METHOD OF MAKING LINEAR ALKYLBENZENES

摘要

A method of producing a linear alkylbenzene that includes introducing an olefin into an aromatic stream to form a mixture; processing the mixture in a shear device at a shear rate greater than about 20,000 s−1 to form a dispersion; and reacting the dispersion in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor vessel to form a linear alkylbenzene product stream, wherein the reactor vessel is maintained at a bulk reaction temperature in the range of about 0° C. to about 60° C.
