Abstract
This disclosure relates to a process for producing diesel with reduced levels of sulfur. The process involves (a) providing a diesel feed comprising a diesel having a sulfur content in the range of about 20 to about 10,000 wppm; (b) feeding the diesel feed and a hydrogen rich gas to a reaction zone comprising a hydrotreating catalyst to produce a hydrotreated diesel effluent comprising diesel and hydrogen sulfide; and (c) removing hydrogen sulfide from the hydrotreated diesel effluent to produce a diesel product having a sulfur content no more than about 100 wppm; wherein hydrogen consumption in the reaction zone is in the range of about −150 to about 150 scf/bbl.
