제목 Chemical conversion study of MFB to high value products
초록 DMT (dimethyl terephthalate) is well-defined raw material for PET production. In commercial DMT has been synthesized from p-xylene in air oxidation followed by esterification. In this process, partial oxidation of xylene gave rise to major by-products MFB (methyl 4-formylbenzoate) and MMB (methyl 4-methylbenzoate). After separation of DMT by distillation under reduced pressure, residues containing DMT, MFB, and MMB with 14%, 80%, and 6%, respectively have been disposed by open burning/detonation. The use of open burning/detonation is becoming unacceptable due to public concern and environmental regulations. Therefore, the chemical conversion study of MFB to higher value products would be highly desirable. The West have used MFB as a versatile starting material for the design of different types of valuable products.
Herein, we would like to discuss recovery process of MFB from residual waste and conversion of MFB to high valuable fine chemical products.
