  • Publication number: 20120258019
    Abstract: A redissociating apparatus to carry out a process for redissociating Michael adducts which are present in a liquid F with a proportion by weight of ?10% by weight and have been formed in the preparation of acrylic acid or esters thereof is provided. The apparatus comprises a pump P, a separating column K with separating internals and a circulation heat exchanger UW, wherein, for the purpose of supplying the cleavage energy, the pump P sucks in bottoms liquid from the bottom space of the separating column K and, via the circulation heat exchanger UW, continually recycles it into the bottom space above the level of the bottoms liquid, and wherein the pump P is a radial circulation pump with an open impeller.
