This chapter describes the conventional, the recently developed and the innovative technologies aimed at the production of propene oxide. The different routes are compared in terms of process sustainability. For each process, the reaction mechanism, the catalyst characteristics and the reactor/plant technology are described, with the aim of providing an overview of possible future implementations aimed at the development of a more sustainable chemical industry.

Abstract
This chapter describes the conventional, the recently developed and the innovative technologies aimed at the production of propene oxide. The different routes are compared in terms of process sustainability. For each process, the reaction mechanism, the catalyst characteristics and the reactor/plant technology are described, with the aim of providing an overview of possible future implementations aimed at the development of a more sustainable chemical industry.File in questo prodotto:
