| 摘要 |
Terephthalic acid of high purity is continuously produced in a high yield by oxidizing p-tolualdehyde with a molecular oxygen-containing gas in the presence of bromine ions as a catalyst in a water solvent, contacting the resulting slurry solution containing crude terephthalic acid with an ascending stream of high temperature water of 180 DEG -320 DEG C., and withdrawing the water solvent together with the ascending stream of high temperature of water upwardly, while settling down crystalline terephthalic acid through the ascending stream of high temperature water and withdrawing the crystalline terephthalic acid together with a portion of the high temperature water downwardly. |
