C5/C6 isomerization is to make C5/C6 isoparaffin by isomerize normal-alkane through catalyst action.
C5/C6 isoparaffin are gasoline concoction of high octane number, aromatic free, no olefins and clean. With the introduction of the national concept of clean gasoline, the proportion of C5/C6 isomeric alkane in gasoline is increasing.
1, Adaptable raw material
