Abstract
A process for the separation of an aldehyde and a second component from a feed stream () comprising the aldehyde and the second component, said process comprising: providing the feed stream to one or both of a first separation vessel () operating at a first pressure and a second separation vessel () operating at a second pressure wherein said second pressure () is greater than said first pressure; operating said first separation vessel () and said second separation vessel () such that separation occurs; recovering an aldehyde product stream () from at or near the bottom of the first separation vessel (), said aldehyde product stream () having a concentration of aldehyde which is higher than that in the feed stream (); recovering a second component stream () from at or near the top of the second separation vessel (), said second component stream having a concentration of second component which is higher than in the feed stream (); removing a first recycle stream () from at or near the top of the first separation vessel () and feeding it to the second separation vessel (); and removing a second recycle stream () from at or near the bottom of the second separation vessel () and feeding it to the first separation vessel ().
