This report provides a comprehensive cost evaluation of monochloroacetic acid (MCA) from acetic acid via chlorination and hydrogenation. The process involves taking acetic acid and acetic anhydride in a column reactor led by the introduction of chlorine gas. The chlorination of acetic anhydride gives acetyl chloride, which acts as a reaction catalyst leading to the production of Monochloroacetic acid and dichloroacetic acid. The products are then subjected to hydrogenation, reducing dichloroacetic acid into monochloroacetic acid, making MCA the major product.
