TYPICAL PROCESS
Toluene (C₇H₈) is a versatile aromatic hydrocarbon used to produce a wide range of important chemical derivatives. Toluene derivatives are crucial in manufacturing plastics (PET, PU), explosives (TNT), pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. The production processes involve catalytic reforming, nitration, oxidation, and chlorination, making toluene a key feedstock in the petrochemical industry.

Toluene Derivative Processes
Toluene (C₇H₈) is a key aromatic hydrocarbon used to produce various important derivatives in the petrochemical and specialty chemical industries. Below are the major toluene derivative processes:
1. Toluene Hydrodealkylation (HDA) → Benzene
2. Toluene Disproportionation (TDP) → Benzene & Xylenes**
3. Selective Toluene Disproportionation (STDP) → Para-Xylene
4. Nitration of Toluene → Mononitrotoluene (MNT) & Dinitrotoluene (DNT)
5. Oxidation of Toluene → Benzoic Acid & Benzaldehyde
6. Chlorination of Toluene → Benzyl Chloride & Derivatives
7. Sulfonation of Toluene → Toluene Sulfonic Acids
