Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Propylene Oxide (PO) production from chemical grade (CG) propylene and ethylbenzene. The process examined is similar to LyondellBasell process. In this process, ethylbenzene is oxidized to produce ethylbenzene hydroperoxide, which reacts with propylene to produce Propylene Oxide. Styrene is generated as by-product in the process. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Propylene Oxide", Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 7th edition Keywords: Propene, Ethylbenzol, Oxidation, Epoxidation, EBHP, Phenylethene, POSM
