterification tower with a reboiler, an esterification reaction reactor, and the feed enters from the reboiler.

3. Dehydration rectification shares one column, and neutralization reaction is not carried out with sodium sulfonate.

4. The process is simple, fully automatic control

Below are some of the loading and unloading solutions for illustrative purposes only. Our experts will work with you and your team for a custom solution to suit your needs.

Ethyl Acetate Loading Arms

Ethyl Acetate is typically loaded into railcars or tank trucks via boom supported carbon steel loading arms or chemical hoses with a flange connection. 

The arm or hose will have a top inlet with a control valve to ensure that it is self-draining after use and is supported along the length of a mechanical loading arm to improve handling; this is known as a by-pass arm.  You can install one liquid and one vapor arm, or mount both the liquid and vapor hoses on one by-pass arm.

For unloading, typically you would use a rigid carbon steel self-draining loading arm with EPDM, FFKM or  PTFE  seals.  Purge lines can be fitted to the arm, for nitrogen purging.  Additional features such as parking latches with proximity sensors can be incorporated into the total system to ensure the arm is correctly stowed when not in use, before any rail movement can occur.

Loading Gangways and Safety Cages

A wider access gangway (48&#;-60&#; is preferable) as it helps improve access and egress to and from the vessel. In addition, a wider gangway will reduce the risk of the operator&#;s PPE getting caught, torn or damaged, and will improve productivity and safety. Powered gangway solutions are also an option, with both hydraulic and pneumatic solutions being commonly used.

Each gangway will be fitted with a two-rail safety cage for the railcar crash box.  This will be a centered 6&#;x6&#; safety cage to sit directly over the cashbox.  This will provide a safe, secure work environment for your operator when connected to their breathing apparatus.

SafeRack&#;s GX SAS gangways use Retractalok power-assist technology allowing operators to raise or lower effortlessly, light as a feather to lift, and solid as a rock. Tested in the most critical applications, this revolutionary new gangway outperforms all others. Available in multiple lengths and widths.

MAXRack Elevating Safety Cage

As an alternative to our two and four-rail safety cages, some customers prefer our MAXRack elevating safety cages. The ultimate fall prevention solution engineered to keep operators safe and productive. Designed for both trucks or railcars, and available in multiple cage lengths and widths. Safe, durable, and easy to use. MAXRack is built rock-solid with galvanized steel column supports and lifting arms (cages can be Aluminum, Galvanized, or Stainless Steel depending on application)  Available in two power options &#; Pneumatic Air Drive and Electric Drive (Explosion and Non-Explosion Proof).

Ethyl Acetate Eye Wash/Drench Showers

ANSI guidelines state that an Eye Wash/Drench Showers need to be located 10 seconds or 55&#; (16.8m) from contaminants or hazardous materials.

Eyewash stations need to be on the same horizontal plane with no obstructions.

Therefore, we would propose the installation of a standard combination Drench Shower/Eyewash Unit, which will save limited space and fit easily into any work environment.

Ethyl Acetate Spill Containment

Spill containment pans will be provided at the point of loading operations and is an essential piece of equipment in overall site safety and environmental protection.

Ethyl Acetate Grounding

While aniline is not flammable, industry best practice includes the grounding of all vessels before starting the (un)loading process.

• Vehicle grounding and bonding &#; ensure true grounding before product flow is permitted
• Explosion-proof enclosures &#; meet or exceed UL, CSA, and Ex requirements

Ethyl Acetate Safety Gates

Safety Gates will be installed at the top of stairs and any other openings to ensure operator safety at all times.

YellowGate Safety Gates

SafeRack&#;s line of industrial safety gates is the most flexible product on the market with the ability span openings between 16&#; and 36&#; and is field adjustable with nothing more than a wrench. Learn More

 

Ethyl Acetate Options

• Lighting &#; Lighting both over and under the platform will be provided. For overcast days or second shift, lighting is essential for improved safety and improved productivity.
• Platform & Canopies &#; Full platform canopies reduce exposure to the elements and improve the safe and productive loading operation from the operator&#;s perspective.
• Operator Shelter &#; Depending on your site requirements, consideration should be given to the requirement of an operator or guard building on the loading platform. This can be customized to meet specific site requirements.
• Wheel Chocks &#; Railcar Wheel Chocks provide fast blocking of all types of railcars and meet OSHA regulations to safely prevent railroad cars from moving during loading or unloading operations.  This is a requirement by the Department of Homeland Security.

Personal Protective Equipment PPE Requirements

Eye/Face Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles. A face shield (with safety goggles) may also be necessary.

Skin Protection: Wear chemical protective clothing e.g. gloves, aprons, boots. Coveralls or long sleeve shirts and pants in some operations. Wear a chemical protective, full-body encapsulating suit, and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Suitable materials include: butyl rubber, neoprene rubber, Viton®, Viton®/butyl rubber, Barrier® &#; PE/PA/PE, Silver Shield® &#; PE/EVAL/PE, Trellchem® HPS, Trellchem® VPS, Saranex®&#;, Tychem® BR/LV, Tychem® Responder® CSM, Tychem® TK. The following materials should NOT be used: natural rubber, polyvinyl chloride. Recommendations are NOT valid for very thin neoprene rubber gloves (0.3 mm or less).

Respiratory Protection: Up to 5 ppm:

(APF = 10) Any chemical cartridge respirator with cartridge(s) providing protection against Aniline*; or Any supplied-air respirator*.

*Reported to cause eye irritation or damage; may require eye protection.

APF = Assigned Protection Factor

Recommendations apply only to National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) approved respirators. Refer to the NIOSH pocket guide to chemical hazards for more information.

Use a local exhaust ventilation and enclosure, if necessary, to control the amount in the air. Consider using a corrosion-resistant exhaust ventilation system separate from other ventilation systems. It may be necessary to use stringent control measures such as process enclosure to prevent product release into the workplace. Use backup controls (e.g. double mechanical pump seals) to prevent the release of this material due to equipment failure.* For illustrative purposes only.
