| Title | Continuous process for the manufacture of Azelaic acid - an API and Industrial Additive |
| Knowhow is available for | Best ever catalyst-free syntheses of azelaic acid by ozonolysis of oleic acid without the need for cryogenic conditions or high temperatures, making the process highly scalable. |
| Summary | |
| Advantages | 1. Current technology can be used for oxidative cleavage of other unsaturated fatty acids.
2. 100% conversion of oleic acid with more than 99% pure azaleic acid and pelorganic acid.
3. The process is catalyst free and co-oxidant free, making the process easily scalable at an industrial scale.
4. Reaction time of 2-60 minutes
5. Continuous flow process also shown
6. In-line quenching of ozonoids and safe process
7. Complete recovery and reuse of solvent. The reused solvent mixture was used at least 3 times with no detectable change in the yield, making it a much greener process.
8. No toxic effluents come out during or after the reaction, and so no further treatment is needed |
