Civil/Environmental

The final step in linear alkylbenzene distillation creates two major streams: the market specification output and the heavy alkylate bottom. Do You have any idea of the treatment methods adopted for this stream? Do we have any possibility to recover materials from the heavy alkylate bottom, inside or outside battery limits? Got any experience based on site servicing the UOP process or others?
Thanks in advance and regards
