Ethylene glycol production By PhD Emaad T. Bakir Ethylene glycol has become one of the worlds important industrial chemicals. This compound is produced from the hydration of EO which may produce in addition to Ethylene glycol diethylene glycols and triethylene glycols. Since EO is very reactive and hazardous to handle and ship .most of Ethylene glycols plants are located within pipelining distances. Process chemistry: The chemistry of hydration id quite simple .it consist of reaction of EO with water to form monoethylene glycols (MEG) followed by the reaction of additional oxide with glycols to form glycols. The reactions are as follows: The most important variable affecting the glycols distribution is the water to-EO ratio. In commercial plants, the production of DEG and TEG can be reduced by using large amount of excess water.
