ABSTRACT:
A process to isomerize at least one normal or mono-methyl-branched alkane to form at least one multi-methyl-branched alkane has been developed. At least one normal or mono-methyl-branched is introduced to a reaction zone to form at least one multi-methyl-branched alkane. The reaction zone is located between a first and a second adsorption zone with the adsorption zones containing an adsorbent effective to selectively adsorb normal and mono-methyl-branched alkanes relative to multi-methyl-branched alkanes. A desorbent is introduced to the first adsorption zone and an effluent containing at least one multi-methyl-branched alkane is withdrawn from the second adsorption zone. After a period of time, the introduction of the desorbent is redirected to the second adsorption zone and concurrently the withdrawal of the effluent is moved to the first adsorption zone.
