Abstract:
This present disclosure relates to processes for methylation of aromatics in an aromatics complex for producing a xylene isomer product. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a process for producing para-xylene by the selective methylation of toluene and/or benzene in an aromatics complex using mild reaction conditions, namely a combination of low temperatures and elevated pressures using a zeolite with lower number of external acid sites.

Claim (Index 16):
The process of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n separating an aqueous stream comprising methanol from the alkylation reaction zone product stream before separating the alkylation reaction zone product stream into the vent gas stream, the overhead stream, the side cut, and the bottoms stream; separating a methanol stream from the aqueous stream; and recycling the methanol stream to the methanol feed stream.
