Then the autoclave was relieved and carbon dioxide and water excess were separated, then a resulted solution was filtered hot through a filter with active carbon. The filtrate was neutralised with hydrochloric acid and a precipitate of terephtalic acid was separated from a reaction solution using a centrifuge. The resulted product was washed with a distilled water and crystallised from water, giving 864 g of terephtalic acid. At the same time ethylene glycol was separated from the neutralised filtrate using extraction with diethylcarbonate, obtaining 322,6 g of ethylene glycol.
