MULTI-STAGE REFORMING PROCESS TO PRODUCE HIGH OCTANE GASOLINE

摘要

The present invention relates to a multistage reforming process to produce a high octane product. A naphtha boiling range feedstock is processed in a multi-stage reforming process, in which said process involves at least 1) a penultimate stage for reforming the naphtha feedstock to produce a penultimate effluent 2) a separation step for separating the penultimate effluent into at least an intermediate stream and a heavy stream based on boiling point and 3) a final stage for further reforming the intermediate stream.
