Abstract
We provide a hydrodechlorination and hydrogen chloride recovery process, comprising: a) contacting at least one hydrocarbon product with a hydrodechlorination catalyst in the presence of hydrogen under hydrodechlorination conditions to provide: i) an off-gas comprising an HCl, and ii) a dechlorinated product; b) separating the dechlorinated product from the off-gas; c) contacting the off-gas with an adsorbent under HCl adsorbing conditions such that the HCl is adsorbed by the adsorbent; and d) after step c), recovering the HCl from the adsorbent.
