Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Dimethyl Terephthalate (DMT) from toluene and methanol. The process examined is a toluene disproportionation process similar to ExxonMobil PxMax, combined with a typical oxidation process followed by a methyl-esterification process. In this process, p-xylene obtained from toluene disproportionation is oxidized. The product is then mixed with methanol and esterified. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): Keywords: Mixed Xylenes, C8 Aromatics, PxMax, ExxonMobil, Dynamit-Witten-Nobel process, Xylene, Ethyl Alcohol
