Abstract:
A method for recovering paraxylene from a mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons. The process uses a pressure swing adsorption zone followed by a paraxylene recovery zone. The invention provides for lower throughput through the paraxylene recovery zone, resulting in lower capital costs and operating costs.
