ICC - Process Overview Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-overview/035-I.jpg
ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Products</h6> <p><b>Paraxylene</b>. p-Xylene, or paraxylene is the most important commercial isomer among the xylenes group. Almost all of its production is converted to Terephthalic Acid and dimethyl terephthalate. p-Xylene is primarily manufactured by naphtha catalytic reforming, followed by separation of the xylenes isomers, crystallization or absorption for pxylene separation.</p> <p><b>Benzene</b>. Benzene (C6H6) is a flammable and volatile liquid. As the most simple aromatic hydrocarbon, it is used as an intermediate to produce many important chemicals, such as styrene (raw material for polystyrene and synthetic rubber), cyclohexane (used in nylon production), alkylbenzenes (used in detergent industry), aniline (used to produce dyes and polyurethanes), and chlorobenzenes. Also, benzene is used to produce pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, plastics, and pesticides. It occurs naturally in crude oil and coal tar. </p> <h6>Raw Materials</h6> <p><b>Toluene</b>. Toluene (also known as Methylbenzene) is an aromatic hydrocarbon mainly used as an industrial feedstock and as solvent. A significant part of toluene production is blended directly into gasoline pools. Other major use of this chemical is in the manufacture of the more valuable benzene, through hydrodealkylation. Most of toluene is produced via catalytic reforming of refinery streams (C6–C9 naphthas), along with benzene, xylenes, and C9-aromatics.</p> <b>C9 Aromatics</b>. C9 Aromatic Resin Oil is a key feedstock for the production of hydrocarbon resins used in adhesives, coatings, and rubber compounding. Its ability to improve the tackiness and elasticity of rubber makes it valuable in tire manufacturing. C9 resin oil is derived from the pyrolysis of naphtha and stored as a liquid. It is integral to industries requiring high-performance resins with excellent adhesive properties.</p>
