The present subject matter relates generally to methods for hydrocarbon conversion. More specifically, the present subject matter relates to methods for integrating reforming and dehydrocyclodimerization, which are both catalytic processes. While dehydrocyclodimerization takes two or more molecules of a light aliphatic hydrocarbon, such as propane or propylene, to form a product aromatic hydrocarbon and hydrogen, platforming takes C6 and higher carbon number reactants, primarily paraffins and naphthenes, to convert to aromatics and hydrogen. This integration enables an opportunity to recombine the light aliphatic hydrocarbon from the platforming process into a more desirable aromatics species. |
