Ethylene oxide autoignition temperature

Catalysts such as iron oxides cause isomeriza tion of the ethylene oxide to acetaldehyde with the evolution of heat. The acetaldehyde has a much lower autoignition temperature in air than does ethylene oxide, and the two effects may lead to hot-spot ignition (190,191). [Pg.465]

The gases in the ethylene oxide reactor moved into the explosive region while being above the autoignition temperature. A violent explosion occurred, resulting in several injuries and significant plant damage. [Pg.549]
