FIELD: organic chemistry, chemical technology.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method for preparing vinyl chloride monomer. Method involves generating outlet flow from reactor by catalytic interaction in common ethane, ethylene, oxygen and at least one source of chlorine taken among hydrogen chloride, chlorine or chlorohydrocarbon wherein the mole ratio of indicated ethane to indicated ethylene is in the range from 0.02 to 50. At this stage of catalytic interaction method involves using a catalyst comprising component of rare-earth material under condition that catalyst has no iron and copper practically and under additional condition that when component of rare-earth material represents cerium then catalyst comprises additionally at least one more component of rare-earth material being except for cerium. Indicated outlet flow from reactor is quenched to form flow of crude product that doesn't comprise hydrogen chloride practically. Flow of crude product is separated for vinyl chloride monomer flow and light fractions flow and the latter flow is recycled for catalytic interaction in common with indicated ethane, indicated ethylene, indicated oxygen and indicated chlorine source at the indicated generating stage. Also, invention proposes variants of a method in producing vinyl chloride. Invention provides the complete extraction of hydrogen chloride from the reactor outlet flow after conversion of ethane/ethylene to vinyl (chloride).
EFFECT: improved producing method.
