Versuchsvorschrift

In another embodiment, the process of the present invention may be carried out using two continuously overflowing stirred reaction vessels and one decanter. In this embodiment, the glycerin is nitrated to 1,3-dinitroglycerin in the first reaction vessel. The overflow is reacted with excess base in the second reaction vessel to neutralize the excess nitric acid and form glycidyl nitrate from the 1,3-dinitroglycerin. The overflow from the second reaction vessel flows into the decanter, which separates the immiscible organic phase from the basic aqueous solution.
