Metaxylene is recovered from admixture with other C8 aromatic hydrocarbons including orthoxylene by liquid phase adsorptive separation using a sodium exchanged Y zeolite as the adsorbent. Performance is improved by maintaining the adsorbent in a narrow range of temperature and hydration. These conditions allow the metaxylene to be recovered in a single raffinate process without costly prefractionation for orthoxylene removal. A novel desorbent, indane, is also disclosed.
