A process for separating para-xylene from a plurality of aromatic compounds, wherein the process introduces a mixed xylene feed stream comprising a plurality of xylene isomers into a first separation assembly to produce a first para-xylene enriched stream and a first raffinate stream. The process further feeds the raffinate stream into an isomerization unit to convert the raffinate stream into an isomerization reactor product stream, and introduces the isomerization reactor product stream into to a second para-xylene adsorptive separation unit to produce a second para-xylene enriched stream and a second raffinate stream.
