Abstract
A two stage catalytic reforming process. The first stage is comprised of two separate fixed-bed reforming units each comprised of one or more serially connected fixed-bed reforming zones. The second stage is comprised of one or more moving-bed reforming zones with continual catalyst regeneration. A hydrogen-rich gaseous stream is separated after each fixed-bed unit and a portion is recycled to the respective fixed-bed reforming zones.
