Production of high octane gasoline
This patent describes a process for the production of a high octane gasoline having an octane number not less than 87 (RON+0), from a substantially dealkylated hydrocarbon feedstock comprising not less than 50 vol % aromatic content, an API gravity between 5 and 25, a nitrogen content between 50 and 650 ppm, and a hydrogen content between 8.9 and 12.5 wt %, comprising: hydrotreating the substantially dealkylated feedstock in the presence of a hydrotreating catalyst comprising a hydrogenation/dehydrogenation metal on a support, under hydrotreating conditions, including a pressure not greater than 1200 psig, LHSV between 0.25 and 5, temperature between 600/sup 0/ and 800/sup 0/F; contacting the hydrotreated substantially dealkylated feedstock with a crystalline silicate zeolite having a Constraint Index less than 2, the contacting being conducted at hydrogen partial pressure between 600 and 1000 psi, temperatures not less than 700/sup 0/F, LHSV between 0.25 and 2.5, and a conversion per pass to 385/sup 0/F end point gasoline no greater than 50% to form a product comprising a 385/sup 0/F end point gasoline and an unconverted, upgraded bottom fraction; and passing the unconverted, upgraded bottom fraction to an FCC unit for further processing.
