Abstract
Good design criteria, an excellent clean-up and the best knowledge with reg ard to the philosophy of operation allows a fast startup and a reduction of the time to reach the designed steady-state conditions in the alkylation u nits. Presented are the findings after starting-up three new alkylation uni ts as well as the difficulties encountered and their possible solutions.
