Abstract:
Processes and apparatuses for enhanced heat recover}/in a paraxylene manufacturing plant use a side condenser to recover high quality heat. By placing the side condenser below the location of a feed stream comprising low molecular weight gases, the heat recovered is free of such non-condensable gases. Such gases are undesirable when using the condensed vapor in other applications.
