BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS, METHODS FOR PRODUCING BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS, AND PROCESSES FOR ADSORPTIVE SEPARATION OF PARA- XYLENE FROM MIXED XYLENES USING THE BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS
BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS, METHODS FOR PRODUCING BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS, AND PROCESSES FOR ADSORPTIVE SEPARATION OF PARA- XYLENE FROM MIXED XYLENES USING THE BINDERLESS ZEOLITIC ADSORBENTS
pBinderless BaKX zeolitic adsorbents, methods for their production, and processes for their use in a liquid phase adsorptive separation process are provided. An adsorbent includes a binder-converted zeolite portion formed from x wt % kaolin clay binder and (100-x) wt % unconverted Zeolite X with a silica:alumina molar ratio of about 2.5. The kaolin clay binder is in the range of about 10 to about 20 wt %. Ba and K occupy cationic exchangeable sites within the adsorbent. K is in the range of about 0.25 to about 0.9% by weight and Ba is greater than about 31.6% by weight of the binderless BaKX zeolitic adsorbent. Cornstarch may be added to the Zeolite X and kaolin clay binder to increase adsorbent macro-porosity and pore volume. Productivity of the adsorbent is improved decreasing process operating costs. The mechanical strength of the adsorbent is also improved./p[US2011011804A1]
