Integrated, energy efficient process for making detergent range alkylbenzenes, heavies coproduced during the alkylation of benzene with olefin using a solid, acidic catalyst are transalkylated. Spent benzene from regeneration of the solid, acidic catalyst used for alkylation provides at least about 50 percent of the benzene provided for the transalkylation. The integrated processes thus reduce the load on the benzene distillation assembly used in the alkylbenzene refining system.
