Crude Isophthalic Acid Production Process - Cost Analysis - IPA E21A
Description:... This report presents a cost analysis of Crude Isophthalic Acid production from m-xylene.
The process examined is a typical oxidation process.
In this process, p-xylene is oxidized to Isophthalic Acid. The Isophthalic Acid is then separated from the solvent as a Crude Isophthalic Acid (CIA). No further process for purification via hydrogenation is included in this process.
This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s):
