Abstract
A process for the continuous manufacture of a nitric acid ester of a polyhydric alcohol by reacting the polyhydric alcohol with nitrating acid, comprising circulating a stream of waste nitrating acid through a closed loop, injecting nitrosulphuric acid into said circulating stream, cooling the stream downstream of the injection, feeding the alcohol via a mixer into the cooled stream, cooling the stream to remove heat produced by reaction, and separating nitrated polyhydric alcohol from the loop, along with sufficient waste acid to keep the volume in the loop substantially constant, circulation being carried out at a rate such that the average residence time of waste acid in the loop is less than about 15 minutes, preferably about 2 to 5 minutes. This avoids the prolonged storage of large quantities of waste acid which is inherently dangerous. When the system is to be shut down all the circulating waste acid can be replaced by fresh nitrosulphuric acid, relatively small in volume.
