Upgrading light olefins and isobutane to alkylate offers refiners an opportunity to increase their crude barrel value. Alkylate is a superior gasoline blendstock due to its high octane and low vapor pressure. ExxonMobil’s proven Sulfuric Acid Alkylation technology reacts propylene, butylene and pentylene with isobutane to form high value alkylate for gasoline blending.
A proven, reliable system
• Direct vaporization of C3 results in energy savings.
• Multiple mixing zones in the reactor increases reliability. Sulfuric Acid Alkylation simplified flow diagram
• Over 50 years of ExxonMobil and licensee operating experience from 2 to 100 KBD.
• Flexibility in partnering with multiple sulfuric acid regeneration technologies.
