HPPO Process: Eco-Friendly Propylene Oxide by Mary Grace Velitario is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This article discusses various processes for producing propylene oxide and focuses on the hydrogen peroxide-to-propylene oxide (HPPO) process. The HPPO process uses a titanium-substituted silica zeolite catalyst called TS-1 to directly oxidize propylene with hydrogen peroxide without any coproducts. This makes the HPPO process economically and environmentally superior to traditional chlorine-based processes. The article provides background on propylene oxide markets, compares existing production methods, an
