METHOD FOR OBTAINING PURE BUTYL ACRYLATE FROM RAW BUTYL ACRYLATE BY DISTILLATION, WHEREIN BUTYL STANDS FOR N-BUTYL OR ISOBUTYL

The invention relates to a method for obtaining pure butyl acrylate from raw butyl acrylate by distillation, wherein butyl stands for n-butyl or isobutyl, characterized in that the method is carried out in a dividing wall column (1) having dividing built-in components and an evaporator (7), in which dividing wall column a dividing wall (8) is arranged in the column longitudinal direction in such a way that an upper common column region (9), a lower common column region (14), a feed part (10, 12) having a side feed point (2) and a removal part (11, 13) having a side removal point (3) are formed, the column has a number of theoretical separating stages in the range of 20 to 80, wherein the number of theoretical separating stages of the dividing wall column (1) refers to the sum of the theoretical separating stages in the common upper column region (9), the common lower column region (14) and the feed part (10, 12), the side feed point (2) for the raw butyl acrylate is arranged at a theoretical separating stage in the region beginning at least two theoretical separating stages above the bottommost theoretical separating stage and ending at least two theoretical separating stages below the topmost theoretical separating stage, the side removal point (3) for the pure butyl acrylate is arranged at a theoretical separating stage in the region beginning at least two theoretical separating stages above the bottommost theoretical separating stage and ending at least two theoretical separating stages below the topmost theoretical separating stage, and the dividing wall (8) is arranged in the column in the region beginning at least one theoretical separating stage above the bottommost theoretical separating stage and ending at least one theoretical separating stage below the topmost theoretical separating stage, wherein the liquid amount ratio at the upper end of the dividing wall (8) to the enriching section (10) and to the stripping section (11) of the column is set in a range of 1:0.2 to 1:5.
