<p>Processes for decreasing the chlorine to carbon ratio for halogenated hydrocarbons containing chlorine and from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, in the presence of a catalyst are disclosed. The processes are each characterized by employing a catalyst comprising ruthenium on a support of (i) fluorided alumina, (ii) aluminum fluoride, or (iii) fluorides of Zn, Mg, Ca, Ba, Y, Sm, Eu and/or Dy. Also disclosed are multiphase catalyst compositions of ruthenium supported on fluorides of Zn, Mg, Ca, Ba, Y, Sm, Eu and/or Dy.</p> |
