FIELD: petrochemical processes.
SUBSTANCE: simultaneous dehydrogenation of mixture containing alkyl and alkylaromatic hydrocarbons is followed by separating thus obtained dehydrogenated alkyl hydrocarbon and recycling it to alkylation unit. Dehydrogenation reactor-regenerator employs C2-C5-alkyl hydrocarbon as catalyst-transportation carrying medium.
EFFECT: increased process flexibility and extended choice of catalysts.
