Abstract
The present disclosure provides a process. In an embodiment, the process includes providing a purge stream composed of octene isomers. The process includes subjecting the purge stream to hydroformylation conditions, and forming a reaction product composed of nonanals.
Claims14
A process comprising:
- providing a purge stream comprising
- from 20 wt % to 55 wt % 1-octene,
- from 20 wt % to 60 wt % linear internal octene isomers,
- from 2 wt % to 8 wt % branched C8 olefins, and
- from 5 wt % to 60 wt % solvent, wherein weight percent is based on total weight of the purge stream;
- subjecting the purge stream to hydroformylation conditions;
- and
- forming a reaction product comprising nonanals.
