This process comprises the adiabatic nitration of benzene with a mixture of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, in which the sum of the concentrations in the reaction zone of the metal ions which form sparingly soluble metal sulfates is less than 900 mg/l, based on the volume of the aqueous phase which contains sulfuric acid. | 07-23-2009 |
20100076230 | CONTINUOUS PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF NITROBENZENE - The invention relates to a continuous process for the manufacture of nitrobenzene. This process comprises the nitration of benzene with nitrating acid that contains at least 3.0 wt. % of nitric acid and at least 67.0 wt. % of sulfuric acid, in a reaction space in which the start temperature of the reaction is above 100.0° C. but below 102.0° C. In addition, this process requires that the benzene and the nitrating acid are dispersed in one another several times. | 03-25-2010 |
