RECOVERY OF ALKYL CHLORIDE ADSORBTION CAPACITY BY BASIC SOLUTION TREATMENT OF SPENT ADSORBENT

摘要

Processes for the rejuvenation of a spent adsorbent, wherein the adsorption capacity of the spent adsorbent may be repeatedly restored by treating the spent adsorbent with a basic solution and subsequent adsorbent activation, thereby allowing a plurality of adsorption cycles using a single adsorbent sample. Processes for ionic liquid catalyzed hydrocarbon conversion and hydrocarbon product purification are also disclosed.
