Abstract
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a process for treating a diesel feedstock to convert diesel to component-paraffins includes hydrodesulfurizing and hydrodenitrogenizing the diesel feedstock to reduce a sulfur content of the diesel feedstock and a nitrogen content of the diesel feedstock; hydrocracking the hydrodesulfurized and hydrodenitrogenized diesel feedstock over a metal-containing diesel hydrocracking catalyst comprising at least one zeolite to produce a hydrocrackate fraction; separating the hydrocrackate fraction into a first stream enriched in n-paraffins and a second stream enriched in iso-paraffins and naphthenes; and reverse isomerizing at least a portion of the second stream over an isomerization catalyst to convert at least a portion of the iso-paraffins to n-paraffins, producing a reverse isomerate fraction.
