Abstract
Method for preventing disturbances in hydrocarbon oxidation reaction systems by rapid lowering of the temperature and/or pressure in the reaction system by means of intensive introduction of water into the system.
Claims5
A method for the prevention of disturbances and effects of disturbances in a reaction system for the oxidation of hydrocarbons in the liquid phase under pressure with oxygen containing gases which comprises lowering in the system, the temperature and pressure in the reactor and/or other apparatus of the reaction system by introduction of water in an intensive way at a rate and volume sufficient to lower the temperature of the hydrocarbon to at least 5.degree. C. lower than the boiling point of its hydroazeotrope under atmospheric pressure, or to a temperature at which there does not occur an uncontrolled decomposition of hydroperoxides, while simultaneously preventing a momentary pressure increases due to hydroazeotrope evaporation.
