ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises two major sections: (1) Products Separation; and (2) Isomerization.</p><p>Products Separation. Fresh mixed xylenes stream is first submitted to clay treatment to remove impurities. The outlet stream is fed along with a mixed xylenes steam recovered downstream to a distillation column. While the bottom stream is separated in a further column, generating ortho-xylene and a valuable heavy aromatics stream, the distillate is passed through an adsorption unit. In that unit, Paraxylene product is extracted from other major streams that are sent to isomerization. The extract is submitted to distillation steps, from which high purity Paraxylene and a small amount of toluene are obtained.</p><p>Isomerization. C8 aromatic compounds - ethyl benzene, meta-xylene, ortho-xylene - and residual nonaromatics are stripped off from the dilute raffinate produced in the adsorption unit. A desorbent-rich stream is purified from heavy impurities and recycled to the adsorption unit. Then, the C8 stream is vaporized and heated with hydrogen to the isomerization reaction temperature. This hot feed stream is passed radially through a fixed bed of a molecular sieve catalyst, in such a way that part of the remaining aromatics are converted to Paraxylene. Such isomerization step reestablishes a near-equilibrium distribution of xylene isomers. After further distillation steps, the recovered xylenes are recycled to the adsorption unit.</p>

Purified Terephthalic Acid from p-Xylene (Conventional Process)

This study presents the economics of Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) production using p-xylene as the process feedstock. The study approaches the construction of a plant in the United States employing a conventional catalytic oxidation process. In this process, p-xylene is oxidized to terephthalic acid (TPA). The TPA is subjected to separation and drying steps, and then sent to hydrogenation to obtain PTA as the final product.
