摘要： Para-xylene is produced from a paraselective toluene disproportionation reactor, effluent (3) is distilled to eliminate toluene and benzene in at least 2 distillation columns (C1), (C2), and the xylenes (8) are crystallized at least once (10) at between +10.degree. C. and -30.degree. C. The separated mother liquor (14) is adsorbed on a zeolitic sieve in the presence of toluene in a simulated moving bed (15). This latter produces a raffinate (16) containing toluene which is depleted in para-xylene which is distilled in a distillation column (C4), and an extract which is enriched in para-xylene and contains toluene, which is recycled to columns (C1, C2). The para-xylene crystals are purified by washing with toluene and distillation or by partial melting (30) followed by washing with molten high purity para-xylene.

摘要： A monochromatic light signal of a wavelength of between 400 and 1300 nanometers is simultaneously passed by a source 1, a beam splitter 2 and optical fibers 3, 3a to at least two points of a zone 9 for the separation of a mixture of isomers and aromatic hydrocarbons having from 8 to 10 carbons atoms. A polychromatic signal is recovered corresponding to the Raman effect between 400 and 3500 cm.sup.-1 by optical receiving fibers 5, 5a connected to sensors 4 at the locations of said points. The chemical composition of the mixture is determined from the Raman spectra obtained by a spectrometer 6. The analysis sequence is repeated, the profiles with respect to the concentration of the isomers in the mixture are reconstituted and by comparison with reference concentration profiles, action is taken on at least on operational variable 11, 12 of the separation process. Application of this process to the regulation of simulated mobile beds, a distillation operation or a crystallization process for obtaining paraxylene or orthoxylene are also provided.
