Zusammenfassung:AN IMPROVED APPARATUS AND METHOD OF PRODUCING ACETIC ACID INCLUDES RECOVERING PRODUCT FROM THE RESIDUE OF A LIGHT ENDS COLUMN AND FEEDING THE ACID SO RECOVERED FORWARD IN ORDER TO INCREASE SYSTEM PRODUCTIVITY. LOAD ON THE LIGHT ENDS COLUMN IS REDUCED AND LOAD ON A DEHYDRATING COLUMN MAY ALSO BE LESSENED IN A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT WHERE THE RECOVERED ACID IS FED FORWARD WITHOUT FURTHER WATER REMOVAL.
