Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Formaldehyde production from methanol The process examined is a conventional silver-catalyzed process with methanol recycle. In this process, methanol is converted to Formaldehyde over a silver catalyst. The reaction product is distilled for methanol removal and recycle. The final product obtained is Formalin, a 37 wt% Formaldehyde solution. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Formalin, silver catalyst, Uhde Inventa Fischer, EMS, formaldehyde solution, incomplete conversion
