Abstract
An apparatus for manufacturing dichlorohydrin, which is suitable for generating dichlorohydrin through performing a reaction of glycerol and hydrogen chloride solution in an environment having catalyst. The apparatus for manufacturing dichlorohydrin comprises at least one reactor, a thermally coupled distillation apparatus, a first decanter and a first water supply device. The thermally coupled distillation apparatus is connected to the at least one reactor. The first decanter is connected to a top portion of the thermally coupled distillation apparatus, to form a first aqueous product and a first organic product comprising dichlorohydrin in the first decanter. The first water supply device is directly connected to the first decanter.
