ABSTRACT:
Ethylene oxide is formed by the oxidation of ethylene. An ethylene-containing gas is contacted with an oxidation catalyst deposited on the surface of a solid electrolyte while an oxygen-containing gas contacted with a second catalyst capable of dissociating oxygen gas to oxygen ion deposited upon a second surface of the solid electrolyte. Oxygen ions are transported under a positive voltage applied through the solid electrolyte to react with ethylene to form ethylene oxide.
