Terephthalic acid is used in the production of many different polymers, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET). A typical process for PET is the direct condensation of terephthalic acid with a polyol. This direct esterification reaction requires 15 purified terephthalic acid to make the reaction product acceptable. The terephthalic acid is produced by directly deuterating P-diphenylbenzene and then recovering the crude terephthalic acid (CTA) by crystallizing from the mother liquid. This CTA still contains approximately 0.2% by weight of the major impurities of 4-methylbenzonic acid (4-CBA). In order to reduce the content of the contained 4_CBA, the CTA 20 system is typically dissolved in water, and the resulting solution is treated in a hydrogenation reactor to convert 4-CB A to p-toluic acid. The solution from the gasification reactor is then typically cooled by rinsing in a set of crystallizers to precipitate the purified terephthalic acid (ρτΑ) as crystals. The slurry from the crystallizer still contains a significant amount of P-methylformic acid that needs to be separated from ρτΑ 5 200909407 to meet commonly used commercial specifications not exceeding i5 〇 ppm. The target is to purify the PTA using a two-stage solid phase separation. Self-mother clarification The traditional method of liquid knife away from PTA' includes one. . To 17 baht. . The slurry was centrifuged at a temperature of 1 to 7 bar. Under these conditions most of the p-methylformic acid will remain in solution and be separated. The P T A crystals from the centrifuge tube contained only a small amount of p-methylformic acid, but it did contain residual parent clear liquid (typically 1〇15%). In order to remove these impurities, the crystallization is usually mixed with additional water (in the ratio of L1 to 丨.5 m3 water/ton PTA) to rinse the parent clarified liquid still contained therein. It produces a solid slurry having 45 (± 5) percent. This slurry is then flushed to atmospheric pressure and fed to a second stage of centrifugal separation or a rotary vacuum filter (RVF). The PTA containing 10-15% residual water is then typically dried and stored in a rotary drier. § Hei PTA crystals still contain a smaller amount of p-methylformic acid (usually less than 150 ppm) while the 4-CBA content is typically less than 25 ppm. U.S. Patent No. 5,175,355 teaches a process for the purification of the present dicarboxylic acid containing a pressurized ruthenium. This reference teaches the introduction of an aqueous solution (which contains purified terephthalic acid in the presence of crystals and p-methyl decanoic acid in an aqueous solution and in a co-crystal form). More in the filter tank. The slurry was filtered at a system pressure of from atmospheric to 16 atm. The filter tank having the resulting filter cake is then transferred to a rinse zone where a water stream heated to 38 ° C to 2051 is introduced into the filter tank to form a reservoir on the filter cake. Water area. Displacement wash 200909407 is achieved by then forcing moisture through the cake while maintaining the water reservoir at a pressure gradient that is at least above the system pressure 〇.5_. The replacement wash is allowed to continue - sufficient time to remove the desired amount of impurities. The filter tank is then transferred to a pressure relief zone, 5 wherein the system pressure is rapidly released to flash evaporate the water remaining in the cake and recover the product. The pressure relief zone is then pressurized back to the system pressure to be ready to accept additional product. This method has been reported to give terephthalic acid containing less than 2 ppm by weight of p-methylformic acid. U.S. Patent No. 6,639,104 describes an improved method comprising transferring the rinsed filter cake to a reduced pressure zone (or pressure relief zone) at a pressure below the pressure of the wash zone. This reference describes a dome valve that can be used as a specific example of a buck system.

Providing an improved process for the recovery of benzoic acid from the purified phthalic acid crystals and removal of impurities will improve the art of producing pure 20 terephthalic acid. C SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is an improved process for the recovery of 200909407 for, for example, purified terephthalic acid (''''), purified isophthalic acid, and trimellitic acid polycarboxylic acid. Containing a) a liquid containing moisture, crystalline terephthalic acid and impurities, the slurry is guided by a high pressure rotary converter; _ filtering the slurry and collecting at least part of the solid portion; c) The collected solid portion is passed to a rotary valve containing a temperature control system; (10) the 5/JBL degree control system is passed to control the temperature in the rotary valve; and e) the solid portion is removed from the rotary valve. The rotary valve includes a valve housing and a rotor, and the temperature control system controls the temperature difference between the valve housing and the rotor. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides an improved system for the recovery of polycarboxylic acids which utilizes a pressure reducing system which depressurizes the solid material without affecting the filter pressure control system or mass flux. [Embodiment 3] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In the present invention, the liquid slurry containing a carboxylic acid having impurities such as terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid or stearic acid may be derived from any The production of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, and stupitricarboxylic acid is known. Its specialty is known to be in the art of shai and is the least important to the invention on the one hand. This special high-speed rotating fisherman system for filtering is equally unimportant to the present invention. It can utilize any filtration system that can operate at pressures greater than atmospheric pressure. Preferably, the filter can handle the entire sterol dicarboxylic acid flux of the apparatus under standard operating conditions and can operate at pressures from 1.0 to 10 o. A suitable filter is commercially available from Andritz, Inc. and is described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,70,473 and 6,655, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

