Aliphatic Alkylation in Petroleum Refining provides a fundamental understanding on the alkylation process, from molecular-level interfacial properties to macroscopic industry plants. Since the direct distillation of oil fractions does not satisfy the whole demand for fuel feedstocks, processes such as reforming, isomerization, and alkylation are needed to fulfill the market requirements within the gasoline pool. From the processes mentioned above, this book covers one of the most important refining processes due to the high quality of the alkylate with high research octane number (RON).Although the Aliphatic alkylation with H2SO4 and HF as catalysts have been industrialized for many years, there still exists lots of problems due to the complex heterogeneous reaction, such as the thermodynamics, reaction mechanism, molecular-level interfacial properties, and so on. - Introduces industrial alkylation technology and process safety with different catalysts - Highlights reaction mechanisms and kinetic models using different catalysts?? - Presents interfacial behaviors between reactants and catalysts that are fundamental in the process intensification of Aliphatic alkylation?

Weizhen Sun is a Professor at East China University of Science and Technology (ECUST), Shanghai, China. He graduated from ECUST, majoring in Chemical Engineering, and obtained the master and doctorate degrees in chemical engineering from ECUST in 2004 and 2009, respectively. He was engaged for one year in molecular simulation in the group of Professor Berend Smit, University of California at Berkeley. His main research interests include chemical reaction engineering, multiscale simulation, and applications of nanomaterials in energy and medicine. He is good at using chemical engineering theory and methods to study reaction kinetics of complex systems, and multiscale simulation, optimization and design of large-scale industrial reactors, especially focusing on the surface and interface properties and reaction-transfer coupling relationships of heterogeneous reaction processes using multiscale methods. He has published more than 80 publications in international chemical journals such as AIChE J., Chem. Eng. Sci, Chem. Eng. J. and Ind. Eng. Chem. Res, and so on.
