  • Process for controlling an ionic liquid catalyst regeneration using a conductivity measurement
    Patent number: 9981262
    Abstract: A process in which the conductivity of an ionic liquid catalyst used in a continuous reaction process is measured in order to determine the amount of conjunct polymer associated with the ionic liquid catalyst. The conductivity may be used to control: an amount of spent ionic liquid catalyst passed back to the reaction zone; an amount of spent ionic liquid catalyst passed to a regeneration zone; an amount of spent ionic liquid catalyst removed from the continuous reaction process; an amount of fresh ionic liquid catalyst passed to the reaction zone; an amount of regenerated ionic liquid catalyst passed to the reaction zone; or combinations thereof.
    Type: Grant

  • TRIALKYLPHOSPHONIUM IONIC LIQUIDS, METHODS OF MAKING, AND ALKYLATION PROCESSES USING TRIALKYLPHOSPHONIUM IONIC LIQUIDS
    Publication number: 20170348680
    Abstract: A trialkylphosphonium haloaluminate compound having a formula: where R1, R2, and R3 are the same or different and each is independently selected from C1 to C8 hydrocarbyl; and X is selected from F, Cl, Br, I, or combinations thereof is described. An ionic liquid catalyst composition incorporating the trialkylphosphonium haloaluminate compound, methods of making the trialkylphosphonium haloaluminate compound, and alkylation processes incorporating the trialkylphosphonium haloaluminate compound are also described.
