METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF ETHYLENE OXIDE IN A MICROCHANNEL REACTOR

摘要

Method for production of ethylene oxide in a microchannel reactor, wherein an ethylene-containing material stream and an oxygen- or oxygen-source-containing material stream are fed to the microchannel reactor and the reaction to give ethylene oxide takes place in the catalyst-containing microchannel reactor. Alkyl halides are continuously fed to the microchannel reactor at a concentration of 0.3 to 50 ppm by volume with respect to the total volume stream of all material streams fed to the reactor.
