Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain high-purity terephthalic acid easily, by adding an alkali substance to an aqueous solution of crude terephthalic acid, obtained through oxidation of p-tolualdehyde in water in the presence of a bromine compound catalyst with oxygen, followed by hydrogenation and recrystallization.
CONSTITUTION: Crude terephthalic acid, obtained by oxidation of p-tolualdehyde in the liquid phase in the presence of a bromine compound, e.g. HBr, with oxygen in water, is dissolved in water and incorporated with an alkali substance. The mixture is then hydrogenated with H2 in the presence of a catalyst, and recrystallized to give the purified objective compound. Hydroxides and carbonates of Na, K, Ca, etc. may be used as the alkali substance in an amount equivalent to or more than Br contained in the raw material.
EFFECT: Activity lowering of the hydrogenation catalyst can be prevented.
