Epalles

A further narrowing of the molecular weight distribution in the fatty alcohol mixture of the Alfol process was realized in the so-called Epal process of the Ethyl Corporation [38a,44]. In this process the reaction product of the growth reaction is in a first step transalkylated by a C4-C10 olefin mixture ... [Pg.22]

The olefins and aluminum alkyls are separated by distillation. The aluminum trialkyl obtained in the second transalkylation step contains predominantly C12-C18 alkyl groups and is subsequently treated in the same way as in the Alfol process. Table 10 shows the different alcohol mixtures of the Alfol and Epal process. A disadvantage of the Epal alcohols is their higher degree of branch-... [Pg.22]

Invented by K. Ziegler at the Max Planck Institut fur Kohlenforschung, Miihlheim/Ruhr, Germany. Operated in the United States by Conoco since 1962, and in Germany by Condea Chemie since 1964. See also Epal. [Pg.17]

Epal A process for making linear aliphatic alcohols by reacting ethylene with triethyl aluminum and oxidizing the products. Similar to Alfol, but incorporating a trans-alkylation stage that permits a wider range of products to be made. Developed by Ethyl Corporation (now Albermarle Corporation) and operated in the United States since 1964. [Pg.101]

The aluminum trialkoxides are then hydrolyzed with dilute sulfuric acid in the Ethyl process (23)- This forms free alcohol and an aqueous aluminum sulfate solution which are separated by phase split. The aqueous aluminum sulfate is sold. Product alcohols are washed with caustic to remove traces of acid, dried, and fed to conventional distillation train. The product alcohols are sold by Ethyl under the trade name of EPAL alcohols. [Pg.104]

The Ethyl EPAL process is more complex than the Conoco ALFOL alcohol process. This complexity permits the flexibility of producing both a-olefins and alcohols from the same processing unit as well as having considerable control over the product homolog distributions. Penalties paid for this flexibility are increased capital cost for a more complex process and production of some branched alcohols. [Pg.104]
