Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009077415A1] Disclosed is a method for producing polyoxymethylene homopolymers or copolymers (7) by homopolymerizing or copolymerizing trioxane, starting from methanol (1) that is oxidized in a first reactor of a first production system (A) such that an aqueous formaldehyde-containing stream (2) is obtained that is fed to a second production system (B) in which pure trioxane (6) is obtained. In said method, low-boiling fractions (5) are separated by distillation, and the pure trioxane (6) is fed to a third production system (C) in which the pure trioxane (6) is homopolymerized or copolymerized to obtain polyoxymethylene homopolymers or copolymers (7). The disclosed method is characterized in that the stream of low-boiling fractions (5) is recycled from the column (K 2) separating low-boiling fractions into the inlet of the first reactor in the first production system (A).
