Then the autoclave was relieved and carbon dioxide was separated, and a resulted solution was filtered hot through a filter with active carbon. The filtrate was neutralised with orthophosphoric 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 864,2 g of terephtalic acid. At the same time ethylene glycol was separated from the neutralised filtrate using distillation, obtaining 322,5 g of ethylene glycol and almost theoretical amount of inorganic salt.
