Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Adipic Acid production from benzene using a two-stage oxidation process. The process examined is similar to Invista process. The Adipic Acid plant is integrated upstream with a plant for cyclohexane production from benzene and a plant for nitric acid production. A mixture of Adipic, glutaric, and succinic acids is generated as by-product. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): US Patent 20040054235, issued to DuPont in 2004 (assigned to Invista in 2004) Keywords: Hexanedioic Acid, Boric Acid, Ketone/Alcohol Oil, KA Oil, Cyclohexanone, Cyclohexanol
