Abstract
A process for producing a middle distillate or a middle distillate blending component, comprising contacting a feed comprising an olefin, an isoparaffin, and less than 5 wt % oligomerized olefin, in an ionic liquid alkylation zone with an acidic haloaluminate ionic liquid, at alkylation conditions; and recovering an effluent comprising an alkylated product that has greater than 35 vol % C10+ and less than 1 vol % C55+. Also processes for producing a middle distillate by alkylating isobutane and butene in the presence of defined chloroaluminate ionic liquid catalysts, wherein a separating step separates the middle distillate and wherein the middle distillate is from 20 wt % or higher of the total alkylate product. Also a process for producing middle distillate with FC cracker feed comprising olefins. A separated middle distillate has greater than 30 vol % C10+, less than 1 vol % C55+, and a cloud point less than −50° C.
