Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016005297A1] The invention is directed to a process for producing BTX and LPG, comprising: a) contacting a feed stream comprising C5-C12 hydrocarbons in the presence of hydrogen with a hydrocracking catalyst in a hydrocracking reactor to produce a hydrocracking product stream comprising hydrogen, methane, LPG and BTX, b) separating the hydrocracking product stream into a first gas stream and a first liquid stream, c) separating the first gas stream to obtain a second gas stream comprising hydrogen and methane and a second liquid stream comprising LPG and BTX, wherein the separation is performed such that the second liquid stream is substantially free of hydrogen and methane, d) separating the second liquid stream into a third gas stream comprising LPG and a third liquid stream comprising BTX, wherein step (c) involves adding a part of the third liquid stream to the first gas stream to absorb the LPG in the first gas stream to obtain the second liquid stream or adding a part of the third liquid stream to a gas stream separated from the first gas stream to absorb the LPG in said gas stream separated from the first gas stream to obtain the second liquid stream.
