Abstract
A method for processing a hydrocarbon-containing mixture includes the steps of: I) separating the hydrocarbon-containing mixture into a light fraction and a heavy fraction; II) reacting the light fraction from step I) in an aromatization unit and separating the resulting reaction product into a Ccomponent and a Ccomponent; III) reacting the heavy fraction from step I) and optionally the Ccomponent from step II) in an aromatics conversion unit and separating the resulting reaction product into a Ccomponent, a C-Ccomponent, a Ccomponent, and a Ccomponent; and IV) optionally, steam cracking or catalytic cracking one or both of the Ccomponent from step II) and the Ccomponent from step III). The method can convert low-value hydrocarbon mixtures into Caromatic hydrocarbons and cracking raw materials, and improve the product value. A system for practicing this method is also provided.
