This report presents a detailed cost analysis of chlorine production from hydrogen chloride obtained from the production of organochlorine compounds via oxidation, also known as the Deacon process. In this process, hydrogen chloride (HCl) undergoes oxidation with oxygen (O2) in the presence of a copper-based catalyst, such as copper chloride supported on alumina, at 400–500°C and atmospheric or slightly elevated pressure to convert HCl and O2 into chlorine (Cl2) and water vapor (H2O). Finally, Chlorine is purified by drying agents like sulfuric acid.
