    Abstract: THE RECOVERY OF EPSILON CAPROLACTONE AND OF ALKANE DICARBOXYLIC ACIDS FROM MIXTURES SUCH AS ARE OBTAINED IN THE INDIVIDUAL WASHING STEPS OF THE PROCESS FOR OXIDATION OF CYCLOHEXANE WITH AIR AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURE AND AT SUPERATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE AND CONTAINING SUBSTANTIALLY MONOCARBOXYLIC ACIDS, DICARBOXYLIC ACIDS AND EPSILON-HYDROXYCAPROIC ACID (IF DESIRED AFTER PART OF THE ADIPIC ACID PRESENT HAS BEEN SEPARATED) BY REMOVING WATER (IF PRESENT) AND THE MAJOR PORTION OF THE MONOCARBOXYLIC ACIDS (IF PRESENT) BY DISTILLATION, ADDING 1 TO 30% BY WEIGHT OF PHOSPHORIC ACID OR A COMPOUND FORMING THE SAME OR BORIC ACID, HEATING THE MIXTURE OBTAINED UNDER SUBATMOSPHERIC COMPONENTS, CONDENSING THE INDIVIDUAL FRACTIONS AND RECTIFYING AND/OR CRYSTALLIZING THE FRACTIONS. DISTILLATION TEMPERATURES ABOVE 150*C. ARE AVOIDED. EPSILON CAPROLACTONE IS USEFUL FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CAPROLACTAM, A STARTING MATERIAL FOR THE PRODUCTION OF FIBERS.

    Abstract: Solns. (I) of mol. O2 (II) in liq. hydrocarbons (III) are produced by contacting (III) with (II) under elevated pressure in a vertical absorption zone. The novel features are as follows: (a) there is a water layer (IV) at the lower end of the absorption zone; (b) (II) is passed into (IV); (c) (III) is supplied above (IV); (d) the finely-divided (II) rising from (IV) and (III) are passed upwards at 0-50 deg.C, with thorough mixing in the absorption zone, so that no coherent gas phase develops; and (e) (I) is discharged at the top of the absorption zone. (I) is recirculated in an amt. of 2-50 times the amt. of (III) supplied. The mixt. of (III) and (II) is passed through narrow points in the absorption zone. Absorption is carried out at 10-100 bar, depending on the amt. of (IV). A small amt. of liquid is removed at the top of the absorption zone. (IV) contains salts and surfactants.
