Abstract
The invention pertains to a process for the production of monochloroacetic acid from chlorine and acetic acid in the presence of a catalyst by reactive distillation. The process and the required reactive distillation apparatus is much less complex than conventional reactors and yields a monochloroacetic acid product having a low content of over-chlorinated products.
