METHOD OF REDUCING THE VALUE OF AN ALKYLENE OXIDE PRODUCTION PARAMETER IN A PROCESS OF MAKING AN ALKYLENE OXIDE USING A HIGH EFFICIENCY CATALYST

摘要

Methods of reducing the value of an alkylene oxide production parameter (such as alkylene oxide production rate) in a process of making an alkylene oxide by reacting an alkylene and oxygen over a high efficiency catalyst are shown and described. One method comprises reducing the concentration of oxygen in the reactor feed gas to reduce the value of the alkylene oxide production parameter.
