Isomerization Units are employed where fuels, such as pentane, a straight-chain isomer, are heated in the presence of a platinum catalyst. The resulting mixture of straight- and branched-chain isomers then have to be separated. An industrial process is also the isomerisation of n-butane into isobutane. The goal is improved octane
TechStar Analyzer Solutions can assist your Isomerization Unit with:
- Insure that all of the nC5’s have been sent to the reactor
- Control rate of conversion
- Minimize losses of iC5’s
- Maximize the amount of nC5 that is recycled
- Corrosion Protection
