Abstract:
A process for disproportionating isopentane into isomers of hexane and butane that utilizes a fixed bed reactor employing a catalyst composition comprising aluminum halide. The process additionally includes a product separation zone which can be configured to recover and return at least a portion of the isopentane product stream to the inlet of the disproportionation reactor.
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for removing water from an alkylation process system using a water removal column to remove water from a re-run column (catalyst regeneration column) overhead stream.
Abstract:
A system for increasing the isobutane to olefin ratio in an alkylation process/system is disclosed. The system includes provisions for charging a portion of the settler effluent as a feed to at least one reaction zone downflow from the first reaction zone of a multi-zone alkylation reactor along with a portion of the olefin feed to the multi-zone alkylation reactor.

Abstract:
A method of fabricating articles from precipitation hardening aluminum alloys wherein the alloy is thermomechanically treated to control the characteristics of its microstructure before forging occurs in hot dies in an isothermal condition so that deformation occurs at a minimum strain rate. The forging temperature is above the solutionizing temperature of the alloy being forged.
