发明名称 System and process for producing an oxirane
摘要 Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a system and a process for producing an oxirane. For the various embodiments, the system and process of the present disclosure includes: a reaction vessel having a reaction mixture of an olefin, a peroxide compound, a solvent mixture with an alcohol and a non-reactive co-solvent, a solid phase, and reaction products of the reaction mixture, where the reaction products include an oxirane; a separation vessel coupled to the reaction vessel, where an effluent of the reaction mixture and reaction products from the reaction vessel separates in the separation vessel into a liquid aqueous phase and a liquid organic phase; and an extraction vessel coupled to an outlet of the separation vessel, where the liquid aqueous phase taken from the outlet of the separation vessel mixes with an extraction solvent to extract oxirane from the aqueous phase.

主权项 1. A system, comprising: a reaction vessel having a multiple liquid phase reaction mixture of an olefin, a peroxide compound, a solvent mixture with an alcohol and a non-reactive co-solvent, a solid phase, and reaction products of the reaction mixture, where the reaction products include an oxirane; an exchange vessel holding a solid support with active sites to bind iron ions, the exchange vessel having an inlet that carries an organic stream including the olefin and iron ions, where the active sites on the solid support remove iron ions from the organic stream to provide an iron ion concentration of less than one weight percent based on the total weight of the organic stream, and where the exchange vessel has an outlet that connects to the reaction vessel that receives the organic stream having the olefin and the iron ion concentration of less than one weight percent; a separation vessel having a first outlet, wherein the separation vessel is coupled to the reaction vessel, where an effluent of the multiple liquid phase reaction mixture and reaction products from the reaction vessel separates in the separation vessel into a liquid aqueous phase and a liquid organic phase; and an extraction vessel comprising an extraction solvent capable of extracting oxirane from the liquid aqueous phase, the extraction vessel coupled to the first outlet of the separation vessel, wherein the liquid aqueous phase taken from the outlet of the separation vessel mixes with the extraction solvent to extract oxirane from the liquid aqueous phase.
