What are the effects of a high C5 content in the alkylation feed?
It may lead to a decline in the quality of your octane
Could you explain in detail which specific indicators will be affected? Thank you.
The problem I encountered yesterday; please keep track of it
They are divided into alkanes and olefins; an increase in alkanes raises the saturated vapor pressure of the oil, while an increase in olefins leads to more side reactions, resulting in higher dry points and final boiling points for the oil
It mainly depends on what component C5 is. If it is an alkane, it has little impact on the production process; its main effect is to increase the production costs of the facility and to reduce product quality. Under the same operating conditions, it causes a decrease in the octane number of the alkylated oil produced by the facility as well as an increase in its vapor pressure； If there is a high proportion of olefinic components, it has a significant impact on production; it leads to an increase in side reactions during the alkylation process, as well as a substantial rise in the dry point and final boiling point of the oil, resulting in substandard product quality.
