Abstract

The invention concerns a method for producing 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene comprising: a fluoridation reaction of a halopropane and/or halopropene into 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene by means of hydrogen fluoride; the recovery of a gas stream resulting from the reaction; the cooling and partial condensation of the gas stream resulting from the reaction into a partially condensed stream; the separation of the partially condensed stream into a gas fraction and a liquid fraction; the compression of the gas fraction into a compressed gas fraction; the compression of the liquid fraction into a compressed liquid fraction; the distillation of the compressed gas fraction and compressed liquid fraction in order to provide a stream of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, a stream of hydrochloric acid, and a stream of unreacted hydrogen fluoride. The invention also concerns an installation suitable for implementing said method.
