Abstract: A hydrogenation method for increasing the yield of cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid diisooctyl ester is provided. The hydrogenation method uses a hydrogenating reaction tank, which is equipped with a hollow-shaft gas-introducing mixer having air-extracting, air-exhausting and mixing functions, to allow hydrogen gas to be uniformly dispersed in a reaction solution.

Abstract: A method for preparing 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol is provided. The method allows hydrogen gas fed into a reaction tank to be uniformly dispersed in a reaction solution by a gas-introducing mixer having air-extracting, air-exhausting and mixing functions.

Furthermore, the method uses a hydrogenation catalyst having many advantages such as high activity and low cost. The added amount of the hydrogenation catalyst can be reduced under the operation of the gas-introducing mixer.
