Abstract

A liquid phase alkylation product from an alkylation reaction unit is introduced into a first heat-exchanger directly or after being pressurized with a pressure pump and heat-exchanged with a vapor phase stream from the column top of a high-pressure fractionating column n, then introduced into a second heat-exchanger and further heated to 100° C.-150° C., then introduced into the high-pressure fractionating column and subjected to fractionation at 2.0 MPa-4.0 MPa, the vapor phase stream from the column top of the high-pressure fractionating column is heat-exchanged with the liquid phase alkylation product to be separated, a liquid phase stream from the column bottom of the high-pressure fractionating column is introduced into a low-pressure fractionating column and subjected to fractionation under at 0.2 MPa-1.0 MPa, a low-carbon alkane is obtained from the column top of the low-pressure fractionating column n, and a liquid phase stream obtained from the column bottom of the low-pressure fractionating column is an alkylation oil product.
