    Abstract: Processes and apparatuses for producing a C8 aromatic isomer product are provided. The apparatus comprises an isomerization unit to provide an isomerized stream. An isomerate stripper column is in communication with the isomerization unit to provide an isomerate stripper overhead stream comprising C6− hydrocarbons in an isomerate overhead line and an isomerate stripper bottoms stream in an isomerate bottoms line. A dividing wall naphthene splitter column is in communication with the isomerate bottoms line to provide an overhead naphthene splitter stream comprising the C8 naphthenes and C7 aromatic hydrocarbons in a naphthene splitter overhead line and a naphthene splitter sidedraw stream comprising C8 aromatic isomers in a naphthene splitter sidedraw line. An extractive distillation column is in communication with the naphthene splitter overhead line to provide a recycle feedstream comprising the C8 naphthenes in a recycle line and an extract stream comprising the C7 aromatic hydrocarbons in an extract line.

    Abstract: Processes and apparatuses for producing a C8 aromatic isomer product are provided. The process comprises introducing a reformate stream comprising aromatic hydrocarbons to a reformate splitter column to provide a plurality of streams. One or more streams comprising at least one stream from the plurality of streams is passed to a reformate upgrading unit to obtain an upgraded reformate stream. The upgraded reformate stream is passed to an aromatics stripper column to provide an aromatics stripper sidedraw stream comprising C8 aromatic hydrocarbons. The aromatics stripper sidedraw stream is passed to a xylene separation unit to provide the C8 aromatic isomer product and a raffinate product stream. At least a portion of the raffinate product stream is processed in a liquid phase isomerization unit to obtain an isomerized stream.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for processing hydrocarbons are provided. In one embodiment, a method for processing hydrocarbons includes fractionating a feed stock to form a C6-C10 naphtha stream and a C11+ hydrocarbon stream. The method reforms the C6-C10 naphtha stream. Further, the method cracks the C11+ hydrocarbon stream to form a stream of C6-C10 hydrocarbons and extracts aromatics from the stream of C6-C10 hydrocarbons to form an extract stream. The method includes combining the C6-C10 naphtha stream and the extract stream containing the aromatics. Also, the method includes processing the C6-C10 naphtha stream and the extract stream in an aromatics complex to form selected aromatic products. Further, the embodiment may include reforming raffinate streams.

    Abstract: Processes for increasing an octane value of a gasoline component by dehydrogenating a stream comprising C7 hydrocarbons and methylcyclohexane in a first dehydrogenation zone to form an intermediate dehydrogenation effluent, and then dehydrogenating the intermediate dehydrogenation effluent in a second dehydrogenation zone to form a C7 dehydrogenation effluent. The C7 dehydrogenation effluent has an increased olefins content compared to an olefins content of the intermediate dehydrogenation effluent. The first dehydrogenation zone is operated under conditions to convert methylcyclohexane to toluene and minimize cracking reactions. The intermediate dehydrogenation effluent may be heated before being passed to the second dehydrogenation zone.

    Abstract: A process for separating xylene from a feedstock in which the feedstock is separated into a xylene stream, a benzene rich stream and a light ends stream. Two separation zones may be utilized in which liquid from both is sent to a stabilization zone and the vapor from the stabilization zone is combined with a stream prior to the stream entering the second separation zone.
