In this process, Maleic Anhydride is produced by the reaction of benzene with oxygen carried out in a fixed bed reactor. The reactor effluent is sent to an aqueous-based recovery system for Maleic Anhydride separation. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): "Maleic Anhydride, Maleic Acid, and Fumaric Acid", Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 5th edition Keywords: Fixed Bed, Maleic Acid Anhydride, Benzene Oxidation, Aqueous Recovery, Halcon, Scientific Design
