Summary
-
1.
Batches of soybean oil weighing up to 54 pounds have been chlorinated withtert-butyl hypochlorite in conventional pilot-plant equipment.
-
2.
The chlorinated oil was dehydrochlorinated in an all-glass apparatus designed for continuous operation. Excellent results were obtained when chlorinated oil was passed through this apparatus at a rate of 1.5 liters per hour.
-
3.
The properties of the dehydrochlorinated oil were equivalent to those of oils previously obtained by laboratory procedures.
