The invention relates to a method for separating trioxane from an inlet flow (I) consisting of formaldehyde, trioxane and water. Said method consists in a) preparing an inlet flow (I), which contains formaldehyde as the main component and trioxane and water as auxiliary components, b) feeding the inlet flow (I), a return flow (V) and a return flow (VII), containing formaldehyde as the main component and trioxane and water auxiliary components, into a first distillation step and distilling it at a pressure of between 0.1 to 2.5 bars, thus enabling a flow (II), which contains formaldehyde as the main component and water as the auxiliary component, and a flow (III), which contains trioxane as the main component and water and formaldehyde as the auxiliary components, and a flow (X), which contains water, trioxane and formaldehyde to be obtained, c) distilling the flow (III), optionally after separating materials at a low-boiling point from the flow (III) in a low-boiling separation step and in a second distillation step at a pressure of between 0.2 to 17. 5 bars, whereby the pressure in the second distillation step is 0.1 to 15 bars higher that the pressure in the first distillation step. A flow (IV) is obtained which is essentially made of trioxane, and also a return flow (V), which contains trioxane as the main component and water and formaldehyde as the auxiliary components, d) feeding the flow (X) and optionally a flow (IX), which contains water as the main component, into a third distillation step and distilling it at a pressure of between 1 to 10 bars, whereby a flow (VI), which is essentially made of water, and a return flow (VII), which contains formaldehyde as the main component and water and trioxane as the auxiliary components, are obtained.

L'invention concerne un procédé de séparation de trioxane d'un flux de départ I de formaldéhyde, de trioxane et d'eau, consistant a) à employer un flux de départ I contenant du formaldéhyde en tant que composant principal et du trioxane et de l'eau en tant que composants secondaires; b) à introduire le flux de départ I, un flux de retour V et un flux de retour VII, contenant du formaldéhyde en tant que composant principal et du trioxane et de l'eau en tant que composants secondaires, dans un étage de distillation et à distiller ces flux à une pression de 0,1 à 2,5 bar, de manière à obtenir un flux II contenant du formaldéhyde en tant que composant principal et de l'eau en tant que composant secondaire, un flux III contenant du trioxane en tant que composant principal et de l'eau et du formaldéhyde en tant que composants secondaires, et un flux X contenant de l'eau, du trioxane et du formaldéhyde; c) à distiller le flux III dans un deuxième étage de distillation à une pression de 0,2 à 17,5 bar, éventuellement après séparation d'éléments à point d'ébullition faible dans un étage de séparation d'éléments à point d'ébullition faible, la pression du deuxième étage de distillation étant supérieure de 0,1 à 15 bar à la pression du premier étage de distillation, de manière à obtenir un flux IV essentiellement composé de trioxane et le flux de retour V contenant du trioxane en tant que composant principal et de l'eau et du formaldéhyde en tant que composants secondaires; et d) à introduire le flux X et éventuellement un flux IX contenant de l'eau en tant que composant principal, dans un troisième étage de distillation et à distiller ces flux à une pression de 1 à 10 bar, de manière à obtenir un flux VI essentiellement composé d'eau et un flux de retour VII contenant du formaldéhyde en tant que composant principal et de l'eau et du trioxane en tant que composants secondaires.
