Process for the epoxidation of olefins

The invention relates to a rectifying column for extractive distillation, comprising a column main section ( ) and a raffinate section ( ) above said main section, an evaporator ( ) situated on the lower end of the column, an inlet ( ) disposed between the main section of the column and the raffinate section and a solvent inlet ( ) arranged on the top side of the raffinate section ( ) for feeding an extracting agent. According to the invention, the main section ( ) has two chambers ( ) connected in parallel. A stripping section ( ) is disposed between the bottom of the column ( ) and the main section ( ), in which concentration of the extracting agent occurs from the top down. The bottom ( ) is connected to the solvent inflow ( ) by a device ( ) for recycling the extracting agent.
