Abstract

Methods of transporting hydrogen may include, at a first hydrocarbon processing facility, hydrogenating a C9+ aromatic compounds-containing stream to form a saturated cyclic C9+ containing effluent stream; transporting the saturated cyclic C9+ containing effluent stream to a second hydrocarbon processing facility; and at the second hydrocarbon processing facility, and passing the saturated cyclic C9+ containing effluent stream and a hydrotreated heavy naphtha stream to a catalytic reformer to form a reformate stream; and separating a hydrogen gas product stream from the reformate stream. The first hydrocarbon processing facility and the second hydrocarbon processing facility may be separated by at least 100 km. The methods for processing hydrogen may include hydrotreating a heavy naphtha stream and passing a saturated cyclic C9+ containing effluent stream and the hydrotreated heavy naphtha stream to a catalytic reformer to form a reformate stream comprising hydrogen gas; and separating hydrogen gas from the reformate stream.
