Abstract
Process for producing a chlorinated hydrocarbon by the use of molten salts containing a multivalent metal chloride in its higher and lower valence states by oxidation of the molten salt in an oxidation reactor and use of the oxidized salt in an oxychlorination/chlorination reactor for production of chlorinated hydrocarbons wherein gaseous effluent withdrawn from the oxidation reactor is employed as lift gas for lifting the molten salts for introduction into the upper portions of the oxidation reactor and oxychlorination/chlorination reactor, with the work being provided by expansion of the oxidizer effluent. In this manner, the need for a lift gas compressor is eliminated.