The filter is typically comprised of a housing that is pressurized under processing pressure, and a cylinder that is covered by a filtering device such as a cloth or its equivalent filtering device, which is suitably below The pressure of the housing is 5 to boost. The cylinder is ideally divided into three zones: • The first zone of the parent clarified liquid is removed. • Clean the second area of the solid. • The excess cleaning clarified liquid is removed and the solid is removed from the third zone. The pressure system of the housing is preferably in the range of from 1.5 to 65, and most preferably about 4.5 bar. The housing of the filter is pressurized with a hot inert gas, vapor, or a mixture of the two that can be used to pressurize the filter housing. Use hot gas, steam or a mixture of the two to pressurize I5' to allow for a noon; to produce a consistent temperature in the device, avoiding local crystallization that would lead to impurities and then reducing product quality. It’s cold. This filtration is carried out optimally at 110 to 160 ° C, and optimally at 147 ° C. The slurry having a temperature of 110 to 16 Torr (more preferably 135 to 150 Torr and more preferably 20 147 ° C) is fed to the slurry at 2% to 1% by weight. The amount will overflow to a liquid-tight manner, and the last crystallizer from the crystallization unit is fed to a feed tank in the filter housing, the bowl containing a liquid The pressure conduit of the surface control system is balanced with the filter housing by its own line. This specific example allows the filter to maintain a stable feed, submerge the filter cylinder's action and stabilize the pressure of the filter unit, and then return to the slurry feed conduit. The pressure difference between the housing and the cylinder is in the range 5 of 0.1 to 2. 〇 bar, preferably in the range of 0.3 to 0.7 bar, most preferably 〇.5 bar. The mother clarified liquid removed from the rotary pressure filter can be separately recovered as known in the art and reused in the production process or delivered to the waste treatment facility. The remaining solid portion is then washed with an additional amount of water. It has now been found that the process of the present invention requires less wash water to achieve a purity similar to conventional. Thus, although any amount of water can be used in the scrubbing stage of the present invention, it is preferred to use less than pTA im3 of water per ton to conserve water and reduce the energy associated with heating the water to processing temperatures. The amount of water is preferably in the range 15 of pta between 〇·2 and 〇7m3/MT, and is most preferably about 0.5 MT of PTA. This washing action is preferably carried out at the same temperature as the filtration, although this is only convenient and not necessary. The water temperature for cleaning the solid matter is from 5 〇〇 c to 16 PC', preferably from 丨川^ to 丨%%, most preferably 147. [. The cleaning clarified liquid can then be separately collected from the parent clarifying liquid and reused or recycled to the production process as is known in the art. As is known in the art, the solid material may be separated by the cake removal system after washing, and hot gas, steam or a mixture of the two may be blown from the inside of the rotating cylinder. Filtered within the housing, and the temperature of the 10 200909407 blowing liquid is in the range of 110 to 10 (10), more preferably i35 to prison, and even more preferably 147. Feeding the cake removal system with heat may allow the temperature of the effluent product to be maintained at an appropriate elevated temperature, thereby making the final subsequent drying operation easier and less expensive. 5 The separated solids are preferably passed through a pressure reducing system comprising a rotating chamber into an atmospheric filter cake funnel at a lower pressure than the filter housing. The pressure reducing system of the present invention is a rotary valve having a proper gap between the fan and the housing such that the fan does not sealingly engage the inner surface of the rotating housing 10. A specific example of a rotary valve that can be used in the present invention is described in us 2006/0045729. For the purposes of the present invention, the rotary valve includes at least one valve housing and a rotor. The rotating chamber is also provided with a temperature control system for maintaining a temperature difference between the housing and the rotor of the rotary valve in accordance with a selected set point to control the gap between the fan and the housing between the 15 and the rotating chamber. . In this method, the rotary valve allows moisture present in the solid product to be smoothly released by steam in the fan of the valve member itself, and then avoids flashing at the exhaust end of the partition (sudden Flash). Therefore, the temperature control system is used to control the gap between the rotor and the valve member, and indirectly leads to a regulated pressure drop mode. The temperature control system for controlling the temperature difference between the valve housing and the rotor includes at least one heating medium, at least one temperature measuring device, and at least one logic control device. The heating medium used is not critical and may be, for example, hot steam, hot nitrogen, gas vented from the oxidation reaction 200909407, any other suitable hot inert gas, an electric heating instrument, or one or more A combination of these substances. The application of this novel system allows the release of water in the solid product without preventing the leakage of the gas. It is necessary to use hot gas 5 to pressurize the filter to maintain a continuous gas leakage through the rotary valve; in fact, the cooler gas may cause an increase in gas leakage or cause a valve in the temperature control of the system. The problem of failure. This novel system, as well as the hot pressurized liquid used, can collectively allow for limiting and controlling the leakage of gas through the valve member and avoiding failure. 10 that will accept a filter cake funnel from the solids of the pressure reduction system, optionally with two outlets to release gaseous species, and from one end to a vacuum system to avoid undesired pressure increases, while The other end is connected to a constant pressure buffer to avoid undesired full vacuum. The solid material can then be passed to a dryer by a suitable means 15, such as a screw, for further processing as is known in the art. Specific Examples The following methods were applied to Specific Examples 1 and 2: Method for determining moisture content The covered petri dish was dried in an oven at about 105 γ until its constant weight was obtained. Approximately 10 grams of the sample was weighed to the nearest peti dish in the Wei-dry petri dish. The covered petri dish containing the sample was placed in an air oven at approximately 105 ° C for 2 hours and cooled in a desiccator at room temperature.
