Abstract
An improved process for de-cobaltizing the primary product of an oxo synthesis is disclosed wherein the primary product is contacted with steam introduced into a vessel to which the primary oxo product is introduced but initially maintained in out of contact relationship to such product by a cooling medium whereby heat transfer from the steam to the primary product is initially avoided. The primary product and steam are fed to a cylindrical reactor having a conical base, and after the steam has risen 1/2 to 2/3 of the height of the conical base it comes in contact with the primary product whose liquid level height in the vessel is maintained at one to two times the vessel's diameter. An apparatus for performing such process is also disclosed.
