Synthesis of p-Xylene by Dehydroaromatization of 3-Methyleneheptane obtained from Ethylene
Invention Summary:p-Xylene is mostly produced from cracking of naphtha, but there is a need for new and cost-effective methods for the production. Indeed, conventional p-xylene synthesis requires toluene separation from refinery gasoline streams; performing a disproportionation reaction to yield a benzene fraction and a mixed xylene fraction; and finally...
