Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019234545A1] Methods for the storage and/or transportation of an auto-oxidizable alcohol in commercial quantities and methods for distilling an auto-oxidizable alcohol are disclosed. For storage and/or transportation of an auto-oxidizable alcohol, a reducing agent is added in the alcohol to reduce oxidized alcohol products, thereby improving the quality of the auto-oxidizable alcohol. For distilling an auto-oxidizable alcohol, a reducing agent is combined in the feed stream of the distillation column for the auto-oxidizable alcohol to reduce the oxidized alcohol products and prevent oxidation process, resulting in higher quality of the distilled alcohol product.
