Published July 1970

This supplemental report covers the separation of the xylene isomers and ethylbenzene into relatively pure components, starting with a C₈ aromatic fraction. Evaluation of the manufacture of xylene by synthetic methods, by dealkylation, or by other processes is not within the scope of the report; however, these processes are mentioned briefly.

Because p-xylene is the isomer that is currently of greatest interest, the isomerization of the other C₈ aromatics is often practiced commercially. Various isomerization processes are discussed but only a liquid phase isomerization is evaluated, as part of the Japan Gas-Chemical Company process.
