This application provides an apparatus for making a hydrocarbon with a reduced amount of an organic halide, comprising:

    a. a process unit comprising an effluent port, that produces and discharges the hydrocarbon comprising the organic halide; andb. a halide removal vessel with an inlet that feeds the hydrocarbon from the process unit, wherein the halide removal vessel comprises an anhydrous metal chloride and in which the hydrocarbon comprising the organic halide is contacted with the anhydrous metal chloride under anhydrous conditions to produce a contacted hydrocarbon having from 50-100 wt % of a total halide in the hydrocarbon removed.
