There are 4 main prevailing processes for ethyl acetate production, i.e. Direct Esterification Process, Acetaldehyde Condensation Process, Ethanol Dehydration Process and Acetic Acid-Ethylene Addition Process. Each process has its advantages and its applicable services. Our process is based on reactive-distillation esterification, which is mature, low costing and suitable for those with acetic acid feedstock.
