2008 Question and Technology Forum Gasoline Processes - 5 ConocoPhillips, now UOP, Split Olefin Feed Technology (SOFTTM), and the project includes voluntary incorporation of a modified acid capability. ConocoPhillips ReVAP® technology was selected for the project. As most of you are probably aware, this technology was later acquired by UOP.
