Abstract

High octane number motor fuel is produced by alkylating isobutane with an olefin to produce an alkylate separable into distinct low octane and high octane fractions, charging the low octane fraction to a fluidized catalytic cracking unit to generate more olefins which can be charged to the alkylation process to produce an increased quantity of high octane number alkylate.
