Abstract:
1. A process for oxidation of a saturated cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon via molecular oxygen, the process comprising: oxidizing a saturated cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon via molecular oxygen, wherein gaseous effluents comprising saturated cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon are produced; contacting the gaseous effluents with an oil in the liquid state in order to absorb the saturated cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon from such effluents, wherein the absorption produces a hydrocarbon loaded oil; extracting hydrocarbon from the hydrocarbon loaded oil by treating the resulting hydrocarbon loaded oil by water steam stripping; condensing the vapor recovered from the steam stripping; and separating the hydrocarbon by settling, wherein the gaseous effluents are contacted with the oil at a temperature of from 20° C. to 25° C.
