Optimization and techno-economic evaluation of an integrated process route for the synthesis of vinyl chloride monomer
This study reports a unique approach combining ethylene dichloride and vinylation to produce vinyl chloride that is both energy efficient and reduces chlorinated hydrocarbons, with the potential to enhance sustainable large-scale production plant set-up.
