ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for the production of a desired xylene isomer, preferably paraxylene, and high quality benzene. The desired isomer is recovered from the feed and recycle streams in a xylene separation zone. The net effluent or raffinate from the separation zone is passed into a catalytic xylene isomerization zone. The isomerization zone effluent stream is passed into a high severity transalkylation zone. Ethylbenzene in the feed stream is subjected to staged conversion in the two catalytic reaction zones and thereby converted to both xylenes and benzene.
