Olefins and butanes to gasoline
Jul-2017
Increasing alkylation capacity to process readily available olefins can be an opportunity to add value to refinery operations
-
Hydrofluoric acid alkylation conversion and expansion
Nov-2018
Much of the cost of switching from hydrofluoric acid to sulphuric acid alkylation can be avoided by using existing equipment.

Alkylation: an option to monetise 
the increasing North American surplus of butanes
Apr-2013
The recent success and rapid growth of fracking in shale and tight rock formations has not only resulted in a surge of North American natural gas and light ...
-
Removing acid droplets produced by alkylation reaction
Nov-2019
Studies lead to a fuller understanding of how sulphuric acid droplets form in alkylation reactions and how to combat resulting downstream corrosion.
