Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for efficiently and continuously producing a cellulose ether containing a reduced amount of indissoluble component. Specifically, the method includes a contact step of bringing pulp into contact with an alkali metal hydroxide solution in the presence of a heat removal solvent to obtain alkali cellulose; a reaction step of subjecting the alkali cellulose to a reaction with an etherifying agent; a partial condensation step, after completion of the reaction, of partially condensing a gas present in a reaction vessel used for the reaction to separate the gas into gas and liquid components for returning some or all of the gas component to the contact step for reuse as some or all of the heat removal solvent; and a step of incinerating the liquid component and, when all of the gas component is not returned to the contact step, the remainder of the gas component.
