Summary: | A method for manufacturing carboxylic acid that includes the following steps is provided. First, subjecting an aqueous mixture, including carboxylic acid and at least 5 wt. % dissolved magnesium chloride, to a forward extraction step using a first organic liquid, including an organic solvent, the organic solvent being selected from the group of C5+ ketones, thereby obtaining an organic carboxylic acid solution and an aqueous waste liquid including magnesium chloride. Second, subjecting the organic carboxylic acid solution to a back extraction step wherein the carboxylic acid is extracted from the organic carboxylic acid solution into an aqueous liquid, thereby obtaining an aqueous carboxylic acid solution and a second organic liquid. Third, subjecting the aqueous waste liquid including magnesium chloride derived from the forward extraction to a thermal decomposition step at a temperature of at least 300° C., thereby decomposing the magnesium chloride to magnesium oxide and HCl. |
