Advances in Alkylation Technology: With The invent of RHT-Alkylation, sulfuric acid alkylation process configuration
and equipment, provides multiple paradigm shifts and breakthroughs in the technology but keeping same reaction
chemistry. The breakthroughs reduce the Capex and Opex in region of 40 to 50% compared to convential technology; this is
not just improvements but major paradigm shift. The process uses a unique eductor-mixing device, which reduce the costs and
maintenance requirements on stream factor with simple equipment. The unit uses classical coalescers for separating the acid
and hydrocarbon from the contactor/reactor effluent, making it a dry process that simplifies the process by reducing equipment
items, corrosion and cost. Additionally major breakthrough is in absorbing the auto refrigeration vapors in reactor effluent.
This reduce the requirement for compressor saving 20 % Capex and 50 % of power requirements and operating costs. These are
major benefits to the refining industry and should be embraced by the industry to make the competitiveness of the unit. RHT-
Isooctene/iso-octane process provides major economics advantages with simple and smart configuration which enhances the
yield and reduces the equipment sizes and utilities. Advances simplify the technology and provide economy of scale.
