Generic Phosgene Process
Short Name
1st Reactor
Description
Carbon Monoxide and Dichlorine are mixed in stoichiometric proportions, but the CO may be employed in slight excess, to ensure complete Reaction of the Dichlorine: the unreacted CO may be recycled to the Reaction Zone. After mixing, the Gases are passed to the Primary Reactor (usually of steel or lead-lined construction) containing the Activated Charcoal Catalyst. In normal circumstances, better than 99% of the Dichlorine is converted to Phosgene at this stage of the process.
