Deacon process revisited: A shaped RuO 2 /SnO 2 –Al 2 O 3 catalyst was designed for highly active and stable performance in HCl oxidation to Cl 2 . In addition to its binding effect, alumina acts as a stabilizer to prevent sintering, endowing the catalyst with extraordinary longevity. Pilot tests give solid prospects for industrial implementation of this catalytic system.
