The invention relates to a process for producing LPG and BTX, comprising a) subjecting a mixed hydrocarbon stream to first hydrocracking in the presence of a first hydrocracking catalyst to produce a first hydrocracking product stream; b) separating the first hydrocracking product stream to provide at least a light hydrocarbon stream comprising at least C2 and C3 hydrocarbons, a middle hydrocarbon stream consisting of C4 and/or C5 hydrocarbons and a heavy hydrocarbon stream comprising at least C6+ hydrocarbons and c) subjecting the heavy hydrocarbon stream to second hydrocracking in the presence of a second hydrocracking catalyst to produce a second hydrocracking product stream comprising BTX, wherein the second hydrocracking is more severe than the first hydrocracking, d) wherein at least part of the middle hydrocarbon stream is subjected to C4 hydrocracking optimized for converting C4 hydrocarbons into C3 hydrocarbons in the presence of a C4 hydrocracking catalyst to produce a C4 hydrocracking product stream.

Process for producing LPG and BTX

The present invention relates to a process for producing LPG and BTX from a mixed feedstream comprising C5-C12 hydrocarbons by contacting said feedstream in the presence of hydrogen with a first hydrocracking catalyst and contacting the thus obtained first hydrocracked product in the presence of hydrogen with a second hydrocracking catalyst to produce a second hydrocracked product stream comprising LPG and BTX.

Process for producing LPG and BTX from mixed hydrocarbons feed

The present invention relates to a process for combined hydrodesulfurization and hydrocracking of a heavy hydrocarbon feed comprising contacting the hydrocarbon feed in the presence of hydrogen with a catalyst comprising a mixture of a solid acid catalyst and a hydrodesulfurization catalyst.

Process for combined hydrodesulfurization and hydrocracking of heavy hydrocarbons

A process for hydrocracking 2,4-dimethylpentane and/or 2,2,3-trimethylbutane can comprise: contacting a hydrocracking feed stream in the presence of hydrogen with a hydrocracking catalyst, wherein the hydrocracking feed stream comprises at least 0.5 wt % of 2,4-dimethylpentane and/or 2,2,3-trimethylbutane, based upon a total weight of the hydrocracking feed stream; and wherein the hydrocracking catalyst comprises a medium pore zeolite having a pore size of 5-6 A and a silica to alumina molar ratio of 20-75; preferably the hydrocracking catalyst comprises a medium pore zeolite having a pore size of 5-6 A and a silica to alumina molar ratio of 20-75 and a large pore zeolite having a pore size of 6-8 A and a silica to alumina molar ratio of 10-80, wherein the hydrogenation metal is deposited on the medium pore zeolite and the large pore zeolite.
