The fresh feed to the process is 100 lbmol/hr C2H4, 100 lbmol/hr Cl2, and 5 lbmol/hr of Inert (I). The fresh feed is mixed with a recycle stream containing ethylene, chlorine, and inerts and then fed to the reactor, where the singlepass conversion of chlorine is 18.2%. The reactor effluent is then sent to a separation unit which separates the vinyl chloride product from the other species, which are then sent to a purge unit that removes a
