\nThe direct epoxidation of mixed ethene and propene feedstocks using hydrogen peroxide over a titanium silicalite (TS-1)
\ncatalyst was investigated within a continuous trickle bed reactor operating in laboratory scale. Methanol was employed as the
\nreaction solvent. This study aimed to streamline the epoxidation process by obviating the need for prior separation of alkenes,
\nthereby enhancing process efciency. An extensive array of operational parameters was explored in a trickle bed reactor,
\nencompassing experimental parameters such as temperature, total pressure, hydrogen peroxide concentration, liquid fow rate,
\nand gas composition. In contrast to prior investigations involving separate ethene and propene epoxidation, this study revealed
\na reduction in epoxide selectivity. The principal by-products observed were methoxy species, formed through the interaction
\nbetween the epoxide and methanol, resulting in a ring-opening reaction. The infuence of water on this ring-opening process
\nwas negligible. Notably, the tunability of the system was demonstrated, highlighting low temperature and elevated partial
\nethene pressure as pivotal factors for augmentingthe epoxide selectivity. The fndings suggest that binary olefn mixtures
\nexhibit diminished selectivity but improved stability. This behavior is potentially linked to the olefn solubility in methanol,
\nor alterations in the surface species concentrations, typically associated with catalyst activity variations. These insights
\nofer a valuable foundation for understanding and optimizing the direct epoxidation of mixed ethene and propene feedstock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
