Abstract
Disclosed is an improvement in a method for the recovery for recycle to the cooxidation-coesterification process for the production of dimethyl terephthalate from p-xylene, air and methanol of oxidation catalyst by aqueous extraction of a distillation residue containing the same. To minimize recycle of any iron present in the residue, iron oxidant material (for example, hydrogen peroxide) is admixed in one embodiment with the residue and water in the aqueous extraction procedure, and in a second embodiment with the resulting aqueous extract. In both embodiments, if any iron is present, it is precipitated. In the first embodiment the precipitate stays with the residue. In the second embodiment the aqueous extract is separated from the precipitate.
