Abstract

See full text

In a process/system for the purification of aromatic dicarboxylic acid (ACA), crude ACA solids are slurried with water recycled from at least a filtration step in a feed preparation zone. Flash steam in vapour phase is supplied to the zone from at least one of a crystallisation step, a filtration step, and a drier step. The slurried ACA solids are preheated to form a solution that is then hydrogenated. The ACA is allowed to crystallise and then crystals of pure ACA are filtered out and water is recovered in a single stage filtration process. Recovered water is supplied to the feed preparation zone and the crystals are dried and recovered. The flash steam recovered from the crystallisation step, filtration step and/or drier step is recovered as a vapour phase stream having a pressure from about atmospheric to 5 barg and supplied to the feed preparation zone without phase change.
