Formaldehyde (HCHO)is basic chemical raw material, widely applied in resin, plastic, leather, paper and fiber production, plays very
important role in humans production and life.
Relying on a group of well-known senior engineers continuous exploration and innovation in formaldehyde industry, based on the traditional
production process, Jiangsu Kaimao Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. has developed a series of formaldehyde processes such as off-gas
circulation process, low conversion alcohol free process, flue gas circulation process and the newest formaldehyde process (Kaimao

Process).; Created a new route for Chinese formaldehyde industry, and taken leading position in Chinese formaldehyde industry.

Section A. Formaldehyde Production Process


Mr. Allen Wang(General
Manager)

1.Tail gas circulation process


The formaldehyde traditional production process is that through methanol evaporation, mixing gas heating, filtration and after fire retardant,
the methanol is oxidized, and the reaction product is absorbed to produce formaldehyde. The formaldehyde concentration can reach 37% in
this production process. Along with formaldehyde down stream products development, and energy saving, emission reduction requirement,
more and more formaldehyde producing enterprises wish to increase formaldehyde concentration. Therefore, tail gas circulation process
was developed to meet this requirement. The purpose of using tail gas instead of steam vapor is to reduce steam feed. Because the water
content in the system is reduced, the formaldehyde concentration can be increased a lot and reaches to around 45%, furthermore, the
byproduct steam is also increased.

2.Low Conversion, Methanol Free Process
In traditional methanol oxidation process, the methanol oxidation temperature is about 650. Also there are side reactions to form
CO2,CO.
Meanwhile, the formaldehyde final product contains 1% of methanol residue. This will increase methanol consumption. Low
conversion, methanol free process is to lower reaction temperature, decrease side reactions occurrence, and the non-reacted methanol is
recovered by distillation. Through this process, the methanol consumption is decreased, and the methanol concentration is increased.


3.Flue Gas Circulation Process
Besides CO2,CO,CH4,CH2OH,CH2O, the tail gas also contains 18-20% hydrogen. Hydrogen will cause reduction in the oxidation process,
also will consume methanol to form CH4 (side reactions). The existing of hydrogen will inhibit de-hydrogen reaction, also increase methanol
consumption. So, we developed Flue Gas Circulation Process.
N2 , CO2 and other inert gases are the main compositions in the flue gas. These gases do not participate in the reaction, furthermore, and
can play the role of inhibiting the formation of CO2,CO, CH4,HCOOH. The byproduct can be reduced to CO2 2.2-2.8%,CO 0.1-0.3%,CH4
0.1-0.2%, saved
methanol 8-10kg/t in total. Meanwhile, the flue gas contains 5-10% excess oxygen, as a result, output can be increased
10-20%, Steam is generated in this process as byproduct, and the steam output can be increased 10%, and power consumption will be
decreased 4-6KWh/t

Flue Gas Circulation Process is superior to other processes. It is a new process and technology and deserved to be promoted. Jiangsu
Hengmao has a group of engineers and technicians, who are specialized in this production know-how and process, they are energetic and
creative. We also like to undertake turn-key EPC project to offer engineering design,
fabrication, installation, and commissioning.

4.The Newest Formaldehyde Production Process(Kaimao process)


