Polymer Gasoline: Propylene from Cracked Gas Polymerised over Phosphoric Acid (Gulf, US 3,071,535)
The propylene in a refinery's cracked gas can be joined into gasoline-sized molecules over a phosphoric acid catalyst. The result is an olefinic polymer gasoline of high research octane but high sensitivity, so Gulf blends it into regular grade only.
Result (Gulf's example, barrels per day): from 4,851 of C3 fractions, 1,645 of polymer gasoline; the propane and unreacted gas, 1,552 as fuel-oil equivalent, go to fuel.

Collect the C3 streams
Collect the C3 streams
Gather the olefinic C3 fractions of the refinery: in Gulf's example 4,230 barrels a day from the catalytic cracker and 621 from the coker.

Polymerise over phosphoric acid
Polymerise over phosphoric acid
Contact the C3 stream with a polymerisation catalyst such as phosphoric acid, which joins the propylene into olefinic polymer gasoline. Gulf gives no temperature or pressure. Ours: a solid phosphoric acid catalyst in a pressure reactor.

Keep it for regular grade
Keep it for regular grade
Because its octane sensitivity is rather high, the polymer gasoline is blended into regular-grade petrol, not premium.
