    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing phosgene by gas-phase reaction of carbon monoxide and chlorine in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor which comprises a plurality of parallel catalyst tubes which are filled with the catalyst and around which at least one fluid heat transfer medium flows, where a feed stream of a mixture of a chlorine input stream and a carbon monoxide input stream is fed into the catalyst tubes and is allowed to react to give a phosgene-comprising product gas mixture, wherein the reaction is carried out at an area load of more than 2.75 kg of phosgene/m2s. The invention also provides a reactor for carrying out the process.
