Development and application of YS silver catalysts for ethylene epoxidation

摘要

Ethylene oxide (EO) is an important organic chemical material, and Silver catalyst is an important petrochemical catalyst and is regarded as the core of EO/EG production process. The catalyst's performance is the major factor that directly determines the economic efficiency of commercial production of ethylene oxide. In this paper, we will introduce the development and application of YS silver catalysts developed by Beijing Research Institute of Chemical Industry, SINOPEC.
