About this document

Ethylene Glycol Production Process Overview by Elangovan is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes the production of ethylene glycol. Ethylene glycol is produced by oxidizing ethylene at high temperatures in the presence of a silver oxide catalyst to form ethylene oxide, which is then hydrated to produce ethylene glycol along with di- and tri-ethylene glycols as co-products. The key equipment used in the process are a pressurizing vessel, plug flow reactor, evaporator, and distillation column along with auxiliary equipment such as pumps, heaters, and condensers.
