PROCESSES FOR PRODUCING HEXAMETHYLENEDIAMINE (HMD), ADIPONITRILE (ADN), ADIPAMIDE (ADM) AND DERIVATIVES THEREOF
Processes for producing nitrogen containing compounds include producing hexamethylenediamine (HMD), adiponitrile (ADN), adipamide (ADM) and derivatives thereof from adipic acid (AA) obtained from fermentation broths containing diammonium adipate (DAA) or monoammonium adipate (MAA).

Processes for producing monoammonium adipate from fermentation broths containing diammonium adipate, monoammonium adipate and/or adipic acid, and conversion of monoammonium adipate to adipic acid
A process for making MAA from a clarified DAA-containing fermentation broth includes (a) distilling the broth to form an overhead that includes water and ammonia, and a liquid bottoms that includes MAA, at least some DAA, and at least about 20 wt% water; (b) cooling the bottoms to a temperature sufficient to cause the bottoms to separate into a DAA-containing liquid portion in contact with a MAA-containing solid portion that is substantially free of DAA; (c) separating the solid portion from the liquid portion; and (d) recovering the solid portion.

PROCESSES FOR PRODUCING ADIPIC ACID FROM FERMENTATION BROTHS CONTAINING DIAMMONIUM ADIPATE
Processes for making AA from either a clarified DAA-containing fermentation broth or a clarified MAA-containing fermentation broth that include distilling the broth under super atmospheric pressure at a temperature of >100° C. to about 300° C. to form an overhead that comprises water and ammonia, and a liquid bottoms that includes AA, and at least about 20 wt % water; cooling the bottoms to a temperature sufficient to cause the bottoms to separate into a liquid portion and a solid portion that is substantially pure AA; and separating the solid portion from the liquid portion. A method also reduces the broth distillation temperature and pressure by adding an ammonia separating and/or water azeotroping solvent to the broth.

PROCESSES FOR PRODUCING MONOAMMONIUM ADIPATE FROM FERMENTATION BROTHS CONTAINING DIAMMONIUM ADIPATE, MONOAMMONIUM ADIPATE AND/OR ADIPIC ACID, AND CONVERSION OF MONOAMMONIUM ADIPATE TO ADIPIC ACID
A process for making MAA from a clarified DAA-containmg fefme.ntation broth includes (a) distilling: the broth to form an overhead thai includes water and ammonia, and a liquid bottoms, that includes MAA, at least some DAA, and at least about 20 wt% water; (fa) cooling "the bottoms to a temperature sufficient to cause the bottoms to separate into a DAA-containing liquid portion in contact with a MAA-contaraing solid portion that is substantially free of DAA; (c) separating the solid portion from the liquid portion: and (d) recovering the solid portion.
