Abstract
A process for the continuous production of an olefinic oxide such as propylene oxide by direct catalytic oxidation of an olefin with hydrogen peroxide. The process involves successive reaction, distillation, decomposition, phase, separation, condensation and distillation with recycle of various streams to provide improved catalyst life and reaction selectivity.
