20090036722 | Alkylaromatics production - A process is described for producing an alkylaromatic compound, in which a first feed comprising an alkylatable aromatic compound and a second feed comprising an alkene are introduced into a first alkylation reaction zone comprising a first alkylation catalyst. The first alkylation reaction zone is operated under conditions effective to cause alkylation of the alkylatable aromatic compound by the alkene to produce said alkylaromatic compound, the conditions being such that the alkylatable aromatic compound is at least predominantly in the vapor phase. A first effluent comprising the alkylaromatic compound and unreacted alkylatable aromatic compound is withdrawn from the first alkylation reaction zone and at least part of the unreacted alkylatable aromatic compound is treated to remove catalyst poisons therefrom and produce a treated unreacted alkylatable aromatic stream. At least part of the unreacted alkylatable aromatic compound and a third feed comprising said alkene is introduced into a second alkylation reaction zone comprising a second alkylation catalyst. The second alkylation reaction zone is operated under conditions effective to cause alkylation of the unreacted alkylatable aromatic compound by the alkene to produce said alkylaromatic compound, the conditions being such that the alkylatable aromatic compound is at least predominantly in the liquid phase. A second effluent comprising said alkylaromatic compound is withdrawn from the second alkylation reaction zone. | 02-05-2009 |

20100305378 | Aromatic Alkylation Process - The present invention is for a process for the alkylation of aromatic compounds, with a shape-selective zeolite catalyst. The process has reactors in series with C | 12-02-2010 |
20140128651 | Process for the Reduction of Alkylation Catalyst Deactivation Utilizing Low Silica to Alumina Ratio Catalyst - Alkylation systems and methods of minimizing alkylation catalyst regeneration are described herein. The alkylation systems generally include a preliminary alkylation system adapted to receive an input stream including an alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon and contact the input stream with a preliminary alkylation catalyst disposed therein to form a first output stream. The preliminary alkylation catalyst generally includes a zeolite catalyst having a SiO | 05-08-2014 |
20140194660 | PROCESS FOR REDUCING THE BENZENE CONTENT OF GASOLINE - A process is described for alkylating benzene contained in a refinery gasoline stream, in which the refinery gasoline stream is contacted with an alkylating agent comprising one or more C2 to C5 olefins in an alkylation reaction zone under alkylation conditions to produce an alkylated effluent. The alkylation reaction zone comprises at least a first alkylation reaction stage and a second alkylation reaction stage and a portion of said alkylating agent is fed to each of said first and second alkylation reaction stages so that, although the molar ratio of alkylatable aromatic to alkylating agent in the total feed to the alkylation reaction zone is less than 1, the molar ratio of alkylatable aromatic to alkylating agent at the inlet of each of the first and second alkylation reaction stages is at least 1.0. | 07-10-2014 |
20150025286 | Production of Monoalkyl Aromatic Compounds - The present disclosure relates to a process for production of a monoalkyl aromatic compound by alkylation of alkylatable aromatic compounds with an alkylating agent in a reactor comprising at least a first and a second series-connected alkylation reaction zones and a cooler disposed between the first and the second series-connected alkylation reaction zones. The process comprising a step of cooling at least a portion of an effluent withdrawn from the first alkylation reaction zone before being introduced into the second alkylation reaction zone. | 01-22-2015 |
20160052839 | Use of Swing Preliminary Alkylation Reactors - Alkylation systems and processes are described herein. The alkylation system generally includes a preliminary alkylation system containing a preliminary alkylation catalyst therein and adapted to contact an aromatic compound and an alkylating agent with the preliminary alkylation catalyst so as to alkylate the aromatic compound and form a preliminary output stream, wherein the preliminary alkylation system includes a first preliminary alkylation reactor and a second preliminary alkylation reactor connected in parallel to the first preliminary alkylation reactor and a primary alkylation system adapted to receive the preliminary output stream and contact the preliminary output stream and the alkylating agent with a primary alkylation catalyst disposed therein so as to form a primary output stream. | 02-25-2016 |
