“…ε-Caprolactam is a vital precursor in the formation of Nylon-6, a recyclable form of Nylon. 207,[299][300][301] Currently the majority of caprolactam is formed through a variation of the Raschig process, where cyclohexane is converted to caprolactam with a series of metal salts and caustic reagents, creating significant amounts of ammonium sulfate waste. 301 Specifically, the formation of caprolactam is achieved using fuming sulfuric acid, which poses significant logistical and safety challenges.…”

“…Indeed, processes have been commercialized with this philosophy, most using a silicate-1 zeolite catalyst. [299][300] The preferred industrial approach has been a vapor phase process. Here the reagents are taken above their boiling points, typically > 300 o C with a solvent, which is continually passed over a bed of solid catalyst.…”
