Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An aldehyde adsorbent that can adsorb and remove aldehyde from a carboxylic acid-containing liquid is provided. The aldehyde adsorbent is an aldehyde adsorbent for adsorbing aldehyde in a carboxylic acid-containing liquid containing aldehyde, including a cation exchange resin ion-exchanged with a polyvalent amine in 1 to 99% by mol of the total exchange capacity.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An aldehyde adsorbent for adsorbing aldehyde in a carboxylic acid-containing liquid containing aldehyde, comprising a cation exchange resin ion-exchanged with a polyvalent amine in 40 to 80% by mol of the total exchange capacity of the cation exchange resin. 2. The aldehyde adsorbent according claim 1 , wherein the polyvalent amine is at least one selected from the group consisting of hydrazine, ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine and 1,3-propanediamine. 3. The aldehyde adsorbent according to claim 1 , wherein the aldehyde is at least one selected from the group consisting of acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butylaldehyde and condensates thereof. 4. The aldehyde adsorbent according to claim 1 , wherein the carboxylic acid is acetic acid. 5. The aldehyde adsorbent according to claim 1 , wherein the cation exchange resin is a strongly acidic cation-exchange resin. 6. A method for removing aldehyde, comprising bringing a carboxylic acid-containing liquid containing aldehyde into contact with the aldehyde adsorbent according to claim 1 to adsorb and remove aldehyde. 7. The method for removing aldehyde according to claim 6 , wherein the carboxylic acid-containing liquid containing aldehyde is at least one of process liquids produced during production of acetic acid by carbonylation of methanol and absorption liquids in which low boiling components included in a process gas produced during the production are absorbed. 8. A method for regenerating an aldehyde adsorbent, comprising contacting the aldehyde adsorbent according to claim 1 , to which aldehyde is adsorbed, with an aqueous inorganic acid solution to thereby remove aldehyde together with the polyvalent amine.
