1. Description of the "medium temperature" process
1.1 Principle
The controlled oxidation of orthoxylene or naphthalene with air between 350 and 430 ˚C (hot spot), in a fixed-bed vertical tubular reactor, leads to the following chemical reaction:
The enthalpies of reaction (taking into account by-products and combustion) are respectively :
• ΔH 1 = - 15.0 MJ...
