Abstract:
The invention relates to a crude glycerol-based product comprising glycerol alkyl ethers, to a purification process comprising a treatment of evaporative concentration, of evaporative crystallization, of distillation, of fractional distillation, of stripping, or of liquid-liquid extraction and to the use of the purified product in the manufacture of dichloropropanol.
Abstract:
Process for the manufacture of dichloropropanol in which glycerol is reacted with a chlorinating agent comprising hydrochloric acid in a liquid medium in equilibrium with a vapor phase and in which the condensation of a fraction exhibiting the composition of the vapor phase is prevented.
Abstract:
Process for preparing a chlorohydrin, wherein a polyhydroxylated aliphatic hydrocarbon whose total metal content, expressed in elemental form, is greater than or equal to 0.1 μg/kg and less than or equal to 1000 mg/kg is reacted with a chlorinating agent.
Abstract:
Process for producing a chlorohydrin by reaction between a multihydroxylated-aliphatic hydrocarbon, an ester of a multihydroxylated-aliphatic hydrocarbon, or a mixture thereof, and a chlorinating agent, according to which the multihydroxylated-aliphatic hydrocarbon, the ester of a multihydroxylated-aliphatic hydrocarbon, or the mixture thereof used contains at least one solid or dissolved metal salt, the process comprising a separation operation to remove at least part of the metal salt.

Abstract:
A process for purification of crude, 1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane includes the steps of treating a mixture of crude, 1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane and hydrogen fluoride with chlorine in the presence of a Lewis acid, and distilling to recover purified 1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane, wherein hydrogen fluoride is present during the treatment with chlorine at a ratio of at least 5% by weight with respect to the mixture of crude, 1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane and hydrogen fluoride.
Abstract:
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)
