C9 Aromatics Alkylation Technology for Durene Production

To address the limitations of conventional physical methods for durene production—such as low capacity, poor product purity, and high safety risks—a novel C9 aromatics alkylation technology has been developed and industrialized. This innovation is based on elucidation of the reaction mechanism, development of catalytic materials, and design of key equipment.

Key Features & Benefits

Superior catalyst performance
High catalytic activity and stability, with excellent product selectivity.
Simplified process flow
Fixed-bed process with low equipment investment.
