PRODUCTION PROCESS OF CHLORINE

摘要

An improved process is provided for the production of chlorine. In a fluidized-bed reactor having a specific equivalent diameter and made of a material with a particular iron content, hydrogen chloride and oxygen are reacted in particular gas volumes and at specific molar ratio, superficial velocity, temperature and pressure in the presence of a catalyst composed principally of a chromium oxide and having a specific particle size distribution. The catalyst is filled in a specific amount in terms of catalyst layer height at rest. The catalyst can retain its high activity.
