Process for upgrading a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock.

摘要

Process for upgrading a hydrocarbonaceous feedstock substantially boiling in the gasoline range, which process comprises: a) subjecting the feedstock to a separation treatment and recovering therefrom a first hydrocarbon feed stream comprising C6 and smaller hydrocarbons and a second hydrocarbon feed stream comprising C6 and greater hydrocarbons; b) subjecting at least part of the second hydrocarbon feed stream to a separation treatment wherein normal paraffins and optionally mono-isoparaffins are separated from di-isoparaffins; c) recovering therefrom a first separation effluent stream comprising normal paraffins and optionally mono-isoparaffins and a second separation effluent stream comprising di-isoparaffins; d) subjecting at least part of the first separation effluent stream to a reforming step to produce a reformate; and e) subjecting at least part of the reformate obtained to a hydrogenation step.
