The process examined is a xylene isomerization process with ethylbenzene (EB) isomerization. In this process, a mixture of C8 aromatics (mixed xylenes) containing xylene isomers and EB is sent to an adsorption unit for the recovery of p-Xylene. The remaining xylenes as well as the ethylbenzene are isomerized and the product from isomerization is recycled to the adsorption unit. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Mixed Xylenes, C8 Aromatics, UOP, PAREX, Isomar, Axens, Eluxyl, ExxonMobil, Oparis, MHAI
