10,000 tons/year ethylene chlorination method for chloroacetyl chloride

Thread Content

Project Name: 10,000 tons/year production of chloroacetyl chloride via ethylene chlorination method. Location of the project: Municipal level. Project background and construction conditions: Chloroacetyl chloride, also known as dichloroacetyl, is a reactive acylating agent and an important intermediate in organic synthesis. It possesses high reactivity and is widely used in fields such as pesticides and pharmaceuticals; it is one of the organic synthesis intermediates that has seen the fastest development in recent years, attracting considerable attention. In the coming years, industries such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and food and feed additives in our country will continue to develop, and it is expected that domestic demand for chloroacetyl chloride will increase significantly. Therefore, accelerating the construction of large-scale chloroacetyl chloride production facilities using glacial acetic acid as a raw material and the ethylene chlorination method is one of the opportunities that chlor-alkali companies should seize. Progress in project preparation: Currently, efforts are underway in areas such as research, process development, and identifying partners. Construction scale and content: Construct a facility with an annual production capacity of 10,000 tons of vinyl chloride and chloroacetyl chloride produced by the chlorination method, along with supporting equipment. Financial evaluation: Total investment amount: 40 million yuan; Amount of funds to be raised: 20 million yuan. Expected annual sales revenue: 100 million yuan; Expected annual sales profit: 35 million yuan. Mode of cooperation: Technology transfer, joint venture. Contents of cooperation: The production process involves the synthesis of divinylidene from acetic acid, followed by its reaction with chlorine in the presence of a catalyst to produce chloroacetyl chloride. The required technology must be internationally leading, the industrialization implementation plan must be feasible, the purity of the resulting products must be ≥99%, the product quality must be stable, and pollution levels must be low. The project can offer favorable cooperation conditions: it is equipped with all necessary utilities such as water, electricity, steam, and refrigeration, as well as a pipeline system for producing chlorine for use in chlorination devices.
