PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ETHYLENE OXIDE |
| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a process for the production of ethylene oxide, comprising the steps of: producing ethylene by converting a stream comprising an oxygenate into a stream comprising ethylene and ethane; producing ethylene oxide by subjecting ethylene and ethane from the stream comprising ethylene and ethane to oxidation conditions resulting in a stream comprising ethylene oxide, unconverted ethylene and ethane; and recovering ethylene oxide from the stream comprising ethylene oxide, unconverted ethylene and ethane. |

1. A process for the production of monoethylene glycol, comprising the steps of:
a. producing ethylene by converting a stream comprising an oxygenate into a first product stream comprising ethylene and ethane through an oxygenate-to-olefins process; b. producing ethylene oxide by subjecting ethylene and ethane from the first product stream comprising ethylene and ethane to oxidation conditions resulting in a second product stream comprising ethylene oxide, unconverted ethylene and ethane; c. recovering ethylene oxide from the second product stream comprising ethylene oxide, unconverted ethylene and ethane; and d. converting the ethylene oxide to monoethylene glycol through an hydrolysis reaction. |
