As the processes state itStoichiometry, conversions, heats of reaction and catalyst windows are taken from each process's files with their provenance. The build checks only that each process's equation balances in every element, from the process's own component formulas; it does not check the numbers. A process's design maturity applies to them.

What the processes cite for this reaction, each source once: for the reaction itself, its conversion, its heat of reaction or its catalyst. As the processes write them; DOIs, US patent numbers and web addresses are linked.

  1. US4759826A (Occidental, 1988): double distillation of crude SOCl2 in the presence of sulfur, SCl2 shifted to S2Cl2 that stays in the reboiler (description, examples)

    For the reaction · cited by Thionyl chloride from sulfur, chlorine and SO2 over activated carbon (3.75 t/h)

  2. EP0042530B1 (1981): sulfur added at 1-15 wt%, preferably 2.5-7 wt%, of the thionyl chloride before or during distillation (description)

    For the reaction · cited by Thionyl chloride from sulfur, chlorine and SO2 over activated carbon (3.75 t/h)

  3. D-008: set so that the distillate holds 0.1 wt% SCl2 (scripts/balance.py); US4759826A and DE2430631A1 report the conversion of SCl2 with sulfur during distillation, not its extent

    For the conversion · cited by Thionyl chloride from sulfur, chlorine and SO2 over activated carbon (3.75 t/h)
