Dilchill [Dilute, chill] A process for dewaxing petroleum by controlled crystallization, with cooling accomplished by the incremental addition of a cold solvent. Developed by Exxon Research Engineering Company. 

ENSORB [ExxoN adSORBtion] A process for separating linear from branched hydrocarbons, using a zeolite molecular sieve. The adsorbed gases are desorbed using ammonia. It operates in a cyclic, not a continuous, mode. Developed by Exxon Research Engineering Company, and used by that company on a large scale at the Exxon refinery in Baytown, TX. Asher, W. J., Campbell, M. L., Epperly, W. R., and Robertson, J. LHydrocarbon Process., 1969, 48(1), 134. 

EXOL N Also called EXOL N Extraction. A solvent extraction process for purifying feedstocks for making lubricating oil. The solvent is N-methyl pyrrolidone. Developed and licensed by Exxon Research Engineering Compary. Seventeen units had been installed by 1994. 

Exxon Donor Solvent Also known as EDS. A coal liquifaction process in which coal in solution in tetrahydronaphthalene is hydrogenated, using a cobalt/molybdenum/alumina catalyst. So-called because the hydrogen is donated by the tetrahydronaphthalene to the coal. Developed from the Pott-Broche process. Piloted by Exxon Research Engineering Company in the 1970s and operated at 250 ton/day in the Exxon refinery in Baytown, TX, from 1980 to 1982. 

Flexicracking A version of the FCC process developed by Exxon Research Engineering Company. Seventeen units were operating in 1996. 

FLUID COKING A noncatalytic, thermal process for converting bitumen and coal liquids to lighter hydrocarbon fluids and gases. Developed by the Exxon Research Engineering Company and used commercially since 1954. See also FLEXICOKING.
