Reaction
Interaction of benzene, hydrocholic acid and oxygen at the first stage process
might produce dichlorobenzenes, trichloro-benzenes, tetrachlorobenzenes,
pentachlorobenzene and hexachlorobenzene as a by-product 2. These by-
products are not presented in reaction as they are unwanted by-product and
can be separated easily by simple fractional distillation as by-products have
considerably high boiling point than chlorobenzene and steam 2.

First stage
- Benzene is converted into monochlorobenzene by oxychlorination reaction
using hydrochloric acid and oxygen over a CuCl2/ FeCl3 catalyst [2].
- By-products might be produced as well during reaction, such as
dichlorobenzenes, trichloro-benzenes, tetrachlorobenzenes,
pentachlorobenzene, hexachlorobenzene.
- Purification of monochlorobenzene need to be done using simple fractional
distillation and then condensed it to form liquid monochlorobenzene [2].
Second stage
- Hydrolysis catalyst of monochlorobenzene into phenol and hydrogen
chloride in which eventually hydrogen chloride is recycled to the first stage
[2]
.
- Separation of this hydrolysis products can be separated easily using
simple fraction distillation as the by-products has higher boiling point
reinforced by the fact that no azeotropes believed to be found in the
product stream.
