Abstract
The invention provides a process for hydrotreating an organic feedstock containing a halogenated component and contaminated with distillable oxygen compounds, and/or distillable nitrogen compounds having boiling points lower than the halogenated compounds by means of removing the distillable oxygen compounds and distillable nitrogen compounds with a fractionation zone and then contacting the resulting organic feedstock having a reduced concentration of distillable oxygen and nitrogen compounds and a gaseous recycle stream containing hydrogen with a hydrogenation catalyst in a hydrogenation reaction zone to produce an anhydrous liquid stream comprising hydrogenated hydrocarbonaceous compounds having a reduced concentration of organic halide and a hydrogen halide compound. The resulting effluent from the hydrogenation zone is optionally separated to produce a hydrogenated hydrocarbonaceous stream having a reduced level of halogen and an anhydrous stream comprising a hydrogen halide compound.
