Question: Someone please help me figure out this reaction. Stream 1 (S01) and S02 enter a plug flow reactor where Peroxidation occurs. S01 contains ethylbenzene. S02
Someone please help me figure out this reaction. Stream 1 (S01) and S02 enter a plug flow reactor where Peroxidation occurs. S01 contains ethylbenzene. S02 contains Air, Hydrogen Peroxide, and water (I dont know what % of water I should he using...) Anyways, I know Ethylbenzen-Hydroperoxide is the main product leaving the reactor in S03, my problem is I dont know what other by-products are produced from this resction. Additionally, after the PFR, the products are flashed to remove O2 and N2 in the tops, but I dont know what is leaving in the bottoms of this flash (S04). I know, or im pretty certain we will still have our Ethylbenzene-hydroperoxide, but what else? Basically, I am struggling to find products and by-products in S03 and S04. Btw, this is for the hydroperoxide method in the production of propylene oxide (also produce styrene). Any help with these reactions would be greatly appreciated and will recieve a thumbs up! Thanks!!!!
