A process for producing propylene is provided which includes directing an
ethylene stream from an ethylene reaction zone to a propylene reaction
zone; directing a butene stream to the propylene reaction zone; reacting
the ethylene stream with the butene stream in the propylene reaction zone
to produce a propylene reaction stream; and subjecting the propylene
reaction stream to a recovery operation to recover propylene. A processes
is also provided for producing an alkylaromatic by directing an ethylene
stream from a propylene reaction zone to an alkylaromatic reaction zone;
directing an aromatic stream to the alkylaromatic reaction zone; reacting
the ethylene stream with the aromatic stream in the alkylaromatic
reaction zone to produce an alkylaromatic reaction stream; and subjecting
the alkylaromatic reaction stream to a recovery operation to recover
alkylaromatics. A process for producing propylene and an alkylaromatic is
also provided.
