Abstract: A method for preparing an aldehyde including forming a reaction product including an aldehyde by reacting an olefin-based compound with a synthetic gas in a hydroformylation reactor in the presence of a hydroformylation catalyst; introducing the reaction product including the aldehyde to a vaporizer; separating low-boiling point components of the reaction product from an upper part of a vaporizer catch pot included in the vaporizer; separating high-boiling point components of the reaction product from a lower part of the vaporizer catch pot; and recirculating at least a portion of the low-boiling point components separated from an upper part of the vaporizer catch pot back to the vaporizer.

Abstract: A method for producing neopentyl glycol comprising a step of perforning a hydrogenation reaction by injecting a hydroxypivaldehyde (HPA) solution and hydrogen into a hydrogenation reactor, and a step of adjusting the content of H2O contained in the hydroxypivaldehyde solutionto 6.0% by weight or less before the hydroxypivaldehyde solution being injected into the hydrogenation reactor.
