    Group members: Shoai B Ahmed, Larai B Rafi Que, Farkhunda Younus, Maha Tari Q Vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) is essential for producing polyvinyl chloride. VCM needs to be produced in a way that minimizes the release of chlorinated hydrocarbons into the environment. The document then outlines the direct chlorination and oxychlorination processes for producing ethylene dichloride and cracking it to produce VCM. It provides process parameters and diagrams for the reactions and purification steps. Finally, it discusses some common applications of polyvinyl chloride in packaging, construction, and medicine due to its flame retardant, chemical resistant, and durable properties.

    Many CHCs are created during the production of PVC this is
    a growing concern.


    VCM needs to be produced in a way that will minimize or
    totally eliminate the release of CHCs into the environment.
