Book Synopsis Epichlorohydrin Production from Propylene - Cost Analysis - ECH E21A by : Intratec
Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Epichlorohydrin production from propylene and chlorine. The process examined is a typical dehydrochlorination process. This process involves three main steps: (i) chlorination of propylene to allyl chloride; (ii) addition of hypochlorous acid to the allyl chloride formed yielding glycerol dichlorohydrins, and (iii) treatment of the glycerol – dichlorohydrin mixture with a base, yielding Epichlorohydrin product. 99.9 wt.% Epichlorohydrin is obtained. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Rowe, C.E., 'Chlorohydrins', Chemical Processing Handbook, 1993 Keywords: 3-Chloropropene, Hypochlorous Acid, HOCl, Chlorination
