ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing cyclohexanol from benzene by:a) preparing cyclohexene by hydrogenating benzene in the presence of a catalyst, andb) preparing cyclohexanol by hydrating the cyclohexene in the presence of a catalyst, comprises:carrying out steps a) and b) in a reaction facility which has a bottom region at the lower end,a top region at the upper end, anda reaction zone between the top region and the bottom region which contains the catalyst according to steps a) and b),evaporating a portion of the benzene using the heat of reaction in the reaction zone, condensing it in the top region and returning it to the reaction zone, andwithdrawing a reaction mixture containing cyclohexanol in the bottom region.
