"PROCESS FOR THE SEPARATION OF META-XYLENE" ABSTRACT An adsorptive separation process for separating meta- xylene from a feed mixture comprising meta-xylene and the other C8 aromatics, which process comprises contacting the feed mixture with an adsorbent comprising type Y zeolite containing sodium at the exchangeable cationic sites and having a silica to alumina mole ratio of from about 4.5 to about 5.0, selectively adsorbing substantially all of the meta-xylene isomers to the sub- stantial exclusion of the remaining C8 aromatics and thereafter recovering high-purity meta-xylene. A desorption step may be used to desorb the adsorbed meta-xylene. The process is carried out preferably in the liquid phase.
