HEAVY ALKYLBENZENE PRODUCTION THROUGH OLIGOMERIZATION

摘要

A process for producing heavy alkyl aromatics is presented. The process utilizes low molecular weight hydrocarbons for generating larger alkyl groups. The hydrocarbons can be generated from a variety of sources including Fischer-Tropsch liquids. The process includes oligomerization of low molecular weight olefins to larger olefins. The larger olefins are passed to an alkylation reactor to alkylate aromatic compounds.
