Abstract

A process for using sludge formed in the preparation of a high BN overbased alkylaryl sulfonate or overbased sulfurized alkylphenate, wherein the sludge is treated with an acidic reactant to convert large particles of the alkaline earth metal salt in the sludge into calcium sulfonate, then is reacted with an excess of alkaline earth base and either alkylaryl sulfonic acid or alkylphenol to produce a reaction product, which could be a low or high overbased alkylaryl sulfonate or overbased sulfurized alkylphenate.