Tail Gas Circulation Process and Low Conversion, Methanol Free Process is all developed based on the traditional process. The process
route: methanol evaporationover heatfiltrationoxidation1# absorption tower2# absorption tower(3# absorption tower)
tail gas incineration. It has long process, more equipments, and high energy consumption, and covered big land area. Based on years
production practice, absorbed original process advantages, Kaimao Company has developed the newest formaldehyde production process
with own intellectual property. Three sets of equipment (EvaporationOxidationAbsorption) are applied in this know-how to replace
traditional equipments in this new process. It has the advantage of shorter process route, less land coverage and low investment ;
furthermore, low methanol formaldehyde with high concentration products can be received.
The Newest Formaldehyde Process and Features:
This process is equipped with air scrubber, which assures raw material gas cleanness. Clean air will help decrease system resistance and
increase electrolytic silver efficiency, which will be in favor of formaldehyde production. The air after scrubbing is sent to the evaporator by
blower. The evaporator is multi-functional evaporation equipment, combined with evaporation, mixing, over-heating, and filtration. Methanol,
air, steam and tail gas (flue gas) are mixed uniformly in proportion in the evaporator, then, sent to the oxidation reactor.
Methanol, the oxygen in the air is reacted to form formaldehyde in the oxidation reactor under silver catalyst; while the steam and tail gas
(flue gas) is to take away the generated heat. Set a heat exchanging section in the oxidation reactor. The purpose for this is to:
a. Increase vapor amount to recover more steam.
b. Increase outlet temperature of oxidation reactor; produce high concentration formaldehyde with low methanol.
An absorption tower is divided into distillation section and absorption
section inside to form concentration and temperature gradients. In this
way, it will avoid formaldehyde polymerization and help to form high concentration formaldehyde, also recover methanol.
The final tail gas is sent to the incinerator for burning. After incineration, the flue gas after cooling can be returned to evaporator as heat
transfer medium.
Comprehensive Heat System With High Heat Utilization Rate
Salt free water can be replenished into the combination evaporator to reduce feeding steam consumption.
The heat in formaldehyde circulation of absorption tower can be used for evaporating methanol so that save steam.

Combination Type Evaporator can greatly shorten the distance between evaporator and oxidation reactor; therefore, equipment
arrangement will be more tight, as a result, decrease heat loss.
The emission gas from incinerator can be used to preheat water of boiler or air, byproduct steam can be sent out for other application, and
the whole facility heat energy is comprehensively utilized.

Section B. Use Iron, molybdenum method to produce formaldehyde


Iron, molybdenum method is operated below the methanol-air explosion limit, which means it is operated in the air excess condition, so, it is
also called Air Excess Method. This reaction occurs under
ambient pressure at 250-400, so that, can reduce side reaction, increase
convert rate and lower consumption.

1.Iron, molybdenum method process
Iron, molybdenum method methanol oxidation reactions are as following:
Main Reaction
CH3OH + 1/2O2 CH2O + H2O - 159KJ/mol
Side Reaction
CH3OH + 3/2O2 CO2 + 2H2O
CH3OH + O2 CO + 2H2O
CH3OH + O2 HCOOH + H2O
2CH3OH CH3OCH3 + H2O
Formaldehyde production using iron, molybdenum method consists of air compression, reaction, steam generation, and formaldehyde
absorption etc. processes.
The air, through silencer, is mixed with the circulation tail gas from the top of No.2 tower, after that, to be sent to the circulation blower,
then,
compressed and sent to methanol pre-evaporator.
Raw material methanol, from tank farm, is pumped to the evaporator to be heated and vaporized, at meantime, mixed with air to form raw
material mixing gases. The heat in the evaporator is supplied by the formaldehyde circulation solution which comes from No.2 tower. Raw
material mixing gases after over-heated through the evaporator, are reacted each other in the fixed bed reactor under the existing of iron,
molybdenum catalyst. The reacting temperature is controlled by heating oil. In the reaction process, the byproduct water steam will be
produced
when the heating oil is cooled down. The reaction product formaldehyde gas, through methanol evaporator coil, is cooled down
by heat exchanging
with raw material gas, then, is sent to the absorption tower. The liquid partially received in the circulation process is the
final product formaldehyde.
The off- gas from the top of No.2 absorption tower is partly returned to the blower inlet, another part is sent to incineration system.
Byproduct, steam is sent out for other application.

2.The comparison of iron, molybdenum method and silver method.
(1)Investment: Iron, molybdenum method is 50% higher than silver method.
(2)Unit methanol consumption: Because use silver method, formaldehyde is received in methanol excess condition, unit methanol
consumption in silver method is 5-10kg more than iron, molybdenum method.
(3)Energy consumption: Energy consumption of iron, molybdenum method is
2.3 times more than that of silver method, while the steam
output (byproduct) is almost same as Kaimao silver method.
