The invention relates to a method for the production of 1,2-dichlorethane by direct chlorination using chlorine and ethene in which, despite low reaction temperatures during direct chlorination, reaction heat produced is nevertheless used. According to the invention, vaporous 1,2-dichloroethane obtained in said direct chlorination reactor (3) is compressed and said compressed 1,2-dichloroethane is transported to heat exchangers whereby heat is given off by said 1,2-dichloroethane. The invention also relates to a device whereby a device characterized in that a turbocompressor (4) for compressing is arranged directly after said direct chlorination reactor (3). |
