Figure 2.1 - The device for the production of
ethane (ethylene)
The reaction of the formation of ethane is in two
stages. At the first stage, ethyl sulfate acid is formed:
t o
CH CH OH + HOSO H CH CH OSO H + H O

In the second stage, when heated to 170 ° С,
ethylsulphatic acid decomposes with the release of the ethen
by the reaction:
