Abstract
A process for the separation of 2,7 DIPN from a hydrocarbon feed mixture comprising 2,7 DIPN and one or more other DIPN isomers, which process employs an adsorbent, comprising a type Y zeolite, dried to an LOI less than 10% which has been at least partially cation exchanged, at exchangeable sites, with potassium. The 2,7 DIPN thereafter is removed from the adsorbent by contacting it with an aromatic hydrocarbon desorbent material, comprising a xylene, e.g., para-xylene, benzene or toluene at desorbent conditions, and is recovered as an extract product stream. In a preferred embodiment, the process uses a simulated moving-bed countercurrent flow system.
