Claim Text:
1. A process for producing para-xylene, the process comprising: (a1) separating a feed stream comprising C (b1) contacting at least part of the C (c1) contacting at least part of the C (d1) recovering para-xylene from the methylated effluent stream and the ethylbenzene-depleted C (e1) contacting at least part of the at least one para-xylene depleted stream with a xylene isomerization catalyst under liquid phase conditions effective to isomerize xylenes in the para-xylene depleted stream and produce an isomerized stream; (f1) recycling at least part of the isomerized stream to (d1); (g1) contacting at least part of the C (h1) recycling at least part of the transalkylated stream to (b1) and (d1).
