Okiside ya propylene ni ubwoko bwibikoresho byingenzi bya chimique nabahuza, bikoreshwa cyane mugukora polyeri polyole, polyester polyole, polyurethane, polyester, plastike, plasitike, surfactants nizindi nganda. Kugeza ubu, umusaruro wa oxyde ya propylene ugabanijwemo ubwoko butatu: synthesis ya chimique, synthesis catalitike ya enzyme na fermentation ya biologiya. Uburyo butatu bufite umwihariko wabwo hamwe nuburyo bugaragara. Muri iyi nyandiko, tuzasesengura uko ibintu bimeze ndetse niterambere ryiterambere rya tekinoroji ya propylene oxyde, cyane cyane ibiranga ibyiza nuburyo butatu bwuburyo bwo gukora, kandi tugereranye uko ibintu bimeze mubushinwa.

Mbere ya byose, uburyo bwa synthesis ya chimique ya propylene oxyde nuburyo gakondo, bufite ibyiza byikoranabuhanga rikuze, inzira yoroshye nigiciro gito. Ifite amateka maremare kandi yagutse yo gukoresha. Byongeye kandi, uburyo bwa synthèse chimique burashobora kandi gukoreshwa mugukora ibindi bikoresho byingenzi bya chimique n’umuhuza, nka okiside ya Ethylene, oxyde ya butylene na okiside ya styrene. Nyamara, ubu buryo kandi bufite ibibi bimwe. Kurugero, catalizator ikoreshwa muribisanzwe usanga ihindagurika kandi ikangirika, ibyo bikaba byangiza ibikoresho no kwangiza ibidukikije. Byongeye kandi, gahunda yo kubyaza umusaruro igomba gukoresha ingufu n’amazi menshi, bizamura igiciro cy’umusaruro. Kubwibyo, ubu buryo ntibukwiriye kubyara umusaruro munini mubushinwa.

Icya kabiri, enzyme catalitike synthesis nuburyo bushya bwakozwe mumyaka yashize. Ubu buryo bukoresha enzymes nka catalizator kugirango uhindure propylene muri okiside ya propylene. Ubu buryo bufite ibyiza byinshi. Kurugero, ubu buryo bufite igipimo kinini cyo guhinduka no guhitamo enzyme ya catalizator; ifite umwanda muke no gukoresha ingufu nke; irashobora gukorwa mubihe byoroheje byitwara; irashobora kandi kubyara ibindi bikoresho byingenzi bya chimique hamwe nabahuza muguhindura catalizator. Byongeye kandi, ubu buryo bukoresha ibinyabuzima bidashobora kwangirika bidafite uburozi nkibisubizo byumuti cyangwa ibihe bidafite imbaraga kugirango bikore neza kandi bigabanye ingaruka z’ibidukikije. Nubwo ubu buryo bufite ibyiza byinshi, haracyari ibibazo bimwe bigomba gukemurwa. Kurugero, igiciro cya catalizike ya enzyme ni kinini, bizamura igiciro cyumusaruro; umusemburo wa enzyme biroroshye guhindurwa cyangwa guhagarikwa mubikorwa bya reaction; mubyongeyeho, ubu buryo buracyari murwego rwa laboratoire kurubu. Kubwibyo, ubu buryo bukeneye ubushakashatsi niterambere kugirango bikemure ibyo bibazo mbere yuko bikoreshwa mubikorwa byinganda.

Hanyuma, uburyo bwa fermentation biologiya nuburyo bushya bwakozwe mumyaka yashize. Ubu buryo bukoresha mikorobe nkibikoresho byo guhindura propylene muri okiside ya propylene. Ubu buryo bufite ibyiza byinshi. Kurugero, ubu buryo burashobora gukoresha umutungo ushobora kuvugururwa nkimyanda yubuhinzi nkibikoresho fatizo; ifite umwanda muke no gukoresha ingufu nke; irashobora gukorwa mubihe byoroheje byitwara; irashobora kandi kubyara ibindi bikoresho byingenzi bya chimique nabahuza muguhindura mikorobe. Byongeye kandi, ubu buryo bukoresha ibinyabuzima bidashobora kwangirika bidafite uburozi nkibisubizo byumuti cyangwa ibihe bidafite imbaraga kugirango bikore neza kandi bigabanye ingaruka z’ibidukikije. Nubwo ubu buryo bufite ibyiza byinshi, haracyari ibibazo bimwe bigomba gukemurwa. Kurugero, catalizike ya microorganism igomba guhitamo no kugenzurwa; igipimo cyo guhinduka no guhitamo mikorobe ya catalizator ni mike; bigomba gukomeza kwigwa uburyo bwo kugenzura ibipimo ngenderwaho kugirango habeho imikorere ihamye no gukora neza; ubu buryo bukeneye kandi ubushakashatsi niterambere mbere yuko bushobora gukoreshwa mubyiciro byinganda.

Mu gusoza, nubwo uburyo bwa synthesis ya chimique bufite amateka maremare kandi afite amahirwe menshi yo kuyashyira mu bikorwa, ifite ibibazo bimwe na bimwe nko guhumana no gukoresha ingufu nyinshi. Enzyme catalitike ya synthesis hamwe nuburyo bwa fermentation biologiya nuburyo bushya hamwe n’umwanda muke no gukoresha ingufu nkeya, ariko baracyakeneye ubushakashatsi niterambere mbere yuko bikoreshwa mubikorwa byinganda. Byongeye kandi, kugira ngo tugere ku musaruro munini wa oxyde ya propylene mu Bushinwa mu bihe biri imbere, dukwiye gushimangira ishoramari R&D muri ubu buryo kugira ngo barusheho kugira ubukungu bwiza ndetse n’icyizere cyo gushyira mu bikorwa mbere yuko umusaruro munini ugerwaho.
