Sowopropanol, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-isopropyl alcohol noma i-2-propanol, ingamakhemikhali wezimboni asetshenziswa kakhulu anezinhlelo zokusebenza eziningi. Ngaphezu kokusetshenziswa ekukhiqizweni kwamakhemikhali ahlukahlukene, i-sopropanol nayo isetshenziswa njenge-solvent kanye ne-ejenti yokuhlanza. Ngakho-ke, kubaluleke kakhulu ukutadisha ukuthi i-shopropanol inobungani bemvelo. Kulesi sihloko, sizokwenza ukuhlaziya okuphelele ngokusekelwe kwidatha efanele nolwazi.

Okokuqala, kudingeka sicabangele inqubo yokukhiqiza ye-isopropanol. Itholakala ikakhulu nge-hydration ye-propylene, okuyinto etholakala kabanzi etholakalayo eluhlaza. Inqubo yokukhiqiza ayihileli noma yikuphi ukusabela okulimazayo kwemvelo kanye nokusetshenziswa kwezinto ezahlukahlukene ezisizayo kuncane, ngakho-ke inqubo yokukhiqiza ye-isopropanol inobungani bemvelo.

Okulandelayo, kudingeka sicabangele ukusetshenziswa kwe-isopropanol. Njenge-solvent enhle kakhulu ye-organic kanye ne-ejenti yokuhlanza, i-sopropanol inezinhlobonhlobo zezicelo. Ingasetshenziselwa izingxenye zomshini jikelele, ukuhlanza ama-elekthronikhi, ukuhlanza kwemishini yezokwelapha, nezinye izinkambu. Kulezi zicelo, i-sopropanol ayikhiqizi ukungcoliswa okubalulekile kwemvelo ngesikhathi sokusetshenziswa. Ngasikhathi sinye, i-sopropanol nayo ine-biodegrade ephezulu, engaboshelwa kalula ngama-microorganisms emvelweni. Ngakho-ke, ngokuya ngokusetshenziswa, i-sopropanol inobungani obuhle bezemvelo.

Kodwa-ke, kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi i-sopropanol inezinto ezithile ezicasulayo nezivuthayo, ezingaletha izingozi ezingaba khona emzimbeni womuntu kanye nemvelo. Lapho usebenzisa i-sopropanol, kufanele kuthathwe izinyathelo ezifanele ukuqinisekisa ukusetshenziswa kwayo okuphephile futhi kugweme ukulimala okungadingekile emvelweni.

Ngamafuphi, kususelwa ekuhlaziyweni kwemininingwane efanele kanye nolwazi, singathola isiphetho sokuthi i-sopropanol inobungane obuhle bezemvelo. Inqubo yayo yokukhiqiza inobungane ngemvelo, futhi ukusetshenziswa kwayo akuvezi ukungcoliswa okubalulekile emvelweni. Kodwa-ke, kufanele kuthathwe izinyathelo ezifanele lapho ziyisebenzisa ukugwema izingozi ezingaba khona emzimbeni womuntu kanye nemvelo.
