Phenols have variety of compounds, with the most important ones incl. phenol (carbonic acid), and cresol (o-cresol, m-cresol and p-cresol); among them, phenol is mainly used as the feedstock for di-phenol A production and phenol formaldehyde production; o-cresol is widely used in the synthesis of resin, pesticide, medicine, perfume, dyes, antioxidant and etc. M-cresol is an very important feedstock for the production of Vitamin E. P-cresol is widely applied in the synthesis of BHT, the most employed antioxidant in the world.SL-TECH offers the technology of crude phenol purification with phenol either from coking phenol, gasified phenol or alkylation liquid.
