Abstract
Abstract This article studies the thermokinetics and safety parameters of cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) manufactured in the first oxidation tower. Vent sizing package 2 (VSP2), an adiabatic calorimeter, was employed to determine reaction kinetics, the exothermic onset temperature (T0), reaction order (n), ignition runaway temperature (TC, I), etc. The n value and activation energy (Ea) of 15 mass% CHP were calculated to be 0.5 and 120.2 kJ mol−1, respectively. The heat generation rate (Qg) of 15 mass% CHP compared with hS (cooling rate) = 6.7 J min−1 K−1 of heat balance, the TS,E and the critical extinction temperature (TC, E) under 110 °C of ambient temperature (Ta) were calculated 111 and 207 °C, respectively. The Qg of 15 mass% CHP compared with hS = 0.3 J min−1 K−1 of heat balance was applied to determine the TC, I that was evaluated to be 116 °C. This article describes the best operating conditions when handling CHP, starting from the first oxidation tower.
