System and method for producing diester

Abstract

The system and method for producing diester are provided. The system includes a first distillation unit reacting a dicarboxylic acid with an alcohol to produce a first gaseous mixture, a first cooling unit connected to the first distillation unit and cooling the first gaseous mixture into a first liquid mixture, a second distillation unit connected to the first cooling unit and separating the first liquid mixture into a second gaseous mixture and a second liquid mixture, and a liquid-liquid extraction unit connected to the second distillation unit and separating the second liquid mixture into an aqueous-rich mixture and an organic-rich mixture from which the diester is obtained.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
