Processes for reducing the amount of a gaseous iodide-containing impurity present in a recycle gas stream used in the production of ethylene oxide, in particular an alkyl iodide impurity, are provided. Processes for producing ethylene oxide, ethylene carbonate and/or ethylene glycol, and associated reaction systems are similarly provided.

Disclosed is a novel catalyst for producing a methanol precursor. The use of the catalyst enables the production of a methanol precursor and methanol with high efficiency under low temperature and low pressure conditions. Also disclosed are a methanol precursor produced using the catalyst and methanol produced using the methanol precursor.

Process to recover NaOH, polyester monomers, dyes and byproducts from an alkaline depolymerization liquor resulting from a depolymerization reaction of polyester in a blend textile. The process comprises concentrating the liquor solution in a mixture comprising water, solid NaOH, dyes and other liquid products, extracting ethylene glycol from the mixture, dissolving solid NaOH, recovering solid dyes and recovering terephthalic acid.
