Abstract
A process for processing polycaprolactam extraction liquors by evaporation of water and distillation of the residue in which the evaporation of water is carried out in a plurality of stages and the evaporation energy for the removal of the bulk of the water is taken from the heat liberated in the rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime to caprolactam in oleum or sulfuric acid by using the extraction water for cooling the rearrangement mixture and utilizing the heat absorbed by the extraction water for the concentration of this extraction water by evaporation of water.
