Process for manufacturing epichlorohydrin, comprising: (a) preparing epichlorohydrin to obtain a mixture comprising epichlorohydrin and water; (b) subjecting the mixture obtained in step (a) to a liquid-liquid phase separation to separate at least one first fraction (I) comprising most of the epichlorohydrin which was contained in the mixture before separation and at least one second fraction (II) comprising most of the water which was contained in the mixture before separation; and (c) drawing off the fraction (I) and the fraction (II); wherein the volume VI of the fraction (I) obtained in step (b) expressed in m3, the volume VII of the fraction (II) obtained in step (b) expressed in m3, the draw-off flow rate DI of the fraction (I) in step (c) expressed in m3/h, and the draw-off flow rate IN of the fraction (II) in step (c) expressed in m3/h, correspond to the following formula: (VII/VI)
