The MTDP-3 toluene-conversion process offers significant benefits to operators, including:
- Very high toluene conversion per pass
- High benzene product and mixed xylenes product yields
- High weight hourly space velocity
- Superior xylenes/benzene ratio
- Benzene product with greater than 99.9% purity
- Very low H2 consumption
- Low catalyst cost
- Low operating cost
- Long catalyst cycles with stable product yields across the cycle
- Low costs and inexpensive debottlenecks
- Easy retrofits
