ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a process for manufacturing bleach (or sodium hypochlorite) and caustic potash (or KOH) without the need for shipping or storing chlorine gas. Specifically, the present invention relates to the manufacture of potassium hydroxide and chlorine gas, through several process options, for the manufacture of sodium hypochlorite (or bleach), hydrochloric acid (HCl) and/or other chlorinated compounds. The disclosed process allows operating flexibility based on chlorine demand, reduces capital costs and eliminates the need for the transportation and storage of chlorine gas.
