A method of inhibiting fouling in distillation towers, overhead lines, reflux lines, and condensers operating in a process to manufacture and purify epichlorohydrin. This method resides in treating process streams entering or exiting such towers, lines and condensers, including feed streams, reflux streams, gaseous or liquid overhead streams, with an effective antifouling amount of a C3-C9 linear or branched alkyl substituted catechol, or mixtures thereof.
