Zusammenfassung:In a process for the start-up of a hydrodesulfurization section, comprising the steps of providing a natural gas feed, passing the natural gas feed through the waste heat section of a reformer, thereby heating the natural gas feed, and passing the heated natural gas feed through a hydrodesulfurization section, thereby heating the hydrodesulfurization section while producing a desulfurized natural gas stream, a part of the desulfurized natural gas stream is provided as fuel for the reformer, while the remainder of the desulfurized natural gas is recycled to at least one point upstream the waste heat section.
