Problems solved by technology

The chlorohydrin method uses propylene and chlorine gas as raw materials to obtain propylene oxide after chlorohydrinization, saponification, and refining processes. However, a large amount of chlorine-containing wastewater is produced during the production process, which pollutes the environment and severely corrodes the equipment.
The co-oxidation method is divided into ethylbenzene hydroperoxide method (PO / SM method), isobutane hydroperoxide method (PO / TBA method) and cumene hydroperoxide method (CHP method) according to different raw materials. It overcomes the shortcomings of the chlorohydrin method such as pollution and corrosion, but the process is long, the investment is large, and there are many co-products. Due to the many co-products, the production of propylene oxide is affected to a certain extent
The direct oxidation method is propylene and H 2 o 2 In the presence of a special titanium-silicon catalyst, the direct reaction generates propylene oxide. The advantages of this process are no co-production products, simple process, low investment cost and environmental protection. The disadvantage is that H 2 o 2 The high cost and inconvenient transportation of large quantities require the construction of H 2 o 2 device
