Improved hydrocarbon dehydrocyclization process

In a process for the dehydrocyclization of a dehydrocyclizable hydrocarbon contained in a dehydrocyclization feed stream which comprises contacting said dehydrocyclizable hydrocarbon in a dehydrocyclization zone under dehydrocyclization conditions in the presence of a dehydrocyclization catalyst, th...

Zusammenfassung:In a process for the dehydrocyclization of a dehydrocyclizable hydrocarbon contained in a dehydrocyclization feed stream which comprises contacting said dehydrocyclizable hydrocarbon in a dehydrocyclization zone under dehydrocyclization conditions in the presence of a dehydrocyclization catalyst, the improvement comprises carrying out said dehydrocyclization process in the presence of a metal chloride additive in said dehydrocyclization feed stream, said metal chloride additive being present in an amount sufficient to inhibit deactivation of such dehydrocyclization catalyst.
