What is Ketene Production from Acetic Acid about?
This document summarizes experiments to produce ketene from acetic acid, methyl acetate, and ethyl acetate. Acetic acid was pyrolyzed at 680-760°C and 140-160 mm Hg absolute pressure in the presence of 0.33% triethyl phosphate or phosphoric acid catalyst. Maximum ketene yield was 80.6% and maximum conversion was 34.5%. Methyl acetate was cracked at 610-685°C and 95-400 mm Hg absolute pressure using various catalysts including triethyl phosphate, phosphoric acid, and silica gel-boric acid. Maximum ketene
