METHOD OF PRODUCING CHLORINATED HYDROCARBONS BY CATALYTIC OXYCHLORINATION

摘要

Process for the catalytic oxychlorination of hydrocarbons, in which the chlorine comes at least partially from the ammonium chloride, characterized in that the gaseous mixture containing the hydrocarbons, the ammonium chloride and the ammonium chloride are contacted for periods at least equal to one second. Molecular oxygen, at temperatures between 200 and 380º c, with catalysts whose support is essentially composed of silica and magnesia and whose catalytically active part consists of copper chloride and an alkali metal chloride.
