る。In this method for producing 1,4-butanediol using butadiene as a raw material, a large amount of acetic acid and water are used in the process, and acetic acid and water are by-produced by the reaction. Therefore, various proposals have been made for recovering and reusing these while maintaining high product purity (see the above publications). In these methods, separation of the target substance and acetic acid is usually performed by distillation. That is, the product liquid of the acetoxylation reaction obtained by reacting butadiene, acetic acid and oxygen to produce diacetoxybutene is subjected to degassing treatment to remove unreacted butadiene and the like, and then distilled in a distillation column. Water and acetic acid are distilled off from the top of the column, and components containing diacetoxybutene are extracted from the bottom of the column. The reaction product obtained by hydrolyzing diacetoxybutane is distilled in a distillation column to distill water, acetic acid and other light-boiling substances from the top, and contains 1,4-butanediol from the bottom. The ingredients have been extracted.

Is used. The flow of the bottom liquid through the heat exchanger is generally caused by natural circulation based on a difference in specific gravity generated by heating in the tube. When the liquid viscosity at the bottom of the distillation column is high, a heating method such as a thin film evaporator may be rarely adopted. Diacetoxybutene obtained by the acetoxylation reaction has a boiling point of around 230 ° C. (101 kPa) and a viscosity of about 2.0.
Since the pressure is MPa · sec (50 ° C), special consideration must be taken when designing the reboiler for the first distillation column, except that diacetoxybutene has a double bond. Was not considered to be. However, when the operation was continued while maintaining the bottom temperature at 190 ° C. or lower under the above-mentioned distillation conditions, the reboiler tube was unexpectedly clogged, and it was impossible to continue the operation for 3000 to 4000 hours or more. . In order to prevent the clogging of the reboiler tube, the addition of a polymerization inhibitor such as hydroquinone or the addition of an adhesion inhibitor was examined, but no effective additive was found.

することができる。However, it has been found that as the flow rate of the bottom liquid passing through the tubes of the heat exchanger increases, the adhesion of the polymer to the tubes decreases. Usually, when the liquid velocity at the tube inlet is 0.7 m / sec or more, the adhesion of the polymer is remarkably reduced. In general, the higher the flow rate, the lower the adhesion of the polymer. However, if the flow rate is increased, the pressure loss in the tube increases, and a large amount of energy is required to circulate the bottom liquid through the heat exchanger. If the flow velocity is too high, the tube may vibrate and the heat exchanger may be damaged. Therefore, the flow rate of the bottom liquid passing through the heat exchanger is preferably 5.0 m / sec or less at the inlet of the tube, and it is not advantageous to increase the flow rate more than this. The most preferred flow rate of the bottom liquid is 1.0 to 4.0 m / sec at the tube inlet.
To pass the bottom liquid through the heat exchanger at such a flow rate,
It is most simple to install a pump in the flow path of the bottom liquid from the bottom of the distillation column to the heat exchanger, and to supply the bottom liquid to the heat exchanger at a predetermined flow rate by the pump. According to the method of the present invention, the flow rate of the bottom liquid passing through the heat exchanger is set at 0.7 m / sec or more, particularly 1.0 to 4.0 seconds at the tube inlet, so that the first distillation column is reduced to about 1 It can be operated continuously over the years.
