Abstract

The given paper presents results of an experimental study of the industrial water runoff oxidation within the propylene epoxidation process carried out under supercritical fluid conditions (T=653-723 K, P=29-32 MPa) at a continuous operation installation using atmospheric oxygen as the oxidizing agent. Efficiency of the water runoff oxidation depending on the thermodynamic conditions of oxidation reaction was established. Solid residue elemental composition was determined.

Highlights

  • Modern world community is seriously concerned about the problems of natural resources depletion, and, of hydrocarbon raw materials reserves and of environmental pollution

  • The expensive molybdenum complex examined within the present work and used to accelerate the propylene epoxidation reaction acceleration in a multi-ton industrial process, after the reaction product washing is concentrated in waste water, which is subjected to thermal neutralization

  • The 5% water runoff was subjected to oxidation with a surplus of atmospheric oxygen of 100-400%, in the temperature range of T=673-873 K and at pressure of P=25 MPa
