ATC Technology Flysheet

ATC Technology Highlights

Low operating cost

• Ultra-high (nearly stoichiometric) yields minimize raw material consumptions.
• The alkylation catalyst used can tolerate high water concentration, requiring less circulation.

Superior technology

• ExxonMobil’s proprietary zeolite catalyst does not age due to oligomerization and coking, resulting in long, uninterrupted commercial catalyst cycle lengths.
• High yield – nearly as high as propylene-based zeolite process.

Low capital investment

• Low benzene to acetone and Bz/PIPB ratios results in smaller reaction and distillation equipment
  Small catalyst volumes
• Low temperature, pressure, and non-corrosive conditions allows carbon steel construction
