The Process Engineer’s Whiteboard – Alkylation Reactor Upgrades

Sulfuric Acid Alkylation Units are an extremely important unit in a refinery, producing high octane, low sulfur gasoline component critical to making clean burning gasoline. These units can also be expensive to operate, with high operating costs associated with the consumption of acid. The Alkylation experts at Norton Engineering Consultants can help in revamping your auto-refrigeration type Alky reactor to lower acid consumption, increase octane, and reduce alkylate endpoint – here are some ideas on today’s Process Engineer’s Whiteboard.
