PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF 2,3,3,3-TETRAFLUOROPROPENE
The present invention relates to a process for the production of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene comprising the stages: i) in a first reactor, bringing 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene into contact with hydrofluoric acid in the gas phase in the presence of a catalyst, in order to produce a stream A compri...

Summary: | The present invention relates to a process for the production of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene comprising the stages: i) in a first reactor, bringing 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene into contact with hydrofluoric acid in the gas phase in the presence of a catalyst, in order to produce a stream A comprising 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, HF and unreacted 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene; and ii) in a second reactor, bringing hydrofluoric acid into contact, in the gas phase in the presence or absence of a catalyst, with at least one chlorinated compound selected from the group consisting of 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane, 2,3-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoropropane, 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene and 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene, in order to produce a stream B comprising 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene, characterized in that the stream A obtained in stage i) feeds said second reactor used for stage ii); and in that the pressure at the inlet of said first reactor of stage i) is greater than the pressure at the inlet of said second reactor of stage ii). |
