    Abstract: Processes for converting C8 aromatic hydrocarbons. In some embodiments, a process for converting a hydrocarbon feed that can include C8 aromatic hydrocarbons can include feeding the hydrocarbon feed into a conversion zone and contacting the hydrocarbon feed at least partly in a liquid phase with an isomerization catalyst composition in the conversion zone under conversion conditions to effect isomerization of at least a portion of the C8 aromatic hydrocarbons to produce a conversion product rich in para-xylene. In some embodiments, the isomerization catalyst composition can include a zeolite (preferably a ZSM-5 zeolite) that can have a silica (SiO2) to alumina (AI2O3) molar ratio of 10 to 100, a total surface area of 200 m2/g to 700 m2/g, a micropore surface area of 50 m2/g to 600 m2/g, and an external surface area of 55 m2/g to 550 m2/g.

    Abstract: In a process for producing biphenyl compounds, a Cn aromatic hydrocarbon may be hydroalkylated to give C2n cycloalkylaromatic compounds and byproduct Cn saturated cyclic hydrocarbons. The C2n cycloalkylaromatic compounds are dehydrogenated to provide the biphenyl compounds. The Cn saturated cyclic hydrocarbons may also be dehydrogenated back to the corresponding Cn aromatic hydrocarbon, which may be recycled to provide additional feed. Although both the intermediate C2n cycloalkylaromatic compounds and the byproduct Cn saturated cyclic hydrocarbons should be dehydrogenated, at least part of the dehydrogenation of the Cn saturated cyclic hydrocarbons should take place in the absence of C2n or greater hydrocarbons. Thus, dehydrogenation of the byproduct Cn saturated cyclic hydrocarbons should take place at least in part separately from dehydrogenation of the C2n cycloalkylaromatic compounds.
