The global p-xylene market has demonstrated positive growth thanks to increasing demand
for polyester fibers in the textile industry. Additionally, the chemical process becomes a …

With the global biodiesel production growing as never seen before, encouraged by
government policies, fiscal incentives, and emissions laws to control air pollution, there has …

The efficient separation of 4-methyl-1-pentene (4MP1) from its structural isomers is crucial
for industrial applications but remains challenging due to the similar physicochemical …

The development of energy‐efficient processes for selective separation of p‐xylene from
mixtures with its isomers is of vital importance in the petrochemical industries. Current …

In this study, a series of MFI-type zeolites with different aluminum contents have been
prepared and evaluated for toluene alkylation with methanol. All these zeolite samples are …

Xylene separation is crucial but challenging, especially for the preferential separation of the
intermediate‐size m‐xylene from xylene mixtures. Herein, exploiting the differences in …

This book investigates the development of sorption-enhanced reaction processes (SERPs)
with detailed modeling and simulation, design and operation of units. SERPs are processes …

This work presents a comprehensive insight about simulated moving bed (SMB) technology,
from concept to unit operation and process demonstration. A particular relevance is given to …

Abstract The Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) is one of the greatest illustrations of the potential
of continuous multicolumn counter-current chromatographic processes. Although it was …

The Single-Event Microkinetic (SEMK) methodology has been applied towards
“ethylbenzene dealkylation/xylene isomerization” under industrially relevant conditions. This …
