  • Isomerization and adsorption process with benzene saturation
    Patent number: 5453552
    Abstract: An advantageous integration of benzene saturation for a light paraffin containing feedstock in a light paraffin isomerization and adsorption system maintains isomerization conversion while reducing benzene levels. The process improves the efficiency of the isomerization and saturation zones by saturating benzene from a light paraffin containing stream and adsorbing normal hydrocarbons from the saturation zone effluent stream together with normal hydrocarbons from an isomerization zone effluent. The isomerization zone effluent comprises converted hydrocarbons from a light paraffin containing feedstream having a relatively low benzene concentration.
