Abstract

625,570. Distilling and crystallizing xylene. ANGLO-IRANIAN OIL CO., Ltd., BIRCH, S. F., FIDLER, F. A., and HARESNAPE, J. N. April 12, 1946, No. 11295. [Class 32] [Also in Group IV (b)] p-Xylene is obtained from an aromatic hydrocarbon mixture derived from coal tar or petroleum and boiling within 135-150‹ C. by separating by fractional distillation and/or low temperature filtration a fraction enriched in p-xylene, and a fraction enriched in o- and/or m-xylene, subjecting at least part of the latter to catalytic isomerization to convert part of the o- and/or m-xylene to p-xylene, and recovering p-xylene by fractional distillation and/or low temperature filtration. The aromatic fraction may be fractionated to give an overhead boiling up to 137‹ or 138‹ C. containing the ethyl benzene, a 138-139.5‹ C. fraction containing p-xylene and a residue of mainly o- and m-xylenes. The intermediate fraction is cooled to 0‹ to - 50‹ C. to crystallize p-xylene, and the residue passed with the o- and m-xylenes to the isomerization. Alternatively, ethyl benzene may be separated, the remaining xylenes cooled to - 40‹ to - 50‹ C. to crystallize p-xylene, and the mother liquors passed to the isomerization or an overhead containing ethyl benzene, p- and m-xylenes, an intermediate cut rich in m-xylene, and a residue containing o-xylene may be separated, the overhead cooled to crystallize p-xylene and the mother liquors fractionated to give ethyl benzene overhead, an intermediate containing m- and p-xylenes, and a residue concentrated in m-xylene, the intermediate cut being cooled to separate pxylene and the mother liquors fed with the first intermediate cut to the isomerization.
