Facing the Hazard of Biphasic, Unstable, Highly Exothermic Process: the Case of Epoxidation of Vegetable Oils
Vegetable oils are epoxidized by peroxy- acid in the presence of mineral catalysts. Besides, the risk of thermal explosion due to the decomposition of reactants (hydrogen peroxides and peroxyacids) is very high. This contribution examines the hazards of epoxidation and explores different possibility...
