Abstract
A process for the production of vinyl acetate is disclosed. The process comprises reacting ethylene, acetic acid, and oxygen in the presence of a catalyst to produce a reaction mixture comprising vinyl acetate, ethylene, carbon dioxide, acetic acid, water and ethylene glycol diacetate. The reaction mixture is separated to a gas stream comprising ethylene, and carbon dioxide and a crude vinyl acetate stream comprising vinyl acetate, acetic acid, water and ethylene glycol diacetate. An ethylene glycol diacetate stream is isolated from the crude vinyl acetate stream and subjected to a reactive distillation to recover acetic acid.
