Abstract
Selective production of a dialkanolamine is attained by controlling the volume preceding the entrance to a catalyst bed and the temperature prevailing under respectively fixed levels subsequent. to the mixture of an alkylene oxide thereby repressing a reaction occurring in the absence of a catalyst and curbing the formation of trialkanolamine. The reactant fluid is prevented from generating a channeling by disposing an exportable structure in a reactor thereby creating the state of a false shell-and-tube type reactor. The reaction is initiated with the inlet temperature set at a higher level than the prescribed level and the alkylene oxide concentration set at a lower level than the prescribed level and thereafter the inlet temperature and the alkylene oxide concentration are gradually changed toward the respectively prescribed levels.
