The application discloses a process for preparing
epichlorohydrin, which comprises the following steps: passing a homogeneous mixture containing chloropropene,
hydrogen peroxide, polyhydric
alcohol and ionic surfactant into a
fixed bed reactor to react, and obtaining a product containing
epichlorohydrin. Compared with the traditional method, the reaction by-product is less, the product after
hydrogen peroxide reaction is water, the ionic surfactant and the polyhydric
alcohol are added to promote the mixing of the organic phase and the aqueous phase into a homogeneous phase, improve the selectivity, a large amount of
solvent does not need to be added,
solvent evaporation recovery and other processes are avoided, the process is energy-saving and environment-friendly, the equipment process is simple, the yield and the selectivity are high, the process is suitable for large-scale production in industry, has great
economic benefits,
solvent evaporation and
recovery are not needed, is beneficial to industrial production amplification, the equipment maintenance cost is low, the
system cost is relatively low, the environmental
pollution is small, the operation is simple, the process is easy to repeat, and the
epichlorohydrin can be efficiently produced.
