Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A process for heating a feed stream to an isomerization zone by passing the feed stream though heat exchangers and heating the feeds stream with reactor effluent from the isomerization zone. The effluent from the last reactor is passed to a stabilization column and then a separation column, preferably without heating the feed stream. The separation column may also be heated with effluent from a reactor in the isomerization zone.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A process for controlling a temperature of a feed stream passed to an isomerization zone; the process comprising: combining a feed stream with a stream from a first separation column; heating the feed stream in a first heat exchanger; heating the feed stream in a second heat exchanger; heating the feed stream in a third heat exchanger; heating the feed stream in a heating zone; passing the feed stream to the isomerization zone comprising a pluralit…
