If this Reaction need heat then why mr Nerv used of ice in his system?
Really if this reaction is CALEFACTORY then the method must be same in all project.
(i know many reaction between gas and liquid then need CHILL no heat!)

We added ice because a lot ketene and was escaping out of the second wash bottle tower filled with water. We could tell this by the smell. When we added ice to the GAA-filled ''absorber'' there was no ketene out the second water-filled absorber. I can only presume that decreased temperature of GAA lead to more ketene solubility or at least a longer residence time in the GAA. But it also means a slower reaction with the GAA so there is probably a point of diminishing returns. I can not say at what scale it is advantageous to cool or to heat your glacial acetic acid, but for us, we found that the least amount of ketene escaped the system when it was cooled.


Edit: It should be noticed that the Acetic acid never got above 30*C; we did NOT try it hot. I suppose we could have heated our absorption vessel with heating tape and tried it that way. It will probably be better to do it that way.

You can calculate the heat of reaction between ketene and acetic acid, standard textbook chemistry; the heat of formation of ketene given before 1980 or so is not correct.

There are other things besides a reaction being exothermic or endothermic that affect how it goes.

The pilot plant document runs the absorption at about 80 C for several reasons; this was done to get best performance. Cooling the acetic acid with ice won't prevent the reaction from taking place. It may have some effect on the performance of the system, but on a small scale benchtop system that is not out to optimise performance that difference might be unimportant to the operators of the equipment.

(2) United States Patent 4455439

In this process for the preparation of ketene by the thermal, catalytic cracking of acetic acid under reduced pressure, the hot cracked gases are cooled to approx. 0° to -10° C. and, in the course thereof, water, unreacted acetic acid and acetic anhydride are condensed. The quantity of acetic acid employed for the thermal cracking reaction should be 0.5 to 2.5 t×hours-1 ×m-3, relative to the volume V of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger through which the cracked gas is passed. The pressure drop in the tubular heat exchanger should be 50 to 150 mbars and the surface/volume ratio should be 60 to 120 m-1

Because you keep spelling it incorrectly :

Quote:
RESULT LIST
Approximately 8981 results found in the Worldwide database for:
Acetic Anhydride in the title or abstract
Only the first 500 results are displayed.


30c ? Chungah? Cullishigay? cups? Congius? Cotyla?

Doesn't sound like the best absorption scheme to me.

It's generally advisable not to ascribe hostile motivations for what can readily be explained by benign factors.

In this case, the links you posted are for patents that are all over 40 years old. Thus the reason why the abstracts and scanned images are unavailable to you has nothing to do with the fact that you are in Iran--rather, they are unavailable to everyone, because they have simply never been scanned or typed into the EPO system. Patents of that vintage generally only have their titles, issue dates and registration numbers available in the public EPO database.

It's a clever idea, but it has a major flaw -

remember that at the most you'll only convert about 20% of the acetone per pass through the hot tube. You can increase the amount of acetone decomposed to higher percentages, but then increasing amounts of the ketene formed decompose - mostly to carbon monoxide and ethylene but also to small amounts of other stuff that will contaminate the acetic anhydride formed later. In general the experimenters that got the highest overall yields had relatively small conversions per pass, maybe 10%, and recycled the unconverted acetone.

In your latest idea at least 3/4 of the acetone boiled off is going to be condensing in the upper section. It then runs back towards the hot tube section, at first boiling before it reaches it through its cooling of the reaction gases. But there will be an increasing amount of acetone up there, running down and cooling down the upper section of the hot tube. Remember that the acetone doesn't start decomposing until it reaches 500 C or so, so much of the refluxing acetone is just going to be gargling away in the region between the hot tube and condenser, until there's so much that it overwhelms the heated section.

What is your intended production rate per day?

Mr not important thanks.
You Say Complete True.acetone will not convert to ketene.
But you should accept that in the vogel book(ketene lamp) this is difficult to build U tube for acetone recycle.because the DEPTH of U tube is DEPENDENT to pressure of acetone(boiling rate and amount),This is problem.
i am building one horizontal system.(one 10 lit flask,1m copper tube,1 meter copper condenser,..) i want to run it and write the diffirent result(i will test it with aniline)
but i believe the horizontal isnt good system(we must use 10 lit acetone for have 1lit anhydrid or less)i think the vertical system hasnt this problem but vertical system has U tube problem.what is your suggestion?
for operate my system i want first boil acetone for 5 minutes then i will start the heater because i want no air contain in my tube.i dont want explosion(is good suggestion?)
do you know the u tube calculate?(i think that need gas pressure physic knowledge)
mr not important,thanks

If you don't have an acetone return, then you must run the system until you've boiled most of the acetone off, cool it down, add back the condensed acetone plus makeup, bring the boiler up to heat, bring the furnace up to heat, and then start processing the ketene stream. This adds to the amount of time it takes to make a given amount of product.

I've repeatedly suggested you use an absorption tower as in the PDFs. When run as done in the project PDF, the exist gases from the top of the tower are acetone vapour and acetone/ketene decomposition products - methane, ethylene, carbon monoxide.

With a return path for the acetone you could get away with a 2 liter boiler, continuously add makeup acetone to the return stream, and still make as much or more ketene per day as with the open ended large boiler.

Yes, a passive return system will take enough height for the weight of acetone in it to counter the pressure difference between the boiler and condenser. That's the laws of nature, not easy to get around them. Condensing the acetone gives the liquid acetone for recycling at some height above the base of the tower, and likely above the boiler. With that arrangement it's fairly simple to design the system so the acetone return functions properly.

Aniline costs about 50 EUR/L. Even if it would be 4 times more expensive where you live and assuming you use 0.5 ml for each measurement, then it would cost you 0.10 EUR per test.
I bet you paid more to the internet provider for the time you spent posting and reading the replies.

This does not make any sense at all. How is the size of your ketene producing system connected with the amount of aniline you use to determine the concentration of ketene and/or acetanhydride in the product? Why are you using 50 ml of aniline for the testing?
