Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A process for recovering isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde from a stream of crude isoprenol containing isoprenol, water and formaldehyde, the process comprising subjecting the stream of crude isoprenol or an isoprenol containing fraction thereof to distillation in a low-boiler separation tower operated at a pressure of 2.5 bara or higher to obtain a distillate stream containing aqueous formaldehyde and a bottoms stream containing isoprenol. The process of the invention allows for obtaining isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde. Further provided is a plant for recovering isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde from a stream of crude isoprenol containing isoprenol, water and formaldehyde, the plant comprising a first low-boiler separation tower, a second low-boiler separation tower, and a finishing tower.
