Problems solved by technology

However, since phenol / cyclohexanone mixtures always contain non-negligible amounts of (i) sulfur-containing components that can poison the hydrogenation catalyst, and (ii) cyclohexylbenzene that can be converted to bicyclohexane during the hydrogenation step, and Such a method presents challenges since the hydrogenation of the phenol / cyclohexanone / cyclohexylbenzene mixture also leads to the formation of cyclohexanol, resulting in a loss of yield

Abstract

Disclosed are processes for making cyclohexanone from a mixture comprising phenol, cyclohexanone, cyclohexylbenzene, and a catalyst poison component, comprising a step of removing at least a portion of the catalyst poison component to reduce poisoning of a hydrogenation catalyst used for hydrogenating phenol to cyclohexanone.

Description

[0001] Priority claims to related applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application 62 / 140,702, filed March 31, 2015; U.S. Provisional Application 62 / 057,919, filed September 30, 2014; and European Patent Application 15151424.7, filed January 16, 2015, Their disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety into the present application. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of cyclohexanone. In particular, the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of cyclohexanone by hydrogenation of phenol. The invention is useful, for example, in the preparation of cyclohexanone by oxidation of cyclohexylbenzene and cleavage of cyclohexylbenzene hydroperoxide. Background technique [0004] Cyclohexanone is an important raw material in the chemical industry and is widely used, for example, in the production of phenolic resins, bisphenol A, ε-caprolactam, adipic acid...
