Detect alkylation unit problems before they escalate into safety and environmental incidents.

ECI provides instrumentation, valves, regulators, safety systems, and field services for alkylation units throughout the refining industry. Whether operating a hydrofluoric acid (HF) alkylation unit, sulfuric acid alkylation unit (SAAU), or modern alky unit refinery process, operators depend on accurate flow, pressure, and isolation control to maintain safety, environmental compliance, and production performance.

What Is an Alkylation Unit?

An alkylation unit converts light olefins and isobutane into high-octane alkylate used in gasoline blending. Alkylation plants typically utilize either hydrofluoric acid (HF) alkylation or sulfuric acid alkylation technology to maximize fuel production while meeting modern performance and emissions requirements.

We offer flow and pressure control technologies that deliver the accuracy, reliability, and performance that ensures safe and optimal performance of an alkylation unit.

The superior performance of Monel® constructed Emerson FisherTM valves for accumulated acid and acid feed are further enhanced with our applied technology and solutions to prevent the accidental leakage of hydrofluoric acid.
